A turkey named Frederick M @mfrederickm.bsky.social · Sep 18
At any given moment my moods are either 1) nervous looking pangolin or 2) “What are you waiting for, huh?” from I Know What You Did Last Summer.

Call in the troops to solve the commercial real estate crisis in our swanky downtown cores

You can’t make this shit up, folks
The Miracle Mile Shopping Center in Chicago, once considered our Nation’s BEST, now has a more than 28% vacancy factor, and is ready to call it quits unless something is done about the murder and crime, which is prevalent throughout the City. CALL IN THE TROOPS, FAST, BEFORE IT IS TOO LATE! “Just the News”

Oh, so he totally stole the money
The U.S. Supreme Court was given the wrong numbers. The “unwind” in the event of a negative decision on Tariffs, would be, including investments made, to be made, and return of funds, in excess of 3 Trillion Dollars. It would not be possible to ever make up for that kind of a “drubbing.” That would truly become an insurmountable National Security Event, and devastating to the future of our Country - Possibly non-sustainable!

You’re not going to believe this but they bring Boris Karloff back to life

I’m watching The Walking Dead (the Michael Curtis film from the 1930s) and so far Boris plays like… a mild mannered normal dude who is framed for murder.

Im going to say something insane but Boris Karloff had such a sexy voice (when not grunting as Frankenstein).

GORGEOUS
The Moonkiller from Doctor X. Everything is in shades of orange-ish pink and green or greytone. He's in a 1930s scifi lab.

Facebook keeps showing me slop videos of giant floating hammers hitting CGI cars, which I enjoy more than the "I learned this cooking hack from a friend for Italy" and it's like... using slices of American cheese in lasagna or whatever.

I think I'm homesick for CNY because I keep researching different news stories I half-remember from growing up. Love the area even if the people are a bit..... not great most of the time.

Cheryl Hines—who has mostly steered clear of RFK’s antivaxx world—headlined a weekend gala for Children’s Health Defense. At the private party, which I watched from the back of the room, she praised CHD and hawked her book— proceeds which were promised to CHD. www.msnbc.com/news/news-an...
Does Cheryl Hines share husband RFK Jr.’s vaccine views? Now we know the answer.
The actress finally steps out as first lady of the anti-vaccine movement.

I heard Ms Rachel was an integral part of Operation Paperclip (1945-1959).

Ms Rachel says The New York Times asked her if she’s funded by Hamas
Screenshot of a post from Ms Rachel’s Instagram Real Question from The NY Times As you know, a group has suggested, albeit without evidence, that you are accepting money in order to further Hamas's agenda. Is that true? This accusation is not only absurd, it's patently false.

if a Senator cannot compellingly and aggressively call for these bare minimum changes to party leadership—*any* Senator, no matter their name, policies, past accomplishments—then they cannot remain in office. and they should not know a single fucking moment of peace until they’re cast out for good.

The coordinated nature of this—none are facing voters in 2026—means that either Schumer approved it or failed in his job as Senate Majority Leader to stop it.

Dems voting "no" get zero credit until they demand a change in leadership. Schumer out as Leader, Durbin out as Whip.

Minority Whip Katherine Clark puts out a stinging statement on the senate deal. "A GOP budget that spikes health care premiums and everyday costs to fund tax cuts for billionaires is a grave betrayal of everyday Americans. That was true in July. It was true in September. And it remains true today."
MALDEN, MA – Democratic Whip Katherine Clark issued the following statement on the Senate’s budget vote: "A GOP budget that spikes health care premiums and everyday costs to fund tax cuts for billionaires is a grave betrayal of everyday Americans. That was true in July. It was true in September. And it remains true today. “Republicans eliminated the ACA tax credits and slashed $1 trillion from Medicaid, $500 billion from Medicare, and billions from medical research. As a result, Americans are seeing soaring costs – doubling, tripling, and quadrupling families’ premiums. Democrats have called on Republicans to work with us to protect health care and lower costs since March. They’ve refused at every turn. “Let’s be clear: Donald Trump and Republicans in Congress own this health care crisis. They own the pain of every American facing a premium hike. And they own the hopelessness of every parent who can no longer afford health insurance for their family. “House Democrats are not giving up. The American people deserve affordable health care, we will continue to fight back on their behalf.”

Dems should be all over THIS, not caving on a shutdown and healthcare premiums on which the publicly currently clearly blame Trump and the GOP for.

Dems backed Trump into a corner where he’s advocating for starving Americans and hemorrhaging support. If they vote to let him off the hook in exchange for nothing it’s a cataclysmic failure. I know people are in pain but insulating Republicans from political consequences is not the answer.
