Time to do my weekly passing of the campaign hat. If you can donate something, regardless of how much, it’ll really help. If you’ve already donated something, you’re awesome! If you can’t donate, you can still sign up to get email updates for what the campaign will be doing. Have a great Labor Day!
A 1941 WPA road gang of migrant workers in New Mexico, many of whom were simultaneously working as farm laborers. Trump would have deported all of them.
or they’re trying to mend fences with the techbros.
"For the wicked boasts of the desires of his soul, and the one greedy for gain curses and renounces the Lord." -- Psalm 10:3
But it’s Adult and Serious not to care about who he kills.
Ask yourself why he spent all those words on his heroism when it was completely irrelevant to the accident he says he was in.
A night at the opera goes terribly wrong is a hell of an elevator pitch. And also arguably works for Moonstruck.
I wonder, hypothetically, how much he had to drink.
Going into the light is an individual thing.
I don’t suppose anyone spoke to Sybil Thorndyke about The Corn is Green (or Mary Martin about Sound of Music). I loved Ms Davis, but she was a bit selective in her indignation there.
Be a waste to have Sally Quinn as your mother in law and not learn something.

I did hear Chait was there now.
Never argue with a man whose job depends on not being convinced. — Upton Sinclair
Miss Manners says that etiquette is to save us from deciding who we should behave well towards. So it seems like half the electorate is out.
Dearest Martha, The National Guard stand solemn watch at the Krispy Kreme tonight. I cannot tell if they defend the people from the donuts, or the donuts from the people. Powdered sugar hangs in the air like cannon smoke. Jensen took a hot coffee to the face, he may never recover. Yours in glaze,
I have trouble believing that whosever bills this stuff pays lets her cross the street by herself.
They should really check with the AKC how that works out for the dogs.
He called his daughter a piece of ass on Howard Stern.
I don’t see as much patriarchy blaming as I used to.
Trying not to judge here, but maybe his being an outlier and his low expectations for a ‘normal’ relationship are related in some way?
he was running his dad’s political operation when he was a teenager, as those of us who saw his “vote for Cuomo, not the homo” flyers against Ed Koch will remember.
Frustrated about the difficulty in getting a COVID19 shot and wondering who to blame? It’s not healthcare workers, pharmacies, public health or Big Pharma. It is Robert Francis Kennedy Jr. and every Republican Senator who voted to confirm him, especially Bill Cassidy.
Howard the Duck (poor Leah Thompson).
And I am the world's foremost astrophysicist ballerina who invented the piano, aspirin, and appetizers.
Maybe ICE shouldn’t have lowered their standards for new recruits.
She supported him through law school and he took her kids so she wouldn’t bother him and the colleague he was banging. He did it by ‘proving’ she was an unfit mother. I assume RFK Jr heard that story, for reasons.
I need @moviessilently.bsky.social to know about this lovely portrait of Clara Bow, rendered in Minnesota seeds and crops for the Minnesota State Fair.
Andrew Scott is a contemporary artist renowned for his bold "frame-breaking" creations, where characters in his paintings seem to penetrate through glass. Through this unique creative approach, Scott explores themes of freedom, solitude, and resilience. Artist: @andrewscott_art #art #visualart

I would really prefer that MAGA doesn’t set my parameters.
He’s been sober half a century and he’s still working at almost a full century (because he wants to). I think if anyone would know about getting your head on straight it would be him.
Which brings us back to the thing where the people who dumped us in this were, disproportionately, associated with Harvard, whether by education or by being made fellows.
REPUBLICAN US SENATOR ERNST WON'T SEEK REELECTION IN 2026 - REPORTS
I feel like we may be at the portal to that golden age where Chris Cillizza learns how to be a supportive field hockey husband, because at this point the only people reading him are angry Democrats.
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"
I feel like there’s something about all her allies being antisemitic nightmare which is escaping this woman.
I would recommend a movie where Ava Gardner wasn’t a tragic chewtoy, but honestly I can’t think of one.
I’m a little concerned that it’s taking so long.
It’s nice that he sees the serious side now. 🚨
"Pat, why do you carry that ridiculous 600mm lens on long hikes?" Buddy, I can see mountains reflected in the eyes of a trailside pika.
Giorgia Meloni proposes a NATO-light guarantee for Ukraine. If Russia attacks again, allies must decide within 24 hours on military and economic aid, reports Bloomberg. Modeled on NATO’s Article 5, but without membership, belib.org/wmpFj1L
I love how someone called the new White House gold aesthetic as "Saddamcore".
Like the dead children?
14?
I thought bragging on the submersible ride he took and didn’t die could have waited a few hours after that other submersible imploded.
Back in the day we called it tone policing.
