Every news story is now “State Senator Randy Pervert (R-Springfield) was indicted on 8 counts of lewd behavior with a child under 12 and has been put on paid leave from his two jobs as Border Patrol liaison and youth pastor at First Presbyterian (PCA) where parishioners say they were ‘blindsided.’”

Ghislaine Maxwell, a convicted child sex trafficker, gets gardening time, sports, therapy dogs, and spa products in prison.

Migrant children in custody are sleeping on concrete floors without enough food or clean water.

Our priorities are so fucked.

Oh, so “Democracy dies in darkness” is now a mission statement, not a motto.

A lot of Dems are going to take Bovino and Noem being fired as the finish line, and it's very important to make it clear to them that it is a starting line

People are right to be incensed, but there are more names to uplift. ICE killed an immigrant man named Silverio Villegas González in Chicagoland. He had children. Victor Manuel Diaz was kidnapped in Minneapolis and died in ICE custody on January 14. Their names deserve to be repeated, too.

Rob Reiner either made your favorite movie, or made somebody you know’s favorite movie. If you’re a Californian, he’s also part of the reason you or your friends can get married. He has changed more lives for the better than this asshole commenting on him ever did.

i think a (perhaps underappreciated) aspect of this whole situation is the extent to which every elite profession is filled with people who excel at drawing attention and want to be famous more than they want to do the actual job

Between banning books, non-white people, genders, immigrants, comedians, journalism…

And then pushing AI which just regurgitates new ideas…

America is headed into a deep cultural recession. This place is bleak and getting increasingly boring.

Food insecurity is ALWAYS a political choice. Famine is ALWAYS manmade. People go hungry because of other people’s decisions. We have more than enough food for everyone, and enormous amounts of it are wasted—literally thrown in the garbage—on purpose.

The whole point of democracy is so one person's derangement does not become everybody's problem. It's social hygiene. The fact the richest men in the West are a mix of grotty twelve year olds and deranged apocalypse fanatics is a problem, and we should be honest about it.

Ugh. I’m doing the same right now. And learning that my dad created email addresses for sone of mom’s accounts that my mom has no clue about and we can’t access because he never saved passwords.

I’ve had zero regrets deleting FB and X. They’re professionally worthless.

Right side view, from shoulders up, of Maleficent from Sleeping Beauty. Her yellow eyes stare at us piercingly over the edge of her high black collar with purple lining. Her crow companion sits on her shoulder like a sharp black shadow, looking ready to take off. Her striking black two horned headpiece stretches upward, profiled against a dark green background.

Original pencil sketch of previous.

Sketching Maleficent, with my wife Vanessa Vaughn as the model. I’ve always loved the design of this character.

Greyscale poster image of the face of a smiling Walt Disney surrounded by his Disneyland opening day words “To all those who come to this happy place, welcome.” A soft, shadowy image of the Disneyland Sleeping Beauty castle rests at the bottom of the image, and soft clouds float all around.

Thought it was a good time to draw Walt. Happy 70th to the Happiest Place on Earth. #WaltDisney #disneyland #disneyland70thanniversary

"We're all throwing dildos at women athletes to promote our memecoin" really puts a fine point on not just how sexist, mean and stupid so much of right now is, but also the grim degree to which we're just inundated with Stuff a 15-Year-Old Dipshit Would Think is Cool. A confederacy of Beavises.

Mary Shelley doesn't get enough credit for not only anticipating the silver-spooned narcissist techbro who recklessly creates technology without thinking through the consequences, but also for knowing that said techbro would be an absolutely terrible father.

I’m really gonna ask you please not to turn your nose up at the WSJ story and sneer that it’s a distraction.

These men harmed real people. They used their power and money to trap and abuse them.

That’s not a distraction, actually. That’s central to what matters.

Every American should read this ACLU lawsuit about what is happening in Los Angeles and California. It is the stuff of dystopian nightmares. This is not immigration enforcement. It is positively stuffed with videos and articles documenting racial profiling on a scale unseen since Jim Crow.

Gorgeous and cool. The coloration in the dark plumage is beautiful.

Whether or not you think he will deliver on his proposals, I think it's more than a little embarrassing that we've turned being able to afford the rent on a shitty one bedroom apartment & sending new moms a single box of diapers into radical ideas- it's not fully automated luxury gay space communism

NANCY PELOSI: We must find the next generation of Democratic leadership. Young, charismatic and exciting candidates who can energize the party. People that voters love because they're not 80 years old and sold out to big capital.

CHUCK SCHUMER (behind sniper rifle): Found one

PELOSI: Take the shot

Yeah, ours is at 4. Feels odd to wait.

Figure reference photographers may be overestimating how many swords were all drawing.
