Correct. This is a President of the United States declaring himself a dictator.

And instead of Americans understanding that we’re now under imminent threat of martial law and tyranny, we’ll get a month of think pieces about what the President of the United States meant by his UNAMBIGUOUS statement.

What lovely murder mittens!

Back on the grind tomorrow

A male killer whale breaching out of the water in front of rolling hills and mountains

Today is bad. Here’s a whale. I hope it helps.

His name is AP9 “Red” and he is from the southern Alaska resident killer whale population.

Here’s more.

You can argue that Elon Musk isn't a neo-Nazi, though all the evidence points in the opposite direction, including his open embrace of the German neo-Nazi party AfD and the antisemitic Great Replacement Theory.

What you cannot claim is that he didn't know exactly what he was doing with this salute.

Obama’s inauguration -

I’m going to leave this here ALL day Jan. 20 …..🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸

How about Mariska Hagitay kicking ass in an R-rated Liam Neeson-style action picture? I'd go see that.

Brave yourselves for more of the like.

Right-Wing Extremists Are Abuzz Over Musk's Straight-Arm Salute Right-wing extremists are abuzz over Elon Musk giving an awkward straight-armed salute during an inauguration rally for Donald Trump.

The Nazis think this was a Nazi salute, but, hey, what would they know?

A Great Blue Heron perched still at the edge of a calm lake, creating a perfect mirror-like reflection in the water below. The bird’s intricate plumage, including its long gray feathers and white accents, is beautifully highlighted against a bright white sky. The stillness of the water enhances the symmetry, making the reflection appear almost identical to the bird above.

In a brief break between snowstorms, I ventured out to check how frozen the lake was. Out of the corner of my eye, I saw this stunning heron land gracefully on the water’s edge. I waited for the ripples to settle, and it rewarded me with this perfect shot.

Pace yourself Donald.
You haven't even been inaugurated yet and your grift is showing.

Try telling them they aren’t true Christians.
That’s the whole con and they can’t take it when someone sees right through it.

Listen up.

Indeed!

If I was Matt, of all people, I would probably not muse about where kids are gonna be spending their time.

Cool!

Yup, @jamellebouie.net has this exactly right. What these guys are celebrating/pursuing/yearning for is not masculine energy, it's *adolescent* energy. Drinking Red Bull, crushing Call of Duty, refusing to clean your room. It is indescribably pathetic. www.nytimes.com/2025/01/18/o...

It's about time. He's had enough!

Someone just found out how babies work.

Two seagulls walking. One’s beak is stuck through a slice of bread.

"What happened?"
"I’m stuck. It's so embarrassing."
“I guess things went... a-rye?”
“Please do shut up.”
"You should get out of the sun."
"Why?"
"Otherwise, you'll be toast."
"You're an asshole, Charlie."
“You’re right, you deserve butter.”
