Pinned
This just seems like the right thing to keep pinned to my profile.
I never workshop any of my dumb posts. That’s the Elliot Blake™️ social media guarantee.
i'm generally pretty live and let live about social media as long as no one is actively being harmed, but i am never gonna be able to take "collectively workshopped and artisanally-crafted shitposting for cloutmaxing purposes" seriously, i'm sorry

Even if this were not explicitly prohibited by the United States Constitution, it means we kidnapped Venezuela's President and are now extorting money with the threat of future harm.

If Trump is really stealing spending power from Congress then it would be insanity for Democrats to vote to fund the government later this month. Shut it down until the president stops wiping his ass with the Constitution.

White supremacists successfully rewrote history after the Civil War, so much so that today people deny what the slave states had proudly proclaimed back then: it was about slavery. And now this group is rewriting history today. They are lying. They are liars. They are liars.

Locked my old Twitter account in November 2023 and nuked it a year later. Haven’t missed it for even a moment, you won’t either.
Just nuked my Xitter account. I wasn’t using it and I’m sure never going back there.

This is the kind of thing that the Founders explicitly designed our constitution to prevent; a president who has seized wealth for his own benefit without any intervention from Congress, which in our system is supposed to be the holder of the power of the purse.

I say we nuke Grok from orbit. It’s the only way to be sure.

“It will be controlled by me, because it’s going into one of my personal offshore accounts!”
Trump: “I am pleased to announce that the Interim Authorities in Venezuela will be turning over between 30 and 50 MILLION Barrels of High Quality, Sanctioned Oil, to the United States of America. This Oil will be sold at its Market Price, and that money will be controlled by me, as President”

Maybe this is a bad idea, but perhaps what’s needed here is a NATO presence made up of enough troops and ships from European member states to make him and Miller think twice, but really to force Congress to rein in our rogue president.
Greenland is happening. Not a joke, not trolling, not a distraction. He has already made up his mind and nobody who matters in the inner circle will try to talk him out of it. Some of them want it precisely because it will destroy NATO. There are no adults in the room. They really mean to do it.

It used to be enough to have allies that you could count on team up with to deter adversaries, but our stupid president wants to be Putin and thinks he’s an ally, and thinks our actual allies, like NATO partner Denmark, are adversaries. Tired of his bizarro-world bullshit.

I had a weird two-page story in Negative Burn issue 43 in the ‘90’s. I still can’t get over that my name is on a comic book cover alongside Brian Bolland. And now Negative Burn is back! (Without me, but with some comic book greats like @jmdematteis.bsky.social and @ronmarz.bsky.social.)

More bullshit and lies from the liars occupying the White House.
According to the White House, this is the "true" timeline of January 6th.

Don't let this Jan 6th point get lost:

Jack Smith testified to Congress he had "proof beyond a reasonable doubt that President Trump engaged in a criminal scheme to overturn the results of the 2020 election."

In other words, he could prove in court that Trump attempted a coup.

trump did january 6th. republicans did january 6th. violent traitors did january 6th. they stormed the capitol, destroyed the building and threatened to kill members of congress. ashli babbitt was a violent insurrectionist. the capitol police protected people. these are truths we need to repeat.
January 6, 2026 at 7:30 PM
Trump and his whole administration are liars. We know what we saw on January 6, 2021, and no attempt to rewrite the history or cast what happened as something other than it was—a violent insurrection of Trump supporters storming the Capitol on his behalf—will change it. Go fuck yourself, Don.

Five years ago today. That the person most responsible for fomenting this insurrection isn’t in jail and instead was returned to the Oval Office is one of the eternal shames of this country.
I've watched thousands of videos from the Jan. 6 riot as part of NPR's reporting and archive project on that day.

Here are some of the lesser known videos that have really stuck with me.

The “intellectual” praised by and influential upon JD Vance and a whole lot of tech billionaires is an unrepentant Nazi. That Vance and friends don’t have the sense to completely repudiate a shun-worthy antisemitic, racist, eugenicist fucker like Yarvin is dangerous and reveals they agree with him.
Curtis Yarvin has written a very long screed in defense of his post in which he said, “Hitler spoke the truth.”

A sampling of select portions is below and includes, in reference to Jewish people, the words:

“The only way to tell is the name and the nose.”

There’s nonalcoholic Shiner Bock now. This was my favorite beer before I gave up alcohol, so I am, perhaps, unreasonably excited about this. I just hope I can get it in L.A.

Regifting Trump the Nobel peace prize he didn’t win isn’t going to get Machado or Venezuela anything.
Hannity: Did you at any point offered to give him the Nobel peace prize?

Machado: It hasn’t happened yet. We want to give it to him. Share it with him.

Trumpian imperialism in action: kidnap the head of the regime, leaving the rest of it in place so as to access the oil reserves for the US companies. Then realize the oil is actually quite expensive to extract, so go ahead and SUBSIDIZE the oil companies. Perfect.

Well, Greenland has been part of the Kingdom of Denmark since 1814, so there’s that. And now this ghoul—this goon—is implying that power is the right by which the U.S. will assert control over Greenland. I am not digging this new Trumpian imperialism.
TAPPER: Can you rule out the US is going to take Greenland by force?

MILLER: Greenland should be part of the US. By what right does Denmark assert control over Greenland? The US is the power of NATO

T: So force is on the table?

M: Nobody is gonna fight the US militarily over future of Greenland

Shut Grok down and nuke it from orbit. It’s the only way. Then put Musk in jail for his many crimes against humanity.
If the biggest donor to the DCCC/DNC ran a website where you could use AI to take women's clothes off I feel like there'd be a demand for Dems to give the money back.
