me, straining against my straitjacket: HE’S REALIZING IN REAL TIME THAT THE VIDEO HIS AIDES ALREADY SHOWED HIM WAS AN AI FAKE
This is quite a sequence:

—Trump asks aide for video of ICE shooting to convince NYT interviewers that driver tried to "run over" agent

—They watch together

—Interviewers note it shows nothing of the sort

—Trump says "well . . . it's a terrible scene"

"If you want to know who took all of your money, it's the people who have all of the money."
New numbers show US productivity up big in both Q2 and Q3 of 2025 (4.9% Q3, 4.1% Q2). But inflation-adjusted hourly compensation DOWN for workers in both quarters (-0.2% Q3, -0.5% Q2).

Put that together, and it explains the record $4 trillion in corp profits for Q3.

K economy, indeed.

Potato-sausage soup for dinner. A tried and true recipe that satisfies all of the mouths in my family for just a few dollars in ingredients.

More of a stew than a soup. My preference would be more veggies and more liquid, but I know better than to mess with a meal that the whole clan enjoys.

"we deserve good things and we don't have to settle" is my nomination for as the 2026/2028 counter programming to MAGA.
Our first ad of 2026! Because politics stuck in 2006 won't meet the moment.

It's time to stand up to ICE, white supremacists, and the billionaire oligarchy.

Reminder that Rand Paul is such a festering asshole that his own neighbor was so sick of Rand's shit (over a long-running lawn care dispute) that the neighbor beat the piss out of him.

This man, this malignant tumor of a human being, is better on foreign policy than 90% of Dems.
Rand Paul being better on foreign policy than 90% of Democrats really sucks, especially when you consider he's probably the most annoying dude in the senate, save for Ted Cruz

"If you want to know who took all of your money, it's the people with all of the money."

I keep thinking about this post and how it's one of the best, most succinct messages Democrats could use in 2026 campaigns.
If you want to know who took all of your money, it's the people with all of the money. Famously, we know that's people working in child care.

This whole thread is eye-opening. I hadn't realized what a filthy, unhinged cesspool that Twitter/Grok had become.

Fellow parents, don't post pics of your kids. Don't let your minor children have social media accounts and discourage them from ever picking up this special horrible addiction we have.

I do think we should talk more about contemporary folklore rather than constantly rehashing old dead folklore mainly about monsters

🐋 Moby Dick, chapter 9 🐋

Because Ishmael doesn't give any commentary on the preacher's sermon, I'm taking his actions in the following chapter as his reaction to what he heard in church.

To me, the Jonah story just illustrates the deeper truth that Mapple is trying to convey.

Melville is messing with us, right?

"Father Mapple enjoyed such a wide reputation... that I could not suspect him of courting notoriety by any mere tricks... No, thought I, there must be some sober reason for this thing; furthermore, it must symbolize something unseen."
