Reuters photographer Jonathan Ernst noticed that Bondi flipped open a file during the Senate hearing and he zoomed in.

Inside were her crib notes for attacking the senators.

The GOP now practicing Cliff's Notes Fascism

In other words, under oath Bondi was purely a performance.

OK, this is wild.

In September 2023, geophysicists across the world started monitoring a very odd signal coming from the ground under them.

It was picked up in the Arctic. And Antarctica. It was detected everywhere, every 90 seconds, as regular as a metronome, for *nine days*.

What the HELL?

Woman with cup of coffee: come here you big, beautiful cup of coffee, and lie to me about how much we're going to get done today.

Yes, this. Just pick one thing off the list and DO IT.

If you're Canadian and looking to replace the role of Amazon, WalMart and other US corporations in your life, might I suggest:

*Home Hardware
*Canadian Tire
*London Drugs
*Giant Tiger
*Memory Express

Any other suggestions?

Do NOT open your door for any authority unless they have a warrant — from a court, signed by a judge.

NO warrant, NO entry.

If they arrest you, you ALWAYS have the right to remain silent, even if they don’t read you any rights.

The ONLY thing to say: “I want a lawyer.”

Humid maw 💀

Hello @bsky.app, here's to looking into more #bluesky and beyond... 😉

Well deserved! I originally signed up for Brennan and the intrepid heroes and stayed because of the fantastic cast, crew, content and values.

A screenshot of an article from SlashFilm entitled "Dropout was the best streaming service of 2024, and it's not even close." The snippet from the article reads: Meanwhile, Dropout's audience has continued to grow, clips of its shows go viral on social media every day, and its flagship show — and I cannot stress this enough — sold out Madison Square f***ing Garden(!!!), something that the current president-elect failed to do. And they did it all by staying true to their vision of making art that reflects the future we all deserve. One that rewards intelligence and kind-natured fun, stresses the importance of community building, and understands the life-altering power of a good sense of humor. Dropout is inclusive and innovative, the phoenix has triumphantly risen from the ashes of CollegeHumor ... and it's only $5.99 a month."

of all the nice press about dropout this ranks among the most meaningful 🥰 www.slashfilm.com/1739679/dro...