A fun reminder that "Big Balls" is: Grandson of former KGB agent Valery Martynov, who was based in Washington DC in the early 1980s, and later executed in the Soviet Union in 1987 after being exposed as a double agent Working for two people who have Russian collusion ties Frequently making…
Part of this is because a significant number of them are paid to lie regularly and it is important that calling someone a liar is worse than being one
Bessie Coleman (1892 – 1926) pioneering aviator. As US flying schools denied entry to her as a Black woman, she taught herself French and moved to France earning her license there. She specialised as a stunt pilot. #womensart
Happy birthday Scientific American! I am proud to have contributed, by coincidence, nearly 180 articles to the magazine. Here's the one I wrote honoring the anniversary. www.scientificamerican.com/article/scie...
In fairness, she never said anyone else would survive.
And who pays them?
Marauding highwaymen, except it's otters and they want shoes. I have been pounding the table about this danger for years, no one listened. And now look. Look what happens.
Are you familiar with the lady’s political career? Because I love the optimism, but she could have stopped this on a number of occasions in the past and chose not to. No sentient being believes this woman is the slightest bit concerned.
Keep in mind between now and November that back when he worked for his daddy Andrew Cuomo was a political protégé of Murdoch and his guy in Albany.
While reading our paper. Remember, the guy we backed lost WW2. We’re owed.
I believe you mean his seven-figure townhouse, yes?
Funnily enough, before he dumped his wife and kids to take up with his coworker he lived on Center Island, near Glen Cove.
In honor of #invertefest the black swallowtail my kids have been raising from a caterpillar decided to emerge today. It came into the house on a native flower bouquet from our garden that included golden alexanders. #NativePlants
Dear Senator Cassidy, You should resign so you have time for all the thoughts & prayers you’ll have to issue as countless people die needlessly of COVID because you’re a weak, pathetic traitor. You set this in motion. YOU. You betrayed your oaths as a doctor & Senator. #RFKJrIsAPsychopath
If he’s going to make his grandchildren frolic in sewage that seems wise.
A trans MAGA who was obsessed with the Great Replacement Theory killing Catholic kids (in church, wasn’t it?) seems improbable.
That would be the same ghoul whose rise to riches came from pimping W’s wars for Kay Graham’s insane children?
The fact that the richest man on earth is out there begging Republican women to live on his child support payments is kind of telling, I think
It means the guy who got community service for shooting up in an airplane toilet on his way to rehab (after failing the bar) wants to send the rest of us to do chain gang labor for taking prescribed anti-anxiety meds.
now that his kid works for Trump? Making him almost certainly the highest-ranking MAGA whose dad ever groveled to Hunter Biden for a college reference.
or maybe they turned him down after rich kid reform school.
Crossed my mind to wonder if the bully boys refused to go when they heard the Chicago cops were not on their side.
So, if Ukraine “negotiated” the end of the war with Putin the same way we “negotiated” with Japan, he’d be cool?
Yarvin is essentially a Thiel craft project.
Figure maybe 65% of the stuff they announce is inflammatory nonsense to distract the press, so I try to wait until I know it’s actually going to happen. I grew up in Manhattan. I have fifty years of experience ignoring Trump, including the thing where he was going to take over the WTC rebuilding.
I think he misspelled “on the other side”
So if you have a mood disorder you can’t take medication to help your mood disorder, but you can get a covid jab? I can’t help but wonder if this isn’t intended to keep the involuntary workers on the organic farms he wants to send people being medicated for mood disorders to healthy.
I was already thinking the Guard was going to be deployed on nonsense until they don’t have jobs to go back to.
Geez. Poor Eisenhower. He tried to warn us about the military industrial complex. Also, OG antifa.
per Ms Haberman (fondly) he’s just like that.
I’m not sure I would trust the food chain in DeSantis’ Florida enough to feed sushi to my child there.
Manhattan always looks shiny from across the harbor, I think.
The Iowa Senate seat that Democratic candidate Catelin Drey flipped tonight has been in GOP hands for 13 years. Not anymore.
So, strange?
At minimum, any song they have the music for is a song you get to sing at karaoke.
Leaving the obvious aside, there’s something seriously wrong with an establishment which allows anyone to get piefaced, let alone staff.
They paid from their own pockets to create the constitutional right to fire people for being gay. If whoever that creature is wants to boycott them for not whipping lard into the scrambled eggs I cordially invite them to have at it.
I’m still struggling with the decision to call a show about working class White confederate grievances The Faulkner Factor.
It’s creepy about this movement how aggressive the lifestyle subs are.
Boy, I bet O’Connor is pissed. In the NY Archdiocese they raise money ‘to help immigrants’ and endorse Trump.
Ours is the city seal in colors which haven’t been relevant since Pegleg Pete.
True. But bringing it up when she gets engaged to a football player who has roughly $60M himself is maybe an undeft choice.
The usual suspects announced a boycott when they added a vegetarian sausage option. I assume this one means that one cratered.
That last one confuses me. I should be better at not buying things, but I’m already pretty good at not buying things I don’t want.
Takes after his nazi bootlegger grandfather, doesn’t he.
The bottom two are definitely too rosy for a pink couch.
So it’s less that MAGA men can’t get dates and more that their dating pool is insane.
