Even Matt Walsh isn’t buying it

Epstein is the most garish and harrowing manifestation of this but oligarchy makes life miserable in a thousand other ways. A core point of democracy is that no one should have so much power that they can make themselves everybody's problem. We should have a political party that believes that

The Epstein emails should really end the debate over whether society should have billionaires. "Do you want there to be a class of people so powerful they can fuck your kids and no one will even try to do anything" seems like an easy sell if everyone in politics wasn't trying to get on their payroll

““What we’re going to have is a real-world experience of when unvaccinated people get measles,” Dr. Milhoan, the head of the vaccine advisory panel, said, sounding somewhat excited about the possibility. “What is the new incidence of hospitalization?” he asked. “What’s the incidence of death?””

The arrests of journalists Don Lemon and Georgia Fort are a test for every MSM member with a platform. If you are not voicing your outrage at this blatant violation of the First Amendment, you are utterly discredited as a journalist.

I saw this bald eagle perched atop the cell tower overlooking the student entrance to the stadium this morning. I'd never seen one in the "wild" before today. I'll take it as a harbinger for good things to come...

Jonas Store, later: “As regards the Nobel Peace Prize, I have on several occasions clearly explained to Trump what is well known, namely that it is an independent Nobel Committee, and not the Norwegian government, that awards the prize.”

Denied Peace Prize, Trump Tells Norway He’ll Push for Greenland

“Considering your Country decided not to give me the Nobel Peace Prize for having stopped 8 Wars PLUS, I no longer feel an obligation to think purely of Peace…” - Trump, in a message to Norwegian leader Jonas Store.

Thin, crackly crust that snaps with every bite Rich, sweet sauce spread edge to edge Unmistakable squares cut for sharing (or not) Melted cheese that refuses to play by the rules Pepperoni laid on generously, no apologies Proudly different from every other pizza joint Every slice tastes like Maryland nostalgia Dependable, comforting, exactly what you wanted One bite in, and you already know you'll be back

The local pizza place was advertising a contest: like and comment on their social media post for a chance to win a $100 gift card. I couldn’t resist, so I wrote an acrostic poem…

The “prosecute the former regime at every level” candidate has my vote in 2028.

The appropriate Democratic response is that the president is out of control.

You don’t need to repeat his Maduro talking points. Stop being pussies.

Oh: and immediately after the victim gave birth to the illegitimate child conceived by rape, he had the newborn baby murdered and dumped into Lake Michigan.

There. Is. Worse. To. Come.

2.8 GB out of 300 GB (0.93%) of the Epstein files released—by his own DOJ, mind you—and we have already learned about his rape of a then-13-year-old who, 5 years later, after finally bringing her allegations to the authorities, “committed suicide” by a single gunshot to the back of her own head…

Incredibly disgusting. How vast the gaping void at the core of Trump’s being must be for him to even *think* it appropriate or warranted to aggrandize himself by putting his name on another man’s—let alone another President’s—MEMORIAL…

What a terrible person is he.

A gravestone: John F. Kennedy May 29, 1917 November 22, 1963 JFK’s name is drawn over with red crayon. Donald Trump, in the same red crayon, written above.

When Scalia rewrote the Second Amendment in Heller, I warned that he would have “blood on his hands” from the carnage he was enabling.

The Second Amendment protects a “militia” right, which was the understanding of the courts for 200 years. The “individual right” rewrite is a suicide pact.

"Was the earth made to preserve a few covetous, proud men to live at ease, and for them to bag and barn up the treasures of the earth from others, that these may beg or starve in a fruitful land; or was it made to preserve all her children?"
- Gerrard Winstanley, The New Law of Righteousness (1649)

Yessssss!!!

Possibly, not sure. The tweet I remember best/most is one they did during Trump’s first inauguration—so, back in 2017: they absolutely roasted Roger Stone (and Stone’s appearance) in a series of photos of Stone with their commentary/jokes. Legendary twitter thread…

Does anybody else remember the Twitter account @gothmissfrizzle?

Love the implication that people were still exploited and worked beyond reasonable limits while using the Slop Machine 5000. Nothing ever gets better for workers, only for executives!! I love the future!!

A screenshot from Madden ‘26. The Commanders have just scored a TD, fullback John Riggins, who ran it in, is doing a dance in the end zone. The caption, alongside his name, position and number, incorrectly shows an image of Buccaneers fullback Mike Alstott.

You sure about that, EA?

Crazy delicious! Last weekend I found out (international supermarket) Lotte sells ‘em for like $1.99/lb. (This is about 1/2 lb.) Seared in olive oil & butter. Then deglazed/covered with ginger-miso ramen broth to soften. Reduced liquid to a sauce. Texture and flavor were outrageously scallop-like.

This stupid motherfucker only even *learned* the word “sedition” after hearing it used to describe what happened on January 6th. Also: nazi eagle.

About 15 golden brown circles of goodness, each scored in a crosshatch pattern, searing off in an enameled cast iron.
