Now THAT’S snoot-forward!

You want a snoot-forward extreme closeup? You can’t handle the snoot-forward extreme closeup!

This is about exposing the SPLC's informants in right-wing extremist orgs and driving them out so they can plot in secret. The bullshit criminal charges are just a bonus.

James Taylor’s keyboardist’s wife once told me “you give good phone.” Result: I wound up with backstage passes at Jones Beach.

Just startled my dog cackling at this.

If he does the “describing his conquests” thing again after she leaves, record it and play it back for her next time they’re on together and start going at it.

A blue heron stands outside an elementary school, ambivalent.

My local blue heron is beset by doubts about whether he should’ve stayed in school.

A row of vultures atop a temporary construction fence, apparently waiting to see if the corpse the mob is dumping will be completely covered in concrete, or if they can have some as a treat.

Counterpoint: some of them will absolutely pick over your carcass when you die.

We need a labeler here that lets everyone know.

If he manages to leave office (by whatever means) while still breathing, I recommend @tmbg.bsky.social: youtu.be/kSQ8tZ35t4U?...

General Washington would absolutely destroy Hegseth.

Pretty sure the 14 is for XIV rather than Mason, but I suppose it could be both.

Donald Trump is very unpopular and being seen as opposing Donald Trump in clear moral terms is an almost instant path to political and cultural relevance.

From the Edinburgh Evening News, 18 August, 1978: While they were waiting at a bus stop in Clermiston, Mr and Mrs Daniel Thirsty were threatened by Mr Robert Clear. 'He demanded that I give him my wife‘s purse’, said Mr Thirsty. 'Telling him that the purse was in her basket, I bent down, put my hands up her skirt, detached her artificial leg and hit him over the head with it. It was not my intention to do anything more than frighten him off, but unhappily for us all, he died.'

Say what you will about the worst members of the Roberts Court, but they all make sure their wives are in on the grift.

Jane Roberts, Martha Alito and Ginni Thomas are equal partners with their husbands in the grand project of destroying the United States and enriching themselves in the process.

There’s a soft on crime joke to be made here, but I’m much too classy for that.

(I’m not too classy in fact.)

Not enough people are talking about this.

Hungary’s incoming PM has said that Viktor Orbán used Hungarian government funds to help finance CPAC, the flagship networking event for GOP candidates, members of Congress, and conservative media in this country.

No, no. “Feable” refers to something for which you can charge a fee. They think the court will impose sanctions as well as damages.

So, he’s terrible at this but at least he consistently chooses the wrong side to be on?

I can work with that.

Trump says his life was better before he became president.

Dude, everyone's lives were better before you became president…

Everyone’s.

Probably not cleaned so much as never dirtied. Wasn’t selected to be the master and thus was probably only played once when it wasn’t chosen, and once when it was rediscovered on a shelf before getting digitized.
