"Malort advent calendar" is already such an unhinged concept but every little window just having Malort in it really pushes it over the edge into something transcendently funny

PORN IS ART, PORN IS GOOD, PEOPLE MAKING PORN IS A SIGN OF A HEALTHY SOCIETY
There has been a noticeable reticence in left and liberal circles to voice full-throated support for pornography, even as it's become increasingly clear what the open end goals of the censorship movement are
In a lot of ways other leftists chose this path folks. They shrugged and didn’t care when Patreon banned a ton of hypnosis and TF creators, or when YouTube started their ASMR crackdown. Now it’s coming for queer porn creators, more and more. Who will stand up?

Being a Padres fan can really, really, really suck.

based on the epstein emails released today i am Tapping The Sign
thinking about it now: i've said it before but the argument gets more reasonable by the day that joe biden should be (and will be) historically viewed similarly to buchanan for his complete inability to respond appropriately to trump during his term. he had one job and he fucked it up.

If you haven’t watched Halt and Catch Fire, you need to log off and fix that immediately.
for our "Texas Canon" series, I wrote about Halt and Catch Fire, the underrated AMC show about the '80s Dallas tech boom, and how it reminds us of why we were optimistic about tech in the first place: www.chron.com/culture/arti...
One of TV's most underrated shows gave Texas' tech past its due
Texas rarely gets the prestige treatment. One AMC drama pulled it off.

Another Wednesday, another Amazon/Comixology release fuckup. No Power Fantasy and no DIE: Loaded. @imagecomics.com please get on @neonichiban.bsky.social so @kierongillen.bsky.social can upset me on a platform that actually cares about comics.

Fuck Arte Moreno
Mike Trout is a generational MLB talent, a player who should have been plastered on Times Square billboards and cereal boxes.

But he's faded from the sport’s consciousness.

How?

Zohran Mamdani polled +40% on men under 30. So we wasted all that time on all those think pieces about how we need a Joe Rogan for the left, when what we actually needed were *policies* for the left.

This to me is the game. I don’t care if Schumer doesn’t like Mamdani, but for him to stand silently by while sex pest Cuomo leans into gutter racism and Islamophobia while accepting endorsements from Trump, Musk and Miller is outrageous from the Senate Minority Leader.
Schumer had a chance to repudiate the gutter racism and Islamophobia of Cuomo's campaign and he just fucking didn't. And that is disqualifying. He should be ashamed and we the voters should make sure he feels that shame.
Reporter: Today is election day in New York City. Did you vote for Mamdani or Cuomo?

Schumer: Look, I voted. And I look forward to working with the next mayor to help New York City.

All day, many of you have been asking for a Cheney obituary from me. Get ready:
His Works Completed, Dick Cheney, Mass Murderer of Iraqis and American Democracy, Dies
As much as the Trumpists claim to disavow the War on Terror, they walk a path paved by the most powerful vice president in U.S. history.

"You gotta work every day for it." Goddamn, this dude knows what's up.
A few days after the presidential election one year ago, we went to Fordham Road in the Bronx.

It was a little different last week.
