My AMAZING sister wrote a Doctor Who book!!! I’m very looking forward to reading…and you should too!!😊
My book Where We Stand, Where We fall is now up for pre-order. It's about the politics of Doctor Who, the themes the show keeps returning to over sixty years.

I mentioned this last week, but now there's a proper post about it, with a 30% discount code from the publisher: lmmyles.com/2025/11/26/b...

i think a lot of what's wrong with american politics and media comes down to liberals not realizing that eric schmitt is smarter than george stephanopoulos here and that is not a joke.

if you let a man lie and BS like this to your face, you are being outsmarted; hes getting something and you arent.
STEPHANOPOULOS: Do you support the pardon of the former Honduran president?

SCHMITT: I'm not familiar w/ the facts or circumstances

S: What do you mean you're not familiar? It's been front page news

SCHMITT: You spew Democrat talking points every single week, which is why your ratings are so bad

This is utter madness. Kafka himself would not have dared depict such a bizarre inversion of sense and decency.
There is no sight that more efficiently puts the lie to immigration “court” than the common sight of children “representing themselves.” Children too small to climb into the chair, children in pajamas who don’t know where they are, children not yet old enough to speak.

Just another reminder that when Palantir started as a means of helping cops find sex workers to harass, deceive, and rape, "progressives" clapped like trained seals because the Palantir marketing department barfed the phrase "sex trafficking" into their stupid faces.
“The records show that Palantir is actively working on the technical infrastructure underpinning the Trump administration’s mass deportation efforts which could soon impact U.S. citizens.“
Palantir will be used to identify domestic Trump critics soon enough.

Just fyi congress approved tomahawk missles to be sent to Ukraine. The president has stopped them from being sent so far. Is there any wonder much of the world calls him Putins puppet?

If everything were on the up and up, the Republican-led Congress would be passing budgets, overseeing agencies, and serving constituents, not taking long breaks.

Checks on the president, SCOTUS, and the cabinet would actually exist.

The Republican Party is trash and the move toward authoritarianism isn’t theoretical anymore. You can see it unfolding as I type.

You’re absolutely right, Aardam. The GOP has basically delivered the country to Putin, and U.S. allies know it. Trust is gone. If the U.S. keeps the reserve currency, it’ll be by pure luck, not competence.

The reason for fatalism is the entire world now knows we are always going to be one election cycle from insanity. They will never trust us to honor our commitments again, and if we manage to hold on to the worlds reserve currency, we will have dodged a mortal bullet.
Republicans are the worst trash.

I've been yelling about this & feel no one is listening. U.S. border allow themselves to operate up to 100 miles (160km) from any intl boundaries (they consider airports to count). It's supposed to be only on the U.S. side but they're changing the rules & won't stop if we don't make a stand.
