People used to go rabid for the chance to assume a 9.6 percent mortgage.
they weren't as big as mattresses, Dom.
so what do we imagine they were throwing out of the White House windows, and to what purpose?
Unironically they should buy up the domains for about 60 defunct local newspapers in swing states. Hire two reporters to write almost exclusively about highschool sports and new restaurants opening with every 10th article about how the local GOP is screwing over people.
Money.
congrats!
and he was out there talking about sharks with fricking laser beams and she was smiling and doing Joy and we were all dancing and FUCK YEAH
wife: oh hey u guys are back early me: bread’s woke wife: what? me: *loading a butter knife and getting back in the car* bread’s woke
I was absolutely convinced she was going to win by Reagan in 1984 numbers. fucking knew it in my bones.
Not funny, but i bet @marisakabas.bsky.social gets it.
was it We Didn't Start the Fire

lucky
well I think the Norwegians should not eat that baby!
Briliant from @robynelyse.bsky.social at @wonkettemedia.bsky.social . Make it go viral www.wonkette.com/p/i-am-going...
I thought she meant it was poorly lighted.
me if it happens on labor day
if we lie enough times that he's dead the new york times has to do a 3 month long barrage of stories over whether or not he's dead
what happened? was he dying?
is Robert Reich 90 years old and dead? No? Then I wasn't talking about him.
I realize this isn't the point, but someone should tell Susan Monarez she has pretty hair. www.wonkette.com/p/at-this-po...
Harkin's too young. he's only 85.
Handsome Paul Newman ass dead guy
I'm sure Chuck Schumer can find a dead 90-year-old to dig up and run.
"protesting"
thank you!
My mama's from Hawaii, and I have been many many times, but not for a long time. We're going next May, I have tickets.

