@daralind.bsky.social , upon reading this:"I can tell you're really angry because you're using the most baroque language and haven't simplified the structure of your sentences." What can I say? She gets me.

I know this is a few days back, but keeping this in the daylight.
Trump’s weekend of humiliation was complete: mocked as frail at home, snubbed abroad by Xi, Modi, and Putin, and forced into a proof-of-life stunt. The dictator cosplay collapses when the world just laughs in his face.
Is this really what people think it would look like if he wasn’t working for Russia???
I know, I know, but: The president of the US saying, literally, "we're going in" in reference to sending the military to an American city for no reason beyond terrorizing the local population should be the most immediately impeachable shit imaginable
I am focused on kitchen table issues. For example, I propose we break this here kitchen table into pieces and use those pieces as clubs.
Hulk Hogan, without realizing, then he freaks out and yells SOFA KINGS.
ive got no idea what's going on with Trump's health. But the 'biden precedent' is just so glaring and hilarious. half of 2025 has been taken up with elite press shaming of how no one ever talked abt Biden's age which was actually their main topic in 2024. Ok. Set aside that his party literally ...
The asshole is invading Boston.
EXCLUSIVE: Court docs appear to show that married Trump DoD appointee Anthony Tata had a 'casual sexual relationship as well as a professional relationship' with astrology influencer Amy Tripp, aka Starheal, investing in her company, Starheal LLC, for 5 percent equity. www.thecut.com/article/astr...
Boston is the safest city in the United States. All this is gonna do is makes Bostonians less safe and less free. www.politico.com/news/2025/08...
Chicago Fans are famously the only demographic who buy Nike Jordans.
Similarly, seeing the relative lack of accidents in the center of town after they installed traffic lights made me lose faith in traffic laws. Mad Max is the direct result of that overreach.
Very good, serious piece…
Great read.
It is insane that our government is acting in brazen bad faith TO HARM CHILDREN and protect no one.
Reports that Venezuela is facing a large-scale cyberattack, triggering widespread power outages across Greater Caracas and several other provinces.
Hit the capital, and boom, Bob’s your uncle. Then, just start deporting people from here to there. Don’t bother with nation building, governing. It’ll be easy, and will convince people you’re not dead, and drive all that pesky Epstein stuff out of the news cycles.
If you look at a map of Venezuela, most of the population lives within a few miles of the coast. It would be very easy to convince a very dumb POTUS that an invasion would be a cake walk because you don’t need to hold much territory (like in Iraq!).
Trump just being busy directing a poorly planned invasion of Venezuela so he can turn it into a deportation colony makes as much sense to me as the whole death meme. I hate that it makes sense.
This is the ballgame:
Maybe all the fun we had last night, plus the obvious evidence of his decline, will lead some media to actually consider it a story.
Donald Trump wishes the hard workers of America a happy Labor Day.
Speaking as a parent, if you found a way to get your kid to eat multiple different foods, I salute you.
I think the absence of #TheReadyRoom is having a negative impact on #StrangeNewWorlds this season.
Tiny Chefffffffffffffff!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Dragonssssssssss!!!!!!!!!!!!
PIZZAAAAAAAAAA!!!!!!
It's also a pretty efficient way to crash a large economy. Imports are hamstrung by tariffs, and mass deportations mean domestic production won't be able to compensate. This will affect the price of most basic and necessary consumer goods, driving inflation up all the way to the Moon
@maindivisible.bsky.social One would *think* waiving the stringent APIC rubber stamp for vaccines *should* be a no brainer for @massgovernor.bsky.social. As it stands, even those still eligible for the COVID vaccine currently can't get it. Let alone RFK Jr pushing junk science, not real science.
This story has it all: aquaculture, Black Flag, Bernie Sanders, Star Trek as policy, John Hodgman, male tears, and a candidate citing Luthen’s monologue from Andor. Meet Graham Platner, the Maine oysterman trying to crack the senate. @grahamformaine.bsky.social newrepublic.com/article/1996...
I realize folks are reading that as “Republican National Convention”, but I think he might mean a Constitutional Convention with the idea being to remove his term limits.
As a benchmark, if you can’t differentiate yourself from AI bots on social media, then you need to up yer game as a human.
One more time, shout out to the very serious people who suggested that RFK had some really good points about public health. No way to have predicted how things would turn out, except to look at his past record and everything he said about vaccines.
The #GOP isn’t pro-gun. The GOP is pro-massacre.
Fuck Larry David.
Note: Cassidy also claimed that he received assurances that vaccine safety would not be dismantled. His senate committee still holds responsibility for oversight. He shouldn't have a moment's peace -- journalists and voters should be demanding answers. www.politico.com/news/2025/02...
This is meant to sow fear that they will hunt you down for self-reporting ANYTHING on this list. Time to fight.
I love this for her.
Folks! I think the President might not be above board. To whom may I address a sternly worded letter on this matter?
wtf is this nonsense? He thinks he can understand kid’s “mitochondrial challenges” just by looking at them? This is an insane person.
Abbe Lowell and I represent CDC Director #SusanMonarez. Contrary to govt statements, Dr. Monarez has neither resigned nor yet been fired. She will not resign. We have issued the following statement:
In a functional government, this would be a five alarm fire where Congress calls in Kennedy and asks him what the fuck is going on
In light of the fact that we’re backsliding as a society in the sciences, with MAHA, RFK jr., and other cranks at the wheel… we need to reflect on what type of public science communication hasn’t been happening? Does it exist? How do we avoid preaching to the choir and breaking through?

