*DOG: “You're finally back! I missed you so much!!”
lol!
I absolutely LOVE this one.
Ruin a movie by making it about Gary Gary is the Warmest Color
Ruin a movie by making it about Gary Close Encounters of the Gary Kind.
Obligatory repost
New Hampshire police report regarding the accident in which Rudy was injured. As much as I would love for it to be something salacious and utterly stupid, it seems like it was just a matter of garden-variety bad luck: www.nhsp.dos.nh.gov/news-and-med...

Rabbit rabbit!
when he does finally go i will demand not just the death certificate but the long form death certificate
The film and stills of the most recent Oval Office appearance with the “Trump was right about everything” hat was very unusual. No tie, open collar. Sat behind the desk. It’s not a stretch to speculate ill health.
They are never going to be a hundred percent honest about the health of the President of the United States, no matter who it is. If they admit to more than a cold or the flu, they're running something up the pole to buy time.
LOL and fingers crossed.
Rudy Giuliani has been released from hospital after doctors realized he just looks like that
Throw $2 at tomorrow night's Powerball and you just might get your wish… :-)
I heard speculation that ABC settled with Trump before the inauguration to prevent a challenge to NYT v. Sullivan that SCOTUS would take up. If this shitbird little weasel is granted cert on such an obviously bogus case it'll remove all doubt that the Roberts Court is a partisan activist SCOTUS.
To put it more simply: Historically, authoritarian takeovers often coincide with a rejection of scientific and factual reality. This isn’t accidental. It’s a strategic dismantling of shared reality, which destabilizes democratic institutions and makes populations easier to manipulate.
Central air & heat wouldn't hurt the asking price either.
I will live vicariously through your enjoyment of it. :-)
I totally understand and applaud your thinking on this–it's the mature way to go. That said, I was writing quite the opposite take literally at the same time you were typing yours. I will celebrate! tbf, it'll be the only way I can cope with the cult's inevitable hero worship.
Just so long as there's a grave on which I can piss for decades after it'll be worth it. Three cheers for the tits-up orange shitbird. 2/2
I will party as hard as a person with long-term sobriety can if the shitbird does go tits up. That said, every silver lining goes have a dark cloud: the revisionist history martyrdom the current up-sucking VP by Maybelline and the cult engage in after his tits-upping will be vomitous. 1/2
BREAKING: Social Security Administration chief data officer and whistle-blower Charles Borges has resigned after bombshell report that SSA put highly-sensitive data at risk. He sent out an email to colleagues moments ago. Here is the text of his email shared with me:
Sen. Joni "We're All Going to Die" Ernst saw her own poll numbers and the special election victory for Dems this week and opted to pull the ejection seat handle.
Soon-to-be erstwhile Ernst. Whatever good she may have done in her professional life will always be overshadowed by her confirmation votes for Secretaries Hegseth and RFK Jr. as well as folding on the BBB that kicked people off Medicare. I wonder what tariff-impacted Iowa farmers are going to say.
Here's a short article giving a very abridged history of the pigment in my favorite color: www.winsornewton.com/blogs/articl...
BREAKING: Big moment as CDC staff stage a mass walkout. They have lined the street outside its HQ to greet and salute the four top officials who have resigned in protest at RFK Jr’s attack on the agency’s science base. (🎥 AP)
It is not just that these employees are risking being put on leave or even fired for standing up for science (see EPA/FEMA officials), they are standing in front of a workplace that was the subject of a terrorist attack a couple of weeks ago, by a man who believes what their boss believes.

looking forward to the many press conferences during the next pandemic where we’ll be forced to listen to someone who sounds like pennies in a garbage disposal and looks like fried chicken skin telling us how to stay healthy
And by “ruin” you mean improve!
So how long will it take for all the losing and mismanagement on the part of the Dallas Cowboys before the franchise loses its place as the most valuable NFL franchise? This Parsons fiasco might be the inverse Herschel Walker trade.
seems bad
AAAAAAHHHHH
This is a hell of a letter. “The intentional eroding of trust in low-risk vaccines…will bring us to a pre-vaccine era where only the strong will survive and many if not all will suffer….Eugenics plays prominently in the rhetoric being generated…”
Still more designs from the recent swing-and-a-miss pitch. More of the really fun doggie characters. #drawing #sketching #sketch #sketchbook #traditionalart #pencil #pencildrawing #coloredpencil #coloredpencildrawing #analogart #graphitedrawing
I heard the Sol Rosenberg character from The Jerky Boys saying “Sue everyone!” when I read that. I think this all is starting to get to me.
Hoo boy
These seem like small victories in the grand scheme but I’m happy to count whatever wins we get.
I hope Judge Box o’ Wine is close to a TV camera when she hears this—I for one am eager to see her impersonate a dervish as she froths at the mouth and pops an o ring.
This really begs a question for the Stephen Miller types. Say you deport all the foreign-born laborers and nursing students, etc, in the name of employment opportunities for citizens. Do these vacancies magically fill immediately? Are there fat lazy white people rushing to fill the void? Seriously.
We have 30 departments at my #hospital looking for #nurses right now, and they are deporting nursing students
If we lived in a world that made any sense, everything would have changed after the Sandy Hook massacre. Yet here we are in Nihilismville.

