Are you there, Margaret? It's me, god. WHAT IN THE HOLY FUCK IS GOING ON DOWN THERE?

Lando Calrissian tells Han, Leia and Chewie, "I've just made a deal that'll keep the Empire out of here forever."

This is fine.

That's rough.

MSNBC Grandmas in Skechers seamlessly reclaiming the frog from 4chan Nazis in about six weeks has gotta be the political upset of the century.

Bottom: DC antihero Peacemaker looks at a mural of Adolf Hitler in front of the US Capitol with an American flag with a swastika on it with the text "Oh, fuck. How'd I miss that?"

"Indistinguishable from an ordinary American flag to the naked eye" is certainly a choice of words. Pretty sure we've already seen this plot twist recently.

it's crazy how fast movies become dated. for instance, the 2021 movie "Don't Look Up" no longer makes sense, because if an American scientist discovered a planet-killing comet heading towards us today, their main response would be "oh thank fuck for that"

We got any workout streamers based in DC who hang around Pennsylvania Avenue that we should be keeping an eye on as things continue to spiral?

Naturally her reasoning is we lived through it, died, and were reborn. I guess that is a little nicer than thinking we are *that* old.

Me to my husband: You ready for the government shutdown?

8: Are you going to live through the great depression again?

Me: Wait, what do you mean again?

Democrats should never vote to fund a government that's waging war on its own citizens and firing officials *because* they insist on following court orders instead of breaking the law. Let Senate Republicans nuke the filibuster. None of this is normal and it shouldn't be treated as such.

i got raptured but when the archangel gabriel unhooked me from the string of divine grace he frowned and said "ugh, tagged for research?" and he threw me back down to earth real aggressive-like

I suffer from migraines and if someone tried to take away my pain medication, I'd stab them with a kitchen knife without remorse.
Needless suffering is just that - needless.
And whoever wants you to be in pain, hates you.

And my 8 year old who is autistic? Give me an effing break, I know damn well it's not the medications I took, not the vaccines. She's just like me and her dad! It's genetic.

Now taking away the pain meds? It's cruel, backwards, and such a nasty grift. 🙄

You know what is still first on the line of defense for me despite the fact I've been taking it daily? Acetaminophen. Add in Botox injections every two weeks, and an antihistamine, and hope that by the time I deliver there's some relief. It's baffling they want to take away one of the few options.

This is exactly where I'm at right now, pregnant in the third trimester and having a migraine episode I can't fully break since May. I finally got a referral after months to go to the neurology department that actually sees pregnant people, and with six weeks left my options are still limited.

Mental health? Struggling. Third trimester? Dragging. World around us? Burning.

It's time for an unhinged art project.

8: Not all Labubus are haunted and want to kill your pets, just some. I want to ask Santa for a Labubu for Christmas!!

Me:

great news! you're not actually seeing karl rove, john yoo, and david frum criticize the administration's lawlessness more stridently than dem leadership. you, reader, were infected with rabies by a brown bat 36 hours ago and this is all just the virus working its way through your nervous system

“Wait but if they declared anti-fascists enemies of the state then they were basically admitting the state is actually fascist, no?” — some poor baffled student trying to study for their Fall of the American Empire history exam in the year 2525, probably

That song is now on my 2025 playlist. 🫠

The fact Trump was the one to break the news hit me as odd too. Ugh, I really don't like this timeline.

I really hope when the Epstein list finally comes out, someone puts every name on it into song to the tune of the Pokérap.

I love that my unavoidable cringe response to my daughter's loose tooth is exactly the motivation she needs to keep wiggling it. Not so much loving that she finds it hilarious to do sneak attacks inches from my face, but hey, motivation nonetheless.

The tired old "Anakin and Padme" meme: Anakin: I did it! I went back in time and saved us from RFK!" Padme: RFK *junior*, right?...

Literally the second meme I've made in my life.
