If you’re thinking about getting some whistles to give out but 100 seems like a lot, they go fast. 200 turns into 50,000 before you know it.

do you think Pete Hegseth knows that his insecurity about his masculinity can be seen like an oil spill from space

Republican candidate: I think for myself. I don't have to do what the president says, I can disagree with him-- Trump (tweeting): Everyone has to call Congress "Toilet" now! Republican candidate: --and that's why I'm running to be your next Toiletman

in early 2016 one of the guys I worked with was really losing his shit about Trump and he said if he won he would start rounding up all his enemies and putting them into camps and the guy I work with and I were both like “Drew, you’re out of your fucking mind.” and now I think of Drew once a week.

Related news: I reviewed emails received yesterday by two federal agencies—SEC and NIH—instructing them to update all internal and public materials to say "super intelligence" instead of "artificial intelligence" in order to comply with Trump's executive order.

It's not even fun to clown on what a woefully insecure little wuss baby this guy is. Nobody in history has been less confident in their masculinity than this man by any definition of "masculinity".

Arizona and Virginia, both of which are governed by Democrats, are ending Medicaid coverage of care for trans youth, Transitics has learned. The bans, which go into effect on October 13th, mark the most significant Democratic capitulation to Trump's anti-trans demands yet. Cowards.

Democrat-led Arizona, Virginia Quietly End Medicaid Coverage of Care for Trans Youth, Acquiescing to Trump Demands
The policy changes, which go into effect on October 13th, see Arizona and Virginia join Kansas as states where Democrats have needlessly opted to restrict Medicaid coverage of gender-affirming care.

Vote early and in person, folks. If you're in a "vote by mail" state and can deliver your mail-in vote directly rather than relying on USPS this year, do it. Otherwise get it into the mail at the earliest possible date. www.democracydocket.com/news-alerts/...

The Postal Service is slowing delivery. Will your mail ballot be affected?

You're plus size. You've got a big ol' butt. You like full coverage underpants that stay in place on said butt but that don't have a super high waist. What underpants do you wear? I've worn Marks & Spencer underpants for ages, but they aren't as high quality as they used to be.

Discworld QOTD, from Night Watch
But the helmet has gold decoration, and the bespoke armorers had made a new gleaming breastplate with useless gold ornamentation on it. Sam Vimes felt like a class traitor every time he wore it. He hated being thought of as one of those people that work stupid ornamental armor. It was gilt by association.

Digger is not a lesson about the failure of original film at the box office it is a lesson of the failure of revolving the marketing entirely around “Tom Cruise Is In It You Like Tom Cruise Pay Money For Tom Cruise? Tom Cruise Actor?”

Skydance now owns Nick, Cartoon Network, Adult Swim, Comedy Central, and MTV, effectively ending US TV animation as we know it. Countless jobs will be lost, and fewer new shows will be created. An apocalyptic scenario for cartoons, yet it's maybe the 5th-worst thing about the Paramount-WB merger!
