it's also my theory why white nationalism, etc. is on the rise again it never went away, they were just waiting for the last generation who experienced its atrocities and refused to tolerate it to finish dying off, and then they came crawling out to try it again

Northwestern and Columbia being famous for journalism and bending over for Trump seems a little too on the nose these days

Watching Ken Burns’ new American Revolution series and learning that Rahway, NJ was once called “Spanktown”

god I would kill for this kind of quality brick action, not a broken mass to be found and one (1) single cladding

I wanna live like common people I wanna do whatever common people do Wanna sleep with common people I wanna sleep with common people like you

I will say this: "Our degenerate elites are really bad at sexting" is something I hoped I would always merely suspect rather than be able to confirm with ease

help

if you think you know who this kid is, no, you don't.

Happy 50th to perhaps the greatest guitar solo of all time

Note also the stamp cancellation: “Karlsbad 1 / I’m befreiten Sudetenland” (Karlovy Vary / in liberated Sudetenland)

neko case is one our greatest living lyricists, all of you who argued with me about this last time are completely insane.

Nothing like a proposal for a modest amount of lower-income housing nearby to find out who your neighbors are.

the thing that upsets me about this the most is that Dems had all the momentum, republicans were reeling, and we were getting intra-GOP fighting over the filibuster, all while voters were blaming republicans for their incompetence this destroys all of this. just a total gut punch

fuck Thanksgiving travel!

40 men Trump sent to CECOT tell the NYT they were beaten, tortured, and sexually assaulted. The details are worse than you can imagine. We can’t let them get away with this. Miller and the other architects of this sadism need to go to prison. www.nytimes.com/2025/11/08/w...

One thing I have marveled at is the way that crowds have been disciplined in capturing immigration enforcement’s lack of discipline.

"World's first potential trillionaire has killed 600,000 people, including 400,000 children" is the only headline that anyone should ever read about Elon Musk

It is impossible to hate John Roberts enough.

dawg not the steakhouse wedding font

I pass out early because of a week of newborn related insomnia, and I wake up to a blessed TL 🙏

Explaining to my NYC-native cats that something very exciting happened in their hometown, but to no avail.

Schumer is plainly just a massive bigot. he will not support a Muslim for elected office

Would that the Senate Minority Leader were as loyal a party soldier as one random, poorly-informed Manhattanite.

This isn't a closing election argument, it's Vidkun Quisling explaining why surrender is better than resistance.

Hell yeah I’m moving back and buying a Ditmas Park Victorian for $45 and a sack of root vegetables

Posting a photo of Ceausescu’s bathroom for no apparent reason.

Your chilly sneer Of cold command Your trunkless legs Upon the sand Once awed the Persian, Turk, And Damascene A pedastal Beside your smirk Proclaims “Look up, You lazy jerk! Behold the mighty work Of great Jolene.”

oh my god

“I’ve watched the city I grew up in be destroyed by luxury apartment developers” No, you watched it get destroyed by homeowners who blocked new housing and got rich off of it.

so The Tribunals have to happen on the just-razed grounds of the Epstein Ballroom, yeah?

“We will rebuild the White House as it was and pay for it by seizing assets from Trump, the Trump Organization, and his family.”

All these people are saying “wait to you think he’s REALLY a Nazi,” and my response is “no I think it’s more likely he’s an irony-poisoned edgelord douchebro, another group that’s absolutely ruining the fucking country.”

I am quite comfortable saying the iconography of the worst genocidaires in history who we spent massive amounts of blood and treasure defeating should remain a taboo from here to the heat death of the universe.

Like it's just a building but it's also a physical manifestation of Trump believing that he owns the United States government like he bought it in a merger, and I hate that with every lower case r republican fiber in my being

i think the president should live in mortal fear of depicting himself as a king

Student media rules. They are lapping a lot of the spineless media orgs this year and showing how solidarity is the way.

[Exit King.]

I am never ever going to forgive a single one of these motherfuckers.

I lived in the District of Columbia on 1/6/21. I had go bags for us and our cats. I planned for a place to go (an unoccupied house of a friend, due to Covid). We were very close to fleeing until it became clear that the insurrection had been quelled. It was clear as day from just watching the news.

It takes 67 Senators to impeach a SCOTUS justice but only 51 with sufficient will to add 6 more justices

Honest to god the biggest scam in America right now is whatever Dem consultants are being paid

Well that’s an easy $50 from this Michigander to her campaign.

John Roberts’ Constitution: The federal government protecting people’s right to vote or giving them health care violates the sacred principle of state sovereignty but if the deranged POTUS and his bloodthirsty advisers want to use the military to invade other states for being too liberal that’s fine

I repeat, I think the October 18th protests will be historically significant. We must act in defense of our Republic.
