There seems to be an assumption that we either won't have another Democratic president, the Democrats are too ineffectual to use this power in a way they won't like, or they'll just find a way to rule against the Democratic POTUS if/when that happens.

Every legal story now is either Ancient Circuit Judge Delivers Crystal Clear 100 Page Rebuke To Trumpist Overreach or In Unsigned Shadow Docket Decision, 6-3 Majority Declares Trump Can Hunt People For Sport

Weird how the WaPo Editorial page has decided to take two shots in two days at Tim Walz, the same time Trump is saying racist things about Minnesotans. Like it's some type of, IDK, coordinated effort or something.

Haha, oh sorry, I was on mute. I was saying I worry I’ve permanently worn down all the charming edges of myself that others didn’t like and I’ve become dull like a riverstone—and perhaps the only way to make new edges is to fragment into smaller and smaller pieces until nothing is left.

Shut the F*ck Up Friday is early this week because of Thanksgiving, but still observed

"How dare the majority disregard my very important dissent!!" [multiple pages of incoherent ranting about George Soros]

I’m rubbernecking big time but that man really thought he was cooking with the bamboo metaphor

So on Epstein, the Democratic position should be "Trump should resign." If you are a Democratic elected, practice saying "We demand the president's resignation" in front of a mirror as many times as it takes until the dry-heaving that comes from having a phobia about actually doing politics passes.

Joyce Carol Oates spits absolute BARS but also is 1000% incurably, irreparably addicted to Twitter.

So nice to get my weekly Falcons gut punch out of the way early, got the rest of my Sunday ahead of me now

Love my Big Blue State of Georgia.

Remember, we learned in 2021 that a win by the out party in a Virginia gubernatorial election fully nullifies any presidential mandate. I don’t make the rules

Who could have predicted this?

Something about the ChatGPT television ad spots are just...off. The fact there's no "pitch" makes them feel menacing, like ChatGPT is inevitable, so no pitch is necesssary. Do not like.

Actually, seeing a man of color, getting scared, and calling The Police, is pretty typical racist behavior

Uh-oh, the bureaucrats have spoken, we have to fold up tents now www.nytimes.com/2025/10/27/u...

Hey can you summarize the Battle of Midway in three sentences?

Sounds like Brian Snitker was politely, respectfully -- but firmly -- invited to become a front office consultant.

Crypto is forcing ppl to re-learn why we have securities laws; Big Tech is making us re-learn why we have antitrust; sports betting is forcing us to re-learn why we made gambling illegal; and now these guys are going to force us to remember why we have the Geneva Conventions.

Tyler Allgeier is the strongest substance known to man.

Remembering MN house speaker Melissa Hortman, her husband Mark and their beloved dog Gilbert. Murdered in June at their home by a rightwing Trump-voting evangelist, who also shot another MN lawmaker and his wife at THEIR home, 9 and 8 times, respectively (miraculously, they survived).

My main observation from the last few hours of monitoring US social media is that Democrats are universally denouncing political violence and calling for calm while MAGA are escalating language and openly lusting for retribution against broad categories of people they identity as their enemies.

Why would somebody forge the signature of Real Estate Developer Donald Trump in 2003 in a birthday book for his publicly acknowledged friend who was not at that time known as a sexual predator?

GHISLAINE MAXWELL: here we go, boss. a big book of letters from all of your horrible best friends JEFF EPSTEIN: oh neat! look at this one from Donald GHISLAINE: that one's fake actually

authoritarians are afraid of the potential of public broadcasting to unhinge U.S. journalism from the easily exploitable corporatist ad-based model that kisses power's ass for access and merger approvals and deregulation

really feels like housing affordability is one of the most important political issues of our time, affecting nearly every aspect of our lives, and everyday our mainstream political discourse is about whether sour cream is woke or not

Our system of majority rule with checks and balances works pretty well as long the majority party in Congress and their appointed judges don’t unite 100% behind a fascist executive branch.

So we’re just going to stand down and watch the Ukrainians get slaughtered? That’s like, official US policy now?

Rewatched terminator 2 last night. Fun movie about AI leading to nuclear war and how the easiest way to kill someone is to dress up like a cop. Can't say its themes resonate today.

7yo said “you never hear about Elon Musk’s wife,” and I said “he’s not married.” He said “how’d he get all those kids then?” Elon’s weird harem of baby mamas is going to be what causes me to explain the birds and bees.
