This is your annual reminder that if teens come trick or treating this weekend, they could be doing way worse things. Let them have one more year being a child, another year at feeling the magic, let them be care free and have fun, compliment their costume, and give them some damn candy.

Updating my LEGO White House

We are so back

if Jimmy Kimmel's political humor is too hot for you to handle, I'm not sure "snowflake" even cuts it as a term of derision for the level of fragility you've achieved

They did what now?

After Charlie Kirk's death, teachers and professors nationwide fired or disciplined over social media posts At least a dozen faculty and staff have faced fallout over insensitive comments online.

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.

I find it really disturbing that the vice president of the united states of america spends time arguing with random posters on social media sites.

Kid Rock: I will no longer sell my music in California.

Scott Baio: I will no longer act in California.

Governor Newsom: My policies are working.

I’d like an ICE agent to explain how putting monetary value on taking a human being from one place to another by force is not human trafficking.

I keep thinking about how Gov Abbott had plenty of funds to fly and bus migrants all across the country but couldn't come up with a million for a flood warning system.

Gang, I promise that I can think that the Texas officials were horribly criminally negligent AND that people on the left gloating over kids drowning is reprehensible. I have MAD multitasking skills like that. You don’t have to pick just one!

Twelve million Americans may lose their health care because Republicans want the wealthiest people in our country to be a fraction of a fraction wealthier than they are now.

I feel like everyone memory-holed the fact that Michael Bloomberg—who spent over $8 million supporting Cuomo—ALSO campaigned on a free bus proposal in 2009.
