Congress: “We’ve tried nothing and we’re fresh out of ideas.”

good morning

Personally, I hope the rocket hits the moon, knocks the moon off course into the Earth and ends this miserable fucking timeline.

No. Try Ronee Blakely's chapter @aheadbyecho. (But I didn't know she was married to him either!)

Wait a minute. Scarlett Rivera was married to Wim Wenders??!

Dang it, which Uncle Tupelo reissue has them doing Theme From The Waltons?

I’m not sure how it is for others with hearing differences, but I often cannot discern the direction a sound comes from. I’m standing directly in front of my boom box and the music is emanating from my toaster which is to my right. I am also incredibly stoned.

The Challenger disaster was a horrible tragedy, but I remember it was so shocking because catastrophe under NASA was so rare. This never-ending procession of privatised space rockets exploding every other week is making it mundane. Privatisation is shit.

Dolly may forgive him but that’s about it.

Sign me up for Socialism!

Bet you didn't know that the Little Morton Salt Girl is an immortal being who existed before there was life on Earth.

I’d ask when in the ever loving hell did I buy this, but copyright date says five years ago.

Bluesky oldheads will remember that brief period of time when the conservative trolls tried to storm the place and were flummoxed by the idea they would have to organically grow an audience and that someone who didn't want to talk to them could nuke every interaction they ever had from orbit

Now we have to listen to commercials from this fucking piece of garbage as well?

This is worse that child abuse on the state level. This is LEGALIZED child abuse on the state level.

Not a word about verifying the gender of boys... this is little girl specific. Child sexual abuse on a state level 'Surefire method' for destroying girls' sports seen in bill targeting kindergartners www.rawstory.com/project-2025...

I had no idea what those were until I read the ALT text. Dammit Alonso!!

Alonso likes to make friends with everyone he meets.

It is so incredibly dumb that my mouth loves spicy things but my tummy doesn’t know the difference between a jalapeno and being stabbed.

Okay, I read this a while back and have completely forgotten it. Or maybe I was really stoned & imagined it? Was it in Grady Hendrix's We Sold Our Souls? Someone made a parody of My Dinner With Andre but it was about either two horror film directors or two black metal singers talking over dinner.

This, too.

Sure, but maybe also a good point is that legitimizing a process of defrauding the constituents, and the government where they are represented, is a really, really bad precedent.

This.

Stop giving passes for illegal behavior. Period. Them gaming the system and him going along with it is NOT a win for anyone except the Repubs

This is what an actual *hero* of Irish music looks like:

I dare anyone to come up with a worse album cover than this.

Apparently, on Christian album covers in the ’60s, the only thing worse than the hair was the obliviousness to the lewd double entendres.

Wait a minute. Joni Mitchell’s Coyote is about a love triangle that took place during Dylan’s Rolling Thunder Revue??!!

Olaniyi Omotayo, Nigerian (1995- ), Empowered Unity 4, 2025, oil and acrylic on canvas, 36 x 48 in, private collection

Really impressed that dog kept the vomit out of the car (wish our cats would do the same for our carpets) and also really impressed by the other vehicle catching it on film.

"The dogs were innocent again this week" 😂

Wait a minute. Scarlett Rivera was married to Wim Wenders??!

If it eases your mind, AFAIK there are no AI video models out there that can make a single continuous clip that lasts anywhere NEAR this long, not to mention things like the dog's features being consistent and the background being completely coherent throughout the video.
