Yeah, he’s still the worst. Venezuelan Trump stan is second-worst, thanks for the reminder.

Pro tip for protesters: Frog costumes are fine, but if ICE Barbie is in town, avoid dog costumes.

Collect a claim from one side, collect a claim from the other, present them both to the reader with an awkward shrug and a "who can say?"

And the photo choice -- Noem's looking down ... on what? The reverse angle showed a small crowd and a quiet street. But can't show that, it's biased to one side!

vought's view is that the president is an elected dictator and lo and behold he is seizing outright the power of the purse

Ahh, I thought a slab of wood was integral. So it can be just a big-ass platter of assorted food?

That’s nice because every charcuterie board I’ve seen in person has been heavy on the meats.

I would be up for that. But, serious question, if it was arranged on a really nice ceramic platter and not a board would it still count?

So good. When I realized his drumming wasn’t computer-generated I was in shock.

Yeah, that was kind of tongue-in-cheek, but as they are often very meat-heavy, I rarely experience one that I can eat from. And I don’t see much difference from, say, a normal (non-board) platter of assorted foods.

I don’t get the charcuterie board trend. Oh, you cut up some food and put it on a board? Wow. Amazing. You must have gone to college for that.

Great, the psycho will probably change the name to DikKok and it will be flooded with white supremacist and animal abuse videos.

Only about 20 pages in but already it’s one of my favorite books about magic that I’ve read in years. Highly recommended!

Imagine wearing a hat that declares you’re right about everything. What kind of deluded idiot would do something so painfully stupid and narcissistic? Jesus Christ on a pogo stick, the awfulness is off the charts.

Around the same time "penis" was first uttered on newscasts. That was wild.

This is a professor at Rutgers who teaches a class on the history of anti-fascism. He also teaches about human rights. He has received multiple death threats and been doxed. He is relocating to Europe for his safety. This is where we are in the US now. www.theguardian.com/us-news/2025...
