If you want to pay to read about sex online, please consider spending the money you would be spending on this political clusterfuck on ethical sex works sites that fit your interests instead of your nightmares.

TRUMP: and this Daniel, he went into the den? MAMDANI: The lion's den, yes TRUMP: surely they ate him MAMDANI: Here's the part where it gets a little Broadway: they didn't TRUMP: Unbelievable

“trump is ecstatic to meet the muslim socialist immigrant mayor of new york while MAGA’s strongest soldier from georgia-14 resigns in disgust” is a fucking coalition-breaking disaster for the hard right

while I’m being cranky, access journalism needs to go. When the president does his “I’m alpha because I insulted you” thing somebody needs to fall on his sword and say “what the fuck is wrong with you, old man?” on a hot mic. the hero of the wizard of Oz is Toto.

The grift continues in particularly American fashion. Worth noting that Bond Arms guns generally sell for ~$270. That worthless name doesn't come cheap.

donald trump and his party are having a truly terrible week, politically, and i love that for all of us

Judge Ellis derides Greg Bovino as a serial fabulist who brazenly lied on the stand and seemingly considered it funny to perjure himself. cst.brightspotcdn.com/49/34/daecfb...

Look, the President is going to insult you, demean you, and threaten your livelihoods, and you ungrateful bastards should be thanking him for the opportunity.

Breaking: Judge rules deployment of National Guard into DC is illegal (puts her order on pause until 12/11 for appeals). "The Court finds that the District’s exercise of sovereign powers within its jurisdiction is irreparably harmed by Defendants’ actions in deploying the Guards," she writes.

Trump could shoot someone on 5th Avenue and Mike Johnson would say they deserved it

nature is healing, the average senator should think of the average rep as a pissant and the average house rep should go to sleep dreaming about tasting that senator’s blood

Maannn, I don’t like when people screenshot young people learning a thing for the first time. That’s a thing they get to be a little embarrassed about one time and then someone corrects them. That’s a normal thing.

Sometimes you're in a long-closed hospital, and sometimes the toilets are under the sinks.

How is nurse practitioner no longer professional? I have always gone to the medical center in my community and my primary care person has always been a nurse practitioner!! I’ve rarely gotten a doctor because that is scarce in tribal communities, but my NP has always done amazing work.

Fuck you, congenital heart defect people.

“Quiet, Piggy” would be fitting for his tombstone.

! Chuck @schumer.senate.gov asks unanimous consent that the Senate immediately read and pass the bill to release the Epstein files, un-amended, "as soon as it comes over from the House." No objections. Motion succeeds. Bill is deemed to the Senate unanimously, will go to Trump to become law.

Maybe if Kash Patel's 1,000 FBI agents had been flagging/redacting CSAM and innocent persons rather than logging mentions of one Donald J. Trump we wouldn't have these issues.

The state will continue to face monthly fines unless it significantly decreases wait times for people in the criminal justice system waiting in county jails for mental health treatment.

5 headlines tonight on Charlotte Observer’s homepage: “Manolo's Bakery closes to protect customers” “Church members flee as federal agents arrive” “Super G executive describes agents dragging out teen employee” “Border Patrol questions people at Walmart” “Border Patrol sweep sparks fear”

i used to think the lyric was ‘i wanna rock and roll all night / and part of every day’ and i remember thinking, honestly that sounds reasonable

Putting in the research on Indigenous art history and finding out that contemporary Indigenous artists in the 50-70s had their artwork displayed in anthorpological museums instead of art galleries. Shockingly dehumanizing of those artists and their works.

Operation Strapping Manservant

With all the fine tuning of the distinction between sex with 14 year olds and 8 year olds I'm starting to think that Ephebophilia might be part of the 2028 GOP platform if Trump let's them have a platform again. Vance - Blackburn 2028, Ephebophilia, NOT THAT BAD

This is 5,000 acres of trust land just outside Okmulgee. Hopefully the Mvskoke council comes to its senses and stops this.

Trump has to remain able to at least bluff that he can make a head roll on demand and he can't make MTG's head roll

Brace yourself. And watch. Because my gods you need this. www.youtube.com/shorts/weh3g...

I see no way this can go poorly

This is supercool, a real-world validation of the Belyayev Russian Fox experiments. But also the raccoons at my house seem to be getting more and more thuggish, so I dunno. www.scientificamerican.com/article/racc...

Lost in the general vileness of Obergruppenfuhrer Bovino's loathsome obsession with ethnic cleansing is the fact that you have a career civil servant publicly attacking elected officials and judges. Fascist authoritarianism is taking hold by the day. It's up to us to oppose it:

When Megyn Kelly says it’s not a big deal if she’s 17, she’s not talking about her own daughter but about the underclass

I think Republicans look at everything and ask "was this created by Democrats?" and if the answer is yes they will move heaven and hell to reverse it, cut funding or beg courts to let them gut it another way. They have nothing for us, all they care about is owning the libs and racism.

In a world of Megyn Kelly's be a Patton Oswalt.

It's really weird to see people like Tucker Carlson and Megyn Kelly, who once had sweet corporate gigs, have to turn up the creep knob to compete with a generation of personalities that started with an iPhone and a mental disorder.

Michigan Republicans asking Trump to take over the 2026 election Michigan. (I know that this, in theory, references in 'monitoring'. But we're not obligated to accept bullshit cover stories.)

i think it might be worth banning or heavily restricting LLMs, but doing so by asserting that the commons has always been completely closed and that it is absurd to assert otherwise is contrary both to what the law actually says and to good public policy

this is WILD

From: Larry Summers Subject: Thought Women, pah! Such low minded cattle, like cows to me. Not yet of the eshalone of a peak male brain. Thinkst you so, Jeffrey? From: Jeffrey Epstein Subject: ❗ Re: Thought impotant pattern . i just remebrered all the letters . a b b c e g f i p l m n s t u xv z .

Is that like Tim Curry, the preacher in Pass the Ammo?

“Good Fire: Tending Native Lands" explores how colonization and displacement of Indigenous groups have contributed to the decimation of healthy ecosystems throughout California.

Your windshields should be absolutely covered in a sticky mess of bug splats/insect carcasses every time you drive across open country forcing you to stop periodically at gas stations to use their wet squeegees to try and clean up your view of the road at night

Purely anecdotal, but every few months I sample groundwater at a facility in rural Oklahoma with a dyed-in-the-wool MAGA foreman. Chatting about business today he complained that it was wildly inconsistent lately and "it might be 'cause of the President's bullshit."

One of the hidden impacts of the shutdown is on schools on reservations. Most school districts rely on local taxes, but schools on federal land, like reservations or military bases, rely on federal funding.

It's been a hectic week and we've just now finished the Lowdown. I need this to be renewed for a second season like I've rarely needed anything else. An utter delight, and absolutely Tulsa.

I'm listening in to the hearing on the Motion for TRO in the Boston SNAP case. We're waiting for Judge Talwani to take the bench. I'll try to do the Comey hearing at 4:00 ET if possible, but guessing these two will overlap.

The House is out until Wednesday, so the shutdown isn't ending before Wednesday night at the earliest

And then let them sputter "But we WORK for our healthcare!" Sure you do, sugar. You work just as hard as anyone. Sure.

Every video clip posted by the great @atrupar.com this morning features a lying, craven, venal sack of shit. He's doing the good work by reminding us who these fuckers are.
