Hey good thing you sat out the 2024 election over Gaza huh? Things are so much better for everybody now.

No mention of threatening to invade Canada for the 50th time?

I’m a progressive man, but you fools make it so hard to vote Democrat. Where the fuck are your spines? Did they just fall out through your ass?

Do ANYTHING to combat this senile, wannabe despot, for fuck’s sake.

Girl Scouts selling cookies on a street in New York

This Girl Scout troop set up shop close by to me, two doors down from the lone dispensary. These girls have fantastic business acumen.

A gate blocking the immediate walkway in Carl Schurz park that circles the outside of Gracie Mansion

The area right outside of Gracie Mansion on the walkway is rarely closed off, especially on what is essentially a spring evening.

Goes to show how much those schmucks with the IEDs have rattled this neighborhood.

Opinion | Trump Has No Idea How to End the War With Iran

THIS, times 1000 👇

“Keeping Israel at war with Iran, Hamas and Hezbollah enables Netanyahu to drag out his corruption trial and avoid a commission of inquiry for his failure to prevent Hamas’s Oct. 7, 2023, invasion. (If you think that is too cynical, you don’t know Netanyahu.)”

Insurrectionist Brunch: Trumpists plotted to deploy military on U.S. soil Before the 2024 election, a cadre of MAGA loyalists met over brunch to plot ways for Trump to use the military domestically.

This is just astonishingly great reporting.

All of the crises the White House has claimed over the last 14 months were planned in advance. All of them.

And however much contempt you have for media outlets who reverently relayed Trump's claim to have no relation to Project 2025, it isn't enough.

Thought I would have gotten used to it by now, but I’m still grappling with the realization of just how stupid the men running this country are.

Anybody else miss when voice actors weren’t just celebrities and were masters of their craft?

Nobody wants to hear Benny Safdie voice Bowser Jr.

Sun shining between an avenue in upper Manhattan in a very dramatic fashion

It’s a gorgeous day in the city

He can’t find a big and tall store that both has clothes that fit him but also doesn’t look like he walked out of a Lincoln, Nebraska mall circa 1998

Haverfordwest. A river and a bridge houses opposite.

every single Democrat should be willing to run of this and if they aren't they should not be a Democrat bsky.app/profile/bill...

Currently checking into the Heartbreak Hotel, excuse me

Sorry, apparently my first one didn’t post, but: Thank you.

As I was covering a news item involving a bomb squad shutting down parts of East End Ave. this weekend, I was of course listening to some of the songs produced by the legendary producers, The Bomb Squad. Here are a few choice tracks (🧵):

How the Rapture Explains the Rupture Over Israel on the Right The waning of a religious concept among younger evangelicals is reshaping the right’s once unquestionable support for Israel.

Good headline, interesting (and maddening) article.

The fact that rightwing Israeli politicians fan the flames of apocalyptic Christian nutjobs infuriates me as an American Jew. Merchants of death egging on a death cult.

Two Toronto-Area Synagogues Are Struck by Gunfire

whatever the impact of the Iran War is on the safety of Jews is Israel, it is pretty clearly at least short-term bad news for the safety of diaspora Jewry

Too many conservative politicians and pundits have never been punched in the face, and it shows.

Simpsons meme of Moe throwing Barney out and Barney reappearing; however Moe is now Trump and Barney 1 is the deceased elder Khamenei, and Barney 2 is the new Supreme leader Khamenei

Current and former Block workers say AI can’t do their jobs after Jack Dorsey’s mass layoffs: ‘You can’t really AI that’ The CEO said he cut the company’s workforce by 4,000 people – almost in half – because of gains in AI productivity

Hopefully, there will be more articles written as follow-ups to when CEOs lie about laying off workers by claiming AI is replacing them. The news media needs to stop doing stenography and free PR work for tech CEOs.

They are murdering civilians on the high seas.

They are murdering civilians in 🇮🇷.

They are murdering civilians in concentration camps.

They are murdering civilians on the streets of 🇺🇸 cities.

These are not problems that can be fixed with new laws or more court orders.
