Jeffrey Epstein advised Steve Bannon that the lawyers representing Brett Kavanaugh in his confirmation hearing should accuse Christine Blasey Ford of being on medications that cause false memories or memory loss.

turns out the emails we should have been reading in 2016 were from the NYT

Pizzagate: If you replace the word “hot dog” with “little boy” and “pizza party” with “child sex orgy,” you will see the lengths these elites go to cover up their crimes.

Real elite emails: Send me nude pictures of those 8th graders we abused last weekend post-haste! I am the Ambassador to Turkey.

Today's Epstein news reminds me that in 1994 the Washington Post called for an independent counsel investigation of Whitewater "even though -- and this should be stressed -- there has been no credible charge in this case that either the president or Mrs. Clinton did anything wrong."

The thing about Mamdani is that he’s a talented politician but not otherworldly or one in a billion, he’s just a competent guy with popular ideas who ran against an entitled piece of shit and to me it’s a lot more optimistic to imagine 1000 campaigns like his than to view him as a unique phenomenon

#StarTrekDS9 "Up Close"

Gul Dukat arrives with a documentary crew to chronicle his time on Bajor. Miles and Julian are trapped in a malfunctioning holosuite. To escape, they must re-enact Waterloo. Not the battle, the ABBA song. Vorta: Stanley Tucci.

Tapping the XKCD sign again to explain that no, I won't be seeing an aurora tonight. Or at least I really hope not. That would be bad. :)

Belted Kingfisher, my nemesis bird.
Up until this afternoon I struggled to get within 100 yards of one of these shy birds.

Look, the film opens in Heaven with James Bond stealing an angel's wings after strangling the angel with harp strings, then he throws a halo at the pearly gates to keep them from closing all the way, he flies out sideways and finds himself back on Earth reincarnated into a royal corgi.

It's easy!

I hate this "phones" conversation regarding queer people and queer kids because the bottom line is, cishet society KNOWS. Right-wingers KNOW that the internet is how queer people connect to each other---hell, that marginalized people period use it to organize and educate.

That's why they hate it.

the only thing democrats should be saying today is “the entire republican party is engaged in a coverup of the most notorious child sex trafficking ring in world history”

“The President sent his lawyer to negotiate a settlement with a convicted sex trafficker to provide cushy accommodation in exchange for her silence on his participation in said sex trafficking” is a cold description of the facts of an insane story that the media doesn’t find worthy of scrutiny

Never before in living memory has it been as urgent for America to have a strong opposition party. Which is why it’s so important for Democrats to take the steps I lay out in this video.

And if there are Democrats who won’t — we need to replace them with those who will.

What did you think of Corman's Frankenstein Unbound?
I was surprised how faithful the baseline story was to the book. Especially for a Roger Corman movie that includes a robot car.
I know there's Discourse but let me remind you which Frankenstein adaptation is truly the best

I have been VERY concerned about this ever since that crackpot was appointed to head the HHS. Millions of Americans depend on SSRIs for their mental health, and these assholes may just decide they're bad because, well, they're crackpot assholes. RFK is a severe threat to public health.
First they came for reproductive rights.
Then they came for vaccines.
Now they’re coming for mental health.

There is zero evidence SSRIs cause mass violence.

You know what does? Guns — and the fact that anyone can access weapons that kill hundreds in seconds.
