Order of the Friars of St. Francis of Wycombe. Peccavi. All you fascists bound to lose.
Not enough 🙄 emoji in phone for this. There’s video, if you’re a) masochistic and b) still have an account at The Bad Place™️, but no link from me to that garbage.

Every time I put on the hip waders, spray the BS repellant and go slogging through the Q/MAGA swamps, I think I’ve seen it all, and every time I continue to be surprised. Sometimes by the venality, but more often than not it’s just the dumbassery. These people were the Weekly World News audience.

Completely motionless, Midtown Atlanta. Comparing notes? Flirting? Or about to engage in a low-speed, low stakes game of chicken? You decide (I couldn’t).

This never fails to amaze me. Yes, there are Trump voters with no economic literacy nor desire to learn, but there are also plenty like this guy who, because of their work, know exactly how tariffs work and that they are import taxes. www.nbcnews.com/politics/con...

“Who are these hypocrites who stand in judgment of you? And who among them doesn’t have a skeleton or two in *their* closet? Something the judgy tut-tutters might hound them out of public life for? The world’s been denied your gifts too long. You’re Larry fucking Summers, remember?”

Suspect that is a human trait, but especially a Republican one:

I heartily endorse your priorities. Just don’t go on any long walks.

I really wanna snark about this, but I was alive when marketers thought this would be a good idea: youtu.be/bhuwjw6y1AY?...

Hey @ossoff.bsky.social - I live in your state (ATL). Canvassed for you the first time around. I know you're in a tough spot, but I won't be doing that again if you're gonna cave for little-to-nothing in return on the shutdown. When you've lost Matt f***ing Yglesias, you're on the wrong path. Fix it

Yeah. Also this is utter bullshit. Not the part about people dying over hurt feelings, that’s pretty much true. But the bit about “constructive conversations across divides.” Seriously? With Nazis? No. Not because we just shouldn’t do that, but because the Nazis themselves aren’t interested in them.

OK. But if you click through to the linked sources in that article - Michigan public radio - wdet.org/2024/11/13/b... - you see this. I didn't see anyone saying Muslims/Palestinians in Dearborn voted for Trump. Jill Stein got 18% of the vote. Pretty sure most of those voters know what Trump is.

And yet you still will not call this what it is, @wsj.com — naked corruption? www.wsj.com/finance/curr...

From the GOP “it’s not real (or can be ignored/mocked) until it affects me or my loved ones” school of selfish thought(lessness) www.washingtonpost.com/health/2025/...

OK, but here’s my question, @washingtonpost.com - is it true? Did the US actually kill 6 drug smugglers? Or are they just fisherman like the first bombed boat was? If they were smugglers, what are the ramifications of Trump just deciding he can unilaterally bomb them? You know…journalism?

Today was Pride here in Atlanta. I doubt anyone (including me) knew/remembered this was the anniversary of Matthew’s murder. There were no memorials I saw, only joy and celebration. Obviously I didn’t know him, but I like to think he would have considered this a victory of sorts.

I would like to extend my gratitude to Jon Chait for not even making me wait until the first paragraph or two before being able to determine this piece is not worth reading.

Posted at top-left position on YouTube's "Top News" 1 hour ago, already 29K views, probably because of the placement.

Dear FSM, they are really all-in on Gavin "Patrick Bateman" Newsome being the standard-bearer as opposed to someone (anyone!) who's not a performative asswipe.
