I'm going offline for awhile. I won't be posting, scrolling or chatting here at all. Don't worry, I'll be back. ❤️

Thinking a lot recently about the outrage over Lizzo playing James Madison's flute

Here’s the original clip of Ronald Reagan from April 25, 1987, where he delivered a complete and total rebuke against tariffs. Trump's calling Reagan’s words here “FAKE” and “fraudulent.” They’re 100% real. And the original clip is actually far worse for Trump, as much is left out of the ad:

To the craven "comedians" who are STILL not speaking up: The manager at the Chicago Laugh Factory was arrested by ICE. They filed no charges, he's a US citizen, and his family doesn't know where he is. They are coming for all of us. Grow a fucking spine and say something while you still can.

Here's a photo of my friend and colleague, Jorge Bautista, getting shot in the face with a flashbang grenade. The ICE Agent is so afraid of Jorge (who was posing no threat) that he has wet himself. Please share this photo. Everyone needs to know what cowards ICE agents are.

“oh so you think the east wing being demolished is worse than-“ it’s a synecdoche, man. a visual metaphor. there’s a reason the aliens in Independence Day don’t aim a huge laser at SNAP benefits

Fuck these people.

I kid you not, this is currently what the White House's "Major Events Timeline" shows for the East Wing expansion. www.whitehouse.gov/about-the-wh...

🚨Trump’s team is plotting to declare a fake "national emergency" to hijack elections. One operative says they can “take steps without Congress” and mandate state election rules. Independent, state-run elections are the last firewall between democracy and authoritarian rule.

Wonderful article! A very satisfying read 👌🖤

every pissed off post is like a day or two behind so fails to keep up with the enormity of how pissed to be "$20 billion for Argentina" no it's $40 billion now "they destroyed the facade" nah got the whole building already "$200 million ballroom" nope just this morning he upped it to $300 million

“This country was going to die without you.” Dark, Unhinged, North Korea-level stuff from Stephen Miller

When we first heard that Bari Weiss had been hired as the new editor-in-chief at CBS News, we knew we had to call in the Cancel Guncle himself, @michaelhobbes.bsky.social! An interestingand hilarious conversation ensued... www.youtube.com/watch?v=qNlW...

Not “ICE” changing license plates in a back lot. They wouldn’t do that, would they? Maybe the authorities should look into this.

Craziest inmate running the asylum, rabid fox guarding the henhouse: a year before inflection-point midterms, a MAGA 2020 conspiracy nut is the Department of Homeland Security’s new deputy assistant secretary for election integrity. Wondering: % of D.C. election deniers sincerely deluded vs lying?

Tech companies have a First Amendment right not to be pressured by the government to remove content, and the apps that have a right to not be removed due to government censorship. But even if they don't fight back, we all have a #1A right to access this information free from government censorship.

An awesome and thoughtful piece. “There is an unconscionable industry built around making people decide how much less than what they deserve they are willing to accept. Rejecting that as the false choice that it is… seems like a reasonable place to start.”

50s: the Nazis were evil 60s: the Nazis were buffoons 70s: the Nazis had provocative symbolism 80s: the Nazis were a warmup for the Commies 90s: anyone you dislike is a Nazi 00s: the Nazis are a good subject for "ironic" jokes 10s: the Nazis are a good subject for less-ironic jokes 20s: uh-oh

What in the soft-core Skinemax Videodrome ripoff fresh hell is happening at :41 - :42 ????

Reminder that Violent J of Insane Clown Posse has the correct response to a lot of the shitty things he said in the early days.

We might not can sue the lying press secretary but we can do a Class Action Lawsuit against FOX! Who's in!? I mean $787M! They'll pay us way more than George Soros ever did! 😆

What, if anything, did the No Kings protests accomplish? I've seen that pop up in everything from genuine inquiry to sneering dismissal. For anyone asking or facing that question, here's an answer. Everything isn't all fixed, of course. But the protests accomplished at least these seven things:

I just went to the House floor to demand that Speaker Johnson swear in Adelita Grijalva, but the GOP gaveled out without even recognizing us.    We’re not going anywhere. I’m here with Leader Jeffries and Adelita Grijalva. Speaker Johnson must swear her in.

Democrats: We must come to the table to lower health care prices for Americans and end the shutdown. Republicans: Who wants to drink iced tea in Trump's newly renovated Rose Garden?

Inflatable frog costumes are selling out following the weekend's “No Kings” protests and to counter Trump’s demonization of US cities more broadly. www.wired.com/story/the-lo...

ICE is stockpiling arms, including chemical weapons, guided missile warheads and explosive components. The spending dwarfs anything we've ever seen in the agency - a 700% increase. The President is building an army to attack his own country.

very this

"Seeing that solidarity, I think, was very moving to a lot of people. And there were probably people who didn’t go in June, who saw those on social media, saw those signs, and saw those numbers, and then in October felt, You know what? Maybe it does make a difference." trib.al/HzgkIKq

I drew Derpy from memory ⭐️

Cancel SPOTIFY. They are running ICE ads. F them. www.snopes.com/fact-check/s...

This is what democracy looks like. #NoKings

Americans have been dragged, tackled, beaten, tased and shot by immigration agents. They’ve had their necks kneeled on. They’ve been held outside in the rain while in their underwear. At least three citizens were pregnant when agents detained them. By @nicolefoy.bsky.social

At the Ren Faire today, we watched a blacksmith give a 30-minute demonstration about swords. And at the end he said, “My lecture is now over, here are some kittens to pet.” *Proceeds to uncover 2 large pet carriers and pulls out 6 kittens.*

So many riends have sent me videos of my uncanny internet doppelgänger & MN hype man @bryaninmsp.bsky.social ever since he went viral earlier this year, so when he and his family were at Disneyland last week, we got the chance to goof off in person! 1 of 2 🧵

Zohran Mamdani makes videos educating people about a trans activist and Donald Trump posts an AI video of himself shitting diarrhea all over American citizens. The news media is trying to stop the former and help the latter.

Something like 7m people nationwide — and mostly nothing reported on the front pages of the major papers.

Oh man. This.

The GOP called protestors "terrorists" and "Marxists" and that didn't stop retired moderates in small towns from coming out today dressed in frog costumes because they're tired of this obvious bullshit. Two million more than in June. Seven million total. The GOP should be very worried.

Sun’s out, tongue’s out. 👅🌞

After a week of ridiculous Republican smears and Trump claiming that “very few people are going to be there,” you just made history. #NoKings

Took this good boi to the dog park today

Tony Gilroy knows what’s up.

i imagine there’s about to be an influx of MAGA chuds spewing their bullshit but i really can’t stress enough that if we don’t give them oxygen, they’ll get bored and leave. block early and often.

All those former Pentagon reporters should cover No Kings today 🚫👑

This is a blatant attempt to silence and isolate us. He’s stopping the trains, closing the freeways and firing live rounds into California. We will not be intimidated. We will not be silenced. #NoKings
