It was a bad move, but it's not the end. bsky.app/profile/dana...

See, I thought it was a vessel for the earthbound Sumerian demon that primarily concerns itself with causing inexplicable traffic jams on the Eisenhower.

I’m reminded this morning of Coates’s remarks re cowardice and the Senate’s tendency to describe itself as “the greatest deliberative body in the world.”

Defending this institution is using it in moral ways, ways that can demand courage.

Fuck these thugs, and everyone who supports them.

Dems better put out a plan to nationalize eggs before 2030.

Spanberger now at 15 and change. please feel free to read too much into it.

“I love dogs, and she’s a monster.” Quigley on Kristi Noem’s integrity. That’s my rep!

ICE Abduction Inside Daycare: Press Conference YouTube video by U.S. Representative Mike Quigley

Quigley-Ramirez press conference on the warrantless ICE abduction at a fucking daycare this morning.

Okay, but what if I managed to be depressed and unmotivated in my 20s and 30s while being entirely sober?

On this day 68 years ago, Laika, a stray mutt from the streets of Moscow, died becoming the first living thing to orbit the earth. Good puppers.

This one goes out to all the secular humanists who stared into The Void too long and got depressed.

Turns out my sleep habits got so bad that they circled around to "historical."

You know it’s really bad when the bunch who exposed the Alexei Navalny poisoning plot are now focusing on the federal tactics in Chicago’s neighborhoods and suburbs

Week is starting off pretty dumb.

I was already there. I should have set out snacks.

The Revolt of the Elites by Christopher Lasch portended much of this. Thanks undergraduate senior seminar!

tolkien: man I'm sure glad my book about how much industrialization sucks has found its intended audience, dudes who build war machines and want to kill the night sky

Maybe I’m being too charitable, but I think some of the cynicism is just a desire to be comforted. Anxiety is driving, and what they want is something that will fix it. Or maybe a drowning victim trying to clamber on top of their rescuers is a more apt comparison.

Fun fact, according to the credits, the court wizard in the opening scene is THE Zoroaster.

You really gotta make sure you're not dealing with a Something Wicked This Way Comes genie before wishing something as open ended as "Show me wonders!"

Second "No Kings Day" protests likely the largest single-day political demonstration since 1970, with 4.2-7.6 million participants Here are the initial results from our crowdsourced crowd-counting estimates

Good evening. We estimate that between 4.2 and 7.6 million people turned out for the No Kings Day demonstrations held around the country on Saturday. This makes Oct 18 very likely the biggest single-day U.S. protest event since 1970. www.gelliottmorris.com/p/second-no-...

Ronald Reagan said it. #NoKings tomorrow 10/18

My kid liked the new ones too! I also learned my five-year-old will be able to hang with the lore nerds when he gets older after he casually started dropping names like Vinz Clortho and Dana Barrett in casual conversation.

Rest easy, Chop.

Most of the scenes that aren’t set pieces in the new season of Peacemaker are just people taking in shitty cars while headed to adventure in blighted strip malls and soulless office parks. Absurd gallows humor. Hair bands blasting. Basically my teenage years.

I consider Pargin to be part of an as-of-yet artistic school that includes Sam Raimi and James Gunn. Midwestern Decline Core?

Happy 166th Anniversary of John Brown's raid on Harper's Ferry!

If I recall my high school history, judicial review was affirmed under similar circumstances in Marbury vs Madison. There's a long American tradition of giving the executive what it wants to advance judicial interests.
