Sometimes the enemy of my enemy is still my enemy

Louis XVI and Marie Antoinette probably had really good security and bodyguards, right up until they didn’t.

I have been given the shiny and very real War Stopper Award by USA Pickleball because I have stopped so many dozens of wars and whatnot. I am honored that my war stopping has been noticed by the foremost pickleball organization in the world.

They should get RFK Jr. to do the audiobook for American Canto

One issue is the constitution being written by educated men, imagined that future citizens and leaders would be as educated as them or more, and that therefore their future was always going to be one that respected unwritten but agreed upon centuries of English legal tradition

Miller wants power and he wants to hurt people. He's got the mentality of a serial killer, but sublimated into politics. There were plenty of guys like that running the original German Nazis.

Politicians love to talk about "kids safety" until you ask them to do something that would actually keep kids safe like fund housing, healthcare, education, outdoor spaces, arts programs, etc. That's because most of them use "safety" as a euphemism for surveillance, control and domination.

I feel like one of the most underrated explanations for what's happening right now in global politics is that almost everyone has lost their minds.

MAGA mantra Versions of the same: For my friends, everything; for my enemies, the law. One group the law protects but does not bind; and another group the law binds but does not protect. And that foundation of fascism everywhere: the strong do what they will, while the weak suffer what they must.

It’s not just rampant anti-intellectualism in politics it’s also that the only state functions both sides uniformly get behind are surveillance and imprisonment the other parts of state capacity are viewed as burdens to be resolved not actual requirements of running a country

He is risen

No matter how long I live after we get through this dark chapter, I will never get over the immorality, the amorality, the corruption, the criminality and the cruelty in service to one of the worst humans to ever walk the earth.

Nothing says cunty like an all-chrome spaceship

The good news: the president has pardoned the turkey. The bad news: two hours later the turkey was arrested for running a ponzi scheme and committing acts of gross sexual imposition.

My buddy just called Robert Kennedy Jr. “Dr. Felchi” and I don’t think I’m gonna recover…

Ya know, I'd be totally cool with it if someone would invent a timeline that doesn't suck quite so much.

bluesky checked the IP addresses of pro-turkey posters and they're all posting from hungry

I think it's easier to understand the Trump Era when you realize nobody actually likes Trump, they just like the anarchy and chaos of being free from social norms and basic civility. Even his supporters hate him, but he normalized being a monster.

I know what your brain just did...

We are currently at the "It is treasonous to encourage people to not perform illegal acts" phase of Fascism.

Before the midterms of 1866, President Andrew Johnson called his congressional opponents traitors and said they should be hanged. Voters were so profoundly moved by his words... that they gave his opponents a supermajority in Congress, and the nation got the Fourteenth Amendment.

"It's so refreshing to have a President that speaks frankly to the American people about his desire to murder members of Congress, unlike the previous Administration"

I'm so glad that, after Charlie Kirk's assassination, the rhetorical temperature has been dialed down.

As disgusted as I am by the actions of the Saudi Crown Prince, I’m exponentially more disgusted by the President of the United States excusing and defending them.

The thing is journalists are not subordinate to the government and therefore cannot be insubordinate in questioning the government

Poor little “z” key, getting so much unaccustomed use... Hang in there, little buddy! It's your time to shine! (But sorry that the context is so stupid, vapid, and shudder-inducing.)

Basically all art and religion for all of history: Power over others is corrupting, the changes it causes inescapable & terrible Every single motherfucker: Ah but you see I have a clever little way to avoid this happening to meeeee

The editor's job boils down to one thing: to be an advocate for the reader

Remember: The concentration of wealth in the hands of a few isn't just bad for our economy. It's corrosive to our democracy. When the wealthy and well-connected control our political system, regular people don't have a voice. The result? The demagoguery and corruption we're seeing now.

Being an "anti-anti-fascist" is not a thing. That just means you're "pro-fascist". (And, to save time and be clearer in your communications, you can just say that you're "a fascist".)

Just because there are two sides doesn’t mean that one of those sides isn’t wrong.

Whoever is making these hilarious memes should be ashamed of themselves. Just stop it.

“I am sorry, but the country you are trying to reach is no longer in service. If you feel like you have reached this message in error, then call your local Congress member & demand the #25thAmendment” Thank you for your attention to this matter.

While I don't think the "Bubba" referred to in the email is William Jefferson, I do believe people speculating about it being him will drive Velveeta Voldemort crazy, and that brings me unspeakable amounts of joy.

8 years of "What is a woman?" and now it turns out that the comeback was "define a child"

We are headed to some sort omnishambles of a polycrisis entirely of his own making of which his pedophilia will only be one element

Megyn Kelly being more concerned with the psychological damage that might result from kids seeing a Black Santa Claus than a middle-aged man forcing himself on an underage girl sums up the ethical and moral bankruptcy of MAGA.

They've done it. An even more ridiculous version of the Swasticar. Yeee-hawww!

What you want from a functional, thriving superpower is every reporter in the country spending all day combing through a cache of documents that all say, more or less, “hi [rich ruling class person], it was good seeing you last week for all the child sex crimes!”

To the side-point about the emails’ horrendous writing, showing that the “elites” communication/typing skills are, in general, somewhat lacking: 𝙉𝙤𝙬 I understand the desire and enthusiasm for AI/LLMs.

I often say this. The right interprets the left with a Little Orphan Annie Decoder Ring and liberals interpret the extremely specific statements uttered by the right with a blindfold.

All the events that allowed Trump to be president (twice!) have really unveiled the level to which the public is conditioned by the narrative tropes the media uses how to think about controversy. Mainly, that crime is only nefarious when hidden and consequences are only for people who feel shame

Ya know, it's just quite possible that the Gray Lady chose the worst possible time to go full Mar-a-Lago blonde.

What’s going through your head as the Chief of Staff as you watch the President make personal calls to prevent the release of information about a child sex trafficking operation?
