Have been flipping through These Fists Break Bricks and every few pages there’s a poster that goes hard in a way i didn’t even realize was possible

Have had hiccups for most of the day, anyone know how i can get hold of Jordan Peterson? I need the hook-up for that induced coma thing.

I'm sorry ma'am, but your son perished on Kharg Island in a valiant effort to create Wii Bowling meme videos for the White House X account. In the face of danger, he was not cringe; he was based to his last breath. Please have this commemorative Epic Fury challenge coin. Yes that's Punisher, ma'am

“direct your anger at trump not the democrats” buddy you are severely underestimating the amount of anger i have available to me

Sometimes living in the evil death country feels pretty bad

New — I spoke to eight trans people in Kansas about the new state law that invalidated their driver’s licenses overnight, what’s it’s like to live there right now, plus details of two DMV emails exclusively obtained by The Handbasket that shed light on the law’s chaotic and cruel rollout:

Hmmmm

Having a conversation about AI and thinking about this Orwell essay for no reason in particular

finally, the ICE reform we’ve been waiting for: no masks unless you really want to wear them

I think about this one more and more every year.

The newest video shows very clearly that they attacked him for coming to an aid of a woman that the agents pushed, and then executed him while he was immobilized. Everything the government has said, like with Good, has been a complete lie.

This video shows Donald Trump’s lawless federal agents again out of control. The Senate cannot vote to keep funding this. Every single agent complicit in these horrors should be put on trial at the state level for real accountability.

I spent most of my teenage years trying to be an Adult who looked at things from all sides and didn’t default to some simplistic interpretation of every issue. But forgive me, i was immature, i understand now that the bad guys need to go in the hole!

there's this back-and-forth where people get mad about these posts, and then people are like "she's a senator, do you want her to get arrested?" and the answer is yes, you should actually be getting pepper sprayed and detained right now, that is your job. not the one you signed up for but too bad.

I’m the one in the brown hat. What you might not see is the victim in the car. His feet are pointing out the open car door. An agent is sitting on one of his legs. He’s only wearing crocs. Bystanders found his legal work visa in his abandoned car. #AbolishICE

A 6-year-old just lost his mother. A woman was shot in the face in front of her wife. The swift, lockstep attempt to dehumanize and villainize Renee Nicole Good might be the most depraved thing we've seen yet from these ghouls and their supporters. These people are utterly fucking dead inside.

As you evaluate this from Kristi Noem, remember that when a federal agent shot a woman in Chicago last year, DHS's initial version of events was full of lies that fell apart under subsequent scrutiny: newrepublic.com/article/2019...

It appears ICE murdered someone in cold blood today and their plan is — per usual — to create a fog of lies so the killer does not face justice. We simply can't let that happen. The shooter has to be arrested and so does Bovino. They can't just kill people on the street.

MPR playing an eye witness account right now of ICE shooting directly through the windshield at her face and not giving her medical care for 10 minutes.

"Maduro is a brutal authoritarian dictator," I wisely intone, as the corrupt demented paedophile US President violating Constitutional Law while operating a gestapo and concentration camps illegally arrests a foreign leader on charges which read like they were written on a paper placemat in crayon.

What’s great is that I’m 99% sure that this would not have happened under Kamala but the messaging from people like Jeffries will be “actually maybe it would have but better?”

Sometimes living in the evil death country feels pretty bad

I remember the phrase "they can't be allowed to melt back into society" re: the de-Baathification of Iraq after the war there. Like everything about that experience, the attempt was cynical, stupid, and botched. But there really should be a plan about what we do with guys like these in the future.

I bring my cousin Arthur McBride to the Christmas morning walk that the sergeant, corporal and their drummer don’t really like

if you are a trans teen right now, you do not have the lifetime of experience with the united states federal legislative branch to cope with “this will *probably* die in the senate” on top of the rest of your life and that right there feels like a fucking flavor of abuse at scale.

Feeling pretty smart today, had been wondering where my hat had gotten to, turns out i left in in the car several weeks ago. Under the hood, to be specific.

ICE raided a James Beard award winning restaurant & because the chef/owner was prepared, left emptyhanded:

Great culture can save lives. Literally. Amazing letter in today’s @thetimes.com about Tom Stoppard

Arcadia is one of those works of art that i can’t believe is real, it’s so perfectly constructed, with all these elements balanced just so, and yet it doesn’t feel like a machine, it’s deeply emotional and heartbreaking. Have been so grateful to see it performed.

Hell yeah, thanks Jerome

Actually i escape from the flesh prison that is my body on a regular basis, skill issue imo

I sure wish that the leaders of our glorious opposition party would experience some fraction of the pain and suffering and violence that their choices lead to. And to be clear i mean that in an emotional, non-physical way. But also

Anyone remember the shutdown in like 2013, when it started affecting the Acela corridor trains that Important Donors relied on? And then Congress rushed back into session to make sure they were fully funded? Idk why i’m thinking about this.

Imagine coming off an incredible Election Day mandate from coast to coast and going 'you know what voters want? to be completely sold out by a bunch of craven cowards too pathetic to hold the line against a bunch of fucking weirdos'

I fully believe in the corporate death penalty and believe we would be a better world if OpenAI lost its corporate charter and was forcibly dissolved. www.cnn.com/2025/11/06/u...

People fucking hate this guy. They fucking hate ICE. They fucking hate how much power he has. He is at 63% overall disapproval to 37% approval. That's lower than their poll after January 6th. And this poll was done before he started intentionally starving people. I wish our media would reflect this.

Reporters are expecting cannibalism to begin in the upper decks around the 23rd inning

One day this game’s gonna end

Every few years i remember learning of the Imperial Viennese Glaucoma Ball and that phrase stays in my head for days on end.

Back in 2017 i pitched The Stranger on an essay inspired by this short story, about how the Mariners’ ongoing futility was the only thing keeping the world from utter collapse.

The ALCS

DHS just got caught telling multiple lies about federal agents shooting a US citizen multiple times newrepublic.com/article/2019...

maybe the Mariners, like me, read a short story called "The Last Pennant Before Armageddon" at a formative age.

I imagine if you’re one of the thieves you might subconsciously want to get caught just to have the coolest possible reply to “what are you in for?”

At some point i think there needs to be a Christmas truce situation where the teams chill out and play soccer for a little while

One day this game’s gonna end

Have the sinking feeling that “nothing bad can happen, it can only good happen” is going to linger in my brain longer than treasured moments with loved ones

Things may seem grim now, but don’t worry, the pendulum will swing back, soon enough President Carlson will be mandating that The Man Show be beamed into every household.

This is eliminationist, genocidal rhetoric. There’s nothing ambiguous about it. And it didn’t come from a random Bluesky account with 28 followers. It came from a sitting member of Congress. talkingpointsmemo.com/news/texas-c...
