Any answer other than “the president is a historically stupid man only now he has dementia” is journalistic malpractice

I miss Peter Jennings.

Hey, if you're feeling like life has passed you by and you're too old to start something new, remember that John Brown was 55 before he killed his first pro-slavery settler in the Kansas Territory. It's never too late to follow your dreams.

The drunk uncle theory.

You don’t argue with the casually homophobic uncle at Thanksgiving dinner to change his mind; you argue so that the closeted cousin at the kids table knows there’s safe people and better possibilities out there

Give her what she really wants for Valentine’s Day: A bookshelf with a rolling ladder, a vintage bottle of Château Margaux, a basket of fresh pastries, and a candlelight meal where she can dine on the hearts of all who've wronged her.

People can have different political opinions about immigration policy. Political differences are fine, healthy for a democracy.

But if you’re okay with this, that’s not a political opinion. That is a moral failing.

pay no attention to that tiny pathetic man with the shit-filled diaper, behind the curtain

Next time somebody tries to get me to justify the existence of the humanities, I’ll just point out how for the past two Super Bowls we’ve all jumped online and engaged in collective semiotics and hermeneutics of the half-time show as text.

A Siberian cat is transfixed by Bad Bunny.

Fully enjoyed at my house.

Just spitballing here, but maybe we should celebrate all this beautiful stuff and have a better country?

Ossoff: "You're seeing what I'm seeing, right? The president posting about the Obamas like a Klansman."

My favorite part in the Ken Burns American Revolution series is right at the end when one of the historians says "it's obvious that Thomas Jefferson did not believe that all men are created. But I do"

Who is the audience here? Cause i saw a lady get murdered and i want it ripped down to the studs!!!

All of this happened with basically no help from elected officials of the opposition party. This was entirely the people.

The Catholic Church is calling for defunding ICE. The Episcopalian bishops are all out calling for people to put their bodies in the streets. Make of that what you will.

They kill us for their sport.

As a matter of practical reality, the idea that the minute Trump invokes the Insurrection Act all resistance is futile, Trump has won, Game Over is nonsense. That’s just regime propaganda. Let us not perpetuate it. Make them earn every inch of creeping authoritarianism.

A reminder to the news media: “conflicting accounts” is what you say BEFORE the incontrovertible video evidence appears. After that, your job is to ask why one side is lying, not to repeat the lie and pretend no one knows the truth.

Everyone giving goku energy from the spirit bomb

Every time there’s slightly irregular news from the White House.

He was 12 when Carson Beck was a freshman in college.

I know people on Bsky know this but I hope it filters out: The feds are OCCUPYING the Twin Cities. This is a blockade, a siege. They are shutting down economic and civic activity. They are conducting "papers please" stops. They are criminalizing being a bystander/witness.

You could be next.

This whole administration is nothing more than a clearinghouse for little boys whose daddies never loved them.

We're going to need a bigger Hague.

the throughline is “I can hurt whoever I want, and no one can stop me.” that’s the central tenet of his governance. there is no choosing between the bad things. the problem is one central bad thing which manifests daily in a thousand ways

hey, georgia?

what the actual fuck

At least he’s doing ads with Ken Nugent on the radio broadcast.
