That was me and my two reprobates did today. One sits in the tiny space in front and the other one curls up by my side and we’re all covered in an embarrassingly large amount of blankets.

Yeah hes got a real “love meeeee” thing going on.

Trump and his cronies all have that in common - they want to be seen and hailed as “good” and “right”. So trump insults reporters who bring up Epstein and RFK ignores the rise in preventable deaths he’s caused.

This is the Sidney Sweeney jeans commercial all over again.

Rest in power, Chairman Fred!

Right?!!

ATTN GOVERNMENT EMPLOYEES: The VA sent out an announcement with a link for employees to self-report their disabilities. I wouldn’t do this if I were you. They’ll likely use it to discriminate against you.

If we can only have art from people who "aren't in it for the money" that means we can only have art from privileged middle-class dilettantes. Making art being a viable career is responsible for nearly all worthwhile art, and if it's not a viable career any more we will get drastically less of it.

this is incredible but also i am a little worried this copy of Moby Dick doubles as a sentient grimoire for vengeance (a grimoire that will turn on you obv)

UPDATE: Trump Jr.-backed startup receives $620 million Pentagon loan In October, Popular Information reported that the Pentagon awarded a contract to Unusual Machines, an obscure drone company that President Trump’s son, Donald Trump Jr., joined as an advisor in Novemb...

This is a million times worse than anything Hunter Biden was accused of doing in even the most fevered right-wing conspiracy dream

I felt like that was the scary part. Even now, men can be perfectly fine watching a video of a woman getting kicked across the floor and say “ see it’s ok she loves him/it”. That dude would’ve let Epstein off and he’s not the outlier. There’s plenty more like him. After all he says this to a camera.

I’ve a work in progress theory the RFKjnr just hates everyone else to death. Oh there’s maybe a handful that it would hurt but generally he’s quite happy for folks to die.

Leaving aside the pure evil for a second, he’s a total dumbass. His whole argument is that if you make sinking random civilian boats legal, you need Palantir to make sure they’re bad, because obviously the laws will be super tight, right?

Nvm that they’re doing it now, sans law, sans Palantir.

You can't separate this from the Atlantic article claiming their are too many students with disabilities. It's a moral panic meant to push out young people with disabilities from access to resources and to reify ableist bigotry. It's exactly what they did to trans people.

once again

That’s the secret sauce in their transphobia that gives the bigots a warm glow inside; moral superiority. An ego that powers the need to hurt people likes to believe they’re special. So much so they’ve convinced themselves that they speak for the majority and anyone who disagrees is brainwashed.

Why is it there’s never a handy guillotine to be found when you really really need one?

Them: “25 years ago”
Me: *nods sagely* “1986”

It’s only a recession if it comes from the Democratic region of France, otherwise it’s just sparkling Republican mass layoffs and crushing inflation.

How Palantir shifted course to play key role in ICE deportations “The truly progressive position on immigration” is “extreme skepticism,” says Alex Karp, a longtime Democrat and the data management company’s chief executive.

fuck you Alex
fuck you

Self-ID for left handed to be ended.

Will now require a ten year wait and the opinion of three psychologists.

Firstline treatments to include breaking all the fingers on the left hand with a mallet.

NHS to offer sinister hand amputation to persistent cases.

As someone who owns both a trench coat and a fedora I often think, looking at Delon's effortless beautiful cool, how sad it was that Inspector Gadget came along 20 years later and utterly kyboshed this look for ever more

I think it says a lot about how our attitude to welfare has changed that the Christmas Bonus was brought in by Barbara Castle so that even the poorest families could afford a turkey and a few presents and now removing it would prompt protests and rising it would give the Telegraph an aneurism.

I cackle every time the picture I tweeted like 4 years ago of a page from a Lindy West book that made me scream with laughter, which subsequently exploded on like nineteen different platforms, recirculates past my eyeballs again

my brother sent it to me on Instagram once not knowing I took it 😂

I’ve sometimes fallen into the trap of thinking that complementing a creative person for their work is less sophisticated or desired than discussion or debate about it but very often the best thing you can say to them is hell yeah and that doesn’t make you dumb it just makes you nice

"genuine appreciation is somehow considered less intellectual than criticism" is such a word

the number of times I've said I enjoyed something and IMMEDIATELY, like a starting pistol just went off, someone gallops in to do "too bad you are simply Not Smart Enough to have spotted this list of flaws"

I think we can all safely agree that hypocrisy is the cement the holds republicans together. All the way from the religious right to the ethical and moral vacuum sat on the top of the pile.

Maxwell supporters like to gloss over or outright ignore the fact that she wasn’t “just” a procurer. She raped many of the girls with Jeffrey. She is a rapist and a predator who used her gender, much like Myra Hindley, to attract and reassure the victims even as she led them into the horror.

President Trump has now pardoned 12 members of Congress convicted of crimes varying from tax evasion, campaign corruption, lying to the FBI, bribery, insider trading, obstruction, etc.

If Jeff Epstein were alive today, he’d be a free man in Trump’s America.
