broke a man the first time i told him this. He came up to me and said "I just don't like tattoos" and I said "well, I'm not trying to have sex with You" and I saw something permanently rotate inside him
"men don't like short hair" "men don't like tattoos" "you'd be prettier if you lost weight" sir, let's get on the same page: I am not trying to fuck you
In the Trump testament, King Donald sees David smacking the shit out of Goliath and is so frustrated that a little guy can beat a big guy, he picks up all the rocks around David’s feet so he has no more ammo for his sling.
Big “Germany, frankly, has been fine on the Sudetenland” energy.
Trump: "Russia, frankly, has been fine on Ukraine."
This whole thread is eye-opening in the way those accounts are a new avenue for plausibly deniable corruption.
Musk would do this through those f*cking Trump Accounts they opened in every child's name without parental consent. I HATE these SO much. Parents cannot close the accounts. Parents cannot reject donations to the accounts. And we must hold on to donations for at least 5 years. I'm a state lawmaker.

Part of the answer to "how did we get here?" is that many major journalists—since 1998, Crawford has covered SCOTUS for PBS, ABC, and CBS—are lying bigots. Here Crawford is praising a guy who asked a dumb racist question, glitched out when asked why, then admitted he wanted a Christian theocracy.
This is a really striking tweet.

I guess this is CBS “News” now.
I'm for strict liability for gun owners. Anything that happens thanks to their gun, no matter the circumstances or who pulls the trigger, is their responsibility. I'd extend that to criminal as well as civil liability. Your gun, your crime. No loopholes.
The shotgun belonged to the 16 y/o shooter's mom. She said, “If I could have prevented this, I would have.” Yet her kid accessed her gun and ammo. Since the U.S. won't control guns, it must at least prosecute negligent parents. www.nytimes.com/2026/10/16/u...
I was so moved by this Christian dad’s response to a despondent trans kid whose father wouldn’t support their care on “Christian” grounds. It’s never OK to use Christ as a weapon of hate. God is love. 💗 www.reddit.com/r/cisparentt...

Yet another great reason to vote for the Democrats in 2 weeks 👇
Bill Kristol is skeeting links to Wonkette. It's a beautiful world we live in. (Sometimes, at least. And things are looking up.)
"This week we’ve seen two red-state Democrats in close races calling out their opponents’ gross bigotry and making clear that fellow Americans’ gender identity shouldn’t be treated as a political football." open.substack.com/pub/wonkette...
I’m old enough to remember when Trump was asked if he would disavow the Ku Klux Klan, and he wouldn’t.
this shit makes me want one of the dem '28 planks to be signing the icc. i know it's a pipedream atm but it's such a simple rebuttal to all the whining from the right "if you didn't do anything wrong then you have nothing to fear"
"In Arizona, a Trump Administration immigration judge ordered a 1-year-old baby appearing without a lawyer to file an asylum application, according to court filings..." www.nytimes.com/2026/10/15/u...

The generation that got to buy cheap houses thanks to a postwar construction boom, then blocked new housing construction to juice their asset values is now whining that they have to pay taxes on their unearned wealth. Just breathtaking selfishness.

I’ve done the math, and if my property taxes paid for nothing other than my kid’s schooling, I still only paid for a quarter of their costs.
“I should only pay taxes for things I use” is a fun precept to adopt after you’ve stopped using services that were funded by the full tax base — you would have needed to pay much much more when your kids were in school if seniors hadn’t been pitching in with property taxes back then!

the hardest lesson that overly-online millenials will ever have to learn is that cringe is over, cogent expressions of civic virtue are cool now, and we need a reboot of The West Wing yesterday
I think the thing about the El-Sayed clip is it’s the first time in awhile I’ve heard anyone with any level of authority tell someone that they shouldn’t be a bigot and they’re wrong for doing it
