Writer. Editor. Layabout. I mostly talk politics, baseball, and movies/TV, particularly Star Trek, Marvel, and related geeky stuff. Unless I actually know you, don't DM me. I have a real quick blocking finger.
No. I cannot.
Into the garbage bin they go, right next to Target.
We don’t need your shitty brands! You’re expendable but trans people are not.
Trump’s Iran war will reinforce North Korea’s view that nuclear weapons are the only path to security
The same assholes who chastised President Biden about pulling US troops out of Afghanistan are now super quiet about thousands of Americans being stranded in the Middle East all because a white supremacist criminal wanted go on a bombing murder spree.
When Joe Biden was president Republicans talked about $3.50 gas like it was a crime against humanity.
Every time I go to Taco Bell, I get the cahoots.
The cahoots?
Who decides what we do when Putin & Netanyahu disagree? Does that go to John Roberts?
This is insane, untenable, inhumane language. Journalists everywhere should be sounding alarms. People need to start telling him “no”. This has to stop.
Having a hard time. Dissgreeing here. The damage to Goddard Space Flight center, where i spent seven years working on Hubble, was compliance in advance. It need not have happened, and the damage it has done will be generational.
I have created a diorama of the Partridge family attacking the Brady Bunch family. My life is very boring.
Edmund Burke has entered the chat? 😂
I am imploring media to remember that just because someone writes an OpEd doesn't mean you have to publish it
Also known as "using insider knowledge for war profiteering."
tomorrow Leavitt will be asked about this and sneeringly reply “he was very clear, only woke commies like you wouldn’t understand”
Do you really need 20 gallons of gas? You can have two gallons
This is who the white/Left/‘progressive’ Dems back.
Platner, a man with neither the qualifications nor the character to be a Democratic Party senator.
Misogynist. Racist. Homophobic. Antisemitic. NAZI TATTOO.
Say NO to Platner.
Elect Gov. Janet Mills to the US Senate.

Thank you, Donald Trump!
"We don't have footage of the actual dignified transfer, but trust us, it was totally dignified"
I think (and have argued elsewhere) that there was a plausible possibility that tariffs would code as "decisive executive action to protect workers." That most voters came to understand how tariffs work is a rare civic triumph in which media did a good job in informing voters of complexity/nuance.
My favorite is a woman who proudly has "I speak woke" in her bio while she's policing black speech. Completely oblivious.
The Trump admin is going to be remembered for so many bad things but ultimately they all end up in the same place: it’s an admin of death.
White people didn't think enough of the late Rev. Jesse Jackson, Sr. to have him lie in state at the capitol like Billy Graham. They didn't think enough of the late Rev. Jesse Jackson Sr. to air his funeral on national TV.
But they still feel its their duty to police the speeches at his funeral.
Black people are not allowed to talk amongst themselves without white people feeling its their duty to police those conversations. The response from white people to this statement by Kamala Harris is an example. Those responses to her statement are also a glowing example of hit dogs hollering.
Yeah, I already knew you're cool with yourself. No one could miss that.
Voting against Graham Platner is the lowest of bars, FFS.
He talks like the first draft of a Steven Seagal script.
