Your hand opens and closes, opens and closes. If it were always a fist or always stretched open, you would be paralyzed. Your deepest presence is in every small contracting and expanding, the two as beautifully balanced and coordinated as birds' wings
Pinned
Everything looks burned up, I'm too scared to look around
Don't feel like going on, but come on, make a joyful sound
It’s always great when our politicians sound like Bill the Butcher -_-
Please add "puppy killers" to your proposed travel ban.

WE DON'T WANT THEM. NOT ONE.

And I’m not gonna sit here and pretend that Tucker Carlson hasn’t spent years calling my people animals. He doesn’t believe in ‘the individual’. Otherwise he wouldn’t be demonising trans people.

Again, this is not complicated.

I defy you to find me a more useless venal and cowardly group of people than the modern Democratic Party. The fact that this is the raft we all have to cling to as this country descends into fascism is fucking galling. Schumer doesn't need to be primaried he needs to be pilloried.

All hope drawn from politicians is ultimately false hope. The only true hope in this world is the hope we create together

Calling the Democrats “cowards” suggests that they're scared to do what's right when they show no fervent interest in being an opposition. They're largely colluders, not cowards. Many want their base to think they're cowards to maintain investment in the idea that they can be pushed to do better.

CHARLIE BROWN: The deal agreed upon today contains major concessions. Lucy, for example, has agreed to give me two attempts at kicking the football tomorrow. But to me? What matters most is that I can at last continue with my important work on the pitcher's mound

I'm not super familiar with the rules of American football ( @jamesstout.bsky.social is our Sports Correspondent) but I'm getting the impression that it's possible for the loser of a football game to be the president of the United States, which is interesting.

...at some point around the middle they came for John Bolton, and I did not speak out, because it kinda seemed like that dude belongs in prison.

Please be conscious if you protest this weekend that there are feds at the protest. They look like you and they sound like you, not like Steve Buscemi in that one clip with the skateboard. Thinking you can spot them is self delusion. Nobody you haven’t met needs to know your last name.

what's savvy about R's making such a stink about Stephen King saying "Charlie Kirk said gays should be stoned to death" is now all your google search results are King apologizing instead of the time Kirk definitely did say that

my father-in-law is a “I know a guy” Guy. sadly all the old Guys are aging out of the Guy Economy. Guys are fundamentally incompatible with Hustle Culture because it’s not about “winning” a deal, it’s about collecting favors and goodwill in a mutually-beneficial cycle. protect your local Guy Economy

Freakier Friday? Terrible title. The same thing happened to them once before, which makes this Friday inherently less freaky than the first one

I’m gonna be honest: if I saw Char Aznable in person, I would immediately hit him with a shovel. No question, no hesitation. And if I couldn’t find a shovel, I would try to find another swingable heavy object that would work. I hope you all understand.
