Happy Election Day! Don't forget to vote.

If people can understand why Pete Rose did something bad, they should be able to understand why this is a bazillion times worse.

I used to sit and watch my ex do some prediction betting on elections year back. He thought it was fun. I thought it was a sign of very dangerous things. Maybe it was fun. I was more right.

This is insanity and will collapse everything.

The greatest moment in broadcast television history.

what people who don't play video games think video games are like

I’ve wondered about this stuff. Not the details I didn’t know about,, like this amazing piano, but did anyone see all the stuff get moved? Where is everything?

No correct aspect ratio upload to be found on YouTube, and I could be more rigorous about my editing, but I genuinely think this is some of the funniest 106 seconds in comedy history, and definitely in my top five Simpsons jokes.

good afternoon

Living off DayQuil and potato chips is not really helping, but it also is.

This cold I have sucks

It’s a class war.

it’s honestly impossible for me to respect any Trump supporters.

if you are proud of this man leading our country, I cannot respect you on any level. the lack of class, intelligence, or taste is just stunning. pure trash

It is a scandal totally unprecedented in history that the Vice President has shared a video depicting the President as king. It’s an obscene violation of every founding American principle.

And nothing will come of it. It makes me physically sick.

They didn’t have time to walk the three blocks from the offices to the main gathering spot and also write something in time for the front page with only, like, a couple months notice.

Minneapolis No Kings sign that says When we all do better we all do better

My kid with a moth at the Minneapolis No Kings

Agreed about the crowd control thing. Would have been chaos and easy for kettling everyone with all those barricades and corridors they had set up around the park.

I thought it wasn’t great. Hard to hear what was being said and hard to tell how big the crowd was. The state capitol grounds is so much better.

Ronald Reagan said it. #NoKings tomorrow 10/18

Drawing of a frog with the words Don’t Obey

They called Trump Jr. a kid too as a recall when Sr was running the first time around. 🙄

suddenly thinking of that bit at the beginning of Hitchhiker's Guide

Leni Riefenstahl would be so proud of these asshole kissers.

When I was small I was raised Catholic. I didn’t stay Catholic. I learned a lot. I never thought I would think of Catholics as liberal at all. They aren’t really, but in comparison, they are more so than others. I respect this and I hope they do more.

SHAPIRO: OK, so you've spent your career creating television without Al, and I could imagine today you thinking, boy, I wish I had had that tool to solve those thorny problems... SIMON: What? SHAPIRO: ...Or saying... SIMON: You imagine that? SHAPIRO: ...Boy, if that had existed, it would have screwed me over. SIMON: I don't think Al can remotely challenge what writers do at a fundamentally creative level. SHAPIRO: But if you're trying to transition from scene five to scene six, and you're stuck with that transition, you could imagine plugging that portion of the script into an Al and say, give me 10 ideas for how to transition this. SIMON: I'd rather put a gun in my mouth.

I heard they screened SAVING PRIVATE RYAN at the White House and Trump cried over all those poor soldiers who sacrificed their lives defending Normandy Beach.
