The craziest thing about James Bond is the idea that if a secret agent whose superpower is sex that they wouldn’t be having sex with men. Bond would almost exclusively having sex with men. Tagging the main bad guy’s lady doesn’t get you close to anything of value for an intelligence agency.

Many of the same white voters who are screaming at Chuck Schumer and angry at the 8 Senators that voted to end the shutdown, are STILL going to have Thanksgiving and Christmas with their MAGA family members.

Are you a crappy contractor, originally from Poland, living in Chicago. Because the only time I’ve seen tacky design like this, it was designed by someone from Katowice born in the 60s. That’s what I see.
The educated liberal big city US folks outraged at Trump's renovation of Lincoln bathroom really need to scroll some Facebook of their less established relatives and friends to see what kind of aesthetic resonates with Trump's target audience.

Nothing like having morning coffee while playing on Bluesky when the whistles start on your block and you have to run outside in your pajamas and flip flops. There in Albany Park again this morning.

Oh Lort! Pray for Dolly. We’re not ready for her to go home yet.
I am sending every positive vibe, every ounce of heart filled love I have right now. Dolly Parton is a national treasure. We need Dolly in this world more than ever. 🩷🩷🦋🦋

This morning, the Trump Administration’s Department of War gave me an ultimatum: call up your troops, or we will. It is absolutely outrageous and un-American to demand a Governor send military troops within our own borders and against our will.
