Eugene Oregon has a goddam nest of Sinclair stations, about half dozen of those fascist complicit teevee shitpots.

KVAL — 13 is a Sinclair tv station in Eugene, Oregon monitor the sponsors of their news & call those local businesses. tell them: "quit advertising on KVAL or face a boycott"

Well, there it is. Sinclair is digging in for a fight, so please help push back -- find stations in your area, watch their local news to see what ads they run, then write those advertisers to tell them you're boycotting as long as they're on a Sinclair station. List here: sbgi.net/tv-stations/

Things today's White House autism announcement did not do: -Discuss strategies to increase supports and services for autistic people/families -Highlight why autistic people and families deserve respect, not pity or fear -Endorse one speck of autism research that is not dangerous pseudoscience

Their tough guy act sure seems to disappear anytime the rest of us stick together and tell them to get fucked.

I am not actually watching the autism press conference, but just the clips are giving me horrible 2020 “Dear God can our health possibly be in the hands of this idiot??!” flashbacks.

The ongoing complicity of the corporate media in this vulgar spectacle, this fascistic cult, is just ridiculous and disheartening. That this country could so easily and quickly slip into such coarse and obvious deception, such a perverse politics of corpse-dragging is quite incredible.

Really great essay from @jamellebouie.net “If the aim of one faction is to dominate all the others … then discussion is less useful than a willingness to defend liberal society in the face of tyranny and despotism.” (Gift link) www.nytimes.com/2025/09/20/o...

I would like Never Trump Republicans to demand that George W. Bush appear and speak up for democracy in this country. Why do ppl always ask Obama to do things and “where is Kamala”? Where is the 43rd President of the United States while democracy crashes & burns. This is the party he led. 1/

This one's going out to Bob Iger: www.youtube.com/watch?v=mONT...

so, i hear, after almost a hundred years, *paperclips* are "coming back into fashion" antifascist fashion.

i've heard Vanity Fair hates the west coast.

so generous of the New York Liberty, giving the Phoenix Mercury all those offensive rebounds! They just seem to freeze while the ball is bouncing around up there on the rim. Such nice people. And they haven't even taken one for themselves!

I honestly think that Russia and China don't care about whatever the discourse is online. Whatever damage they needed to do was done in the last several elections. But 2016 online political spaces? You could practically time it when people were clocking in, in Moldavia and St. Petersburg.

someone moaning, crying, as dawn begins breaking.

wee hours here in Oregon, i think my cat woke me up. stream of consciousness image of the evil 6 us supreme court justices floating down a dangerously swollen river in a dumpster full of garbage, on fire. ten-year-old white boy grins fading fast on those 5 ol' boy "reservoirs of legal wisdom."

because trump is stupid, he invents antifa, and he never expects the White Rose. the WR will bring him down, yes, they will. i've been told they are e v e r y w h e r e wha ah ah.

no matter how much like putin's, erdogan's, and orban's, our fascist gov't becomes, it will still be the stupidest and most incompetent fascist gov't, just a pure caca-ocracy. prove me wrong.

trump take jimmy kimmel.

Cal Raleigh passes Mickey Mantle for the most HRs in a season from a switch hitter with his 55th

ned is exactly right. the challenge is reconnecting the democratic party to a mass constituency and building real affinity between voters and the party. it would be more worthwhole to put $10 million into piloting democratic clubs and associated newspapers bsky.app/profile/resn...

we gonna de-ICE with the salt of the earth

Monarez: "He did not have any data or science to point to. In fact, we got into an exchange where I suggested I would be open to changing childhood vaccine schedules if the evidence or science were supportive. He responded there was no science or evidence associated w/the childhood vaccine schedule"

i'm only on page 12, and i don't know if i can make it, but you ain't a REAL MAN if you don't read the entire 85 pages of this shit: storage.courtlistener.com/recap/gov.us...

from 02 Sep 2025 — until these goddam criminals and fascists and their crime spree is ended, and we take back this country for We, the People, take the power from these cruel and ignorant bullies, and bring them to justice:

morning thought: when We the People, rise up to save our democracy with enough of our strength & power, with enough of our desire that "all people are created equal," & with enough of our passion for truth & justice, we are going to throw off these cruel, crooked & criminal bullies & free ourselves.

"Israel has committed genocide against Palestinians in the Gaza Strip, the UN Independent International Commission of Inquiry on the Occupied Palestinian Territory, including East Jerusalem, and Israel said in a new report today."

didn't really expect Klein to dig so deep. and i'm pretty sure he aint gonna find Gandhi down there.

i am lasting mere seconds on this site today. & regretting those. "it's not *you*. it's *me*."

U.S. foreign policy is much easier to understand once you accept that the main "grand strategy" of the Trump administration is straight-up kleptocracy.

Valkyries need a run. Lynx are locked in.

a sunday brunch romance (well, it's more or less a political cartoon.) Picture a world where saintly rush limbaugh, floating on a cloud and strumming a harp, looks down and smiles benevolently at the upcoming sanctification of saintly charlie kirk. that's pretty much maga world.

In order to defeat the threat of communist indoctrination running rampant in places like the Utah technical college attended by Tyler Robinson, the right has decided that they need to follow the example of Castro, Mao, and Stalin…but this time in order to PREVENT indoctrination. Got it?

morning reads on CJR: of the battles within CBS as it undergoes neo-Nazification, American-style. cool cool cool

I'll have more on this in the newsletter tonight, but it's a truly dark sign of the times that this isn't a front page story: the Trump administration has officially said it believes birth control is abortion!

I know everyone is consumed with other news, but this is a big fucking deal: The Trump administration says that IUDs and the Pill are actually abortions. Here's what USAID told the NYT about the $10m in birth control they plan to destroy. www.nytimes.com/2025/09/11/h...

The interests of suspects in not having a confession beaten out of them is ultimately an interest in evading the law, which is not an especially weighty interest.

Are you telling me these people are malicious *and* incompetent? Well, I never

The murder of Charlie Kirk deferred the Epstein drumbeat for about 3 days. Not likely to defer 3 more. & with Epstein drumbeat, the moans of approaching economic catastrophe grow. trump & co, corporate media, various leeches on the maga populace, all gonna need to open up another can of spectacle.

do you mean, like, into policy? no was he going to protests or something? no then what kind of politics do you mean? oh, you know the ones

My verdict: Peach season was very disappointing. The taste of every peach seemed to be diminished from past seasons. Also, avocados were sub-par. And i began worrying about access to quality produce in the future, of all kinds. (And i live right in the middle of the Willamette Valley.)
