A much-needed break from anything serious. 🥰

Just logged in to share this meme a friend texted me. Maybe y’all already saw it. But seriously!!!

But the News gonna News. Can't help themselves from trying to invent some controversy about Dems while Rapeupblicans get a free pass on everything from corruption to racism to rape.

My ice-cold boring take that will definitely not go viral is that a primary result with a margin of victory of roughly 1 percent tells you precisely nothing about The Future Of The Party.

Truly absurd headline. And most importantly, grossly factually inaccurate. Beyond any reasonable doubt, Trump is a sociopath; he does not grieve, nor is he capable of grief. Even if journalists are too timid to report that truth, they should not report the contrary as truth.

This goes out to everyone in the US, but especially looking at our politicians

I think @govandybeshear.bsky.social should just appoint a Dem to fill McConnell’s seat. It would force proof of life, and the state law that stripped him of that power should be challenged in court. I’m sure Thune would refuse to seat the appointee, but I think it’s a fight worth having. BE BOLD!

It's only a matter of time until Billy McFarland, of Fyre Festival notoriety, is appointed to Trump's cabinet. Where will he end up? My guess is Treasury.

The new office urinal screen has an orange creamsicle scent. Can we please not make urinals smell like food.

He thinks the fact that he signed America’s surrender to Iran in Versailles is a GOOD thing

Trump: "It's signed. I signed it in Versailles. I just signed it."

So I drank the algae from the Reflecting Pool and now I can hear the color strawberry

Greece: let's make yogurt, but give it the flavor and consistency of drywall joint compound.

For the record: The Washington Post is run by partisan hacks who think we won't remember that they took the *exact* opposite stance when it was Republicans pushing their own gerrymandering grab in Texas last year -- *without* putting it up for a vote.

For the record: The Washington Post can go fuck itself. Support pro-democracy media that doesn't have its head stuck up Donald Trump's ass. bit.ly/4qmEiFz

When asked how negotiations were going, Vance replied, "Sofa, so good!"

Settee down everyone, it's not that funny

Fifteen minutes before the President announced he was pausing strikes on Iran, somebody moved $500 million in oil futures. Somebody knew. Somebody told them. Or somebody is them. New piece ↓ open.substack.com/pub/adamkinz...

This Isn't Trading. It's Theft from Your Retirement.

Someone keeps making perfectly-timed bets right before the President speaks. The victims are your pension, your 401(k), and the country I took an oath to defend.
