Ryanair posted this yesterday lmao

The funeral home told me if I bring Dad‘s ashes to them, they will ship both Mom and Dad (who’s been in Mom’s apartment) from Florida to California, where I live. Although to be honest, I was kind of looking forward to having Dad as a carry-on. He would’ve enjoyed a funny little hat and an accent.

Alarming story that confirms my own reporting along similar lines: Dan Moraff, the political strategist who plucked Graham Platner out of obscurity to run for senate and barely vetted him, was barred from Rep. Summer Lee’s 2022 campaign after three complaints of sexual misconduct.

Being the executor of an estate is easy when you understand nothing legal of the anything because you usually spend your time writing funny words on paper. Also super breezy: crying during every phone call because the Amex guy told you to take care of yourself during such a time.

So not only did an ICE agent shoot an unarmed man in the back of a van and lie about it, they’ve detained three eyewitnesses and are pressuring them to self-deport so they don’t testify. This is horrifying shit.

It was 100% Ryan's intention. No question about it.

there are men on the left who will see right wing men as their allies above left wing women because in their eyes the former confirms masculinity and the latter conveys weakness

Yes. I reject any framing of the Platner story as "progressive vs establishment" or "left vs center." The opposition to him has always been "he's obviously an unrepentant liar and a bad human being." His claimed policy positions were irrelevant, and he had no track record of believing them anyway.

The ICE murder of Lorenzo Salgado Araujo deserves the same fury as Renee Good and Alex Pretti

In 1936 human remains were found in a Swedish bog. The man was 170–180 centimetres (5 ft 7 in–5 ft 11 in) tall and he had an injury on the right side of his cranium and he died probably in the 14th century. The body was in bad condition but his clothes were not.

This guy has said a lot of shitty and fucked up things, but this might be the worst.

Never forget: SHAME WORKS

Feels like a lot of people need investigating. These people are vile.

Seeing waaaaay too many Platner posts attributing pundit rape defense to “stupidity,” or “wowee, what a bad take!” rather than “maybe THAT guy should be investigated because he sure does love rapists. Wonder why?” Because who defends rapists? It’s a mystery, I guess.

Minneapolis, hit me up if you know families in need of car booster seats. We collected a lot of donated boosters for transporting kids to school last winter/spring and would like them to be put to good use. All are used but not expired!

Having a super fuzzy, fluffy cat who has tummy problems is not fun. Because you’ll be going around the house and the cat will walk by, and his backside is just covered in nastiness. Then you get to spend part of your morning wrestling him into the bathtub to clean him off while he plots murder.

I don’t think "Dem HR ladies" is labor coded or working class aligned. It comes from the same place everything that is terrible in the last two years has come from. The backlash to the Me Too and Black Lives Matter movements.

This is an extraordinarily blunt and definitive statement from the Maine Democratic Party—they say Platner has been trying to influence the process of picking his replacement, and they've shot him down cold.

I regret posting this because my mentions are inundated but I’ve now seen a gazillion rape apologia posts and they’re revealing. The theme is: - unsubstantiated - she should have come forward earlier - this is an AIPAC/Israel op - the president is a worse rapist then he is - everyone has flaws

the ongoing defense of Platner tells me that plenty of men on the left hate women more than they love their supposed principles

So I had my post-surgical follow-up! ✔️ I'm healing very well! ✔️ I can fly again! ✔️ I need a full fucking hysterectomy because my surgeon says I'm the most endometriosis-laden bitch she's ever seen! ✔️ HAHAHAHAHA everything is great! ✔️ ...

Exclusive: An ex-girlfriend of Senate candidate Graham Platner told The Post that he repeatedly removed protection without her consent during sex. Lyndsey Fifield is the second woman this week to allege that Platner engaged in nonconsensual sexual conduct.

I really think all the women of America should get a say over what happens to Mitch McConnell‘s body rn. Alive, dead, we have ideas.

Spoke to my friend Mitch McConnell this morning, the senior Senator from Kentucky. He's still recovering in the hospital. We talked for just shy of 20 minutes ... about male eyeliner, purgatory, the unfolding situation with THE OTHERS, and even a little bit of island history.

I just played pickleball with my old friend Mitch McConnell, the senior Senator from Kentucky. The game lasted just shy of 20 minutes, after which time we enjoyed a lovely lunch at his southern mansion prepared by descendants of slaves he personally selected and purchased himself centuries ago.

Any Republican saying they’ve spoken to McConnell today needs to go to prison if (when?) it turns out he’s been braindead this whole time. Absolutely lawless country, so tired of it

Title IX baby.

The US today in one shot:

This is the first time I’m seriously going to cook in a couple of weeks since my surgery. But I think it’s time to make some sauce, yes? I grew them all! 🍅 ❤️ #GardenSky

Well, I for one am shocked that the Nazi is a misogynistic, violent piece of shit.

“Maine Democratic Party leadership is calling on Graham Platner to withdraw as the Democratic nominee for U.S. Senate.”

Under Maine law, Platner would have until 5 PM ET on July 13—a week from today—to withdraw his name and still allow his party to nominate a replacement. Democrats would then have to do so by July 27. legislature.maine.gov/statutes/21-...

I have edited a lot of sexual-assault-accusation articles, and this one easily clears every veracity check: contemporaneous emails with her therapist, a boyfriend who knew, a woman she warned—all before Platner ran for office. Good on Politico for nailing it, and on Jenny Racicot for speaking up.

I was told by a famous digital romance house that I “can’t just be funny for no reason.” I imagined the editor at home with her family. Her kid wants to tell a knock knock joke. But he hasn’t filled out form 4711 A, which means he has not yet established sufficient reason for the joke!

once again reminding folks that police commit violence against women at a higher rate than the general population.

I think this might be one of the most incredible, unsettling and symbolic photos of today’s America I’ve ever seen. I can’t stop looking at it. From Reuters, published on the Guardian website.

At least the moron assholes who set off fireworks at 1 AM didn’t set the park next to us on fire. Hopefully, all their asses itch horribly for a while.

Happy Fourth. On this day, I like to revisit Frederick Douglass’ “What to a Slave is the Fourth of July,” and in particular, this video NPR produced a few years back of portions of the speech being read by Douglass’ descendants. youtu.be/NBe5qbnkqoM?...
