Hey so “underage girls” are…children. The word you’re looking for is children. They’re not like, women-in-waiting or women-lite or whatever. They’re children. I think some of you are very uncomfortable with what that means for you but it is still true.

Mystery and crime writers are also experiencing similar shenanigans—after extra long reply times—because MRM owns Ellery Queen and Alfred Hitchcock too.

This was @victoriastrauss.com's take in Writer Beware in July 2025:

Important to understand the Epstein stuff and the fascism and the corruption are, in a lot of ways, really all the same story from different angles: powerful men who can and do abuse vulnerable people around them because they can, and because systems of elite accountability catastrophically failed

As I've said, we're in a federally mandated relationship with the worst person you know. That's fucked up.
along with the heinous literal crimes i think a lot about how there's a kind of moral, national crime in subjecting all of us to this, to this consuming our politics, committed against us by a number of powerful and connected people up to and including the president

A survey, conducted on behalf of the Democratic group EMILYs List and obtained by POLITICO, finds that most voters wouldn’t support Platner over Republican Sen. Susan Collins after learning of his past social media posts

I just walked out of federal court where I pleaded NOT GUILTY to the charges against me.

I will continue to stand up to authoritarianism and call this out for what it is: a political prosecution.

It's just crappy mass-produced supermarket spices, but I do love throwing together a nice spice blend. Be it a chili blend or a curry blend, it makes me feel fancy.

The worst part* of all of this is that Sanders is gonna use it as a smokescreen to Patton Oswalt his way out of publicly backing a Nazi for Congress.

Cool. At least the wealthy elites will be happy as the poor and disenfranchised continue to be beaten, murdered, and disappeared on our streets.

Listening to the new episode of Nathan Fillion and Alan Tudyk's podcast (with special guest Jewel Staite!) and, I know we now have to pretend it never existed, but it really makes me want to go rewatch Firefly again.

Alderman Sigcho-Lopez was right to call out Pritzker today about the state police arresting protesters. Pritzker responded that the state police are protecting protesters, and that just isn't true. State cops have arrested and brutalized protesters to facilitate ICE operations. That's reality.

Nice try, bucko. You're still getting primaried in 2028.
I will not support the Republican bill that’s on the Senate floor because it fails to do anything of substance to fix America’s healthcare crisis.

I wish someone in America's past had realized that political parties were a horrible fucking idea...
Hey, a lot of people are talking about changing affiliation from Democratic to Independent.

Let me tell you why you shouldn’t do that in Colorado.

One of the main ways to get a primary challenge candidate on a ballot is to caucus for your party. You need to be registered as a Dem to caucus.

So many takes about Democrats being cowards, or stupid, or naive, or whatever. They’re bought. Everything they do makes sense if you stop assuming they’re representative of anyone but a few big donors.

I'd bet real American dollars that it wasn't concern over *holiday* flights that made the Democratic thralls roll over and show their bellies.

Wasn't there a story from a few hundred years ago about what happens when people don't feel like they're being accurately represented by lawmakers...

Ol' Bern is probably pretty pumped today.

The four people who still remember he's openly backing an ex-merc Nazi for Congress will probably forget all about it now.
