insidious
So many examples like this
it's scary to me that ppl bring infants to Claire's for ear piercings.
Just going to keep saying it, it is remarkable (you can still be shocked without being surprised!) that the rest of the Republican party has decided that blatant corruption and enrichment off the office of the presidency is legal for this one guy
many of us know this; many more do not. some know and do not care.
Here are the Lehigh Valley’s largest employers. Gonna be great for post-industrial economic development when all the hospitals, the school districts, local federal offices, & Lehigh & Lafayette have mass layoffs due to the dismantling of the entire federal government.
... what in the hell?! there was a real human walking around TJ Maxx approaching shoppers with a sales pitch to sign us up for the store credit card and I could not get away from that obnoxious stupidity fast enough .. but the banana bot is arguably worse
*never* have I experienced rain like that in RI, in terms of sheer water volume all at once
you had me at degenerate
lying assholes is my take
This should be headline news - the implications are horrifying …
mckee is not good for RI
Dear people who are saying that the CDC directors who quit yesterday should have “stayed and fought”, With all due respect, you do not grasp the magnitude of the problem of RFK Jr. He is asking them to do unethical and immoral things that will actively harm the people of the United States. 1/3
What recourse does Rhode Island have re: Revolution Wind? How should we handle a federal administration that "governs" by using bully tactics? AG Neronha sits down with @iandonnis.bsky.social to discuss these topics and more: www.youtube.com/watch?v=XpFr...
it's more his bent and warped soul that gets my attention
I lack the vocabulary to express how deranged this is
CHAOS ERUPTS AT CDC CDC Director Susan Monarez has been ousted after RFK Jr. demanded she change her policy on the COVID vaccine. Top officials from the Vaccine Unit, Zoonotic Division, and the Chief Medical Officer are resigning, per reports. Horrifying news for public health.
... this is an apt metaphor for my own pov with regard so many current scenarios in US politics and socio-economics also I'm sorry this actual real-world lighting predicament has happened to you.
“This is just another sad, desperate attempt by a small man, to distract the American people from ... the countless personal scandals he’s trying to sweep under the rug,” Duckworth said about Trump. RELEASE THE EPSTEIN FILES More here:
how is this both photo and a painting?
The mental health benefits of not knowing any history right now must be massive. Moving through your day with total equanimity. What happens next? Who knows? Maybe something good
and humbling
Pritzker: This is not about fighting crime. This is about the President and his complicit lackey, Stephen Miller, searching for ways to lay the groundwork to circumvent our democracy, militarize our cities, and end elections.
this stuff is such a disgrace. a free citizen of a free country should be ashamed to engage in it.
- Emporer Caligula
This was not true until John Roberts made it true.
... how is this an article? it's an advert posing as an article. absolutely everything is terrible and/or stupid.
Does anyone know what happened between May and August this year?
Trump has always believed this about himself as POTUS, but *only* about himself. He's wrong, of course, and also exceedingly unworthy of anyone's confidence or trust as a leader, as a businessman, or as just as a man. He's the apostate serpent of US democracy.

THIS IS THE PROBLEM. His one wish is for Trump to win an award. How about peace? And NOBEL PRIZE WINNERS DON'T BEG FOR THEM. This is madness. This oligarchy is the worst dumpster fire I've ever seen. Full of inhuman monsters.
it's bone deep revulsion. these people have no humility, no shame, no compunction - the very worst of us.
big shout out to the road crew working on Charles St in Providence using all the orange traffic cones stamped MASS DOT
Japan Post just announced they will no longer deliver mail to the United States, joining Germany, Austria, Denmark, Italy, France, and Sweden.
Again, if we had a functional congress this would be sufficient to remove him power.
every public health agency is now run by somebody called like Jeff Thalidomide
Something, something, something, Hunter Biden’s laptop
August in Brunswick, GA is crazy hot and humid. Doubtless Cain headed straight to the med tent after shooting this vid - for cooling packs & possibly a hydration IV
His status is unknown at this time but he's married to a US citizen and presumably also a citizen. I keep warning people that being legal or being a citizen (birthright or not) will not protect you from ICE if you don't look white.
Sometimes the sheer idiocy of this moment overwhelms me. The idea that our convicted felon POTUS who incited an attack on DC police then pardoned the attackers & who's the most corrupt official in US history is going on an "anti-crime" ride-along in a city w/falling crime rate is...(brain explodes)
I’m familiar with this diet
The president of the United States is trying to steal congressional seats so I don’t give a fuck about the Cracker Barrel logo discussion. Good night and have a pleasant tomorrow.
she tells them who they are: racist cowards and cheats, however they do not care about being accurately named. they will never care.
trying to ascribe over-arching sacredness to the Cracker Barrel corporate logo based upon a personal religious experience he had in the parking lot of one of their locations is some next level, ego-extended derangement. no reason for anyone to give a damn, not even from a christian theological pov
it's the gamification of policy. it's all a rube goldberg machine. something is only worthwhile if it makes the machine work and the only reason to do anything is the perpetuation if the machine. there's no room for, or consideration of, morality in there anywhere.
In today's least-shocking news that we all knew before, Fox staff and producers all along the election wasn't stolen in 2020 and lied for ratings. www.mediaite.com/media/tv/fac...
AAP's immunization recommendations are based only in the science, the needs of children, and the care that pediatricians have for the children in every community. If you have any questions about our recommended schedule, reach out to your pediatrician. aao.org
Friday: Trump says Putin claims voting by mail cannot be fair and it's how the 2020 was purportedly "rigged" against him Today: Trump announces executive order to ban mail voting and also voting machines Also today: Newsmax pays Dominion $67 million to avoid trial for lying about voting machines
Hey it’s a day ending in ‘Y’ so Tulsi Gabbard has launched yet another weird gambit to distract from the administration’s failure to release the Epstein files
of course they are
"The president who's committed every deadly sin, multiple times, wants to get into heaven -- and so do I," says the woman who constantly lies and spews insults on his behalf.
