Funny thing happens when you give in to the bully. He doesn’t leave you alone, he just learns he can take more from you next time. No particular reason this popped into my head.

So cool to be governed by cowards or assholes and those are your only two choices

Schumer needs to get the Steven Miller treatment, where he should suspect every meal he eats in public for the rest of his life has a 50/50 chance of having another human’s bodily fluids in it

Dems are gonna cave with no concessions for ACA and admit that basically this shutdown was for absolutely nothing. I don’t want anyone to starve, but giving up like this is why our country continues to be in the state it’s in. Midterms are coming but Pres Vance will just veto anything they pass.

Sounds like a great system!

Thinking about how much interest one would eventually pay on a 50 year loan. You probably don’t even start touching the principal for a solid 15 years, so you’re never leaving that house without taking a loss unless you hit the lottery.

Me literally every work deadline ever

I didn’t really want another 4 years of Biden, but I’m astounded at how much coverage was given to his mental state and cognitive abilities versus what we’re seeing now as they label rooms in the White House like a dementia ward.

At least these will finish baking. Crumbl are more cake than cookie

This is most likely for when he gets lost, and I’m not even joking

basically every 2024 truism is dead. Trump did not build a lasting multiracial coalition or turn young men into committed Republicans. You don’t need to cave on trans rights to win. The pundits have nothing left to tell you.

Big day for people who care about other people

"We have bowed at the altar of caution, and we have paid a mighty price." Mamdani nails it. This is 1000% what Democrats have blown it by doing. THAT got us here. The focus group bullshit that told them to “stop calling them weirdos” or “trans rights are a losing issue” can go pound sand, thanks

17 years ago today. Feels appropriate.

Tuesday spin: Radiohead’s In Rainbows. I’m not millennial enough for this one to be my favorite, but there are plenty of terrific songs on here. It’s almost like these guys are really good at making music!

Can’t wait until the day everyone votes out this worthless, posturing clown

Inevitably all of these think tanks are basically “what if Democrats were more like Republicans” and somehow conservatives never, ever need to be more liberal. It’s enraging!

These same people at some point will complain that “the season doesn’t feel as special anymore” and won’t understand why that is.

November 1st and I’ve already been Whammed. Dammit.

We need leadership that genuinely likes the people they’re representing. Amazing how rarely that actually happens.

Powerful image

I had forgotten just how hard this segment goes

A jack-o’-lantern with crazy teeth (carved from potatoes) and crazy eyes looking diagonal at you

Pumpkin is even more ready! Added some peppercorns for pupils.

A jack-o’-lantern with a huge grin and a bunch of jagged teeth made from potato carvings. He also has irises in the potato eyeballs.

Pumpkin is ready for Halloween.

one of my favourite goofs—if there was one thing we did at campo it was Commit to the Bit

A well lit a-frame cabin radiating light from inside. There’s a white, modern interior with wooden chandeliers and other cool rustic accents.

Temporary home for our anniversary weekend

We are leaving on vacation for our anniversary tomorrow and our beautiful senior dog Kona has decided this is the week to develop doggie vertigo and lose her appetite. She knows she’s not coming and she is making sure we know that she knows.

Thinking about the security detail needed for a packed event in a 90,000 sq ft ballroom attached to the president’s literal home and getting stressed out and angry again

people playing music/videos on their phone speakers in public is more than just mildly annoying and is instead a leading indicator of the decline of community and empath
