It just occurred to me that 47 will once again have unfettered access to all our Intel, including what goes back and forth to 5 eyes.
Omg. Our idiot electorate just put the entire Western world in Putin's lap.

Have you reached the point where literally anything is better than marinating in the constant horrors of current existence by doomscrolling through bad news all day?
Good news! Taking a few minutes to do some dishes, pick up some clutter, or put away laundry qualifies as literally anything!

Guess we should have expected this re: Guilfoyle or however you spell her name. This is more embarrassing than having Abbott as governor, at least the latter is consistent.

They did right up until it became politically unpalatable, Dec 7th 1941.
But it’s imp to know that without Pearl Harbor there was a growing American fascist movement that might have ended up in power if Japan hadn’t attacked us.
And they called themselves America First

I've been watching them since before last year's clutch didn't hatch. They are fascinating. So glad they are celebrities.

I asked my friend, the activist,
for her thoughts
on the president saying
“no masks,”
and with a laugh
my friend, the activist, replied
that she thinks his statement
will probably lead
to more people wearing masks.

Yeah. This is why EVERYONE should've stopped reading their bullshit long ago.
They did this LITERALLY to drum up business by being able to print sensational stories about Trumpian chaos.
Fuck them all the way to hell and back.

On reading this, it occurs to me that Gaiman could have had an endless supply of WILLING partners for whatever his heart desired, no matter how depraved.
Which means what he really desired was UNWILLING partners.
Which means Neil Gaiman is a rapist.
Period.

I’m not sure what was worse: that Merrick Garland couldn’t bring himself to prosecute Trump on his own and felt he had to bring in a special counsel as cover, or that he waited so long to do it that Smith never got Trump inside a courtroom.
History won’t be forgiving to Garland.
