One last quick hit from the defibrillator and away we go!!
One last quick hit from the defibrillator and away we go!!
2:00: Donald Trump announces from his deathbed that he is firing J. D. Vance and appointing Ivanka Trump Vice-President. 2:17 Trump dies. Ivanka Trump becomes the 48th President of the United States, and first woman in the office. Insane? Yep. Illegal? Definitely. Impossible? Not even close.
It’s all shit now. Maybe it always was, I guess. But even if that was so, there was this veneer of decency. Even if it wasn’t as pure as it seemed, suspension of disbelief was a possibility. But now? It’s all shit now. Ten years of shit.
Where’s his big beautiful hair?
My god, what a stupid, stupid species we are. reader.foreignaffairs.com/2025/08/28/w...
Wow, and he didn’t look all that alive even then…
Please please PLEASE let this be the endgame.
Not enough gold appliqué! SAD! THANK YOU FOR YOUR ATTENTION TO THIS MATTER.
I always thought Monica Rambeau’s original hairstyle design was lazy, or at least was rendered lazily. I don’t remember it ringing true (apologies if I’m trespassing).
This is a hell of a letter. “The intentional eroding of trust in low-risk vaccines…will bring us to a pre-vaccine era where only the strong will survive and many if not all will suffer….Eugenics plays prominently in the rhetoric being generated…”
What about the transgender angle? They’ll get all kinds of mileage out of that. Riley Gaines rides again.
Well that’s nice.
That’s a funny record. There’s something frosty and sterile about it to my ear, which is especially funny to think about when you consider it was recorded at AIR in Montserrat.
When I look at how few traitors stretched ropes after the Civil War, and actually got statues raised of them and military bases named for them, the whole “free the slaves good guys/bad guys” narrative vanishes in a disappointing puff of the smoke of my naïveté.
Exactly. Roll it back…to what? To the state of affairs that let all this happen? Thanks, no. Let’s not rebuild on the foundation that made the damn house collapse in the first place.
The Trump thing is absolutely correct. But Hillary botched that bad. The Clinton name is synonymous with untrustworthiness, and she tries to pass it off like nothing happened? That was a mortal blow to her candidacy.
This is a form of child abuse. "A.i." damages people's ability to think critically, robs people of the joy and human experience of creating art, and exposes them to propaganda controlled by fascist billionaires. Obscene. Do not let your kids participate in this. Yell at anyone who pushes it.
Gotta love a Mad Magazine shoutout!
It’s a Republican thing to think that if somebody else is doing better, they must be doing worse. That if their preposterous lead in a race (that isn’t a race at all) diminishes in the slightest, they’re losing.
“Handshakes”. On his left hand. Cool, that explains it.
Obvs fired his makeup guy for getting him caught.
“Many people say to me, sir, with tears running down their face, sir, how can forced sexual slavery be such a big deal? Why can’t they just get over it, sir? THANK YOU FOR YOUR ATTENTION IN THIS MATTER!”
Hey, they could even get it right and Donald Trump, with his prepositioned ring of steel won’t let them into town. Crazy? Absolutely. But you watch.
I used to think my grandmother was religious because she always had televangelists on TV. But she was just a stupid superstitious old lady. A product of her time and place, sure…but it’s on a body to look at your time and place and either buy in or buy out.
I’ve thought about this, and what I came up with is is what’s their parents taught them. The ideology is irrelevant; it’s the familial continuity that matters.
Naturally. The messiah of the stupid+asshole electoral bloc is living up to his mandate.
It’s the new way business is done. This is how it is now. And while I’d hope for it, I wouldn’t expect it to ever go back.
Try Lexington and Concord.
Aren’t the Twins kind of a young franchise for what I thought this thing was supposed to be about?
So…not a fleet?
Look, if bringing Trump down brings down the Clintons too…well, that’s not a dealbreaker for me. I don’t have any wiggle room when it comes to slavery.
The underlying point, as silly as it sounds, is that that the things that have happened…have happened. All the good things that America could sometimes be and do are essentially over. It’s time to suck it up and see what there is to be salvaged from the wreckage. There is no going back.
If you compare footage from this week to footage from a year ago, it really does look like he's dying.
That’s an unhealthy man right there. He’d be in hospice care if he was anybody else in the world.
How can you even START filming if the script is still being written? This is going to be a hot steaming bowl of AI slop.
Big Oil can’t own the Sun.
youtu.be/AIoxg6aSIso?...
Didn’t somebody actually track those shitty press-on accessories down on Amazon?
Ten percent? Why not 1500 percent?
To be fair, that might be his “Four Seasons Total Landscaping” out this time around.
State ownership of corporations is MAGA? Boy have I got news for you poor saps…
TEN WARS? So many! Who’s a big boy? Hey, can anybody name for me the wars Trump stopped?
Could a body look dumber, weaker, more scared, than by wearing a hat claiming—in the third person, no less—that they’re right about everything?
Oh, they’re out there. By the tens of thousands. They like him because he’s loathsome. They like him because they too are disliked for being terrible, stupid people, so they relate to him, but he embraces it and seems confident and powerful. He validates their awfulness. He is their shitbag messiah.
They’re so eager to get back to playing by the rules. My dudes, the rule book is GONE. They ripped it up, burned it, and pissed on the ashes. Get with it or get the fuck out of here already.
That’s a church I would go to.