Thank you, Chief Justice John Roberts. You flaming asshole.
Sorry but I have a hard time believing that the same people who laughed when Los Angeles was on fire care deeply about keeping residents of blue cities safe from crime

Good headline that conveys consequences of Trump’s action and uncertainty about his power.
Happiest Birthday Wishes, Yamila–hope your day in your new home is great! Best wishes to you & the family.
A US news organisation just straight up installing a political commissar in order to placate the regime
This isn't even remotely the craziest idea I've heard this week (and it's only Tuesday). It would totally track with the erratic impulsiveness of every other decision the toddler in chief has made lately.
Constituent: You talked about abuses in the medicare and medicaid system and I found interesting that the president pardoned someone that defrauded the medicaid system for $1.3 billion
The ubiquitous right wing talk about getting swooped up by gubmint "black helicopters" was always a form of aspirational projection masquerading as anti-government libertarianism.
/9 Here is Texas v. Johnson, 1989, specifically rejecting 36 years ago this verminous administration’s stupid, dishonest arguments: supreme.justia.com/cases/federa...
The state decided it wants to crush just one guy who *didn't do anything wrong*. They picked Kilmar Abrego Garcia because they thought he'd be an unsympathetic target for their abuses. They put in little effort and it turns out he wasn't, that made them look bad, and they're taking it out on him.
In Trump America, Kennedy assassinates YOU.
My "c'mon, they can't do THAT" thinking died with Dobbs. The Federalist Society & Heritage Foundation are singular evils hell-bent on installing White Christofascism here in the US (they've proven not to give a single shit for practicing Christians who are brown-skinned). It's incontrovertible.
Judge Xinis specifically ordered the government (including ICE) not to take Abrego Garcia into custody. This is a violation of that order. (She also required 72 hours' notice of any third-country removal, excluding weekends and holidays, but it may be that the intend to detain him until Wednesday.)
JUST IN: On X, DHS says that Kilmar Abrego Garcia “will be processed for removal to Uganda.”
And while the right wing story was constantly changing, the police report and the story from the teenagers both remained consistent. The teenagers say that big balls was harassing and trying to pick up the 15-year-old girl, and when he wouldn't leave her alone the boy jumped in to defend her.
Can folks do me a favor? I was on Bluesky early & it was great. Mostly. I hit the eject button in January. I came back, many colleagues are here, but still don’t know I am. I co-created Halt and Catch Fire. I write TV & comics. Here’s two favorite set photos. Repost? I am in the wilderness.
So this is the President of the United States reacting to being criticized by saying we should revive a defunct and well outside the statute of limitations criminal investigation against the person offering the criticism.
They gaslit you all throughout the election.
This flies in the face of voter behavior going back decades where they vote against their material, personal self-interest when turned off by cultural hot-button issues.
Ugh. Sorry to read that second part—must have been infuriating. Glad it got sorted so well and came out great. Keep being excellent!
That’s super cool ink. How many hours are in it?

Know how to do your job, so the next person can do their job. (I would add: writers, understand how much dialogue fits in a particular panel, and trim your script accordingly; don't just dump it on the letterer to somehow magically make everything fit.)
Let them know you're filming them and keep asking the key questions: "Do you have a warrant signed by a judge? Show me." "Do you have a badge? Show me." "Do you know how pathetic you are? You showed me."

If step two is “Dyson Sphere” then step one was a mistake that must be undone immediately and there is no step three
Some more designs from the newest unsuccessful pitch. The doggies were going to be really fun characters in this one. C'est la vie…
Gonna start posting some stuff from a reject over the next couple of days, starting with this.

Russia will have to “get something?” How about it gets the hell out of Ukraine?
I started carrying on about it the day after the election–the timing is almost poetic.
I for one am grateful for the restraint of writing "condor" instead of "Burmese python." A small comfort to be sure but it's always a game of inches.
What we'd really need is The Guardians to win the WS and undo the cosmic inversion that rain delay caused. However it gets undone is good by me, however as I agree with you that the Cubs winning the '16 WS inverted their curse and unleashed it on the wider world.
I remember @eringloriaryan.bsky.social sounding the alarm on this right from the start. iirc, she said she'd die on the hill of "the internet of things is bad."
Right. The horrifying information is right out there, in public, in reports, and in Trump's behavior.
This
an age test and a perfect joke in one place (via onelegblackheart on threads)
