I do not want to create an account or open a subscription I just want to buy a thing and never hear from you again why is this so hard.

Fire every goddam Dem consultant and start over.

Carson watching TV, which says "the president attacked the pope, then posted an ai image of himself as christ, while the vice president tried to school the pontifF on theology, and the defense secretary quoted the quentin tarantino film pulp fiction, believing it to be biblIcal verse."

It's a pontiff-icating DORK TOWER FRIDAY! Theological new strip up now at the Mothership:

I am still flabbergasted by people wearing cowboy hats unironically.

These men carry them around in little hard cases

Social media apps as Lord of the Rings characters, a thread:

Twitter: Twitter is Gollum. Began as a normal halfling. Overexposure to evil left it thin and stretched and bitter.

Give someone the power to do anything they want, and they’ll do exactly that. That’s the horrifying part—the only thing holding some folk back from the worst atrocities they can imagine is the fear they might not get away with it.

Tried taking a break from doomscrolling by reading Empire of the Vampire by @misterkristoff.bsky.social, but can’t seem to get my head out of the stupid evil we are living through:

TEXT - Just wanna point out that the only people "shoving trans issues in your face" are politicians, and if trans people just had the rights to their healthcare and existence, you'd hear about trans people 99% less than you currently do, cause they'd just be simply existing.

NO MORE FUCKING TURNING THE PAGE.

feel like we're in year two of legal people posting judges opinions saying trump and his cronies fucked up and are shitting on the law and then nothing actually happens. has a single one of them even been held in contempt?

I'm really sick of liberals and centrists thinking that compromise is something you start with instead of something you end with

As always: Republicans are going to kill us all, and Democrats are going to get us all killed. Republicans want to murder trans human beings and erase them from existence but that doesn't mean the Democrats aren't terrible on this issue and will instead just let them wither and die without support.

It’s a Wonderful Life bank run scene.

“You're thinking of the $175 billion in tariff money all wrong. As if I had the money back in a safe. The money's not here. Your money's in the White House ballroom, the renaming of the Department of Defense, the $10 billion transfer to the Board of Peace, and a hundred other unauthorized actions.”

Love that AI, a thing we hate and don’t want, steals everything, ruins everything, shittifies everything. Drinks our water, plagiarizes our art, pisses all over our information fidelity, drives kids to suicide, serves the right-wing, and fucks up our devices and services. Good job, techbros!

What is a movie that is so important to you that if someone tells you they haven't seen it, you stop everything you're doing and watch it with them?

Big Trouble in Little China

I assume anyone crying has just been keeping up with current events.

A great original, but also a great cover. Both artists also sang it together in another video.

I also passed by Mary Lou Retton walking to my plane in anTexas airport (I think Houston). This would have been a in the late 1980s, a few years after her ‘84 Olympic performance.

This is a great thread of random encounters!

Sitting in Louisville airport next to Jon Voight and his family the day the day after the KY Derby. (This was before I knew what a pos he was)

we need to talk about that Ring Super Bowl ad

"Your pets may not necessarily love it when you kiss and hug them"

Yeah well I may not necessarily love picking up poop so I guess we're all gonna have to make some sacrifices.

ok. does anyone know if it's twice per athlon or every two athlons

I'm seeing positivity for Jon Ossoff on the timeline so I just want to remind everyone that he is the only Democrat to break ranks and vote against a Biden federal judge appointment.

He did it because the judge had moved a trans woman that was being raped in men's prison to a women's prison.

no disrespect, but I'm not subscribing to your Substack for reasons that should be obvious if you google words like "substack" and "nazis"

ICE is executing Americans and terrorizing our communities.

And Trump is asking for a blank check to continue funding this campaign of terror.

I voted NO, and every member of the Senate should too. Not another dollar for ICE.