It couldn't hurt. Doing nothing wasn't yielding a lot of results. He's not going to change the mindset of extreme GOP anyway so no use caring about offending them. Let it fly. Political ambition means nothing if there is no white house to run for...
not me sneaking into my parked car at Legacy Place so i can sit here and eat my Whole Foods sushi in peace w/o one of the 50 cars circling for a spot deciding to wait behind me in the aisle and beep at me every 2 minutes.
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
A dictator came to the United States and praised Donald Trump for his attempts to overthrow the democratic order, and Trump bragged about it.
They might be making Trump mad, but Newsom has been throwing these at the press -- if you think these are beneath my office, why don't you say that when the president does the same thing? He's exposing that the media has a separate set of standards for Our Very Special Boy and that's good.
Loveless Cafe!
now they are laughing about the people they've talked to who do not know where RI is, nor that it's an entire US state...
it's so deeply messed up
listening to the live NESN broadcast of the Red Sox game ... who is Loomer Loaney?
a lot of this is frustratingly redacted, but it still proves that Tesla is doing exactly what DMV accused it of doing in their complaint, which is currently awaiting a ruling: telling the public vehicles are "self-driving" while telling regulators that nah, legally it's still just people driving
BLS Commissioner is a role that has never gone to an ideologue. It’s been for data nerds who care only about numbers. Put in someone with a record of distorting data, and every figure becomes tainted.
This is one of the most beautiful things I have witnessed, the craft here is impeccable.
Caligula's heir
"I'm getting wrapped on time." LOL.
Halligan is interested in self-promotion + self-enrichment. absolutely no one believes she has an interest in history.
I see off-brand Tom Brady
yes, parents definitely should make sure to apply sunscreen on their kids to protect them from fucking cancer, and also from regular cancer.
the nano particles many include, which make sunscreen easier to apply via aerosol spray + "invisible" on the skin, are maybe problematic e.g. nano titanium dioxide is not great to inhale, not great for the environment, per some research. Ppl want low effort tho, spray clouds of it on their kids
As multiple people have pointed out, drilling here will be incredibly expensive and dangerous and just plain inconvenient at every turn. I’m sure the work will be financially lucrative for those willing to endure but it would be really cool if people just refused to suffer for someone else’s profit.
100% accurate. ppl who claim any level of honor and/or decency cannot possibly justify their vote for him, yet vote for him they do.
They savaged Obama for asking for "fancy mustard" at a restaurant once, while Trump covered the Oval Office in tacky gold shit, bulldozed the Rose Garden so he can pretend he's at his shitty golf club, and vowed to tear down the East Wing to put up a $200,000,000 ballroom.
No Kings?
Dan Quayle's political career ended when he misspelled potato. Meanwhile, RFK is out here replacing germ theory with the four humors as federal doctrine. It's so stupid.
When a powerful figure tells a company that they need to pay him $1 billion to keep doing business, that is not a settlement, it is extortion
“It’s meant to disrespect women generally you see, not just athletes”
absolutely everything about him is vulgar: all ostentation, zero character
bc FEMA issued exemptions (per request of home owners, supported by prfssnl surveys from companies hired by those very owners, in the name of avoiding the cost of flood insurance) lawsuits are likely incoming and as usual taxpayers will help Roberson to rebuild his house in the same flood zone. ffs
personally I prefer something like "the keep" ... bc it's all medieval and dark academia.
@lfn.bsky.social thoughts on this name? idk about "kettle" - not sure students will adopt it. maybe let them suggest names and vote.
confident it will be one of these two, not sure which at this point. a lot hinges on the next Presidential election.
When you read about Trump backing Andrew Cuomo, remember this: sarahkendzior.substack.com/p/heat-exhau...
per article in their statement the guide co says the attack was “unprovoked” stalking a wild animal with the intent to end it’s existence via high caliber rifle = provocation, imho
“On the campaign trail, President Donald Trump promised to bring energy prices down…But electricity prices are still going up, and Trump’s signature legislative accomplishment [the Beautiful For Billionaires Bill] is likely to raise prices further.” Yup.
The highest levels of the Trump administration are collaborating with the FBI and DOJ to cover-up evidence the President committed sexual crimes against children. Unspeakably corrupt, and not a single Republican in Congress can be expected to speak out against it.
Every reputable expert I know considers mRNA vaccine technology to be one of the most revolutionary advances in medicine in our lifetimes. Its inventors won the Nobel Prize in 2023. Shutting it down now is pointless self-harm to humanity.
the Montana Knife maker has yet to cross over into understanding: Trump was NEVER going to deliver for this country. None of Trump's endless lies, his endless leadership + policy failures will break through the fog of such delusion; so much brain bending to accommodate Trump's non-stop corruption
Low-rise jeans have to be styled differently. There are many groups who have worn them stylishly in the past, so you have to find the original images to understand their cultural language. Those groups don't include people who wear classically cut sport coats.
Lol, we're warned constantly in RI that we can't tax the rich like this because all the millionaires fled Mass.
tbh I would rather see Acosta interview AI RFK - to get his "thoughts" on what Jr. has been up to lately...
Just please have one ounce of self awareness God damn it I feel like I'm taking crazy pills
On my way to UPS to return a desk top mini fridge bc mere days after I purchased it the price for the (*exact) same mini fridge dropped by $10 (on Amazon.com) but there is no way/means to message Amazon via my account to inquire about a $10 credit. So I'm shipping it back and then re-ordering it.🫠
