Hypothetical Necromancy

So many coverups.

Release the Epstein files.

Release the Homan tapes.

Release the Venezuelan fishing boats evidence.

Say what you will about the writing in this season of The United States Of America, Bill Kristol’s heel-face turn is great stuff

Ellis: "I see little reason for the use of force that the federal agents are currently using. Pointing guns, pulling out pepper spray, throwing tear gas, shooting pepperballs and using other less lethal munitions do not appear to be appropriate."

Ellis also finds that the feds' use of force in Chicago "shocks the conscience."

In video provided exclusively to MSNBC's The Weekend: Primetime, immigration agents are seen attempting to pull a man out a window of a Chicago home. Agents also jumped a fence into the locked backyard and manhandled people doing work. Hear from the homeowner tonight on The Weekend: Primetime.

Oh GOD 😢

More from the scene

Hey look how safe it is just to the southwest of me. So, so safe. From. Uhhh. Abuelitas selling tamales, HVAC workers, guys painting houses, and people working at a car wash.
Living in Chicago is FUCKING SURREAL. We’ve been invaded.

Unfortunately the warnings were ”being cops” and “having tear gas”

Here's a neat trick they teach in authoritarianism school: If you purge the people who measure the effects of your policies (BLS, MMWR), you can just claim everything's great, and nobody can prove how much damage you're doing.

“Hey the President’s masked and armed secret police are kidnapping people near your child’s school.”

The petsitter got Teddy a catnip lollipop.

dracula: so we meet again mister bond
bond: have we met? sorry
dracula: at susan’s party 
bond:
dracula: in malibu
bond: oh right right the vampire guy
dracula: ha ha yes the vampire guy

What the FUCK.

I’m so sorry. My mom has been gone for 40 years - I always put out a photo of her, make her a martini, and light a candle to remember her.
(Martini gets tossed because gin, yuck)

Always, I was part of OG Sentinel because old.

Whether it’s Fox News’s Brian Kilmeade advocating killing homeless people by “involuntary lethal injection” or MSNBC’s Matthew Dowd bringing up things that Charlie Kirk said, both networks have crossed the boundaries of decency.

Sitting on the floor while my husband does my business taxes last minute (I filed an extension). Can I contribute? No. Am I here mostly to make my husband feel that I’m as miserable as him while we do this? Yes.
(Ouch.)

I had my gender affirming Botox today. My nurse esthetician shares a birthday with me and she is expecting a baby due right around our birthday and I’m SO excited because January birthdays are generally pretty dull.
(Look, we all need happy things, right?)

I bought a high-res copy of this picture, framed it, and hung it in my bedroom to remind myself that nobody thought I would be here.

this is, hands down, the best video I've seen on men's influencer content and it's not close either

Let me just say that I cannot WAIT for the next @knowledgefight.bsky.social episode.

“Aunt Susie, you can’t say no one you know has been sick with Covid. Your brother Harry is in the ICU with Covid RIGHT NOW.”

I mean the thing is, I don’t support what happened to Charlie Kirk. But Charlie Kirk supported what happened to Charlie Kirk.

For everyone saying political violence has no place in this country…

Remember two Democratic legislators were shot in Minnesota just this year.

And America shrugged and moved on.
