Vompires was right there. Losing my edge.

SEN. @gallego.senate.gov : "How can I negotiate? Trump’s in Asia for 5 days. Johnson is keeping the House out til January to protect pedophiles. So who am I negotiating with?"

Kernen abruptly ends the interview when Gallego won’t sit silently as he parrots Republican talking points

He's really nailed the Safeway rotisserie chicken look.

Remember a few Saturdays ago when federal officers were using tear gas on protesters? Well it turns out the National Guard was at the Portland ICE building that day

Dang, maybe allowing the majority of the web to be reliant on a few companies wasn't a great idea.

NEW: President Trump is asking the Supreme Court to consider birthright citizenship when all of the lower federal courts have unanimously ruled against him.

The 14th Amendment and 125 years of Supreme Court precedent are clear: If you're born on American soil, you are a citizen.

HAPPENING NOW: Portland Police Commander Franz Schoening testifies that federal officers on Oct. 18 barraged protesters with crowd control munitions — not because of any violence but because another federal officer accidentally shot tear gas onto the roof of the ICE facility.

Garlic, broad beans, onions, cabbage if you want to over winter, if you have some sort of hoop house you can do some fast growers like lettuce and radish.

Same, it was a strangely sweet movie and a wonderful statement on respecting life and death.

The Internet Is Obsessed with Shaved Fruit Ice, and So Am I The coolest dessert of the summer starts with a grater and a dream.

Something like this. I also do it when I grow too many cucumbers. tastecooking.com/the-internet...

Shaving frozen grapes down makes a really nice treat too.

Obvious wavenumber-5 mesovortex pattern within #Melissa’s eyewall earlier today — when the simulation matches reality. Just two decades ago, the very existence of mesovortices was still a matter of debate.

US citizen, 67, ‘has six ribs broken’ by Border Patrol agents, his running club says The incident unfolded Saturday in Chicago’s Old Irving Park neighborhood, where residents say federal agents disrupted a children’s Halloween parade

"According to his running club, the man, who is a U.S. citizen, was returning from a team run when agents pulled him out of his vehicle, tackled him to the ground and kneeled on top of him, allegedly breaking six ribs and causing internal bleeding"

#Melissa has made landfall in #Jamaica, and has preliminarily tied the record for the lowest pressure of any landfalling hurricane in Atlantic history: 892 mb. That was last observed 90 years ago with the 1935 Labor Day hurricane.
The storm does not look like it even notices Jamaica being there.

TAPPER: What do you hear from trans individuals who maybe aren't as outspoken as you are, but see ads like this during the 2024 election cycle? Because we should know this isn't just a one-off. I think this is one of the main ads the Trump campaign airs. MOLLOY: Yeah, I mean, they've spent tens of millions of dollars doing this. And it's not just the Trump campaign. It's Republicans across the country have been running ads making these similar points. They see trans people as a small group of just 1% of the population who's easy to demonize. And in talking to trans people, they've been very frustrated to deal with this. It's made a lot of people I know scared. And one thing that people are worried about is if the election does go to Trump, the trans people will be blamed for this outcome.

One year ago, I went on CNN and expressed my concern that if Harris lost after not defending trans people that somehow the takeaway would still be that trans people were the reason. I hate being right! www.readtpa.com/p/watch-the-...

Good lord. If I remember correctly, and I think it’s hard to verify unfortunately, this 219 kt/252 mph dropsonde wind gust in Melissa is easily the strongest the hurricane hunters have ever recorded

i cant believe how mad that list made me

so mike johhnson lied when he said earlier today that there was no legal way to access the contingency funds

There’s too much emphasis on climate change?! These fucking ghouls.

Public link to the Reuters story up now, see @librariancapital.bsky.social post.

Hurricane Melissa has just broken the record for the driest eye ever observed in a tropical cyclone, with a temperature of -4.75°C.

This is nothing short of astronomical.

Today, Mike Johnson will keep the House adjourned for the 84th day out of the last 96.

With full pay and benefits.

The senate has been working, so this is not about the shutdown.

It is about avoiding a vote to release the Epstein files.
