I see a lot of cars with a “Kill your local pedo” sticker next to “Trump 2024” stickers.

Should we tell them?

Criticizing US athletes for being “political” is the modern equivalent of criticizing Jesse Owens for embarrassing Hitler. Deal with it.

Everyone should proceed on the assumption that Donald J. Trump is proven to be a child rapist in the Epstein files.

If that assumption were incorrect, Trump would have released all the files by now to prove his innocence.

My Photographic Influences
None bigger than my grandmother, who came to the US in 1938. I hope you’ll read my tribute to her, on what would have been her 100th birthday.

Happy Valentine’s Day to everyone except Kristi Noem and Corey Lewandowski, who are literally and figuratively fucking idiots.

“The threat has been neutralized"

Recent events made me go back and revisit Nena’s 1983 banger. I’d never translated the song from the original German, and it hits WAY harder now.

I so desperately want to write “Pedo Protector” in sidewalk chalk at my neighbor’s house with the “Trump Won” flag display.

So let me get this straight: to cut down on paper waste, they make grocery bags so thin that you have to double-bag them. Yes, I forgot my reusable bag today.

NEW: A page from Bondi's burn book. This is a list of the searches by Rep Jayapal of the unredacted Epstein files. That means the DOJ grabbed her search terms from the computers they set up for members of congress to view the Epstein files to use as ammunition. The photo is from Reuters.
