Rant: Why do manufacturers even make toilet seats that don't close softly? It's like making a smartphone with a rotary dial. No. We've moved on. It's over.

Great piece. He summed it up well. I can't imagine the thoughts going through their heads as they both rambled on. Things like, "This lunatic is our commander-in-chief?" and "this charlatan National Guard captain is calling us fat and weak?" Such a disgrace.

This jumped out at me from the article:
Quote from article in the Atlantic by Tom Nichols that reads: Likewise, in Trump’s first term, the president was surrounded by people who ensured that some of his nuttiest—and most dangerous—ideas were derailed before they could reach the military. Today, senior U.S. officers have to wonder who will shield them from the impulses of the person they just saw onstage. What are officers to make of Trump’s accusation that other nations, only a year ago, supposedly called America “a dead country”? (After all, these men and women were leading troops last year.) How are they supposed to react when Trump slips the surly bonds of truth, insults their former commanders in chief, and talks about his close relationship with the Kremlin?

HA!! Only about 3 of these people look like collegians. Also, those signs are about as poorly crafted as their arguments. And that's being generous.

Also who is the guy filming her? What's his deal with the phone and flak jacket? Is that for later identification of someone to target?

Kim Davis has been married 4 fucking times. Twice to the same guy. Her current husband was also her second. She had twins with her 3rd husband while she was still with her first husband. This bitch doesn't know what "sanctity of marriage" even means. She's confusing "sanctity" with "frequency".
Wikipedia entry that states: Davis has been married four times to three husbands. The first three marriages ended in divorce in 1994, 2006, and 2008. Davis has two daughters from her first marriage and twins, a son and another daughter, who were born five months after her divorce from her first husband. Her third husband is the biological father of the twins, the children being conceived while Davis was still married to her first husband. The twins were adopted by Davis's current husband, Joe Davis, who was also her second husband; the couple initially divorced in 2006 but later remarried. Joe Davis has also stated his support for her stance against same-sex marriage.

Remember how pissed conservatives were about Obama wearing a tan suit? It's "unpresidential", they said. Apparently, being a pedo and rapist is just fine, though.

@attorneynora.bsky.social said it so well and we should all be VERY pissed off about this. American freedoms belong to ALL Americans, not just MAGA morons.
Quote from Nora Benavidez, Senior Counsel and Director of Digital Justice and Civil Rights, July 22, 2025 that reads: “...this country has turned its back on core American principles, the principles our founders believed essential to prevent consolidation and abuse of power by a small few. Those founding fathers knew that freedom of the press and our freedom to speak, listen, think, and assemble would be essential bulwarks against overreach of government power. So if the exercise of those rights is now penalized simply because those in power dislike the message or the messenger, that means our basic freedoms are not free: they have become privileges, doled out for good behavior if those in power allow it.”

And this was in 1952....
Quote from Harry S Truman: "Socialism is a scare word they have hurled at every advance the people have made in the last 20 years. Socialism is what they called public power. Socialism is what they called social security. Socialism is what they called farm price supports. Socialism is what they called bank deposit insurance. Socialism is what they called the growth of free and independent labor organizations. Socialism is their name for almost anything that helps all the people."

I reached out. I did add my own color to the intro though.... not that it will help with the snakes representing Texas and my district but I thought maybe I would appeal to their selfish interests.
Text in an image that reads: Everybody knows someone impacted by Alzheimer's or dementia. You and I both will probably suffer from this in our lives but perhaps we don't have to. And even if you're willing to let us both suffer, then perhaps this economic argument will convince you. It would probably cost FAR less to cure than it will to treat this over the next couple of decades so…

Reposting something shared by @hollowoak.bsky.social that I found interesting. This is exactly what I think and it's articulated in a way that anyone can understand - even stupid people who voted for the Fake Tan Führer. If you disagree with this, it's because you're wrong. 😉

Look, I hate her more than many things, but that photo is disingenuous. Is it sad, yes? Do I hate her less, no. But this seems more like reality. And if you think I'm defending her, you're wrong. I'm pointing out that there is the truth and what others want us to believe is the truth. Do homework.

That guy will NEVER be cool. Money can't buy coolness and that "I did this myself" haircut certainly isn't helping.

And you know who else had a haircut like that?

Yep, and the little kid there eyeballing him is just the chef's kiss to this whole charade. Tangerine Palpatine is the Manchurian candidate.

Factoid: When young Seamus O'Grimacey arrived on Ellis Island back in 1904, his name was changed to Sam Grimace, to mask his heritage during an unfavorable time for Irish immigrants. After 4 decorated seasons playing right tackle for Notre Dame, he would forever be known by his last name — Grimace.

The eyes tell the story. He's crazy AF. And they're going to put him in charge of the FBI because of course they will.

Can't see him without thinking of Krazee-Eyez Killa.

"suggested"? More like "outrageously and falsely claimed" as proven by your own article. Do better @reuters.com
Reuters article clipping that reads: Trump suggested that efforts to boost diversity at the FAA could have been a cause in the crash and harshly criticized Pete Buttigieg, who headed the Transportation Department under President Joe Biden, saying "he's a disaster... He's run it right into the ground with his diversity." Former aides to Buttigieg say the diversity policy cited by Trump had been a long-standing policy and was in effect during Trump's first term. Buttigieg could not immediately be reached for comment.
