I'm not a button collector per se, but this has always been one of my favorites. Found on the ground in my old hometown in the mid-80s.
A pinback button with a picture of Jim Baker and the words: Jerry Falwell Can Suck My Dick.

trump can make up the how but nothing is self-executing and the process by which something becomes a reality matters a great deal as to whether it is a reality

i am genuinely bewildered by people who say that the rise of white nationalism in the republican party is a response to the "woke left." like, did the woke left cause pat buchanan's 1992 presidential campaign? is the woke left why steve king had a long career in congress?

Kash Patel defends FBI’s new policy on bestiality at Senate hearing
Sen. John Kennedy grilled the FBI director about a recently revised policy that doesn’t automatically disqualify job applicants who have engaged in bestiality.

'The United States' is not a specific patch of soil, it is a collection of communities under one constitution, bound by those self-evident truths. It can - and has - traveled. One of those self-evident truths is that someone *born into our midst* is, presumptively, one of us.

was talking about this with ganz on the podcast today, but among the many reasons that race science is obvious nonsense is the fact that it is a giant exercise in begging the question. not one person obsessed with "race science" thinks that it might prove "white" intellectual inferiority...

LAST WORDS FOR JERRY GARCIA By Robert Hunter Not the same thing as the more widely published Elegy, which is magnificent and worth your time to look up if you haven't seen it. From a privately published collection of Hunter's elegies and funeral poems for friends and family
Go naked in the world, 
Wind for your cloak and coverlet.
Whom the Gods love best
they reward with early death,
gather them into the sun,
reflect them in moonlight,
crown them with comets,
anoint them with shooting stars

Go naked to the Throne of Stars,
go as the stars go,
arrayed in their own
incandescent light. 

Go and our hearts go with you.
Return to the sourceof the soul
by way of the Sacred River,
royal road to the sea
where all shall be music
and dreams shall be dreams
no more, but visions
of the World's foundation
scattered among the stars. 

Dust shall be dust
and the voice of dust
shall be music,
pleasing to God
who sent it forth
in search of melody
to crown His silence
with eternal song

The only responsible attitude for liberals and progressives to align on is that all right-wing grievances, claims and believes are not only false, but malicious lies. Nothing passes the mouth of an American conservative in public life that is not meant to harm and destroy the lives of millions.

In short, there are valuable lessons we can learn about drones & interceptors & magazine depth & mine-sweepers, etc. But the key lesson is: no amount of tactical excellence can salvage strategic incompetence. Who lost the Iran War? The American voter did, that damn fool. And he ought to feel it.

It's ugly and rotten-hearted to speak ill of the dead if they were a powerful politician who pushed constantly for war and misery. It's perfectly fine to speak ill of the dead if they were some nobody immigrant who was near a cop.

Looking at the illustrations Alice and Martin Provensen did for the Iliad and the Odyssey in 1956 and taking pleasure in noting how diverse they made that world. Everyone bitching about the new movie’s casting is more racist than a children’s book publicist in *1956*
Three Ancient Greek warriors painted in a distinctive mid century modern style, with lots of texture and an earthy color palette. They stand in a row, looking toward the right. One is pale skinned, one has reddish brown skin, and the third has medium brown skin. Three painted Ancient Greek figures standing in front of a map. One, a dark skinned woman with red hair in what looks like short twists, plays a lyre. Behind her is a pale skinned woman with dark hair looking emotional. Behind her is a dark skinned man with blonde hair and a beard.

On October 31, 2023, I tweeted a link to a story I wrote for Politico about how I interviewed three bespoke shoemakers, who said they think Ron DeSantis is wearing lifts. 

On January 21, 2024, Ron DeSantis dropped out of the Republican primary for President. On June 11th, 2024, Rishi Sunak tweeted: "You will always be better at spending your own money than the government is." I retweeted him and said "I think your wardrobe proves this is not true." 

About a month later, Sunak lost his election. On September 2023, I posted a photo of NYC Mayor Eric Adams, noting that he should have worn over-the-calf socks. 

In September 2025, Adams abandoned his re-election bid. On May 2026, I retweeted a video of Spencer Pratt, noting that male politicians should not wear black dress shirts. I wrote: "dont know anything about spencer pratt. but imo it's not a good idea for male politicians to wear black dress shirts, which were historically associated with seedy nightclub owners and criminals. does not inspire trust."

A month later, Nithya Raman surged past Pratt in the LA mayoral race, putting her up for the election against Karen Bass.
