Why am I awake, you didn’t ask?
Because *somebody* had a Stage 5 Clinger in her pantaloons and decided to scream about it while booty scootin’ across the bathmat at Lord Jesus, Make It Stop o’Clock.
Yes, Pippin. The wet washcloth was, in fact, quite necessary.

I can’t decide whether nobody should tell him, or how much money I’d pay to be a fly on the wall when they do.

He might have been aiming for a Keith Richards vibe with this, but he landed on “rabid sewer rat.”

He literally says in this clip that ICE will keep in Minnesota “quick reaction forces” — a military term — to go after “agitators.” Remember that those on the ground in MPLS have spent more than a week trying to tell everyone that Trump’s prior “deescalation” was a ruse and ICE is still operational
Homan: "Operation Metro Surge is ending. In the next week, we're going to deploy the officers here on detail back to their home stations or to other areas of the country where they're needed."

What kind of Faustian bargain did @governorwalz.mn.gov make with Tom Homan to (allegedly) get ICE to promise to leave Minnesota?
And where are all those ICE agents headed now instead?

I sometimes catch myself writing like that, get self-conscious about it, and then say to myself, “That was only 47 words and one em dash. Faulkner had longer sneezes, for Pete’s sake. It’s fine.”

Bondi crashes out over Epstein: "The Dow is over 50,000 dollars! I don't know why you're laughing. You're a great stock trader as I hear, Raskin. The Dow is over 50,000 right now. The S&P at almost 7,000, and the Nasdaq smashing records. That's what we should be talking about."

There is absolutely no joy in saying “we told you so,” but we did, and we were right.
Erasing and persecuting trans folks was the beginning step, not the end game. No amount of palatability or respectability politics ever appeases fascism for long.

“This is a deliberate act of erasure . . . The Pride Flag is history, resistance, and Pride born at Stonewall itself. Taking it down does not diminish our community. It exposes an administration afraid of visibility and truth."

All of our labels have some amount of historical blood on them. If queer folks self-censored every descriptive term for ourselves that others have ever used as an insult or slur against us, we’d have no vocabulary to express our inner lives at all.

The same people who listen to Italian and German opera and who are willing to condemn the Pope himself in their pursuit of Latin-only Catholic Mass have their knickers in a twist about a pop music artist who performs in Spanish.

In the Guardian’s style book, “revealed” is evidently a synonym for “established fact that has been known for several years and previously covered by multiple journalists, writers, and media outlets.”

Mine own was to do the “trombone slide arm jerk of pure horror,” wherein I quickly yank the phone to arm’s length and back, raise my glasses, squint hard, gasp, and mumble aloud, “Oh. Oh, no. Oh, honey, no. That ain’t right.”
