Bone Spurs the Second

I need Janeway to crash the ship into whatever needs crashing into to reset the damn timeline.

So, like, these 15 year-olds have promise. A handful of them will be old enough to vote in the next presidential election. I hope they get the chance.

The youth are giving me hope. My kid has a very politically mixed friend group. According to him and another friend, only one of the entire group of dudes thinks what's going on now is acceptable. Even the kids of Republican parents (in his specific group, anyway) are looking on with disapproval.

Wait, they ACTUALLY named this shit “Operation Epic Fury”? That wasn’t just an SNL joke?!?

What a bunch of dumbass 4chan call of duty incel keyboard warriors 🤣

We’re a couple of Zyn cans away from **OPERATION CHAD KILLMAXX: SPONSORED BY MONSTER ENERGY TOTAL TESTOSTERONE FEEL THE BUUUUURRRRNNNN**

This episode started slow for me, but by the end I was in tears and even more in love with both her and the Doctor. She's an absolute treasure.

I'm comforted, in a weird way, that you're here with us in this new terrible moment. Your early-2000s work helped me frame so much of what was going on, and having you around just feels... good. Or what passes for good right now, anyway.

There's. Always. A. Tweet.

Why are people who don't have microwaves so intent on informing others they don't have a microwave? Imagine if we did that for other things.

'I was making mashed potatoes and the handle broke off my masher!'

*haughty sniff* 'Oh I don't have a potato masher; I just find them unnecessary.'

When the satire recycles.

Teenage boys would mock this mercilessly.

ICE was very active in Minneapolis today, they kidnapped multiple people. ICE didn't leave, the media has moved on but we are still under federal occupation.

This is onion erasure and I will not stand for it.

in the 90s/aughts, I had regular commenters who would constantly chastise me for spending so much time on Limbaugh and (then radio-only) Hannity, tell me that it was too easy a target, beneath my talent. But I understood the significance of what was happening, unlike them.

Today in Stevens Point/Plover, Wisconsin, several hundred people gathered (during work hours and on just a couple days' notice) to protest a visit by JD Vance.

Don't count out non-big-urban areas completely.

Minor ones as well. Every Rhinelander needs its hodag.

Sadly, Plover is Stevens Point's trumpy sibling.

My kingdom* for an affordable pair of pants that won't wear out betwixt my thighs** in the first two years of ownership.

I swear thought I heard someone say "two for two!" before they all went nuts but I keep questioning my ears.

The ICE surge in Minnesota cost $280M to detain 4k people. Of those- only 30 were accused of violent crimes.

$9 million per capture of the "worst of the worst".

Renee Good and Alex Pretti were unavailable for comment….

No way anyone takes down Krissy.

Flavor Flav continues to be just a generally good dude.

I hate this take. I mean it seems legit, but I hate it.

Leave it to our president to run what could have been a nice national moment.

DO YOU BELIEVE IN MIXED FEELINGS?

Defend democracy like Connor Hellebuyck defended goal

Don’t turn on the State of the Union on Tuesday. Make it the lowest rated in history.

Very niche post:

I'm watching the WIAA (Wisconsin) D1 State boys' swim meet. SO MANY of the teams are co-op teams. I don't remember combined teams being such a thing back in the dark ages (90s), but maybe I just wasn't paying attention?

And what a name it is.
