Two years ago we were really worried that we would not have 2026 midterm elections. Even six months ago I was worried about it. I’m too snake bit to get my hopes up, but here we are. The fight is far from over, but what happened yesterday is encouraging.

Retired, married, atheist, liberal, ally, blood donor. Antisocial misanthropic curmudgeon. Objective truth. Facts. Empirical evidence. No DMs.
This is really worth listening to. A four hundred year old speech. MAGA ears are deaf to this.
Ian McKellen reciting Shakespeare's writing on racist anti-immigration riots in London during his time. It is excellent. They have been banging the same drum for 400 years.
If you see this, you’ve been Rick Rolled! 🤣🤣🤣
LOL!
This has been reposted a lot, but it really is worth taking the time to listen to it.
🔥 “Answer the question, Tommy — I think you’re the one who needs to read the constitution, not me.” @abdulelsayed.bsky.social skillfully handles a bigoted Islamophobic heckler and exposes him as the true religious zealot in the room.
No Kings protest in St. Peters, Missouri today. It’s really encouraging to see such enthusiasm from people of all ages.
Last night Zach Bryan wore a “Free Palestine” shirt at his show in Gillett Stadium. Hat’s off to him! He’s doing another show there tonight. I think this is a pretty big deal. I’m impressed. This is encouraging. www.rollingstone.com/music/music-...

Many people know who Missouri senator Hawley is because of the video of him running from the J6 insurrection and the stupid raised fist gesture. Now more people know who Missouri senator Schmitt is because of his humiliating performance yesterday. They bring shame on our state. They are pathetic.
Here’s Yoda commenting on Missouri senator Eric Schmitt’s performance today.
Watching sports media talking heads talking about sports like it’s important. Like it matters. Hit a little ball in a hole. Throw a ball. Catch a ball. It’s important to analyze. It’s absurd. I enjoy watching sports. It’s not important though. It doesn’t mean anything.
New South Park tonight. Comedy Central on HULU. They have plenty of fodder. I’m curious to see what they’ll do.
This is pretty cool! This is the Bills saying “fuck you” to MAGA. We need more of this.

Maria Bartiromo has been fired from FBN. I don’t know why she was fired, but I think it’s possible that she was too MAGA for Fox. If that sounds implausible, I understand.
I don’t understand how this can still be happening. I don’t understand how people can be this fucked up. I’m not spiritual, but if what comes around goes around, these fucks are going to be karmically bitch slapped into an unnamed dimension.
MASKED ICE AGENTS IN DANBURY! Unidentified officers are violently pushing residents & tearing families from their homes. A city of 50+ languages where 1/3 of neighbors are foreign-born refuses to accept this brutality. Papers don't define dignity—solidarity is safety 🎥 DanburyUnites4immigrants
With all the bizarre international news lately, why has oil been dropping the last couple days? I have no idea. I think something may going on under the radar. I’m probably completely wrong though. Everything is so crazy, reading these tea leaves is way beyond my kin.
