He thinks it’s his money to distribute. Or keep. Because he doesn’t know what he’s doing, and he’s a crook.

The narrator here promoted a stupid philosophy for clicks, and is now promoting the INEVITABLE backlash and exodus from this stupid philosophy, for clicks. The @nytimes.com is bad, their editors are bad and, with a few exceptions (apologies @jamellebouie.net), the people who work for them are bad

Like the swallows returning to Capistrano, so do the “caravans” return to the U.S. during election season, as MTG dons her Hot Dog Guy costume, and could not *possibly” be more surprised.
Former Rep. and crazy racist Marjorie Taylor Greene is disappointed that Republicans would STOOP SO LOW as to lie about immigrant caravans invading the U.S. during election season. She is truly shocked.

Coyote vs Acme was as good as advertised, and even kinda sweet. Not just rehashing the greatest ACME equipment hits, but new, brilliant visual gags that had me LOLing. Highly recommend. Also, fck Warner Bros/ACME. Losers.

Since Voldemort Jr is in the news again, I thought I’d share my favorite Jared Kushner story (go look up the WaPo link yourself)
Not only is Jared Kushner stupid, he doesn’t care about anyone but himself But, to be clear, Jared Kushner is fucking stupid. Also a horrible person who shouldn’t be allowed anywhere near the US GOVERNMENT

I’m generally of the opinion that there’s nothing to be gained by going on Fox, surrounded by bad faith context and outright lies. HOWEVER. If you’re going to actually throw a punch, go right ahead. More people should do this. These people need to be treated like the weirdos they are.

Don’t worry, folks. This is actually an image of Hell. No, there’s no fire and brimstone. There’s just empty rooms, eternal waking light and other people. The worst other people, debating each other for eternity. Even Sartre didn’t consider it would be THIS bad.

There is no non-bigoted, not-racist reason our current mayor should not attend this year’s 9/11 commemoration. As a popular, non-criminal mayor, he should. The former mayor has been disbarred, and nobody gives a rat’s ass about what George Pataki thinks.

No. He’s not. He’s an artificial strawman propped up by dumbass outlets like Axios, WaPo and you. He’s not any kind of litmus test, much less the voice of the Democratic Party, and I wish people, both pro and con, would stop pretending he is.

“Vimes had never got on with any game much more complex than darts. Chess in particular had always annoyed him. It was the dumb way the pawns went off and slaughtered their fellow pawns while the kings lounged about doing nothing that always got to him; if only the pawns united, maybe talked the rooks round, the whole board could've been a republic in a dozen moves”
