When asked if there was anything "incriminating" in Epstein's emails, Trump pointed a finger in a female reporter's face and snapped. 'Quiet. Quiet, Piggy.'

bush v gore is the hinge upon which basically everything awful from the last quarter century swings on
i don't think that bush v. gore is the *worst* ruling in the history of the supreme court, but i do think it is the most openly *corrupt* ruling in its history. a real disgrace.

If you're in Hartford, I recommend Story and Soil on Capitol Ave., they have great coffee and are queer friendly and cool
Lots of great non-Starbucks options for your coffee! Pay them a visit until the greedy Starbucks owners decide to treat their workers with dignity.
As of this morning, Starbucks workers across the country are officially ON STRIKE. And we're prepared for this to become the biggest and longest ULP strike in Starbucks history.
Say #NoContractNoCoffee with us: DON'T BUY STARBUCKS for the duration of our open-ended ULP strike! $SBUX

Me watching MTG and Trump fight:
It's like a national trauma response
It just feels like everything is being flattened. Rape, genocide, wildfires, etc etc is all just fodder for internet discourse rather than turning points that lead to… something, anything better or different.
It’s so true. It’s actually horrifying to see the memes and jokes about this.

10 Nov 2025 -- Supreme Court turns down right-wing appeal to re-visit gay marriage decision Obergefell v Hodges, and potentially carve out exceptions for (mainly Christian conservative) anti-marriage officials. @rikiwilchins.bsky.social
Supreme Court won’t hear challenge to landmark gay marriage ruling
The announcement indicates there is not an appetite among the high court’s conservative majority to revisit one of the court’s most significant decisions in recent years.
