Trump's utter contempt for the parasitical sycophants who surround him is one bleak spark of joy in this hideous era. These people pumped $150 million into his memecoin and he gave them a fifteen minute speech and one hastily shat plate of Cavan funeral food.
200 people spent millions on Trump’s memecoin and were rewarded with this dinner

The worst kind of betrayal.
Betrayal by family. Betrayal by friends.

Both Texas and Georgia are destroying evidence of all maternal mortality, blocking proof that women are dying from abortion bans.
This story has a lot more going on than you think. Especially since Republicans are lying about the public cases.

Republicans don't care if women die from abortion bans — but they don't want you to know about it
Women will keep dying, but the GOP is working hard to destroy the evidence

@halfwayupbooks.bsky.social is this something that you could order in for me? I don't see it available anywhere in Ireland?
I got this for the 9 yr old this weekend, and it’s the most magical, joyful thing I’ve read in a long time. Just fantastic.
The 9 yr old likes it, too.
