The Senate’s opposition leader is like “someone should do something about all this lawlessness” and some 55 year old mom in Minnesota who hasn’t voted since 2012 is like “the evildoers will be vanquished with the righteousness of a million patriots!!” It’s great.

Y'all love a blue #bird, so here is some more gratuitous Abyssinian Roller content, coming back to its favorite perch with a tasty bug.

I hate living in the Asshole Cinematic Universe. “So the King of Pedophiles got the 4chan guy to make the Nazi board and that’s why the host of Celebrity Apprentice was made immune to laws by the Tradcath Illuminati. This has something to do with video game journalism, maybe?” Fuck off.

Wake up, workers of the world, a new second-person plural pronoun dropped.

The Epstein emails should really end the debate over whether society should have billionaires. "Do you want there to be a class of people so powerful they can fuck your kids and no one will even try to do anything" seems like an easy sell if everyone in politics wasn't trying to get on their payroll

From the Epstein documents: The FBI having to Google where Wisconsin is???

I very much love the casual contempt of: < deal withthis. thanyou > No punctuation, sloppy spacing. This pathetic dweeb isn't even worth five properly typed words. lol Every Elon Musk statement or tweet should get this same level of "whatever fuck you I don't care" that's on display here.

Come on. What are we even doing here?

the venn diagram of people who disparage the humanities and people who squawk about "western culture" and "the classics" is almost a circle and to square that circle: they believe the humanities should be a prestige hobby for ivory tower dilettantes while the rest of us toil as slaves or worse

Check out Werner Herzog with a kickass dad mustache in the early 90s.

This is absolutely a d12 encounter table for an amazing D&D dungeon.

Check it out, a vegan spider! Although, like most vegans, Bagheera kiplingi will "occasionally steal ant larvae from passing worker ants for food" when the opportunity arises.

Good job Stephen Miller, you triggered the metamorphosis of this man from annoying Will Stancil into Minnesotan Simo Häyhä.

Oh man, that was fun. I especially loved this guy, the scribe:

every online community is now like hi and welcome to r/transformers, this week we're talking about what the best version of Devastator is to celebrate the release of the Mixmaster, if you work for ICE kill yourself, and a sneak peek at the new creative team on the Transformers series from Skybound!

Speaking as a Wisconsinite, the next time a Minnesotan cares what a goddamn Mississippi governor says about being an American will be the FIRST FUCKING TIME it's ever happened. We won a war about that.

More evidence of panic. This pathetic statement ("I'm sending someone new to town because shit's fucked") is as close to an apology that Donald Trump has ever made.

The best thing in the entire universe right now is that all evidence shows Donald Trump to be a miserable hemorrhoid of a man, a shitdemon who is incapable of feeling joy. Nothing brings him peace or happiness.

All of the NFL meme subreddits are trashing ICE. Especially the NFC North (home of the Minnesota Vikings and their rivals), which has been spitting fire the last two days. reddit.com/r/NFCNorthMemeWar All of the "stick to sports" comments are getting buried.

Now watching, The Death of Stalin.

One thing that irks me: people keep calling the folks on the streets in Minneapolis protestors. They are not generally there to protest, they are there to observe and document. This is the product of organizing and mutual aid. It is telling that these acts of citizenship are seen as protest!

Passive voice is for assholes and cowards.

Old football coach advice has been working well for me: Only hit what you can see. The world is chaos and we want to do all of the things to make it a better place. Too much is happening; we can find ourselves overextended, chasing ghosts. Focus on that one thing in front of you and do that well.

Whatever doesn't kill you makes you older

“Excuse me, do you have these pants in a 58” x 19”?

it's why even at our worst, I can't hate this country. so many of us are awful. the people in power are so often awful. but we are a 287 different cultures in a trench coat and when those of us who love being in that trench coat with the gang rise up, we are fucking amazing.

Them, but also more directly: 285 people out of 535 could end all this (218 + 67). That fact should not be treated as an "oh they'll never do it" shrug, as if they don't have agency. They should be hammered constantly as traitors and cowards every day they don't.

I suppose in the future what's happening now may become known as "The Battle of Minneapolis," but I think--hope--it's historic precisely because it's not that. Fascism wants a fight. Instead, Minneapolis's main response is mutual aid. Struggle, in a deeper sense of the term than fascism can imagine.

Establishing the run is especially important when you don't have a quarterback, and (looking at congressional Dems) we absolutely do not have one right now. There is no one who can hero-ball us to victory.

Charlie Kirk is the fascist podcaster version of Tupac. He has thousands of endorsements already recorded for his family to publish over the next couple of decades.

Ugh it's too late to go to bed early

The dumb He-Man movie hype made me remember I made this a million years ago, like in LiveJournal days...

Serious question: if the president had a stroke and was severely intellectually incapacitated, would anyone know?
