Team Pedro. Funny how this article goes from calling Pascal’s words an “attack” on JKR without ever characterizing her incessant unprovoked attacks on trans women the same way. And then it somehow becomes a plug for the upcoming Harry Potter series. The Guardian isn’t usually this shitty.

Devastating.

As a Lithuanian American and a U.S. veteran, I am both proud and disgusted today.

“When I despair, I remember that all through history, the way of truth and love has always won. There have been tyrants and murderers, and for a time they can seem invincible, but in the end, they always fall. Think of it—always.” - Mahatma Gandhi

If you don’t have a favorite former football player, you should.

The wheels are coming off faster than we could have imagined. Anyone who thinks this is good is not worth speaking to. They’re cultists. They’re unfixable. www.huffpost.com/entry/elon-m...

I’ve been avoiding posting anything political since November, because what’s the fucking point? But this renaming of the Gulf of Mexico is so inane. Naming a geographical feature after your own country is as dumb as naming a war after the side you’re on. 1/2

This is the profile pic I’ll have tomorrow. Feel free to do the same.

Congrats, MAGAts. You got what you ordered. Unfortunately, the smart people got what you ordered, too.

President Carter was too gentlemanly to give anyone the finger, so I’d like to think this is his way of expressing the sentiment.

If you have followed me recently and I haven’t followed you back, I apologize if you’re legit. I’ve had a rash of people who LOOKED legit, and then popped up with spam in my DMs the minute I followed back. That’s an instant unfollow, block, and delete.

Re: Hunter Biden. I’d have lost respect for Biden if he HADN’T pardoned him. It’s long past time to quit playing by rules the other side wipes their ass with.

It’s once again that time of year when we honor friends, family, food, and the fact that Ben and JLo were doomed from this moment on. youtu.be/wCQEs4uXbSc

This Veterans Day, I have one simple request. Don’t you DARE thank me for my service if you voted for someone who has publicly called me a “sucker” and a “loser.” Your performative faux patriotism means nothing to me. Just flip me off, I’ll flip you off, and we’ll call it good. #VeteransDay

When I hear an athlete who just made an amazing play give “all the glory to Jesus,” I instantly lose respect. It’s not that I disrespect their faith. It’s that I think that’s a pathetically transactional view of religion. “God decided to help me personally because I’m so devout.” 1/2

I know #Yellowstone is really popular and I’m sure it’s good, but I generally don’t enjoy the genre/setting, so I’ll prolly pass. In the meantime, the trailers seem to mostly consist of Costner being craggy and Kelly Reilly sneering out boss-lady threats. Succession out west?

Okay. Big girl pants back on. Time to go put on my neutral face and explain to my students why, 159 years after the end of slavery and 104 years after the 19th Amendment, we still can’t elect a smart, patriotic, accomplished black woman over a stinking pile of festering feces.

Perhaps VP Harris should simply refuse to certify the results of the election. 👍🏼

After tonight, I never want to hear another starry-eyed leftist say “This is not who we are.” Clearly, this is EXACTLY who we are.

I have completed the assignment in red Missouri. Have a blue day, folks! #HarrisWalz2024

I needed a red win tonight. 🏈🏈🏈 I need a blue win tomorrow. 🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸 #BlueWave #HarrisWalz2024

The endorsement no one asked for. Stay on your side of the line, Nick. Hitler’s fine, but dressing as garbage is a bridge too far?
