God, the analogy is so clear from this. Hegseth is Trump's dog. He will be aggressive on behalf of his owner in situations that don't need aggression. He will bark at the government workers trying to help. He'll do unnecessary physical activities to prove that he's a good boy.

Ossoff is 900% better at Obama karaoke than Josh Shapiro. (All kidding aside, we could do a lot worse than this.)
Acyn@acyn.bsky.social · 2mo agoOssoff: This is what small men like Donald Trump and JD Vance and Stephen Miller will never understand—that our national greatness flows not through our blood or our genes, but through our ideas.
I don’t know what punishment we have all earned but “celebrate America’s 250th birthday with the surviving member of Milli Vanilli, a disgraced German pop duo” seems right in a cosmic sense

Just finished ALIEN and man. You couldn’t make this movie now. Most of the cast is dead
the most demented part about trumps posts is that he signs them as if we don’t see his face and name at the beginning. it’s like your crazy aunt on facebook that would randomly comment on one of your pics from 5 years ago, “missed you at easter but your dead mom loves you. love, aunt nance.”

Absolutely electric atmosphere in positively Scottish weather in Lake Placid for Jessie Diggins's final World Cup race, a 20k skate. She takes a risk in traffic on the last lap, falls, winds up 12th. Stuff happens. We'll be lucky to see her like again.