Counter point: What if we just start raiding the red states to protect them from Tiger Kings and shit?
Again, though, the rednecks they send up here will get run off the road in New Jersey. The ocean here is too cold for (them in) an amphibious landing. An attack by air just drops them in the Commons, where they’re kettled.
Like, Rome had entire years named after the number of shitty emperors who reigned in that year, and they still didn’t collapse. This happened to Rome MULTIPLE times.
It would be the funniest thing ever if the most powerful empire in history collapsed because of one asshole.
“Trump Claims Illegal Powers to Distract from Epstein Coverup and Tanking Economy”
They gotta pull Elon off the #SpaceX broadcast. The man is an idiot, and a fascist.
I am sounding the alarm on the real crisis we face today. Donald Trump’s overreach is what our founders warned against – it is unprecedented, unwarranted, and un-American. There’s no emergency here that calls for military intervention.
Pritzker: To the members of the press who are assembled here today and listening across the country, I am asking for your courage to tell it like it is. This is not a time to pretend here that there are two sides to this story.
Walz: "It boggles my damn mind that in the midst of a military takeover of our cities, the flaunting of the rule of law, that the press finds the need to talk about, 'Oh, there's a division in the Dem Party.' There's a division in my damn house & we're still married and things are good. That's life"
Folks, before all the AI slop, the internet was full of people who would tell you that butter can’t go bad if you store it in olive oil and keep it in a drawer.
I do admit that I regularly forget whether it is stochastic terrorism or just regular terrorism.
are more people left handed in the mirror universe
These scared punks aren’t even gonna be able to drive their vehicles into Boston. They’ll get confused in Canton when the signs tell them they are going north and south simultaneously, and then they’ll get shunted south onto 3 in Braintree and end up drinking with retired fire fighters in Kingston.
Why is that difficult? Reporters should be reporting the lack of evidence for the action taken, with said lack of evidence rendering the action as illegitimate.
Good!

I am begging the Democrats to put one (1) person into leadership who knows how to talk like a normal person and not a string of focus-grouped buzzwords
All the better if it is snowing and the plows and salt haven’t scraped that last half inch of hard packed snow that hides all the lanes.
NASCAR might not be huge in Boston, but every Bostonian is an elite short track driver the moment they see a rotary and drop the hammer.
I love this btw. It’s an awesome way to get around while letting you appreciate one of the best ports in the country.
This was funny. I’m gonna keep posting through it.
The only reason the House is basically 50/50 is because some blue states unilaterally disarmed on gerrymandering, believing their high road would lead by example. That effort failed and it is OK to go nuts with the maps. We need national reforms, not kowtowing for vibes.

NASCAR could improve the current Cup series car on road courses by allowing each driver to select a single use mod that deploys a weapon. Examples include: 1: A 5x10 ft tarp 2: Spikes 3: 2 second smoke screen 4: 12 lbs of dime sized gravel 5: All 12 months of the 1991 Snap-On calendar, loose leaf.
I think it’ll go great that we’re sending a bunch of rural National Guard troops to a city for the first time in their lives. I’m sure that scared, armed kids who will piss themselves on a mile long DC Metro escalator will do an amazing job.

Tom Brady The Announcer is a nepo baby who would be selling insurance in corporate cafeterias today if Tom Brady The Player hadn’t insisted he be given a job.
Name and shame.
Literally meant to delegate shit within the exec, like “oh snap, I’m head of state of American Samoa too? Well, shit, let the Secretary of the Interior manage that!”.
The internet exists so the world can know, with absolute certainty, that Tom Hiddleston opted out of being paid to play Loki purely for the love of the game.

Yeah, he’s an asshat. But he’s OUR ASSHAT!!! GOP just has an asset. And he ain’t even their asset.
All they give a crap about is the perks of their job and nothing else
just can not shake the feeling that democratic leadership really believes they are just a couple votes away from the halcyon times of enjoying senate softball and seersucker suit day
WTF
Did Neville Chamberlain get the Nobel Peace Prize?
Democrats writing letters
First thought that went through my mind is that Big Balls paid a bunch of randos to do this.
Masked agents of the state are removing random people off the streets into unmarked cars while saying “liberals ruined the country.” I never want to hear anyone who supports MAGA claim to believe in freedom ever again.
They were able to get extra work done during the conversation by providing both men with chairs that double as toilets. In this clip, you can see that they are both evacuating their bowels whilst simultaneously freeing their upper torsos of hot air.

Genuinely grateful to live in one of the few remaining states to retain (for now) level-headed leadership.
"[W]hile the modern Republican Party became more ruthless about defeating its political enemies, breaking whatever norms were required, Democrats effectively stood in place, hoping for a return to bipartisan comity and defending the status quo" this was good ⤵️ www.nytimes.com/2025/08/15/m...