It's your Thursday morning news roundup! YIPPEE He's All Gon' Die! Tabs, Thurs., Aug. 28. 2026 www.wonkette.com/p/yippee-hes... By Rebecca Schoenkopf @wonkette.bsky.social
I hate that Charlie Kirk is making me side with Taylor Swift. That said, my favorite roast was this one:
wow
oh DANG. at the end of the series we all started SCREAMING.
I don't know that one!! who was he??
what is a double trifecta?
two important things as you file all your newsletters and blogposts: He said, "I did it. I threw a sandwich," not "I did it. I threw THE sandwich." And dude's wearing a pink guayabera, not a pink polo. You can see the eyelets! Accuracy matters.
Evan you are being TOO MEAN to POOR CHARLIE KIRK. I like this one best: www.wonkette.com/p/charlie-ki...
She was wrong. And voters have agency. They made a very very bad choice.
it turns out you have to click through to youtube to get the translation at the bottom, totally worth it!
She's not being punished, but people tried, because she was (very!) wrong about Gaza. The people who are literally starving to death while we throw away their aid are the ones being punished. That's my point.
I think she made the wrong decision. And so did every single person who thought it would be cool to punish her for that. The whole entire world is being punished instead.
They want to put the unlicensed therapist that tells your kids not to trust you and it’s ok if they die into all your kids’ rooms.
cool
when @brooklynmarie.bsky.social posted this I didn't even realize there were lyrics at the bottom, I was only getting the "fuck your mother" line and it was STILL my new favorite. www.youtube.com/watch?v=RtcP...
lol, economists.
"what, you didn't know?"
JEALOUSY USELESS PROFESSOR
he's so good, CD. I was like "hey what are you doing? okay go buy the best frilliest backpack." He put all kinds of treats in it, but the stuffy was the specialest :)
Anyway, sometimes Mondays are good.
An hour later GG was ready to go, we brought Little Girl back to her. Did she want to stay the rest of the afternoon and GG would pick her up at the end of the day? Her eyes were glowing, OH, she DID. She had been so scared and sad and she had a GREAT afternoon with her new kindergarten class.
I told our principal what was up while Great Grandma wept in the teacher's lounge. Principal told GG she'd take care of it, Little Girl would come to our school. My husband went and bought the cutest backpack for her and dropped it off, with a little hidden stuffy in the pocket.
I took Little Girl to the kindergarten room to hang out while principal talked to GG. Little Girl was scared and nervous. Our school is public but it's an application school. That means if you live in the boundary, you're in, but otherwise you have to test in. They didn't live in the area.
Today was the first day of school. About mid-day, a new kindergartner showed up with her great grandma. Great Grandma and Grandma had been raising her together, and (GG's daughter!) Grandma just died. Little girl covered her ears with her hands when GG said Grandma had just died.
My day has been mercilessly and merciFULLY busy today, so my ability to sit at my desk and Wonkettate has been limited. I see that the lead story is about Mamdani now, though, so I'm uh-gonna go check THAT shit right now because Mamdani fucking RULES. Like @wonkettemedia.bsky.social! 😉
I'm at my Monday job at the girls' school today. Looks like y'all been having some News.
eh my husband's been blazed every day for 30 years, and he's been able to grasp the concept.
well my goodness that's a lot! www.wonkette.com/p/are-you-th...
"No matter how all of this ends, we'll all need a few cosmos at our local gay bar after the dust settles" 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣 (And thanks to @wonkette.bsky.social for this gem): www.chron.com/culture/arti...
I can't believe he basically got people to Pokemon Go To The Polls.
I still like that movie though where Felicity goes to the Austen theme park and she's like incredibly bad at it and doesn't even speaka it right? Like almost as badly as the Legally Blonde lady from Best in Show.
I'm 86, Jewish, downtown Democrat and massive donor and all in for Zohran.
I was talking to my aunt yesterday. She's (I think?) 89, a Democratic Party superdelegate, Jewish, Upper West Side. She thinks @zohrankmamdani.bsky.social is *magnificent*.
I bought that painting at a Mexican restaurant in Long Beach probably 26 years ago, in my mid-20s. I paid THREE HUNDRED SEVENTY FIVE DOLLArS for it, which is all the money in the WORLD.
we love you @cpsc.gov www.wonkette.com/p/will-trump...
lol my little brother just walked into my living room and said, "I don't *hate* it." ass.
I don't believe it is for napping, no, but I can curl up to one side and work. Because that is what I do :/
it does not seem like a sleeping couch, no.
I am a woman of many talents
:)
I got a new couch.
Me five minutes ago: I'm not going to read the Prince Andrew biography, so I'll just read this article about it Me after reading these two paragraphs: LMAO GOOD GOD
that thread is Lina Khan erasure and it pisses me off.
For some reason I'm thinking of the two huge dudes who showed up to my local parish a couple years back. We'd just opened an overnight shelter there and there had been protests elsewhere, people standing outside yelling shit so migrants couldn't sleep, etc. So here come these giant guys.
It's so good lmao
thank you for my new favorite song
"Smith and some other citizens also chose to respond by putting the rainbow back in the crosswalk, so that people can be reminded that there are still non-shitty people out there." GOOD! www.wonkette.com/p/desantis-h...
denmark rocks bc theyll notice that only 80% of their population is currently laying in the grass in a park with a six pack of 8% beer reading a book while on a 3 hour lunch break from work making $50/hr selling croissants at a cafe called GOBBO or FLUUZ and their government will spring into action
Take some time to read this beautiful story by my colleague @tonyhotran.bsky.social slate.com/life/2025/08...
(Also that's why you always capitalize it, you are welcome for the assist!)
isn't this the guy Popehat was beefing with?
morning news and whatnot!
holy shit

I'm so sorry you guys.
boy, i don't know.
sure that should do it
also with the Supreme Court
On the one hand, SCOTUS loves bribery. But on the other hand, they might want to punish the journalist.

the story's just a delight, it just goes and goes
her apparently limitless corruptions took up a lot of real estate in that story. I mean!
LOL
Do you want RFK Jr to come or not?
ok this lady is right. They're showing their produce, not their charcuterie table. To be fair to me, *it's still gross and I hate it*.
I don't care if you have to gnaw on that cauliflower like a Henry VIII turkey leg, THAT CHICKEN (and possibly a ... what, London broil?) IS ON ALL THE FINGER FOOD.
