I’m So Used to Gay Tragedies That I Almost Missed Romance

This piece by Wesley Morris, which in today’s print edition is entitled “At Last: Gay Romance Without the Suffering,” was the balm I needed at the end of this day.

Wonderfully written. Here’s a gift link.

I can’t stop laughing. Perhaps this is my Joker moment but everything is so insane. This man is the nom to run Homeland Security and he is dumb as a box of rocks and also paranoid and racist.

Stephen Miller must be next to be fired. He has to go.

My entire feed rn is: may Kristi Noem burn in hell, experience the suffering she had caused others, etc etc and I kind of love my feed.

Yes. Because he likes to see people he is throwing under the bus squirm.

Classic narcissistic discard phase.

CNN: Approval for President Trump's East Wing ballroom project – from a government commission that oversees planning for federal buildings and land in the nation's capital – is delayed after it received over 32,000 comments from the public overwhelmingly opposing the construction.

If you're at the airport and Kristi Noem is doing the ominous little message from the TSA screens, you no longer have to do anything she says. Leave your laptop in the case, whatever.

Kristi Noem has done a stunning amount of damage and it’s good she’s gone.

But this doesn’t change the fact that we need a complete overhaul of DHS, impartial investigations into the killings of two American citizens, and information on children that were taken from Minnesota.

MARKWAYNE MULLIN????

Those confirmation hearings are gonna be lit given that he can’t tell his ass from his elbow.

Good riddance to the puppy and person killer though.

Kristi Noem.

Brutal. This is what Trump did.

“.. Trump has quietly asked Hill Republicans if he should fire Homeland Security Secretary Kristi Noem, the latest sign of her tenuous standing inside the West Wing, according to multiple Republicans who have spoken with the president ..”

We went from making up reasons like "weapons of mass destruction" to you know what, fuck it we don't need to even lie, the president "had a feeling" that they pose a threat so we just bomb them so we can. A country doing this can't expect peace inside.

Free and fair elections are the cornerstone of our democracy. But right now, they’re under attack.

Several Republican-controlled states have redrawn their congressional maps to give themselves an unfair advantage in the midterm elections.

[WARNING: This is a bit graphic.]

A Marine Corps veteran protesting Trump’s War on Iran had his arm broken by Capitol Police and GOP Senator Tim Sheehy. It appears to be a compound fracture.

Not gonna share the video of Republican US Senator Tim Sheehy breaking a protesting Marine's hand, but you can find it on @charlotteclymer.bsky.social's timeline.

I'll just say that in a functional country, Sheehy would be expelled by the Senate.

Democratic Senators should publicly push for that.

Oh, we have fun. #AEWDynamite

Horrifying. Jesus Lord in heaven.

Rep. Robert Garcia (D-CA):

“For months, Atty General Bondi has been instrumental in orchestrating the White House’s cover-up of the Epstein files, and has failed to comply with our bipartisan subpoena for the release of the complete, unredacted files. The American people deserve transparency.."

“They got money for wars, but can’t feed the poor”—Tupac

These are the names of the schoolgirls Trump and Hegseth murdered in Iran.

Everything is so stupid.

What a waste of resources and time.

The question is always "what if a kid is wrongfully transitioned" and never "what if a trans kid is denied the ability to transition and endures years of excruciating dysphoria and has to have multiple surgeries later in life to fix the issues caused by going through the wrong puberty."

It happened in Williamson County as well. Williamson County neighbors Austin, which is where Talarico lives. I heard about it because I live in Austin. It wasn't just Dallas County.

Talarico Wins Texas Senate Primary as He Tries to Bridge-Build His Way to 30-Year Upset State Rep. James Talarico (D) will be Democrats’ standard-bearer in November, as...

Talarico will be Democrats’ standard-bearer in November, as they try to take advantage of Trump’s unpopularity and a potentially deeply flawed Republican opponent to do the impossible — finally, finally flip Texas blue.

So if Kamala Harris had been elected do you think the United States would be in a war with Iran? Just asking...
