By far my favorite part of January 6.
My kids took the bus, but some days I needed to pick them up. I quickly realized that if I arrived 10 minutes after dismissal I would sail through the line. When I passed this tip to another mom, she said “but then they’ll be one of the last kids picked up.” We did not become mom friends.
Platner: No one cares that you pretend to be remorseful as you sell out to lobbyists. Symbolic opposition does not reopen hospitals. Weak condemnations do not bring back Roe V Wade. Maine deserves better than Susan Collins.
They shit on desks in our Capitol. They're not patriots they're spoiled fucking children
“If you want the best food from a foreign country; just go to the strip malls outside American cities, because that’s where the immigrants can afford rent” theory keeps winning
Carrollton Texas is where to find great Korean around here
They hate direct eye contact
Like 50% of dogs already have highly specific special interests. Trains, fetch, my parents have a male dog that made himself a fleshlight, etc.
On this day in 1967, Louis Armstrong released his iconic single "What a Wonderful World." It was initially a flop in the US but became a global anthem of hope after being featured in the film Good Morning, Vietnam.
He's a damned treasure. Bloody brilliant
I forgot about Red Green!
He was great in Northern Exposure
As if the homophobia weren’t bad enough, Chick-Fil-A selling waffle cut fries with no seasoning whatsoever is an affront to god and man why do people wait in interminably long lines for this shit? what is wrong with you people
Every new picture I see of trump reminds me of this
Bluesky should host that shit then. Why not?
Like Ivana
...did people forget that Joe Lieberman got the public option pulled out?
So I guess they're all betas since they avoid eye contact
Autistic Dogs would be a good name for a rock band
love it
Schrödinger's stack of old pancakes president
Weird Al-ing Losing My Religion into Losing My Erection writes itself js
Everybody Hurts
It is seriously ridiculous a lot but I'm just a bog-standard wine mom liberal
[CUE MUSIC: “IN THE ARMS OF AN ANGEL” PLAYING SOFTLY] [FADE IN BACKGROUND SOUND: A solemn voice reads names] Nate Silver. Matthew Yglesias. Megan McArdle. Mark Cuban. [FADE IN: SALLY STRUTHERS sits on a stool in a pool of light on a minimalist set. She looks SAD.] /1
“Genuine anger was one of the world’s greatest creative forces” In times like these, we can all be a bit more Granny. #terrypratchett
Be especially sure to be as mean and personal as possible please
If you think I'm being a crass insensitive smartass about this now, wait until you see how I am if he actually does die.
Thinking about making spicy braided bread. Calling it “Challapeño”.
I think you've been replaced with an exact replica
Do you have a big, floppy dog too? The symmetry would be nice 🙃
We are a country of whiny little babies
as with most failed attempts to fake a dialect, the tell is that they have simulated the vocabulary but not the grammar
Donald Trump will be the first President to die in office since John F. Kennedy. Why that's bad news for Joe Biden.
The FBI was one of the only attractive law enforcement careers because they had standards, the police need to be actually professionalized.
I mean, you are not a liberal 🤷♀️ But you sure as shit aren't a fascist
One thing that's particularly maddening about what's happening today—beyond that it's happening—is that when people talk about how we are moving toward authoritarianism, toward fascism, by a collection of narcissistic sociopaths, many Americans' eyes glaze over.
Is Smash Burger seasoning tastier than Lawry's?
I don't know where they think the profits will come from when the unwashed masses have no money or any opportunity to make some
Remember, kids: A real big goal of "AI" is to entirely sever capital from labor, and no, there will be no universal basic income, you can all just starve and die, thanks www.axios.com/2025/08/26/a...
I want a beautiful house but I hate handyman stuff and cleaning and yard work. Life is unfair! It must be Kamala Harris's fault
Pay or learn. Those are the choices
The goal is supposed to be rewarding once you get there. The process usually isn't. Is this confusing somehow? It's like the DoorDash discourse. You will not have amazing food unless you learn how to cook it and do so, or unless you pay someone else to do it for you. Instant gratification costs
Someone please kill me right now.
as funny as it is to imagine a scenario where Trump just randomly keels over and dies because he is an unhealthy senile 80 year old, it's important to keep in mind that the scenario where he has a stroke or heart attack and is merely severely incapicitated but remains alive is MUCH FUNNIER
Why is the 5yo addressing me as “bruh”
Urban walls, sidewalks, and even utility meters are the unlikely canvases behind this clever collection of genius street art. From an illusion of a zebra being striped to a sidewalk creature with a real rock for a head, these eight works turn... 👇
So only people who can afford regular doctor visits can get it?
