You know Kamala, she’s going to be on SNL, that’s right, SATURDAY Night Live. I’ll tell you what folks, we loved MAD TV didn’t we? Our beautiful Miss Swan. People say you can’t do that impression any more.

*crowd of failed Realtors boo*

That’s right, I’m going to be your Miss Swan

This bed ain't big enough for the two of us.

Look I never play this card but I studied German politics and the rise of fascism and this IS THAT. We have arrived at the end game. Not hyperbole or exaggeration this is THE EXACT LANGUAGE. Anyone who has studied this recognizes it like a meteorologist seeing a gathering hurricane

Great move

Trump’s top general calls ex-president ‘fascist to the core’ General Mark Milley expressed his concerns about Trump to author Bob Woodward in March 2023

seems like a big story that the former president's ex-chairman of the joint chief's of staff thinks he's a fascist www.independent.co.uk/news/world/a...

Every time the ridonk "don't be political, , you'll alienate half of your readers" bullshit comes around, my only reply is:

No, I won't. I ran those bitches off *years* ago.

Just like you ran off the people who could see the subtext in your "apolitical" books. 🤷🏻‍♀️

This book NEEDS to be turned into a movie. One of the darkest pieces of Disney history that the company doesn’t want you to know.

I highly recommend!

At times like this it's good to look at things that will calm you down and bring you joy.

Microsoft one drive SUCKS

This hits like a freight train

really can't be overstated that a core pillar of MAGAism is to steal your tax dollars and give them to Donald Trump

ah yes, what is worse? passing a law through congress to add more seats to the supreme court — as per congress’ explicitly stated constitutional authority — or a violent coup to overturn the constitutional order?

UPDATE: THE DOCKWORKERS WON

Per AP, More Perfect, Labor Notes:

Shippers agreed to a 61.5% wage increase over 6 years, details still being negotiated, but current contract will be extended to January 15th while they working it out.

Some reports there's also an agreement on automation.

An Instagram story from the New York Times, the photo features a small child peaking into a large well-stocked pantry through a door that says “cuisine.” The caption reads: Our reporter’s 6-year-old son hates eggs. They traveled to Paris to see if a dozen French chefs could change that.

Wow. My childhood was very different than this.

Tim and Gwen Walz pick up post-debate slices at Justino's in Midtown. Reporters shout questions, which they try to ignore.

REPORTER: Would you all be willing to talk a little bit more about your religion?
TIM WALZ, to GWEN: We're Lutherans. We don't talk about religion.

I think if you tell a lie so toxic that a network that had promised not to correct any of your lies nevertheless feels morally obligated to do so, the whole event should be paused while a giant red L is painted on your forehead and you should have to do the rest of the debate like that.

bro just let this girl eat her meals in peace please

this reminds me of when someone asked Idris Elba at the height of the MeToo movement if he thought the climate was suddenly more scary for men and his answer was basically like “well, for men who are predators, yeah”

he himself was like “this is good shit, bring it”

There’s a lil ghostie in my Dad’s wood flooring and I always look forward to seeing them when I visit 👻

my take in the times debate round up

A virtual certificate with text "Celebrating 10M users on Bluesky, #9,051,105, miles134.bsky.social ‪@miles134.bsky.social‬, joined on Sep 5, 2024"

Bluesky now has over 10 million users, and I was #9,051,105!

The key to understanding this is to remember Trump’s support is not the working class, but the local aristocracy, the car dealership owners et al. who see themselves as Johnny Big Boy Business like Trump’s jmage.

Can’t remember the last time I was as excited about a book as I was for @christopherbrown.bsky.social’s new one, A Natural History of Empty Lots

Why is the election still a toss-up? We asked the 15 stupidest people in America

people (on here) yelled at me about this when i said it before but a) you need traffic enforcement and b) speed cameras are vastly preferable to cops.

Sad
