The saddest thing about Trump's Kennedy Center obsession is that it's absolutely simple for rich people to get their name on a prestigious building. The Donald J. Trump Pediatric Cancer Research Center could open tomorrow if he spent just a fraction of his wealth, but that's not how he's wired.

My profile pic is of Major General Smedley Butler, the man who probably saved us from the last attempted fascist takeover by the Epstein class, and who, in a just world, would have a statue on every army base. en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Smedley...

So, has anyone ever seen a Salisbury steak in any context other than a Hungry Man frozen dinner? Like have you ever seen one on a restaurant menu? Ever shown up to a dinner party with a casserole dish of them? Or does your family hand down a cherished Salisbury steak recipe?

A new D&D Barbarian subclass I've been working on, the Path of the Rhythm: a barbarian who loses themselves in music rather than raging. Really hungry for feedback, good or bad! #dnd #ttrpg #homebrew #barbarian

So if the next Democratic president signs an executive order renaming Mountain View, California to “Googlesucksdonkeyballsopilis”, will Google update maps accordingly?

An unwritten law of the universe: digging through old records in any flea-market, garage-sale or resale shop, in any part of the country, you’ll find this:
The 1977 album “A Place in the Sun” by soft- rock pioneers Pablo Cruise

On a family vacation in a fairly rural part of Western Minnesota. Had surprisingly good sushi at a restaurant last night, delicious Nepalese street food at the local flea market today. Just a nice reminder that everything gets better when immigrants add the best of their cultures to ours.

There’s a new strain of swimmers itch in Minnesota, because apparently nature has had enough of humanity’s calves.

Walked over to a friend’s house in a homemade alien costume, and when he saw me he said “Oh, that’s not the alien costume I was expecting.” Because I have more than one homemade alien costume Need a Time Machine to go back and tell 10 year-old Grumbleputty that we did it!

If you post AI art, I’m blocking you. Art is a skill you can learn, there are countless talented people eager to teach you for free. Instead you’ve chosen to use a planet-murdering technology to steal their work and call it yours. (I was an early adopter who saw the light)

As our tornado sirens have stopped going off for the second time tonight just as we were headed for the basement, I'm reminded of how Project 2025 seeks to privatize the national weather service, and I'm further convinced that the only sane option is to cook and eat all of the Heritage Foundation

Went to my local #nokings rally in Gurnee yesterday. Lovely people from all walks of life, lesbian couple alongside Vietnam veterans, all peacefully and passionately saying this must end. Most cars honked and gave the thumbs up, had one black pickup “roll coal” at us (probably cost him $20 in gas!)

The USPS IS NOT LOSING MONEY. THE USPS IS SPENDING TAX DOLLARS ALLOCATED TO IT BY THE BUDGET. THE USPS SHOULD NOT BE REQUIRED TO ZERO OUT ITS BALANCE SHEET IT IS NOT A BUSINESS IT DOES NOT HAVE SHAREHOLDERS. IF THE USPS IS OUTSPENDING ITS BUDGET IT SHOULD BE ALLOCATED MORE BUDGET.
