Honest to god a DCCC text saying "[Name], we are going to crush these motherfuckers in November. I know we've been sometimes desperate sounding in these texts before but right now I'm telling you if everyone kicks in $30 we can rip their still-beating heart out before their eyes" would work on me rn

Absolutely shocked to wake up this morning and realize I lost my entire life savings on a Donald Trump to win the Nobel peace & economics prizes Kalshi parlay.

doesn’t that mean they nailed the Jags home game experience

My advice to Republicans is to stop running Nazi and Nazi-adjacent candidates, but I don’t get a sinecure writing for the NYT a few times a week for saying that.

"Jon Ossoff, my advice to him is, if you start calling your political opponents Nazis, maybe it's time to shut up. That's just not what we do here in this country." -- David Brooks, this evening. Remember, Brooks still gets very handsomely rewarded by the fossilized media for saying shit like this

Ah, yes. Fascist Germany clearly did great against that Stalin guy in World War II. (Once again begging these dumbfucks to read one (1) single history book.)

Jesse has been saying for quite a while now that he’s sorry to inform you that since the Communists (like Joe Biden, for example) have taken over, we basically have no choice now but to become fascists or succumb to full Communism. Posting this 3 days before January 6 was a nice touch too.

A sad day for Superfans everywhere.

happy bare minimum Friday to all who celebrate

Hope for the Gulf Coast’s sake that Trump Sharpies the hurricane’s path out of their way.

I understand that accurately describing the position of the GOP at this point makes you sound crazy, but no one accurately describing them is making all of us feel crazy.

Guilty as charged.

I fucking hate it here.

Dr. Samantha Hancox-Li@sjshancoxli.liberalcurrents.com · 4d ago

but now that coalition is basically toast, the social conservatives have swallowed the other two or driven them out, and so we get these bizarre claims that the state owning companies and directing markets isn't communism but immigration and trans rights are

ah damn, RIP Margaret Hamilton. she took safety-critical software engineering seriously, and got people to the moon and back. news.mit.edu/2026/margare...

Don't rush me, sonny. You rush a miracle man, you get rotten miracles. You got money?

I keep saying Mitch McConnell should not step down. Keep him going to the office with a squad of nurses, pissing his pants and smiling as he wonders where his family is. No dignity in his death deserved.

ALEXANDER: Why wouldn't McConnell's constituents be better served if he stepped down? TILLIS: It's the same Q people ask of Biden A: Biden is no longer POTUS T: But guess what? We're following the bad advice of people who supported him. The difference is Mitch's brain is as strong as it ever was

Good morning to everyone except Thom Tillis. 🙄

Up early today only to find that I’m so far 0/3 on 2027 Nobel Prizes.

Right now society at large is paying most of the bill for people who drive giant pick-up trucks and SUVs, my humble proposal is that we should stop doing that and ask them to pay it themselves.

Glenn Kessler gonna find some way to give this three Pinnochios.

SUSAN COLLINS: I was successful in getting road salt removed from the Canada tariff list TROY JACKSON: What about everything else? We can't eat road salt

Just saw one of the government-funded Trump ads and nearly threw something at my TV

It’s really rude of the trans community that I’ve been on Bluesky for years and none of you have told me about the Transgenderification Beam. I shouldn’t have to find out from Ken Paxton!

lol

Also: many of those same pundits think they are "data-driven" because they survey voters and conduct focus groups. That's so damn quaint. Trump's wealthiest allies purchased all the largest social media platforms+all the largest mainstream media outlets. Focus groups CANNOT measure those effects.

Suncor v. Boulder is gonna end in a 4-1-3 decision where Roberts (with Thomas, Kavanaugh, and Barrett) holds that no business can ever be sued, the liberals of course dissent pointing out that this is simple tort law, and Gorsuch concurs but suggests that *maybe* a native tribe could have standing.

“Grain of salt because it’s Tesla…” - @kairyssdal.bsky.social with the understatement of the week, even though it’s only Monday.

This, but in addition @crayoncolours.bsky.social & @courtneybonneau.bsky.social are two of my absolute best friends in actual touch-grass real life even though I met them on the hellhole that is Twitter.