Post a non religious picture you think of as holy
Listen, there’s something I’ve got to get off my chest: comics canon or not, this ‘Ultraman’ guy in the new Superman move is bullshit. There is one Ultraman, and this is what he looks like. Shuwatch, bitches.
Totally legit, normal democracy type stuff.
Well, that ought to be the modern equivalent of Lexington and Concorde. But we’ll see, I guess. As long as there’s a dollar menu at McDonalds most Americans won’t give a fuck. www.cnn.com/2025/08/18/u...
I keep marvelling that there are Palestinians left in Gaza for Israel to kill.
Dude’s a douche for the actual content on the hat, granted, but you have to be one sorry sack of shit in general to have front row season tickets for a baseball team that you always use and then always wear a hat other than the home team’s.
Sidebar: how much do you think Donald Trump actually weighs? He’s got to be north of 300, right? I mean, he’s not short, even without the lifts in the shoes. Look at that jacket. That’s got the fit of a 300-pounder’s jacket. Believe me, I know.
Woof. That’s serious cognitive decline right there.
At first glance I thought the dollop of stuff was a hole through the hand. Like it was the vanishing cream you’d see in old cartoons!
You prog nerd you! 🤣
The fuck is ‘KEFIR’?!?!
“The Party told you to reject the evidence of your eyes and ears. It was their final, most essential command.”
It’s his wheelhouse: a reality show. A celebrity roast. He’s perfect for it, and vice versa.
If this offend you, man have I got news for you about dog shows…
I remember in So I Married An Axe Murderer the Mike Myers character has a huge place in San Francisco. Occupation? Poet.
Drunk again.
These are the guys who are such big fans of masculinity? Hiding under their desks from Outside?
The left still has a gag reflex vis a vis “fair play”. Conservatives are like religious zealots. It’s so important to them that they keep America white and Christian that no skullduggery is off limits. To paraphrase, if God be for us, anything goes.
I can't help but think maybe he wants to cordon off DC as a way to control any damage the midterms might do to his grip on power. Like, say, not admitting any Democratic winners to the Big Beautiful Demilitarized Zone. Crazy? Absolutely. Inconceivably off-brand? Not in the least.
Jews in Vienna forced to scrub streets watched by SS & SA men
Surprised to hear that there were still 27 Palestinians left for Israel to kill. Those guys were taking some serious notes during the Holocaust.
And I just keep thinking I am beyond surprise or revulsion anymore. How naive am I!
I had that as a kid. Man, we as a generation really had to apply our imagination to a lot of our toys. Curiously, I don’t remember minding all that much.
In capitalism, profit is the only metric. Decency, fairness, safety, sustainability? Barely blips on the radar, unless they result in a PR crisis that might impinge(wait for it) profitability.
These fucking Make America Great Again guys with their "hey, how can it be a war crime if we've done it too?" Dude, you're so close to getting it...
Man, we've really failed as a society. I'm just...I don't even know what to say. www.nytimes.com/athletic/654...
I can Nazi where you’re going with this.
Wow, he reached into the playbook and pulled out lebensunwertes Leben…
That stuff will pry right off. It’s stick on plastic from Amazon. Pure glitzy trash—and thereby, perfectly appropriate.
No wonder the poor dumb bastard doesn’t understand how there can’t be price reductions past 100%.
Hey commish, Alex Cora was just interviewed on The Leadoff Spot and he was talking about how his kids make up rules in their backyard baseball. He mentioned the Bananas, which was interesting, seeing as he’s, you know…
It ain't going away, no it ain't going away....
“Sir, are the Epstein Files up there?”
“Do any playground hoopsters aspire to be Harlem Globetrotters” is a better comp.
“regulatory loopholes”. Wow it’s almost as if government regulations are meant to keep people alive and safe.
Wow. I mean, even for this guy and these times…wow.
We’re not surprised at all by this, right? He’s always said he won’t accept a result that he doesn’t like. This is actually right on brand for Trump.
I used to wonder how somebody could go bankrupt running a casino. I don’t wonder about that anymore.
The man who just fired the head of the Bureau of Labor Statistics because their numbers supposedly weren’t accurate just claimed that he lowered drug prices in America by 1500%.
WHERE IS THE FOLLOW-UP QUESTION? WHY IS NO ONE FOLLOWING UP?
Why do high school dropouts who get rich and famous for la-la-laing suddenly think that they’re brilliantly insightful scientists? www.comicsands.com/banks-gay-tr...
The genius businessman, ladies and gentlemen. This country deserves exactly what it’s getting.
HUGE Janelle Monae fan here. She’s the great genius of her times.
Cool. Cool cool cool.
Must be nice. But also, there but for the grace of god…
“The truth is, these are not very bright guys, and things got out of hand.”
Always have sworn by it and always will. If you can’t hold it, you don’t own it. If you can’t sell it, you didn’t buy it.
It baffles me that no one at the DNC thought of this at the time: if somebody’s technically savvy and unethical enough to hack your email account, it stands to reason that they’re savvy and unethical enough to make up fake emails. Instant plausible deniability.
What a horribly hateful solution to a nonexistent problem. Way to go, MAGA.
Maybe if she’d finished high school she’d have a better understanding of what government actually is. If she really represents them, Colorado’s 4th district must consist of some stupid motherfuckers.
A grifter who knows his marks.
Data is the enemy of the demagogue.
Oh, let Gramps nap already! Dude is almost 80!
