Weird how The Free Press was able to publish all of these without comment from the Washigton University Transgender Center at St. Louis Children's Hospital.

It’s the “season of love and giving”…but this year, doesn’t it seem more like a “season of fear and taking”? Like many of you, I’ve been saddened by the human impact of draconian government budget cuts and how angry many housed Americans are at unhoused Americans. 🧵 1 of 9

“I’d love to get into it.” Allow Kirk Cousins to take you to school

The best part of this amazing short film is when the snow plow shows up and you're like AWW YEAH HERE COMES OUR HERO, and then it just glides into failure

Virginia Heffernan wrote this shortly after the 2016 election and it still holds true

ICE PEPPER SPRAYED A ONE-YEAR-OLD because her mother was filming them.

holy crap watch this youtu.be/ROJZntCBZCc?...

The coolest ever

This is a truly remarkable moment. Simultaneously debunking Kristi Noem’s lie in real-time and elevating the story of a veteran who was deported under Trump & Noem’s dehumanizing, belligerent deportation policy.

Brett Kavanaugh's "minor inconvience" now includes beating people up and cutting off their wedding rings for [checks notes] "observing ICE from a distance."

I saw a lot of people posting their favorite cover songs and thought I’d add mine to the mix

It is absolutely wild that the guy who won’t stop yelling about law and order is now personally stepping in to keep January 6 documents hidden from the police officers who were attacked that day. He knows exactly what’s in those files and he is terrified the country will see it.

This is incredible.

“I’d have no problem releasing the video” “I didn’t say that, you said that. Fake news.” 5 days apart 😬 (From @therecount.com )

If you've ever been to a naturalization ceremony, you know they're filled with people whose palpable love of this country is twenty times stronger than the pinched "patriotism" of any native-born MAGA chud. Just unspeakable assholery.

Sincerely, if I was a Dem executive and had an idea this was going to happen, I’d deploy armed officers to bar any intruders from the citizenship ceremony until it was complete. A sacred space and a sacred obligation, and letting fascist goons pick people off at the front door is an abomination

I think everybody at NPR is glad our Susan Stamberg left us an advance obit for Frank Gehry. A legend on a legend.

There are many reasons to remember the life and work of Frank Gehry today but want to highlight that he was a good employer who knew how to run an office and took construction seriously.

I worked for Frank Gehry. Because of him, I went to The Simpsons Halloween party, had a key to the Disney Concert Hall, met amazing artists. Frank was wonderful to me. When I left his office, he said you'll do big things, just try to stay out of politics. Sorry, Frank. Your memory is a blessing ❤️

wtf is a FIFA peace prize? that's like being an NFL laureate in physics

They’re killing people as a twitter joke. It’s depraved. Can’t let yourself lose the capacity to be appalled and disgusted and outraged by this.

They want us to be appalled, because caring about rules of war and human lives and the law all mark us out as inferior to them in their sick worldview.

I would love a still photo with the names of all of every single pathetic, sycophantic jackasses standing behind Trump and going along with this

Reminder

These are good moments to remember that the CEOs of all the biggest companies in America are happy to go to White House dinners and slap this guy’s back. They do not care about this. Remember this, years from now, when they want you to forget.

Fucking Nazis

The Last Temptation of Homer is a funny episode of TV that is ultimately very sweet and humane.

I promise, it's the last time I post about it. But the before/after is just too good to not share. Source: comune di Bologna.

Donald Trump’s MAGA Republican Party. Where fear and intimidation rules.

Habba: There were individuals that were saying that this should be a safe harbor, a safe haven. Why? America is America because we protect our own.

Oh this is good.

Professor Jack Goldsmith, head of George W. Bush Justice Department's Office of Legal Counsel (OLC): "I do not believe that even the Bondi OLC could legally justify the events the Post reported." "There can be no conceivable legal justification for what the Washington Post reported."

There are specific reasons Trumpists want war on Venezuela, but there‘s a generic one: they crave power to make war on anyone, any time, for completely fabricated reasons, and then to use the guise of war to increase violence and repression everywhere, including home. They are lawless bestial scum.

Exactly 80 years ago tomorrow (Nov. 30, 1945), German submarine commander Heinz-Wilhelm Eck and two of his former subordinates on the U-852 were shot by Allies in Hamburg for killing the survivors of a ship they had sunk. Pete Hagueseth should be very worried. www.executedtoday.com/2009/11/30/1...

Pete Hegseth keeps demanding to be taken seriously and then spends all his time talking down to accomplished military leaders, rebranding his department and renaming ships, engaging in culture wars bullshit, shitting all over the military's sense of ethics and generally making an ass of himself.

It's not an accident that this kind of thing happens every time Republicans are ascendant in national politics

LOL. lmao even.

i just want to say that i wrote this exactly one year ago.

I found the leak at the White House

“is you conducting a google search about a criminal fucking conspiracy?”

This is...sort of brilliant.

Coinbase donated to Trump's $300 million White House ballroom project as an appeal to the administration, Emilie Choi, the cryptocurrency exchange's president and COO, said at Axios' BFD event today.

The reason we have laws* against bribery is that companies will absolutely bribe politicians at the very first opportunity if it is good for the bottom line, because they see it as a sound business decision, not a civilizational betrayal. /1

If the President can impose his own taxes and use the proceeds to spend on his own projects, all without Congress, we have a dictatorship not a constitutional republic.
