I enjoy Gizelle's messiness most of the time but the Stacey bullying is getting old. #rhop

worth applying to politics as well. when you're criticizing an action people take "taking the better action next time" is only one of the alternatives people will consider, and worth remembering that "not bothering at all" is another.

Get Gina and Emily off #rhoc. What kind of blackmail do they have on the producers. They think they are good pot stirrers, but they are just assholes.

If you want to push back against tech's encroachment into every corner of our lives, you have to read books. They're eager to create a future in which most people are illiterate and hooked on slop, a world without imagination or knowledge. Reading is resistance.

I know it's a fool's errand to expect anything from the media but "President posts video of himself dumping diarrhea on America" is an important thing to call attention to for a dozen reasons

Something maybe worth noting is that all the frog costumes and signs and good-natured memeing came about because a wide spectrum of Americans saw someone in direct, brave confrontation with ICE—getting pepperballed and standing their ground—and thought “that’s awesome. That person is a hero”

I think today has been a massive success by the organizers and it needs no defending on the merits and any leftists who would seek to downplay it have demonstrated once again how they're completely useless by choice in this moment.

Also, they want to make content. And that means they are going to take the worst stuff people say in response to them (this being the internet, some of which might be quite bad) and splash it across the official comms organs of every major federal law enforcement agency. So take that into mind.

My favorite speakers today were the republicans who were all “they’ve finally gone too far! They called us Democrats!” Welcome to the resistance, I guess? #nokings

I wonder if King Charles will get his feeling hurt tomorrow, too.

Ten years ago today.

Six people had their visas revoked due to their social media posts. Six people are being deported because of what they said online. Six people have had their freedom of speech suspended. It won’t stop with these six people. Either we all have freedom of speech or none of us do.

the symbolism is solidarity, and solidarity is often symbolism. that's what the frog costume means. and that's a good thing.

part of the problem there is that once costumes become a symbol of solidarity, they're a symbol of solidarity. "why are you doing this?" "because it's what protestors do now." that's a perfectly reasonable answer!

Solidarity is the only way

Promise me that yall aren't going to platform the eventual "repentent ICE agent" stories that will come out...

It's been 22 days since Adelita Grijalva was elected by the people of Arizona's seventh congressional district to represent them in Congress. Mike Johnson still refuses to swear her in. At what point will political reporters start calling this a constitutional crisis?

Last night’s episode of #rhoslc was so wild and funny I am gonna watch it again.

Archie is so beautiful. 😍 #rhoc

Haha I am team No One in Emily vs Gretchen but they both deserve each other #rhoc

Emily is so phony. If she actually cared about justice she wouldn't be a MAGA dipshit. #rhoc

Pritzker: "He wants to militarize major cities because he wants us to get used to the idea of troops on the streets. I believe he's gonna post people outside of polling places and if he needs to in order to control those elections, he'll assume control of the ballot boxes & count the votes himself"

OMG the rage I'm feeling at my neighbor deciding to leaf blow right outside my office, just as I'm about to try to record a video for work... He's been at it for an hour. He's got to be done soon, right? Angry at myself for not recording earlier in the day when it was fucking quiet.

We’re in a moment now where it would be worth people taking three hours to watch Gandhi, particularly the scene of the salt march. There is value to making the brutality of your opponent so plain as day that no one can argue with it. The clarity of that brought down an empire

The fact that there are so many people out there who want to be writers but don’t read is wild. I don’t get it. Where does the desire come from if you aren’t a reader?

Potomac is so back! This episode is crazy for a season premiere #rhop

I wonder what personality Wendy will have this season. #rhop

jane goodall releasing a video of her listing the people she dislikes and ending with a vague message of hope is so iconic. truly someone i aspire to model myself after

Why are Giselle and Ashley so sure Stacey is lying and not TJ? I don't get it. Gotta say... one thing about Giselle and Ashley is they don't seem to give a damn what the audience thinks. #rhop

We’re only 9 months into this presidency and he’s already sending troops from red states into blue states while clearly stating his motives are political.

Every DoJ attorney promoting and defending at this stuff should never again eat food that is less than 10% spit

Waiting to hear back from a potential therapist and a potential housecleaner and even though I am a fan of therapy I think dollar for dollar the housecleaner is more effective at improving my mental health…

Team Heather. Gina is an asshole. #rhoc

I like writing. But I have never enjoyed journaling, in spite of trying for years off and on. I'm ready to admit it now. I hate journaling because it winds up making me sadder and madder instead of the opposite. I don't know why it doesn't work for me. But it doesn't so I'm going to quit trying!

This thread also speaks to why I'm spending less time on 🦋... I can't with the performative outrage and rightousness coupled with the thinly veiled racism of white leftists in large doses anymore. And they come elbowing their way into conversations here the same way the magas did on X.

Marc Maron did too: "From the folks that brought you 9/11. Two weeks of laughter in the desert, don't miss it! The same guy that's gonna pay them is the same guy that paid that guy to bone-saw Jamal Khashoggi and put him in a f***ing suitcase..." www.npr.org/2025/09/27/n...

David Cross nails it: “I am disgusted, and deeply disappointed in this whole gross thing,” wrote Cross on his website. “That people I admire, with unarguable talent would condone this totalitarian fiefdom for … what, a fourth house? A boat? More sneakers? www.hollywoodreporter.com/news/general...

The Saudis didn’t pay big money for famous American comedians because they were super eager for comedy, they paid for PR like this.

Tonight on a NY1 interview, Andrew Cuomo described Zohran Mamdani as "an existential threat" to New Yorkers and the Democratic Party. I can't say strongly enough that this is despicable, dangerous, irresponsible language. I've never held Cuomo in high esteem; let this election be his banishment.

1. More Americans work at the Cheesecake Factory than in the entire coal industry, and that won't change. It's because of automation, not snooty libs. 2. Coal energy is now more expensive than wind and solar. 3. So this means: higher energy prices, more pollution, no jobs benefit. Genius!

Do other animals accidentally bite their tongues so hard it hurts for days, or is that experience reserved for Earth’s apex predator?

Oh no did I do a BlueSkyism? Let’s call in Nate and Matty to wax on about how the low castes here feel too comfortable talking back, and how that might alienate the crucial demographic of “Parent with a Wikipedia page”-Americans

How rich were your parents, boy?

in point of fact, FDR’s open line of communication with black leaders like A. Philip Randolph absolutely strained his relationships with southern lawmakers and he did it anyway under the view that he was president for the whole country

the kimmel thing really was not pushed mainly by mainstream media. NYT for instance really wasn't nearly as excited about Kimmel as about biden's debate performance or the plagiarism scandal at harvard. 1

That’s me in the video. And a Fox News host just celebrated me being assaulted by ICE. If ICE will do this to a congressional candidate with a big platform, just imagine what they’re doing to the people they’re kidnapping.
