Um… “Pope Bob?” The Discordians sure do play the long game…

And then St. Upid did turn the 401k’s into 4.01k’s and the people donned their red hats and cried out in ecstasy that it was Great Again. And they feasted on the eggs and the Diet Cokes and the KFC

Today the MAGA president suggested that he might not uphold and defend the constitution.

Will Ange in or Ange out make a difference? Or is the deeper problem that Tottenham’s owners have assembled a solidly mid-table squad? #COYS #THFC

The average american home has more than two televisions. 50 years ago 30% of american homes had no televisions.

Ummm. Will someone just say it? The emporer is naked AF Trump is PSYCHO

80 years ago on this day, Adolf Hitler shot himself. Never give up hope.

I’ll take “signs of the apocalypse” for $666, Alex.

If only we had an entity—call it “Congress”—that could exercise oversight over out-of-control, so-called “law enforcement” agencies that are acting in illegal and authoritarian ways. kfor.com/news/local/w...

The new model? This is the 1950 model.

Bourbon Sidecar. That’s it. That’s the skeet.

Anti-woke history is going to be worse than woke history.

Calling Tottenham’s defense shit is an insult to shit defenses everywhere. #COYS #THFC

Strong statement from a very alarmed @judgeluttig.bsky.social.

If they were arresting judges in another country with an authoritarian-inclined (even if democratically elected) government, we'd be alarmed. We in the U.S. should be alarmed.

MAGA is deporting children who are citizens. No due process. No humanity. Children. Donald Trump and his goons should burn in hell.

The fact that we are also making lists of Jewish professors proves the harmlessness of our registry of autistic children. by Linda McMahon and RFK Jr.

They deported a 2-year old U.S. Citizen. MAGA is evil and un-American.

“He has made Judges dependent on his Will alone”

there really is no alternative to tearing up CBP and ICE root and branch

Serious question. Kristi Noem was pictured with a Rolex in El Salvador, and got 3k in cash stolen. She has been on a govt salary for years. Something aint right

JD Vance is working on his next best seller. “Papal Elegy” will be a moving portrayal of the spiritual decline and existential crisis of a generation of priests forgotten and left behind by vows of poverty mandated by elitist coastal cardinals.

"In one of his final public appearances leading the stations of the cross on Good Friday, Francis [said], “Today’s builders of Babel tell us that there is no room for losers and that those who fall along the way are losers. Theirs is the construction site of Hell.” www.thebulwark.com/p/a-pope-who...

Pope Francis’s "Urbi et Orbi" Easter speech: “How much contempt is stirred up at times towards the vulnerable, the marginalized and migrants...I appeal to all those in positions of political responsibility in our world not to yield to the logic of fear which only leads to isolation from others.”

Pete Hegseth is giving a phenomenal single-handed demonstration as to why substance abuse is considered a massive DoD/national security info/sec red flag.

I mean, it's not like we didn't point out that a loudmouth drunkard with poor impulse control and a history of abuse wouldn't make a great SECDEF...

The only reason we ever became concerned with a “trade deficit” was in the 80s when Japanese car companies were eating American companies lunch. That’s it. It’s not meant to be an economic strategy. I have a trade deficit with Applebees but we’re fine

I’m holed up in my office doing taxes and listening to music. It was a close call between this and some nice soothing death metal. (Does the IRS allow a quadrophonic stereo deduction?)

Could the problem with Tottenham Hotspur simply be that most of their players are candy-ass losers with no heart? #COYS #THFC

It's striking how much Trumpists hate what's made the United States great: immigration, trade, medical and scientific research, the rule of law, an enlightened patriotism, a willingness and ability to correct past injustices. At the end of the day, Trumpism is Third Worldism.

🤣

Well, fuck.

"Digital ones and zeros." Spoken like someone with money who won't retire for another 40 years anyway. No one hates the working class now like MAGA world.

I find it funny that people insist on characterizing Donald Trump and his MAGA movement as “conservative.” They are radicals hell-bent on destruction. That is not conservative.

50% on all solar system imports of sunshine & warmth For too long the sun has been ripping America off! Earth can make its own low-entropy energy packets!!

Finally, some good news.
