How it’s done…

In the end, he got Trump what he wanted….the White House…his ask was shutting down every investigation into him. Enter DOGE…..

Now consider the possibility that this man who can't run a federal real-estate management agency will produce magical robots that serve your every need, or rockets that carry people to Mars. He's not going to do it. It's all a con.

emphasis on the utter incompetence tbh

You know whaaat?! Some people have become sponges absorbing the firehose of MAGA hate. You know whaaat?! Ugly is as ugly does. You know whaaat?! Kind, smart, truly patriotic Americans are going to take this country back and you can return to buying “Live Laugh Love” throw pillows at Hobby Lobby.

CRAZY EYES

You know whaaat? Texas was once Mexican territory—and before that, Spanish land and before that, native land (for millennia). Texas Karen, descendant of just the last-arrived white settlers, shouldn’t be so quick to shriek about who doesn’t belong.

“Let me see your Driver’s License” MAGA Moron is cosplaying as a cop🤣 What does she think will happen when she shows the police the photos and video she took of her “encounter”?🤔 Flower Mound, TX has its own share of illegal problems. Look up “prostitution rings found in upscale neighborhoods” 🤦🏻‍♀️

The best year of her life was third grade hall monitor, and it's been downhill ever since.

Greetings from Germany. We know these patterns of fascism—it was truly shitty, but we were liberated by the formerly democratic USA. We hope that our partner America will survive this crisis and soon rise again. Don't let them steal your elections. The 1000-year Reich lasted from 1933 to 1945.

The actions of these evil bullies will be used against them in order to have dramatic show trials while the monsters who gave the orders and facilitated the actions (including META owners and techies) will be treated as completely innocent. /2

Are those ICE jerks aware those glasses are also likely recording everything they do and if the political ground shifts the recordings will be used as evidence against them in order to absolve all their superiors of complicity. /1

It was way too bright and far away to make this out as it was happening, but we apparently captured him adjusting the Meta glasses repeatedly. Can also see a light flashing on and off.

Chatty agent inside the fence today was wearing the stupid glasses, too

Lol

So I put a pothos outside a couple months ago and then forgot about it

BREAKING: A federal judge has ordered the University of South Dakota to reinstate a professor who posted criticism of Charlie Kirk on his Facebook page the day of the shooting, finding the action likely violated the First Amendment. storage.courtlistener.com/recap/gov.us...

Another win for "Fuck you. Make me."

So many women have been talking, writing and warning people of the dangerous ideologies and biases of tech in Silicon Valley, for decades, and it’s so infuriating that so many men (not OP here) just flat out ignore it and act surprised at the technofascists infecting it now

“Give us the evidence that these boats were carrying drugs. Why did you decide to attack rather than interdict?” 25 senators wrote to the president asking about the operations in the Caribbean. “They’ve not answered & that’s likely to lead to War Powers Resolution.” ~Sen Tim Kaine #WarPowersAct

Tonight’s visitor: one damp but undeterred young skunk. Rain on and off through the evening, soft enough to make the air smell green and sharp, heavy enough to leave the ground shining. Fortune: Striped paths cross yours-be mindful, tread soft, and you’ll leave the night unsoured.

In California, different places and different types of buildings have limits on how much rent can be legally increased each year. Tech Equity has an online tool where you can calculate if your rent increase is legal. techequity.us/2024/12/02/i...

What a delight to recap Alien: Earth with Mal and Jo all season, and what a tragedy to accidentally snub Timothy Olyphant: open.spotify.com/episode/4diX...

Speaking of voices under attack…can we be just as loud about Black journalists and comedians who are silenced, even by our so-called liberal outlets. • Joy Reid • Don Lemon • Melissa Harris-Perry • Tiffany Cross • Jemele Hill • Marc Lamont Hill • Karen Attiah • Amber Ruffin

👏👏👏

Goodnight, I’m hoping to wake up to a slew of posts from anti-woke “comedians” who have spent years complaining about cancel culture and the oppression of free speech, defending Kimmel and condemning the F.C.C. Unless it was only an issue when you wanted to make jokes about the trans community?

Trump Blasts UN for Not Solving Wars, Ignores Repeated US Vetoes on Ceasefire truthout.org/articles/tru...

Jessica Chastain slams Apple TV for preemptively caving to Trump https://www.dailykos.com/story/2025/9/24/2345279/-Jessica-Chastain-slams-Apple-TV-for-preemptively-caving-to-Trump?pm_campaign=blog&pm_medium=rss&pm_source=

Hmmm ... Oslo and Copenhagen, too. 🤔

trying to read into their politics one way or the other is falling for the bit they're suicidal and want to go viral so why not write some ramblings on white genocide or hating Israel or whatever it's clickbait, that's the point

the modal domestic terrorist over the next decade is going to be a terminally online 20-something who cooks their brain in irony-poisoned social media spaces and decides to kill a bunch of people as an elaborate shitpost

Fun weird fact - Annabeth Gish and I went to the same church when she was little. When I watch her in things today, I can still see her as a tiny little girl, running up the center aisle after service was over.

Matt Shaw just got a lot of boos at Wrigley when he walked up for his first at-bat since ditching his team Sunday to attend the CK “event.”

It’s rare that one clip can both be grounds for a massive corporate lawsuit and grounds for the 25th Amendment at the same time.

These are not bright guys, sir, and things are getting out of hand. That's not just a quote; assholes like this don't think very far ahead. They're creatures of the moment, relying on intuition, luck and their own (self-believed) charisma to worm out of any trouble.

I suspect an asshole of this caliber is not above flat out lying about what he did or didn't do...and what others in the clubhouse did or didn't say...gambling that whatever their objections (public or private) will be better than facing the shitstorm he's in now.

He said he talked to Counsell and Hoyer and veterans and wanted to make sure he had their support. It stays in the clubhouse, God knows how it was handled, but anybody who didn't tell him what's what can go to hell too. What kind of operation are they running?

The politics don't enter into it. It is a baseball decision, and from that standpoint it is unforgivable. "It was really important to my faith," he said. I don't care. Go to hell. You're a professional ballplayer in a playoff race. If it's not your wife or mother or kids, go sell insurance.

“They’re eating the swans.”

Also: ever since Midnight Mass, I've wanted more Hamish Linklater. And now he's in Gen V, so that's an automatic win for me.

MIDNIGHT MASS won Best Cinema in 2021 for the @genrevision.com GV Awards and I still think it's one of the top 5 pieces of cinema in this decade. A crime against art we can't have this on a 4K physical release any time soon.

No if you want to stop political violence, stop handing out guns like breath mints this isn’t hard

"They're denying science" is maybe the funniest thing Nancy has ever said.

This is why Democratic senators are talking about shutting down the government if Repubs don't bend, & it's a very important reason. "Extensive subsidies that reduce premium costs for millions are set to expire, unless Congress extends them." Details to know: 🧵1/9 www.nytimes.com/2025/09/24/h...

The Kimmel situation at Nexstar and Sinclair is taking a big toll on employees at affiliates. There are a lot of posts like this out there, all very similar. Among other things, this employee says that while Kimmel didn't air, ads promoting his return still did.
