A baby spider tried to commit suicide by rappelling down into the soup I was heating and I SAVED ITS LIFE. Who says people can’t change?

Hegseth reposts video on social media featuring pastors saying women shouldn't be allowed to vote The man who oversees the nation’s military has reposted a video on X, formerly Twitter, about a Christian nationalist church that included various pastors saying women should no longer be allowed to v...

I think a lot of Americans believe their country is the one they learned about in school. They haven’t grasped the fact that it’s well on the way to becoming a Christofascist dictatorship.

quick reminder: if someone refers to people as "illegals," they're probably incredibly racist

One simple thing you can do is STOP PAYING TO HAVE POISON SPREAD ON YOUR LAWN!!!!!

It’s even weirder than Covfefe

It has taken me a year to figure out that I’m not really mad at George Clooney. I’m mad that an actor has such outsized influence on our elections.

New aging achievement unlocked: I went to see an oral surgeon today and the dewy-faced boy resident explained treatment options and then very kindly said, "If you were my mother, I'd tell her to get the implant."

This is how we white women need to use the “I demand to speak to your manager” energy our mothers taught us. More of us need to confront these kidnappers the way Lululemon Lady did.

Getting my annual mammogram. Check out my pro tips @mcsweeneys.net!

"On the day of your exam, don’t apply deodorant or scented lotions. Also, be sure to remove any nipple piercings, nursing children, and/or tiny nipple hats."

❤️ to you, @tracyslater.bsky.social!

The #1 way to explain America working properly is by saying “comedians can make fun of he President on TV.” A good way to explain fascism is “the President forces companies to fire those comedians as a condition of allowing them to conduct business.”

I just left the Everglades Immigrant Interment Camp. No, I’m not using their ridiculous name. It was a very tough to witness humans in those cages. Every Floridian should be ashamed that our taxpayer money is being used for this.

Freedom from kings.
Freedom from fascism.
Power to the people forever. ♥️

Happy Independence Day 🇺🇸

Thank you for this generous review! 💃🪩🎸

As a young gay man living during the original HIV/AIDS crisis in the ‘80s, this was easy for me to see, but hard to accept. However the experience helped me to realize that it was happening again with COVID—only this time, the “acceptable losses” had expanded to include nearly everyone.

Such a balm to take a break from the news and just enjoy this delightful summertime humor from the scorching hot @miriamjayaratna.bsky.social, @alisolomain.bsky.social and Kerry Elson!

A big, long-haired orange cat stands in front of a computer monitor, blocking it almost completely.

I have page proofs for Last Night at the Disco to motor through this weekend, but Clarence thinks I’m missing the beauty right in front of me.

Do everything you can to survive.

Thrive out of spite.

Be incredible.

Be amazing.

Love yourself.

Whatever you need,
Be it for yourself.

Fuck these monsters.

Do yu like ca'ats, Zohran Mamdani?

AAP will continue to publish its own vaccine recommendations after CDC advisers sow distrust The CDC’s Advisory Committee on Immunization Practices plans to form a work group to review child and adolescent immunization schedules despite them undergoing constant review in real time.

The American Academy of Pediatricians bluntly telling us the current CDC can't be trusted, and of course they are absolutely correct

Oh, I always will!

Can we now rank names for that bridge that connects Nyack to Tarrytown because I think Tappan Zee would win over Cuomo tonight.

Tonight I'm texting Nancy Pelosi and asking HER for $5

It’s hard to overstate how angry rank and file Dems are at the Dem establishment right now. And if I were a self-preservationist incumbent I would take note.

They have made the world living hell for no reason whatsoever. People will ask why this happened in a decade and there will be tremendous effort to make it more complicated than “they were evil, stupid, and bored”

Oh, so we won’t need vaccines this fall because most of us will be dead in this WWIII Trump just started. Now it all makes sense.
