No to Amazon, yes to Bookshop.org

The title graphic for a NYT story titled, "'In Triage Every Day': a Beleaguered Speaker Says He's Overwhelmed." It has a fuzzy picture of Mike Johnson and an American flag.

Nancy Pelosi smirks, only backwards, and in high heels.

If only journalists had the integrity of the Miss Universe Pageant Contestants who stood and walked out in solidarity when the pageant director called Miss Mexico a “dumbhead.”

Almost everyone with a high level of racial resentment tended to vote for Trump in the 2024 election, regardless of educational attainment. Conversely, those with a low racial resentment score tended to support Harris, whether they had a college degree or not.

The fact that the American president’s former best friend is helping Russia blackmail the president should be a far bigger story than it is.

It should be on the front page of every major news outlet

They’re all just looting the treasury now

Ryan Moulton @moultano Oil is the most Lovecraftian thing that actually exists. You're telling me that there's a black ichor under the earth, made from the ancient dead, whose burning can realize all the dreams of man but only at the price of slowly returning the earth to its primordial state?

This holiday season, give Jeff Bezos and Amazon the gift of zero dollars. 🥰

Reposting because, and I say this with love, some of you are going to see this and go “oh shit, I need to check my bottle” and then immediately forget about it so if this could affect you, go check right now before you even scroll to the next post, I mean it.

SNAP BENEFITS, which increased by Billions and Billions of Dollars (MANY FOLD!) during Crooked Joe Biden’s disastrous term in office (Due to the fact that they were haphazardly “handed” to anyone for the asking, as opposed to just those in need, which is the purpose of SNAP!), will be given only when the Radical Left Democrats open up government, which they can easily do, and not before! Thank you for your attention to this matter. President DJT

Trump confirms he is weaponizing hunger

Happy Zohran Day to all who celebrate

“They were careless people…they smashed up things and creatures and then retreated back into their money or their vast carelessness or whatever it was that kept them together, and let other people clean up the mess they had made.”

F. Scott Fitzgerald, The Great Gatsby

At top, a black and white chart labeled "Normal Distribution," showing a curved line that starts low at the left, curves up and peaks in the middle, and returns to the same low position on the right. At bottom, a black and white chart labeled "Paranormal Distribution," showing the curved line transformed into a typical ghost (a floating white sheet draped over an upright body) with two dark dots for eyes.

Here’s something really graphic for Halloween:

“Art Deco doesn’t go with, you know, 1850 and civil wars and all of the problems,” Mr. Trump said. “But what does is statuary marble. So I ripped it apart and we built the bathroom. It’s absolutely gorgeous and totally in keeping with that time.”

This is like Drunk History meets This Old House

It’s like, if someone owns a Cybertruck and they’re like “I didn’t know I was supporting the Nazis” my response is always “YOU KNOW NOW!!”
Also: “WHY DID YOU EVER THINK ALUMINUM BATMOBILE WAS A GOOD CAR??”

I don’t think I’d vote for a person with a Cybertruck tattoo on their chest either.

Amazon is helping fund a $300 million build of a ballroom for the White House.

Independent bookstores are donating to food banks and organizations that help with food insecurity.

They are not the same.

I’m not going to take the turkey out of the freezer until it’s defrosted.

Glad to hear the new couch is Snax-approved(TM)!

USDA is legally required to use the contingency funds on SNAP benefits for November.

In July, President Trump and Congressional Republicans enacted the largest cuts to SNAP in history.

The reason they aren't planning on providing SNAP benefits is that they don't want to.

If you are appalled to learn that over 40 million Americans rely on SNAP benefits, perhaps you would like to discuss instituting a living wage rather than using tax dollars to subsidize the poverty level wages paid by some of the countries largest employers?

Only you can resist fascist liars. It’s Smokey the Bear.

When the GOP has lost the Deep Ones vote, they are well and truly fucked.

As big a Stephen King fan as I am, I’ve not yet made it all the way through the Dark Tower series. Working on that now!
