Stephen Miller's face looks like a penis that is perpetually disappointed in it's self. 😐

“If you could just take turns to say your name, rank, last four digits of your social security number and your mothers maiden name-“

Woohoo! Always a thrill, and an honor! The Bentmen were going to open their last show with this, but the gig got killed by Covid. :(

Our current government in a nutshell.

"In Nazi Germany, transgender people were prosecuted, barred from public life, forcibly detransitioned, and imprisoned and killed in concentration camps." That is where Stephen Miller and Donald Trump are headed. en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Transge...

One person having the power to upend entire industries and economic sectors on a whim every day that puts companies out of business and workers out of jobs with no legislative input is an autocracy, regardless of whether that person initially acquired power through an election.

Nathan Gill is no fringe politician. He was the leader of the Reform Party and before that UKIP in Wales. A Brexit Party MEP. A friend and ally of Nigel Farage, who in 2016 called him: "terrific," and "as honest as the day is long." This is a MASSIVE story www.bbc.co.uk/news/article...

The accelerationists and the doomsayers are two sides to the same coin and neither should be heeded

Every major talent that works for ABC and Disney should refuse to show up for work until Jimmy Kimmel is reinstated. Marvel movies need to shutdown. Ditto the sitcoms. Collective boycott. Corporations love money more than anything,& this will harm them and force them to do the right thing.

Hard beats meet hard rock tomorrow Wed 9/17 when the iconic Jimmy Jam Harris does Q&A with the iconoclastic men of ANVIL after a 35mm screening of their eye-opening, life-changing docco at @amcinematheque.bsky.social's Aero! This will sell out: get tix: www.americancinematheque.com/now-showing/...

As a Michigander: Yes, this law is evil. It also won't even make it out of committee, much less out of the House, much less through the Senate or past the Governor's desk, much less stand up to the 5-2 D-majority state Supreme Court. But it gives me a chance to talk about Rep. Schriver.

We have way too many thoughts on the Coachella 2026 poster

I have to give a big shoutout to Rod Richardson and Howard Thompson at WPKN, who have been so supportive of all the different projects I've got going on. Thanks so much! It means the world to me. And of course, I must congratulate you on your impeccable taste! :)

Well, here's a name I haven't heard in a while... getpocket.com/explore/item...

My optimism here is limited, but I really hope centrist institutions like universities and major news organizations understand that the plan is for the govt to dismantle them. They do not care if you fire your columnists or discipline staff for accurately quoting Kirk. They just want us all gone.

Please read the experts here like @cwarzel.bsky.social and ignore the unqualified takes.

Thank you, @radionothing.bsky.social! Always proud to be included with such esteemed company!

Times are tough for artists, writers, and other creative folk. If you have the means, consider signing up for someone's Patreon, or commission some art, or buy a book. Write a skeet about a creative you enjoy. Spread the word about their work.

Whole thread. We’re in an up-in-the-air moment now: one hand, Trump threatening civil war; other, ICE being turned back by civil disobedience. Moral: fascists don’t know yet how far they’re willing to go. My belief: more moments like this now will prevent the war that’s been threatened.

doctors I trust more than RFK jr

i don't think a lot of you understand what's happening. if they can declare transgender people mentally ill, then they can do it for anyone. and they will. they'll say homosexuality is an illness. they'll say women have hysteria. all the old invented pseudoscience will return in service to them.

Many thanks! Always grateful for your support. This one captures the loneliness of the long distance space traveler.

Welcome to all you new big-brained buggers who like facts and shit! We’re very happy to have you here! 💪🏼🧠👍🏼

The COVID-19 pandemic undermined the right in several key ways: 1) It showed us which workers are essential and empowered them. 2) It showed that the markets can’t solve everything. 2) It threatened GOP political prospects in a critical election. 4) Government relief proved popular and effective

Destroying decades worth of progress because bigotry was easier than allowing people to live their lives. The people who voted for Trump destroyed this country. Full stop. Fuck each and every one of them.

Trump is dying. He doesn’t have a lot of time left. So they’re trying to speedrun a military dictatorship and rig future elections before it gets handed to JD Vance and all support from MAGA dries up. Without that, they’ll lose power real quick.

THIS…is the mindset. THIS…is the attitude. THIS…is the fire in the gut….that we are going to ALL have to adopt. I have. Have you? We can’t have people sit this one out…and still prevail.

When Putin’s end comes, it’s gonna be quick and confusing… and then, when Russians finally feel confident he’s really gone, all hell is gonna break lose across the nation’s multiplicity of fractures.

Burning a flag will never be as offensive as draping it over his coffin will be.

The new online vigilante portal to sign up to be a Brownshirt to deploy like a stormtrooper to brutalize poor people, immigrants, people of color, and anyone else who might dare to go to a protest is a development that should be one of the major news stories of the year. It's barely being mentioned.

All of this makes Watergate look like a charming little gaffe. We are never going to untangle all of this bullshit.

reposted this today because the inverse is also true: if you abandon trans people right now, you are abandoning civil rights period. if you can't stand up for trans people when it matters, no one should, or will, ever trust you when the bullseye moves to the next target.

I, for one, am shocked that giving people money when they don’t have money solves the problems caused by them not having money