$50 says that’s Stephen Miller wearing his skin
The guy who tariffed lumber, who is trying to deport the construction workforce, and who campaigned on his opposition to Affirmatively Furthering Fair Housing does not actually care about bringing down housing prices.
Me: "Look at all those other people out there. They're not afraid of the water." My 3 year old: "But I am." Destroyed by facts and logic.
I cannot believe that guests on MSNBC actually used the phrase “child prostitute” which is a phrase that SHOULD NEVER BE USED. It suggests that children have agency and are making an adult decision and they are NOT and CANNOT, they are purely the victims of adults! Disgusting
Not the goddamed "justice"system You get the justice you can afford in this country
If we don’t stand up for these victims, who will ?
Toast the English muffins first js
I just gave my almost 13yo son a 5 minute speech on how the rise of Hot Pockets over Stouffer’s French Bread Pizza is an indication of the decline of western society and, I think I may have a problem.
Oh, Mr. La-Di-Da got the French bread pizzas I had to put tomato sauce and cheese on English muffins and be thankful And you may indeed have a problem
Big accounts should block those people quicker imo
It's good in an omlette too
It's good in an omlette too
Why did Gen Z males all hate Kamala with the fury of a thousand suns while believing that Trump was gonna personally make each of them rich I dunno what could possibly explain this it must be her neoliberal policies
Snowden is exactly the person all the shitlibs claimed he was and like every time the shitlibs turn out to be right about one of these guys all the cool kids have just memory holes their years of support for him and pretend they never defended the guy.
Pritzker on Trump sending troops into cities: "He has other aims other than fighting crime... he would like to stop the elections in 2026 or frankly take control of those elections. He'll just claim there's some problem with an election and then he's got troops on the ground that can take control."
There are a lot of pedantic assholes. I don't see any lot of discussion just people spouting at others and then high-fives with their followers
logic is hard
Got this question over email…anyone know why these perfect circles appear on air quality maps? Must be an artifact of some kind, right?
I just masked
omg!
Extremely offended by a spider spinning its web across an abandoned project that I've been planning to work on any day now actually
My two cents is that there is just something that can't be replicated. When everything comes together and just WORKS, it just clicks. And it seems like only humans can do it for ourselves
I just figured out how to deal with a situation that I was thrown into in 1978.
IMO its worse than taht Republican cannot afford to *not* gain in rurals, both margin and raw votes, if they continue to slip in suburbs and regress in urban areas
If there's anyone who could take my cats, or even just one, in western MD please let me know. I don't want to have to leave them at a shelter, they'd be so scared and sad.
Seeing positive covid tests allllll over my social media. Mask up folks
I'm completely vaxxed and think I just had it and jesus THE SWEATING
Bitch get out there and LOVE THY NEIGHBOR
Have I told you about the first time I let my daughter walk alone to piano practice? She had to cross a (big-ish) street, so I told her I would walk behind her and observe. At the zebra walk my daughter, like a boss, puts out her palm to signal the oncoming driver to stop. And Björk stops her car.
Crazy idea: what if we make electricity cost more for non-residential use.
Logic is hard for some people
Don't listen to the enema enthusiasts. Trust me on this
🤞
if you're Reformed you skip the names, put your finger on the page, and pick the first four words which prohibit you from doing something
🤞
WHAT HAVE YOU DONE?? Video pls (not really I wouldn't either we are not to be trusted)
It was the drugs wasn't it
I'm more a "There, there" kind of gal when I pat someone on the head
Probably. Live-and-let-live people do seem hesitant to impose their worldview on others and seek to understand before judging. Everything in life is a matter of degrees
We need to handmaid's tale some motherfuckers js
You guys see where this is going? Right?
I got to say that whole palms-up eyes-rolled charismatic thing gets the fuck on my nerves. I mean, God knows what's in you heart stop overacting
I still haven't found any Korean bbq tacos so our work is not done
If you are talking about when insurrectionists shit on desks in the Capitol and got slapped on the wrist as punishment and the drug-addled game show host who encouraged them got reelected, then no, I don't know what you mean
Companies who say they are like a family have never witnessed a domestic dispute
Where's the fucking whimsy?
Fucking Mutton would be a good name for a rock band
