The gap in quality between Bluey and other animated kid's shows is honestly mind-boggling.

True Lies is underrated.

I’m thinking this morning about all the people I spoke to last year who were absolutely convinced, and tried to convince me, that Trump would be antiwar compared to Biden and Harris.

In the past week alone he has attacked Nigeria and then Venezuela and also threatened to attack Iran (again).

Just woke up even angrier. Impeach, convict, remove. Draft articles now. Either we have a representative government or we don’t. Do not shut up about this until there’s a vote.

I think they nailed the finale of Stranger Things. So satisfying.

Sure, everything costs more than it did a year ago, but at least you got this, right? Right?

Are Ms. Rachel and Sesame Street the closest show we have to Mr. Rogers Neighborhood right now?

Any others? Maybe outside of the US?

Trump Wrongly Indicted Me, I’ll Rightly Impeach Him | Kat Abughazaleh Speaks at Lincoln Memorial
Trump Wrongly Indicted Me, I’ll Rightly Impeach Him | Kat Abughazaleh Speaks at Lincoln Memorial YouTube video by Kat Abughazaleh

Impeachment isn’t an option, it’s a necessity. I know firsthand the lengths Trump is willing to go in order to silence dissent.

Impeach, convict, remove. And if our current leaders won’t do it, they need to step aside for people who will: www.youtube.com/watch?v=jo54...

The screenshot shows the website’s header with the Media Matters logo, navigation icons, and a headline that reads: β€œMegyn Kelly questions whether Jeffrey Epstein’s desire for β€˜very young teen types’ made him a pedophile.” A sub-headline quotes Kelly saying, β€œI think there is a difference. There’s a difference between a 15-year-old and a 5-year-old.” Below it are byline details indicating the article was written by Media Matters staff and published on November 12, 2025, at 1:38 PM EST.

We're in the "raping young teenage girls isn't pedophilia" part of the cope from MAGA.

These people are evil.

Pentagon readying thousands of Guard β€˜reaction forces’ as U.S. mission widens The Defense Department’s newly established β€œquick reaction force” within the National Guard is being readied for civil unrest missions in U.S. cities.

There's a whole lot of polling places they're going to need to simultaneously interfere with. www.washingtonpost.com/national-sec...

I have been charged in a federal indictment sought by the Department of Justice.

This political prosecution is an attack on all of our First Amendment rights. I’m not backing down, and we’re going to win.

in Demolition Man, Sylvester Stallone plays a supercop from the violent 1990s frozen in time and sent to the future. He winds up fighting a group of terrorists until he realizes they're just trying to steal food, at which point he refuses to continue attacking them

Was there anything else about the video that might merit inclusion in the headline?

I'm not like an expert on the english language or anything but how the f*** does bombing people "test" a ceasefire rather than like... make a mockery of it?
