A very happy Krapusnacht to all those observing.

Some may remember our discussions pre-Trump 2.0, that predicted a second term would destroy the post-war order. That there would be no safe place to run to because they intend to carve up the globe. We are still ground zero. As goes America, so goes the globe. Do not give up.

The amount of crumbling old white men who MISUSE their MD degree makes me so angry. Their bullshit system made sure that I could never earn an MD myself, but they’ll use theirs in positions of power to KILL PEOPLE How about first DO NO HARM Nobody remembers what an oath is anymore, apparently

The movie Idiocracy vastly underestimated both how stupid we would get and how quickly it would happen.

The headline, the main takeaway from a European viewpoint is this: The transatlantic relationship as we know it is over. Yes, we kinda knew this. But this is now official US White House policy. Not a sppech, not a statement. The West as it used to be no longer exists.

Are we shocked! 🙄🤬 Of course they will cheat! How could anyone think otherwise. 🤦‍♀️

FLORIDA — Woman in scrubs: “I’m a U.S. citizen! Why are you doing this to me??”

Spotify has laid off thousands in recent years, while reportedly paying artists $0.003 per stream. Spotify profits rose 28% in Q3. Its CEO is worth $9.8 billion. It's making money off ICE recruitment ads. Don't you think it's time put a wrap on corporate greed and exploitation?

Clearing the way for criminals

When an institution loses the trust & confidence of the people, the answer to this question no longer matters. Might they use it to distract? Might they weaponize truth? Might they they use to hurt their enemies? The answer is yes. With delegitimized institutions, corpos & oligarchs can run amok.

NEW: Jimmie Duncan spent 27 years on death row, convicted in part based on evidence experts now consider to be junk science. But even after the overturning of his murder conviction and his release on bail, Louisiana still wants to execute him. By @richardawebster.bsky.social, w/ @veritenews.org

He was known as Disaster Dan, the hero of every sea story he ever told.

I guess the UN relies solely on TikTok when it accuses a nation of genocide. Same woman who voted for the Iraq war, patriot act, and waited until 2014 to support gay rights. She’s leaps and bounds better than Trump but we also need to be clear on how we got here. There’s a reason she drew backlash.

I honestly don’t care if they’re citizens or not. Rights are not granted by governments and we hold these truths to be self-evident.

lol

Who wore it better?

We are under the thumb of a man with kingly immunity who now believes the only point to power is using it.

Last night, the sky over Alaska turned into a cosmic vortex… A massive swirl of purple and pink auroras lit up the frozen landscape — a formation so rare that even long-time skywatchers said they’d never seen anything like it. Captured by a local photographer during an intense geomagnetic storm.

Great! This mirrors the outcome of the Castanon-Nava settlement in Chicago. However, as we've seen in that case, compliance will be a serious issue.

Don't give him any ideas . . .

I'm so worried about my Somali friends, neighbors and colleagues. I feel nauseous. I hate these fu*king fascists. I hate them.

The City of SF is suing 10 makers of ultra processed foods, citing negative impacts on individual and community health. We hope this improves consumer education and access to higher quality, healthier foods across the city. We’ll be watching to see how this fares in the courts.

It's that giving time of year again, so this is a reminder that no matter how they try to dress it up, the Salvation Army is not a charity.

Judge Andrew Napolitano, Princeton Class of 1972, weighs in on Pete Hegseth, Princeton Class of 2003; calls his actions a war crime:

Pete Hegseth says he’s going to court-martial me for saying the same exact thing he said 9 years ago. What changed for Pete? Well to start, he spends all day thinking about how he can suck up to Trump. When Trump says jump, he says how high.

Just when I think this timeline cannot possibly get any more idiotic or gross, I see something like this…

Good Morning Tennessee, Please Get Out And Vote For Aftyn Behn Today,If You Are Unhappy With The Direction of America 🇺🇸.......

Throughout my life, we looked out into the world at petty, laughable regimes just like this one and judged the people for not rising up to overthrow their tyrant. #AmericanExceptionlism was always insular naïveté cloaked as WW2 nostalgia, propped up by biblical verse, & dolled up by liberal ideals.

My take on Trump’s war crimes in the Caribbean. They want you to make their cruelty your cruelty. youtu.be/od5ksY5R5ks

Peaky Blinders Killing Eve Slow Horses Down Cemetery Road I’m beginning to think the UK doesn’t think very highly of its intelligence service.

What Would Ollie North Do? Don’t worry, Frank. You do some time, get your pardon, then maybe a land a weekend spot on Newsmax complaining about how you’re axshully a real patriot and the godless liberals fucked you over. #ToTheKing #WWOND Honorable mention: #AllenWest

Yep. They all do.

the military should take a clear message here: they will order you to do illegal things and then throw you directly under the bus if it becomes a problem not that admiral bradley here does not deserve to be in jail, he absolutely does but hegseth should go with him

Never forget that people were killed so that Donald Trump could fake an assassination attempt
