Worth it.

#52WeeksOfFavourites (10/26) #MusicChallenge Name songs from debut albums As Squeeze has just released the album that might have been their debut 50 years ago, here’s a track from their actual debut: www.youtube.com/watch?v=0DNj...

"It's got ELECTROLYTES!"

A handful of Republicans in Congress & Supreme Court can end this nightmare any time they choose, and history will remember them as saviors of the republic, no matter what terrible things they did to US in last 10 years: insane we cannot find a few volunteers for this plum deal!

A sobering read. www.postandcourier.com/news/epstein...

Wow, that whole "There's no difference between the two presidential candidates" thing aged well, didn't it?

I think it's great that the president put on his most solemnly branded baseball cap to receive the returning coffins of soldiers killed in the unnecessary war he launched to distract from his failing presidency and pedophilia scandal. Look at that gold-like letting. Classy as shit.

I truly do think all of the "Noem out, Mullin in" posts and stories are failing American democracy right now! Trump is announcing his nominee. That's it. If the Senate majority wants to confirm him, they're a part of this—even after knowing what they know now. And that matters come November.

We used to call him "Mayor Emmanuelle" (in reference to an "adult film" of the 1970s), because, like the old joke about porn scripts, every time you'd turn the page there'd be a new way to get reamed.

I appeared in a music video as the hands of Andrew Bird.

By the way, TPM let me spend three days on this, which is what it takes to wade through expensive piles of bullshit white papers. Please consider supporting TPM during our annual membership drive. It is currently 25 percent off! talkingpointsmemo.com/memberships

FYI, @colorado.gov Ms. Griswold is not the only one who feels this way.

*whisper* I think they're voguing...

I have a feeling, based on fact, that Karoline is an idiot.

Cheyenne, the pup that I found along the highway yesterday and her human family stopped by to visit this afternoon and offer a reward for my help, which I of course refused. As you can see by her smile, that debt is paid in full. 🐶 ❤️

This is why primaries matter. You want to move the party, do it now, don't wait till October to start complaining.

A good read.

Now would be a good time for anyone who wants to learn about recent Iranian history to read this. It is well worth your time and money (I am sure your local library has it if you don’t want to purchase it).

Following a white man to war because you disliked the sound of a black woman laughing will go down in American history as one of the dumbest acts of self-sabotage ever.

Just a reminder that there are still loads of broadcasting outlets who actually love broadcasting and do it well—please see wdcb.org for an example of a place that will never use AI.

Just saying, but when people are trying to do everything they can to prevent you from voting, that’s when you absolutely need to vote. Ready to make this the biggest midterm turnout in history?

Farewell to a woman I knew only as a credit, but if you've ever seen the work she did on Alan Moore's Swamp Thing, you'll know why it was a name to remember.

Indeed. There's nothing I could say about any candidate that their record can't say better.

Every senator who voted to confirm RFK Jr owns this tragedy. Every single one.

This post reminds me of the time my wife and I were watching an episode of "Batman" and she wondered what company in Gotham City was so involved in making and distributing knockout gas, because they clearly understood the market.

So, it look like there's even more to boycott...

Coming to a scene near you! Don't miss it!
