The journey the text of this post takes you on is something all the DeLoreans with all the flux capacitors on Earth could never dream of

Today I learned the Phillies have a pitcher in training camp named Zach Pop, who would immediately challenge Tank Bigsby for the best sports name in town

I think YouTube just called me a sicko

NEW Reign of Error. You don't want to miss this one. I talk with @matthewdtaylor.bsky.social about how Trump's top evangelical advisors are activating voters for the midterms around voter suppression, Iran, immigration, and literally casting out demons redcircle.com/shows/fbed71...

It’s both funny and cosmically correct that the U.S. men’s hockey chodes will have to sit through 2+ hours of rambling from their addled little king while the U.S. Women’s team gets to skip the speech and party with Flavor Flav in Vegas

Oh, it sucks when someone steals your shit, doesn't it www.nytimes.com/2026/02/23/t...

Truly a mystery

Some day we'll all regret this & we'll hold hearings & rend garments & pledge "never again" & we'll be just as full of shit as we were last time.

Human life is definitely inefficient, it's true. Probably best to eliminate it altogether. Machines as far as the eye can see: doing paperwork, trading Bitcoin, betting on Kalshi Alternately, we could eat the rich

To think this all could have been avoided if certain people had paid more attention to Schoolhouse Rock

i can smell this video, I don't know how to explain it, but its a combination of wet denim, damp crotch, old sweat, lashings of cologne, and divorced man smell

Sainte-Chapelle, Paris, 2023. It’s a dark and rainy day in Portland, Oregon, and I felt the need for some color in my life. I think this fits the bill. #Photography #Architecture #Interior #Paris #France 📷

Donald Trump made fun of Mike Johnson for praying before meals they have together in his speech at… *checks notes* …THE NATIONAL PRAYER BREAKFAST Allegedly, Christians love this guy.

Omg

how is this not satire

Democracy dies in darkness was a promise, not a motto.

Chappell Roan’s dress is like my sanity: Barely hanging on.

Movie review from Guardian on Melania.

BREAKING: Trump's DOJ has just arrested a SECOND Journalist, Georgia Fort, for filming and documenting the protest at the Minneapolis Church. American institutions are breaking down faster than even I had imagined. Journalists are being rounded up by a politically influenced DOJ.

Judge orders government to stop refugee deportations. ‘Refugees have a legal right to be in the U.S., a right to work, a right to live peacefully—and importantly, a right not to be subjected to the terror of being arrested and detained without warrants or cause...'" www.cbsnews.com/minnesota/ne...

Interesting that white evangelical Protestants (69%) and non-Hispanic Catholics (52%) are the only categories to have a positive approval rating of Trump.

The killing of Alex Pretti and the grotesque lying was an overreach by the administration. They've paid a price and had to pull back a bit. But it's when there's some disarray that the democratic opposition needs to intensify the offensive, and turn a marginal tactical success into a major victory.

The story is not that there are two conflicting versions of what happened. The story is that the federal government is lying about what happened. There is plenty of evidence. Your job, our job, is to sift that evidence and describe what actually happened ffs.

Murphy on Bovino: "That was a bone-chilling interview. I was shaking while I was listening to it, in large part bc it takes just an unbelievable amount of gall to lie to the American public. Everybody saw that video ... it should freak the public out that the Trump administration lies this easily"

👀🥶

CNN: DHS officials have come to FEMA staff and told them to limit the use of the word ice…they are worried that by posting something like, watch out for the ice, that it's going to become a meme….

From someone on the ground in Lewiston, Maine:

Are you an LGBTQ ally? Buy Girl Scout cookies AND support our trans friends! open.substack.com/pub/erininth...

(📷) This is an ICE agent in Minneapolis spraying a prone, unarmed, helpless civilian in the face with chemical munitions. This is something one goes to jail for. Yes, even a federal agent. Those who say Trump has declared war on Minnesota—and now Maine—are *not* exaggerating.

McGovern: Well, he said a lot of crazy shit today. I think it’s time to take the keys away from grandpa. He doesn’t seem like he’s all there.

Every poll these days is like: - Mad Nazi Pedophile King: 39% - The Democrats: 42%

a heavily armed paramilitary force with legal immunity is occupying a city and going door to door kidnapping non-white adults and children in furtherance of an explicitly white nationalist political project

What a time to be alive

This is a story I’ve been wanting to read- about how ordinary people have been organizing to fight back - thank you Aymann Ismail!

He should just say the 1st Amendment doesn't apply to the queers.

The image that makes so many ask, “why Gonzo yearning for Fozzie?” I don’t know why this works. I just know it does. 😂😂

Pynchon, Wallace, Vonnegut, Mike Judge, literally nobody, not even the South Park guys, could have come up with a plot this relentlessly stupid

When our children clean out our house after we die, they will find dozens or possibly hundreds of tape measures. I wonder where they'll find them.

The Times went to non urban Minnesota to ask people why they dislike urban Minneapolis. If someone were to ask me to teach a journalism school course on helicopter reporting, this story - so cliche it’s almost hard to believe they really did this - would immediately go on the syllabus.

This has been the plan all along

This leads me to believe that up until this meeting, Trump absolutely thought it was "hole milk."

It's absolutely INFURIATING to see the same people in the press who did their armchair neurology routine diagnosing Joe Biden with dementia and questioning his basic motor functions b/c he wore orthopedic shoes have absolutely NOTHING to say about this.

Insane footage from on the ground in Minneapolis. Trump continues to turn our neighborhoods into war zones. This is not normal.

It’s painfully obvious these goons have no idea what they’re doing. And they’ve learned nothing in the past week. Imagine going to a doctor’s appointment and all hell breaks loose. They cut your seatbelt, and yank you out of your car. Why is any of this necessary?

interesting! here's a video i took yesterday of federal agents ramming community members with their car

About god damn time.
