Lover and disseminator of political (and other) snark, "Love Me, I'm a Liberal"

I've never found Count Binface funny. But the right having a humourless strop about Count Binface is the most joyous political phenomenon in recent memory.

As far as "books for kids" go I do sometimes wonder if the existence of a YA shelf robs young folks of the joys of early unsupervised exposure to the ranting of depraved communists and libertarian sex-weirdos in the SFF section, an important inoculation when it doesn't destroy 3-10 years of yr life

Antisemites citing the Talmud as "evidence" of what Jews believe is always funny because it's roughly equivalent to printing out a decade of Bluesky posts and going "this is what autistic people believe"

Beshear on McConnell: "I'm concerned. I get that we all have a right to privacy for our health, but when you run for an office like mine or Sen. McConnell's you answer to the voters. If you're in the hospital for an entire month, you owe it to the people who elected you to give them an update."

Troll Claim: Hakeem Jeffries did bare minimum (or nothing) other than "strongly worded letters" Anyone who has been tuning in knows that is disinformation and troll fuckery that inures to the benefit of Republicans and other detractors (like DSA) Rebuttal:

Look, I’m sorry but I just can’t believe the Knicks came all the way back. And I bet a lot of my fellow basketball fans feel similarly. This calls into question the legitimacy of their Game Four win.

Again, Bill Pulte is a 38-year-old -- no really, 38 -- who only holds a BA in broadcast journalism and absolutely zero experience in the intelligence field. He has no qualifications for this job at all. Aside from being a psychotic lickspittle to the president.

"The pick is bad for U.S. intelligence and a threat to civil liberties. But the greatest danger of appointing Pulte as DNI is that it’s a further step in Trump’s plans to subvert free and fair elections in the United States, in 2026 but especially in 2028." open.substack.com/pub/thebulwa...
