the other thing i post every xmas is this about charlemae hill rollins, an influential chicago librarian and her anthology “christmas gif’,” a collection of stories, poems and recipes from black authors (i think the langston hughes poems were new) www.chicagomag.com/city-life/de...

dude’s rock

going to assume I’m at least the hundredth person to tag @erictime.bsky.social about this

This is how I want people to be posting on Christmas. Do not try to convince Mark Cuban's goofy ass that universal healthcare is right. I want to see pleas for character actors to cleave them in twain with a broadsword. I want people volunteering to get kicked down the Exorcist steps by Alicia Witt.

watching A Christmas Story and all I can think is ~school choice~ blows, neighborhood schools were the best, man. we really lost something.

A more detailed account of the purchase by @ricksteves.bsky.social of a neighborhood hygiene center, his plans to help improve it further, and him calling out a failure to support vulnerable people. What a mensch. Be Rick. www.seattletimes.com/seattle-news...

Realizing your dog is in desperate need of consistent training right before you’re going to leave him with a dog sitter for the weekend and then another week at doggy daycare boarding is perhaps not the best timing 🤦‍♂️

Patreon is fun because it’ll send you an email that will be like “thanks to your generous support and loving spirit, check out this gift of wonder you’ve unlocked” and then it’ll be a bonus podcast from the Piss Boys titled “Derek got hit by a car (again)”

NFL Films made this for all of us. A Carol of the DOINKS.

Jesus, on the cross:

Broke: Santa Claus Woke: Krampus Bespoke: The Little Christmas Fucker

can’t wait for conservatives fall all over themselves to pretend she doesn’t look cool as fuck here

Coats: the child’s natural enemy

if you had to sum up conservative politics in one word it is definitely "grift"

Ah cool, south Philadelphia

genuinely more shocking than the fact that they only just figured out what to do with garbage

Current* conditions near St. Helena Island, MI:

Biden era democrats and party insiders sincerely believe the Rules of Politics are set in stone and that there are refs that will give them points for respecting decorum

wow it is a merry Christmas after all

"I can't believe Star Trek went woke" is the "I can't believe Rage Against The Machine went woke" for scifi nerds

my festive spirit amidst our grimly stupid reality (2025)

And to Tiny Tim, who did NOT die. He was unable to. He still walks among us, cursed to remember in a world where everyone has forgotten. He’s out there now, just beyond the light your lantern throws,

yet again: these are so sick

honestly wondering if we’re approaching the definition of a cover-up at this point, jesus. if not, it is a world-historical bag fumble by Garland. either way history should not be kind to him.

merrick garland set a world record for being bad at your job, colts head coach jeff saturday was better at that job than merrick garland was at his

two (2) people working the registers at Dick’s Sporting Goods on December 23rd, sure why not

blue states should create escrow accounts into which citizens pay their federal taxes but are withheld by the state until the federal government stops acting like its only obligated towards states that support the maga agenda

funny I thought the portland project "based in black spatial tradition" was ODOT blasting another lane of I-5 through several east side historically black neighborhoods

It's Christmas Eve Eve. This morning's start in Old Town, Chicago.

I know she's just kind of saying whatever, but it's on-brand for Bari Weiss to review a damning story about the US sending people to a concentration camp and respond "we can't air this, have you even asked Tom Homan if he feels bad about any of it yet?" Perfect readout of who she sees, and doesn't.

yet again impressed and dumbfounded how their only move is “based AI slop” and it’s important to remember how few mouth-breathing degenerates there really are cheering this stuff on. we are going to win.

like so many statements and actions from this sundowning pissbaby my 11-year-old could spot why this is unconstitutional in a few seconds but I am prepared for a whole lot of adults in positions of power & influence to claim it’s fine and as a matter of fact actually good.

Inshallah

CHOTINER: and when you're in water you PARTICLE MAN: don't get wet, that's right. CHOTINER: And this is because PARTICLE MAN: the water gets me instead. It becomes particle-manish CHOTINER: There's been some debate on this point. Triangle Man, for example PARTICLE MAN: I think we're done here

Losing men (suck) AND white people (also suck) is catastrophic for a Republican lmao get rekt

call us old fashioned but, if you've built a machine that makes child porn, we really don't care if can do anything else. unplug the machine.

I'll tell you one thing, this man BELONGS in Indiana

it's 200 pages about how to not get a joke

I highly recommend watching this segment, not just because the CBS News execs and the White House didn’t want you to, but because these men were tortured and they deserved to have their voices heard.

my family's summer cottage (RIP) was a half hour from Interlochen. if you want to listen to classical radio you just turn the dial to the Interlochen station. it's THE place to go if you're a serious musician as a kid. hard to overstate how fucked this is.

I don't think people realize how big a deal Interlochen is in the classical music world for kids. Premier place in the country to spend the summer if you are a band kid. For $25k Epstein was allowed to use it to recruit victims. This scandal touches so many parts of society.

John Beast operates with an intentionality that makes his whole deal so much darker. He has calculated how many of us would dunk on his most recent stunt and decided to go ahead with it.

I killed a man in Reeno (Oklahoma) just to watch him die are you going to Seattle Franerisco?

it's really remarkable how bad targeted ads are given how much we've destroyed in order to have them. "Oh you bought a coffee maker... here's thirty five ads for coffee makers!" really? that's the future we're going with?

this bridge has been under construction for so long they're going to have to rehabilitate it the second it opens due to old age
