I’ve seen a million faces and I’ve rocked like, five or six of them. he/him. Please clap.
For every “like, ever,” “she’s laughing up at us from hell” and “he looks up grinnin’ like a devil!” we get one of these.
"The old Taylor can't come to the phone right now," "Hey kids spelling is fun," "THIS. SICK. BEAT." Is this your Queen of Bridges?

MST3K is very much like the monster or the killer or the killer monster that we see so often in their movies: we can't count on it being gone right away!
No idea when or how the next incarnation will come about, but it's only a matter of time.
Also, HELL YES, TEAM EMILY!

I loved this show but this makes no fucking sense. Lyonne just kills it in this role.

Being excellent at math is knowing *how* to build the Torment Nexus. Learning to interact with other people is knowing why you *shouldn’t* build the Torment Nexus.
I think the belief by the powerful that "people will put up with many things if you are excellent at math" is incredibly revealing in terms of understanding How We Got Here

Unlike you, I can read and that’s why I know what the constitution says.
Trump on Ilhan Omar: "I look at somebody who comes from Somalia...and she comes in and tells us how to run our country. 'The Constitution says this, the Constitution says that.' The whole thing is crazy."

Debuting on this day in 1969, fun facts about the earliest episodes of #SesameStreet:
- Oscar the Grouch was orange instead of green
- Gordon was played by nine different men, simultaneously
- Mr. Hooper was still alive, not yet embalmed and on display outside his store.

Insurers: “Oh, you’ve had COVID? Sorry.”
Trump: "I want the money to go into an account for people where they buy their own health insurance. It's so good. The insurance will be better. It'll cost less. Everybody is gonna be happy. They're gonna feel like entrepreneurs. They're actually able to go out & negotiate their own insurance"

I think this an important point. The shutdown was hurting millions of people. In a normal political world, the party in power would first, not want that, and second, care about being blamed for it, which is leverage for negotiation. Neither applies here.
It's also virtually certain that Dem's efforts to restore ACA subsidies were not going to work. They had no leverage to negotiate because the opposite side doesn't care how much or how long Americans in either group were hurting.

So the idea is the “Senate Democrats caved” deal is because the House then also must convene to vote on it, and they won’t pass it. (If Johnson even bothers to put the House in session, since he then has to swear in Grijalva.)
Maybe they’re smarter than we think.

Folks, we need to have a little Civics #101 chat, because apparently the media no longer seems fit to explain to you whats happening.
So quick review:
The House passed a clean CR.
The senate has not passed anything.

The Rs lost to me four times in six years. That should've been a hint. But apparently it wasn't, so the voters made their thoughts crystal clear tonight.

My folks are selling their house and I found it on Zillow and it's WILD to see a place I lived for 20+ years and still visit often in such ridiculous lighting. Also the grass was never that green.

It's up to you, New York. You want me to leave New York?! Vote for Mamdani. I will be voting for Andrew Cuomo, a great man who has principles and stands for something, which is that women exist for his pleasure. (I will be voting absentee, as I am currently at my vacation home on Naboo.)
