"no standing and no grounds" = I don't understand what happens in courts, but I heard this on TV once.

I take Wikipedia for granted. Reading this Jimmy Wales interview reminded me in our Fantasyland age what a remarkable and important creation it is. True pillar of civilization. Runs on only $200 million a year. Requires our support. So I’m finally donating. Gift link: www.nytimes.com/2025/10/18/m...

Conservatives believe getting an A for nonsense is a human right but food isn’t.

A rare moment of a Republican genuinely giving a damn.

Another direct hit from Hegseth.

you fire right back at them and you FIRE RIGHT AWAY.

LEFT: Mark Kelly, shirt covered with medals. RIGHT: Pete Hegseth, shirt covered with booze.

I cannot imagine what could possibly go wrong in trying to court-martial an astronaut and pilot decorated multiple times for valor and exceptional service, who is also a sitting senator, for correctly making the point that service members are obliged not to follow unlawful orders

If the government won't bail out my crypto losses, I'm going to become an even bigger libertarian.

Elon Musk spending billions of dollars to buy a social network to replicate what it's like to have friends who like you, and an AI to replicate what it's like to have a supportive father who praises you, only to have both consistently turn on him is Promethean torture if Prometheus had deserved it.

Fucking gross

Trump: everyone in the US died from drugs last week Reporter: [nods] Trump: so we must murder on the high seas Reporter: [nods] Trump: I caught Trix rabbit once Reporter: [nods] Trump: the cock on that bunny Reporter: [nods] Trump: bigger than you think Headline: Trump Policy Seeks To Save Lives

For 5% of the American population, waging war against American cities to create a dictatorial white theocratic ethnostate was not too far, but being a core part of a decades-long ring of child-rapists was too far. So that's nice. One wonders what it will take for the next 5% to fall away.

one thing about this is that in the wake of all of this kirk is basically forgotten. he was barely cold in the ground before his allies — before his *wife* — started scheming over what they could take for themselves. a real life parable.

Someone should ask Megyn Kelly to address the injustice of this persecution of men who have normal desires.

Everyone is downplaying that Mar-A-Lago is a vector in the Epstein pipeline so it’s good to point this out

This kook gave this video to LibsOfTikTok, who presumably thought this was a normal thing to do and not visibly psycho shit. Even on Twitter it landed like a wet fart in an elevator. These people have no idea how to handle Kat and they’re terrified she’s going to win.

We gotta get people back into reading the whole story

My new book "The Immortals" about some damn Cubs team you probably remember a little bit is now ready for purchase on Amazon. I promise that I'll stop droning on about it. Eventually. www.pointlessexercise.com/your-new-fav...

Epstein emails reveal New York Times reporter's connection to scandal www.dailykos.com/stories/2025...

Hey so “underage girls” are…children. The word you’re looking for is children. They’re not like, women-in-waiting or women-lite or whatever. They’re children. I think some of you are very uncomfortable with what that means for you but it is still true.

At what point does the New York Times get charged as organizationally conspiring to abet human trafficking of minors.

So, uh, the Jed Rubenfeld referenced here was disciplined by Yale Law for sexually harassing students. He's married to Amy Chua who among other things took to the pages of the NYT to defend Kavanaugh when he was under fire for sexually harassment. Ken Starr, well we know. This is just incredible.

Oh …

Holy shit finally an Op-Ed that Gets It

This poem was written while sitting in the women's restroom in the U.S. District Courthouse in Chicago Illinois while Greg Bovino stood outside in the hallway

Somebody please show Bari Weiss my interview with Portnoy from 13 YEARS AGO TELLING (AND REPEATEDLY DEFENDING) RAPE JOKES. Why is CBS platforming a dude with a looong history of misogyny? Forward to a 1:35 to see my confrontation with him. youtu.be/B7QTahhIBqI

Breaking WSJ: Fannie Mae watchdogs who were removed from their jobs had been probing if Trump appointee Bill Pulte had improperly obtained mortgage records of key Democratic officials, including New York Attorney General Letitia James, according to people familiar with the matter.

All he did was screw up the entire organization.

A day that will live in infamy. @pointlessexercise.com

Saw a clip of Chris Cuomo calling Zohran petty for referencing Mario Cuomo in his speech and it’s pretty interesting about where we are as a country that they had super pacs linking Zohran to 9/11 but still feel totally free to call someone else classless.

Sometimes I follow links from various sources that take me to X, and I’ll sometimes forget to leave after being directed toward the tweet, and then I’ll see other tweets, like this WICKED BURN by Nate Silver.

This is why they were in downtown Chicago today. "one agent shouted, “Everyone say, ‘Little Village!’”" Nuremberg Trials are the moderate stance blockclubchicago.org/2025/11/10/b...

Unfortunately still true bsky.app/profile/adam...

Also in case its not being mentioned in your feed, there is still a remaining vote for this and Somehow they didn't anticipate the outrage, so there's apparently some hesitation now. If those were your senators, call them and don't stop. I will also be calling even though they arent mine

800+ flights cancelled today because Elon took a chainsaw to the federal government and Trump won’t pay the remaining airport personnel. Elon’s on his way to becoming a trillionaire. Trump’s net worth has more than doubled inside a year. Glad everything worked out for them. How about you?

This amazing from so many angles…

When sandwiches are outlawed, only outlaws will have sandwiches.

It reminded me of Schwarber photobombing the shot of Joe after the final out of the World Series.

meanwhile RFK Jr fled like the guy was a life-sized vaccine

Befuddling how you can say this about Virginia with a straight face.

Seems kind of obvious now that looming specter of these results is what killed Dick Cheney.

Seeing a disgusting loser get his ass kicked all over New York City really makes me miss the Mets

Normal People Don’t Want This Shit is running away with the vote tonight

The good news is we don't have to rely on him to swear in Mayor Mamdani.
