Talarico speaking on Rogan: I'm a Christian, and I think there is no more dangerous form of government than theocracy—because the only thing worse than a tyrant is a tyrant who thinks they’re on a mission from God.

My favorite #Houston lore will forever be 1980’s Mack selling furniture out of a tent because he needed a way to launder the money he spent dealing blow.
"Together, we can take back Harris County!"
Mattress Mack wants to make Harris County great again

Aw, the part where Triple H talked about Chyna. I’m glad he recognized her role in his career.
(Now get her into the HOF on her own.)

What's a line from #MST3K that's in your personal lexicon. I have two:
I think I've done my part for the Spix's Macaw (said when someone asks you do something but you're tired)
You can pet that old Llama. Ain't no law says you cain't (when you don't care enough to stop someone from doing dumb)

Used this analogy when explaining to the teen, but to point out that in the end, when the hyenas realize Scar has destroyed everything, they turn on him. Simba doesn't kill him; his own underlings tear him apart.
Our government feels like when Scar took over after Mufasa died. Just a bunch of ecological damage and hyenas running around this mf.

Well it appears I have plans today.
I accidentally discovered that there is a weird magnetic spot on my laptop that will make a paperclip stand up, so I had to add googly eyes and make my own personal Clippy

Delighted to be spending my morning with @corybooker.com. Also, anyone who thinks a vegan diet is deficient, this man has been on his feet speaking for 12+ plus hours.
I’m heading to the Senate floor because Donald Trump and Elon Musk have shown a complete disregard for the rule of law, the Constitution, and the needs of the American people. You can tune in on CSPAN, YouTube, X, and Facebook.

For those new to the party, Greg Abbott lost the use of his legs when he decided to go jogging after a storm and a tree fell on him. He sued the homeowner and won big.
And then he started to advocate for tort reform.

I was willing to give him a modicum of grace, thinking maybe his vote was an intentional act to protect others up for re-election in vulnerable districts.
Then I saw this and was, “Nah. He’s just awful.”

Why did Trump put “guts” in quotes? Is it because they exist as a hypothetical, in name only?
Pro tip for Democrats: if Trump is congratulating you, you fucked up.

Observation: Al Green and Jasmine Crockett, two of the Trump administration’s most vocal critics and beacons of light for those of us horrified by all that’s happening, are both Democrats - from *Texas.*
