If Newsies isn’t your favorite Disney movie I’m going to ignore any opinion you have about capitalism.

This morning I heard someone say:

“Zach Galifianakis’s Between Two Ferns is just this generations “Jiminy Glick”

And my brain is just now starting to recover.

"When the truth offends, we lie and lie until we can no longer remember it is even there. But it is still there. Every lie we tell incurs a debt to the truth. Sooner or later, that debt is paid."

Next time someone says “Pull yourself up by your bootstraps”…

Remind them the phrase has always been a joke, because you literally can’t do it.

It started as a way to mock rich people who have no idea what it’s like to struggle.

It’s basically like saying “Let them eat cake” with a straight face.

They will die. That’s what I think they will do. But republicans don’t care. This is what they voted for.

4. On April 9, Abrego and four others were transferred to a different module in CECOT, where they were photographed with mattresses and better food-photos that appeared to be staged to document improved conditions.

(Republicans love their staged photo ops)

3. During his first two weeks at CECOT, Abrego suffered a significant deterioration in his physical condition and lost approximately 31 pounds (dropping from approximately 215 pounds to 184 pounds).

2. Abrego and 20 others were forced to kneel from approximately 9:00 PM to 6:00 AM, with guards striking anyone who fell from exhaustion. During this time, Abrego was denied bathroom access and soiled himself.

His head was shaved with a zero razor, and he was frog-marched to cell 15, being struck with wooden batons along the way.

This was all on day 1

1. Upon arrival at CECOT, the detainees were greeted by a prison official who stated, "Welcome to CECOT.
Whoever enters here doesn't leave."

Abrego was then forced to strip and subjected to physical abuse including being kicked in the legs with boots and struck on his head and arms.

7,500 is HUGE for Knoxville!!!!

Well done. Love the tat!

The Parade in DC is an excuse to militarize DC to prepare for their coup.

When I was a kid I wanted to be Russ Tamblyn.

It's Tax Day in Hell! Naturally, Clayton recruits notorious 1920's gangster Al Capone to help him dodge the Infernal Revenue Service. Al Capone played by @toddjawesome.bsky.social from @horrorvirgin.bsky.social Podcast

Unless you are doing it full time, it’s hard.

I work 65 to 75 hours a week for my day job. Working that much and still producing 2 90 to 120 min podcast episodes every week is brutal.

I don’t sleep much. I don’t do much of anything except for work.

I saw Monkey Man on a whim while traveling in London with friends.

I was blown away by how great it was. Seriously way better than I expected.

10/10 would also recommend.

He doesn’t.

He said it was Biden’s fault for hiring minorities 🤦🏻‍♂️

Meanwhile republicans:

I love everything about this story!!!

Wearing a symbol that stand for literally the opposite of what they are is the definition of exactly stupid to me.

But hey. What do you expect.

The Punisher is a cop killer.

And they are too stupid to realize they are glorifying a comic book character that would happily kill them 😂🤦🏻‍♂️

This is Natalie’s dad and I watching “The Turkey Drop” episode of WKRP in Cincinnati. It was a Thanksgiving tradition that he and I had

I’m grateful that even tho he was in the hospital we were able to watch it on Thanksgiving

This photo will never not make me cry. Rest easy Dan. Your work is done

I spent 11 hours driving today (500ish miles). It’s been a hell of a day.

Terrible way to start a new year.

My reaction to the part in No Hard Feelings when a Naked Jennifer Lawrence chucks sand in a dudes eyes before beating the shit out of him and his buddy for trying to steal her clothes while skinny dipping.

It’s official. HV is on Bluesky Babeeeeeeeeeee!!!!!

is anyone else yelling:

“Blade 3 proves the existence of vampire dogs“

at @iwriteok.bsky.social, while listening to Behind the Bastards this week?

Here’s what I’ve learned: Work on yourself. Then work for yourself. Don’t grind for your boss, grind for yourself. Invest in yourself. If you are forced to work in order to survive, let it be for a life you want.

Sometimes, life falling apart is the beginning of everything coming together

Last night, I drove back into San Diego in an Audi A7, married to an amazing woman, staying in a suite overlooking downtown, and making more than I ever have.

The road here wasn’t easy, but I’m so grateful for all the things that had to go right to make this moment possible.

In 2017, I left San Diego broke, heartbroken, and lost. I drove out in an old VW—the same car I used for Uber to pay bills. The relationship I moved across the country for had fallen apart after my girlfriend cheated on me. Life was hard.

But sometimes, falling apart is where rebuilding begins.
