Happy birthday, Dr. King.

Just give him all the Nobels — Peace, Physics, Literature, whatever — if he’ll go away.

The complaint is difficult reading, but if you need a condensed timeline of events in Minneapolis... I think I missed this incident entirely: www.courtlistener.com/docket/72132...

Once again, Seahawks should have sent Lynch up the middle.

Come on, Canada. Trump must have done some Canada-adjacent criming to justify an extraction. Time to step up.

It’s not New Year’s Eve until Anderson Cooper starts giggling.

By all accounts, Uncle Fester never wed. Perhaps the lightbulb in mouth trick was not the aphrodisiac he imagined. His haberdasher must also shoulder some blame.

Timothy Ratliff should have bought a pardon before he left the White Lotus.

Just never expected the U.S. to act boldly in defense of European hate speech.

Sean Glendening is the man covering up the Trumpstein files.

AI consumes huge quantities of electricity and water, but it's really fueled by hype. Lots, and lots, and lots of hype produced by men whose jobs have always been making meager achievements sound revolutionary. And right now, they're playing history's biggest game of "fake it till you make it."

I’m a single issue voter and my issue is that those busses that bend in the middle should make accordion noises

Of course, if you rescued the survivors instead of blowing them up, and they really were drug smugglers, they could give you info about supply chains, ringleaders, etc., but nahhhh.

This is fu*king outrageous! The federal government on Saturday dismissed charges against a Utah plastic surgeon accused of throwing away COVID-19 vaccines, giving children saline shots instead of the vaccine and selling faked vaccination cards. apnews.com/article/utah...

Easy to see the CG swastika reg change as testing the waters by DHS. If they can sanitize the swastika, they can more easily bring swastika inked or displaying men into the DHS paramilitaries. And create a more welcoming environment for neo-Nazis. Jewish Republicans: seen enough yet?

Strange way to honor hundreds of thousands of Americans who gave their lives to fight against these hate symbols.

My favorite sentiment of the Continental Op: At forty I could get along on gin as a substitute for sleep, but not comfortably. (From the Dain Curse)

“Some of the News That’s Fit to Print”

God, it’s like reverse Q-Anon — pedophiles, billionaires, Russia, Trump. — except it’s all true.

Sunday means Slylock Fox.

If you are Deneb of Cygnus, you take no shot from pissant stars like the Sun.

I tried Elon Musk's Wikipedia clone and boy is it racist www.sfgate.com/sf-culture/a...

I’m dying and I don’t even care who wins

Roki Sasaki should be out trick or treating with the other kids.

World Series beards rated: 1. Mark Prior 2. Everybody else except 3. Will Klein

I want the game to end on a Merkle’s Boner.

These are screenshots from the ACTUAL WHITE HOUSE PAGE on the timeline of the East Wing. You may not believe what you re seeing. Go and check for yourself. This...I don't even know what to say about this.

Fishermen get murdered. Drug kingpins get pardons.

No matter where I travel in this land, there is always a lady from Texas on the loudspeaker telling me not to accept bombs from strangers before I get on the flight. Good advice!

Ridiculous police presence at Las Vegas No Kings

OK. Everybody go out. AND BLOCK!! — every touch football play ever called

M’s, don’t drill another hole in my heart here.

Oh for fuck’s sake

this rules so much

Feh

Judging from the commercials, cancer sufferers must love playoff baseball.

I had three golf balls raptured yesterday.

Tough to watch Bessent promise to use US $ to boost Millei in the upcoming Argentinian elections and not conclude that Trump’s attempts to interfere with U.S. elections will be less than a total shitshow.

Dutch late night TV has its take

Way to shame yourself, UK!
