Billy and the Boingers have withdrawn from the Epstein Memorial Fest 250.

Come at me

Impossible to disagree with a single word that Ben Rhodes (Obama era NSC official) is saying here:

They put the content warning at the end of the book. Now that you're traumatized, here's a warning about this book.

And I just looked around at my quite nice house, and my good stereo, and all my records and books and DVDs and musical instruments, and thought "if you showed me this as a ten year old, I'd think it was literal heaven".

Saturday morning, an airstrike flattened the Shajareh Tayyebeh school in Minab, in Iran's Hormozgan province. The girls inside were between 7 and 12 years old. Around 170 students were in the building when it was hit. Iran's semiofficial Mehr News Agency reports 63 students killed and 60 injured.

Big hat tip @wapplehouse.bsky.social for this:

DOG AT THE OLYMPICS FULL COMPETITION HIGHLIGHTS

AI is incapable of doing any of these and they're still going to trigger massive layoffs because other CEOs are depressingly stupid and will try to immediately implement . We deserve a little Reign of Terror, as a treat.

Sir Ian McKellen performing a monologue from Shakespeare’s Sir Thomas More on the Stephen Colbert show. Never have I heard this monologue performed with such a keen sense of prescience. Nor have I ever been in this exact historical moment.TY Sir Ian, for reaching us once again. #Pinks #ProudBlue

actual footage of me returning from lunch yesterday

All the people who lost their minds over Waco and Ruby Ridge gonna have a wildly different response to this, I'm guessing.

Another friend put it to me like this: "ICE has made the classic Nazi mistake. They've invaded a winter people in the winter."

From ever-brilliant @rubenbolling.bsky.social another great cartoon. See original here bsky.app/profile/rube... And reminder that a certain SCOTUS member will be immortalized for something other than "I like beer!" We should use his name in every account of these skin-color-based roundups.

"Let them eat a piece of chicken, a piece of broccoli, corn tortilla, and one other thing."

Donald Trump is a criminal who should be in jail and not the White House. ICE is a band of lawless goons who shouldn't be allowed to carry guns or badges. And the citizens who peacefully protest the Administration's violence against our nation are the true patriots.

Murder at sea. Murder abroad. Murder at home. SAY IT LOUD AND CLEAR.

Daniel here is the facts. He was in no danger.

Colombian President Petro commenting on the US; “A clan of pedophiles wants to destroy our democracy. To keep Epstein's list from coming out, they send warships to kill fishermen & threaten our neighbor with invasion for their oil."

Kidnapping the leader of a foreign state without any declaration of war and announcing it via social media is full-on rogue state stuff. From the world’s number one superpower.

Made this the other day, and now I have a use for it.

The Pettysburg Address

LUHAN: Is the FCC an independent agency? CARR: I think th--- L: Yes or no C: There's a test for this in the la--- L: It's yes or no, Brendan! On your website, it simply says, man, 'the FCC is independent.' This isn't a trick question C: The FCC is not L: So is your website lying? C: Possibly

"Jason, shouldn't you read the books you already have before buying more?"

Just reminded of the "Scully Effect" - that girls who watched the X-files were more likely to pursue careers in science- but this ignores the bigger "Mulder Effect" which inspired a whole generation of young men to become socially awkward porn addicted conspiracy theorists.

Ingram used to be so good at getting our books to us on time. I blame the robots they hired

have you heard of this thing called "sleep"? You close your eyes and your brain sort of turns off and then you wake up feeling better. I hear it's all the rage with young people. If anyone knows where I can get some, let me know

It's giving

ALTMAN: And so you can use Sora to generate interesting videos of you and your friends, all with AI. FALLON: (giggling) So, heh, so that's a video of me in space, wow! ALTMAN: Exactly. FALLON: Could you generate a video of me where I'm not just a useful clown for fascism? Where my work has meaning?

MAGA calls for the death of people who don't agree with their politics. They even wish slow painful deaths for the FAMILIES of people who don't bow to Trump. Liberals demand hearings and trials for people who violate the Constitution. The two sides are not the same.

Of course the real new bond film should be a young, cool James Bond. Plus a grim, hardcore James Bond. Plus a black James Bond in a metal suit. And a Cyborg James Bond.

"CHICKEN FINGERS is bonded with another cat, CAPTAIN STINKY PANTS. CAPTAIN STINKY PANTS is a charming 20-lb Maine Coon mix who hates children, has moderate bowel incontinence, and only eats sushi-grade tuna. CAPTAIN STINKY PANTS and CHICKEN FINGERS must be adopted together."

OMG🤣
