I keep resharing info about LaFlamme and the people mad about Platner‘s candidacy keep not sharing it and I don’t really get why you wouldn’t

I spent 4 months trying to answer a simple question: has this book been translated into my language?
Turns out no one tracks this. Not ISBN registries. Not Amazon. Not Google. Not libraries.
So I built a tool that crosses four databases to piece it together.

I'm happy for him. Although he's probably been up to shenanigans...

This is the warning on the blood pressure monitor my dad just got.

Exceptional work. Anybody know what the fuck it’s supposed to mean?

Last line is especially ominous

I woke to 25 new blocks after I posted a plea for people to vote, so let me be clear.
I don't give a fuck what ideology you claim...
If you are actively discouraging people from voting, telling them it won't matter, and that nothing will ever change...
You are an ally of fascism.
Full Fucking Stop.

Pauly Walnuts very seriously telling someone that “it’s called Broad daylight because women light up the world”

Hey, thanks for this context, I’ve heard plenty about Platner but didn’t know any of this about Mills.

This year is shaping up to be a blue wave and it’s really depressing to hear that we don’t seem to have a viable candidate who doesn’t suck in this race.

Here are some otters in hats to complete your day.

Comic by War and Peas. Panel 1: Two green aliens are at a press conference, sitting behind microphones. One alien happily says, "Jesus? We love that guy!" Panel 2: A human reporter with a microphone looks surprised and says, "We’ve been waiting centuries for his second coming." Panel 3: The first alien casually responds, "Really? He comes to us every year." The second alien adds, "We invited him for cookies. What did you do?" The reporter starts to sweat. Panel 4: Both aliens pause, looking inquisitive. One alien asks, "Wait. What did you do?" All reporters sweat.

Explain this, humankind

My secret life as a cat.

my notifications these days are basically a buffet of "here is 1000 word thread of detailed nuanced geopolitical analysis" and "check out this rock that looks like a cock"

I planned to share my report on the body cam footage early next week when I learned that a DC news station had obtained some of the footage as a result of my lawsuit and they were going to scoop me. After working on this for a year, I couldn't let that happen. Published 2 mins before they aired :)

At root this is the most depraved thing about right wing evangelical Christianity: asking god for forgiveness is about meaning it and proving through your actions that you mean it, not “God whispered to me that I’m all good so shut the fuck up about it already lol”

my first book (2020) was about online neonazis and my second book (2024) was about christian theocrats. they gained strength, voltronned and became a government. my third book (2027) is going to be a history of notable sandwiches so i hope this means we will be governed by sandwichocracy

wow -- Tillis goes ballistic on Noem, telling her "what we've seen is a disaster under your leadership"

One of the greatest, Bruce Campbell, announcing he has cancer. Our hearts are with you Bruce, Hail to the King.

god what a fucking nightmare

just learned this photo exists and why in the FUCK wasn't Gillian Anderson ever cast as Morticia? What's wrong with Hollywood?

My favorite part of The Odyssey is when Odysseus sits everyone down and says "Well boys, we're headed home, and it looks to be quite an odyssey."

Henceforth, I will be describing the way that U.S. men’s hockey spectacularly squandered good will, brand recognition, and fan loyalty as “pulled a Target.”

They pulled a Target.

Nick Shirley: “30 voters registered at a California UPS store!” 🤔

Paul Mitchell: um, people live above it. Look up, bro. 🙃

As usual this dude’s *reporting* is full of holes

The floor plan for the planned ICE concentration camp in Social Circle, Georgia:

Dayum. Just heard a minister say, as perhaps only Black ministers can, “We will fight until hell freezes over, and then we will fight on the ice.”
I’m stealing that!!

The call has been made! NYC Public Schools will have a full snow day tomorrow.

Special Saturday Triad: What I Saw at the Battle of Minneapolis The national media has moved on. Minnesota is still under siege.

“Citizens are neither stopping nor impeding the government’s work. They are merely documenting it. And for this affront, the government treats them as adversaries to be controlled, intimidated, arrested, beaten, and occasionally killed.”

We should send more politicians to jail

the right really hates it when you call their planned concentration camps "concentration camps." their whole program works only if you make migrants into a scary mass of undocumented criminals coming for white families. its a lot harder when you humanize it. keep it up.
