"oh no, this'll make the right wing mad!" Buddy they get into a frothing rage over like, cereal mascots and cartoon characters and the mere existence of gay people and what oil a French fry is cooked in and women knowing how to read, etc. They'll get mad anyway, no matter what. Tell em to fuck off

I just got the worst news. Steve died of a heart attack over the weekend. He was a wise and good man and a heck of a writer. He’ll be missed terribly. Condolences to his family.

What is it about April 9 that makes racist assholes feel like surrendering

American soccer’s woes are entirely due to the failure of the supporters to sing Grand Funk’s “We’re an American Band.” In this telenovela, I will

Happy Loser Day, CSA stans.

Say what you want about the Romans, at least Caligula wasn't elected H.L. Mencken must be pissing himself laughing. More democracy and less voter suppression would have mitigated all this, but what do you do when 80 million people would rather light themselves on fire than vote for a black woman?

Just LOOK at what Trump has done to the LA Galaxy I see why people are protesting everywhere

Red Wave

Defence Ministry: Shoreline defence force Gentoo’s prepare mortars. Our Navy Seals conduct clandestine training, and teach tactical camouflage and concealment to juveniles. We stand ready. Flippers Up.

There's something about watching Joanna Gaines making delicious burgers and fries on her cooking show that reminds me that she's an interior designer and you know as much about making a burger as she does

Please subscribe to listen to the next ep of my podcast, "Fuck You, Elon" where I'll be laughing unroariously for 3 hours.

You read that excerpt and you realize that most of that shit would’ve gotten anyone else fired, and the fact that it hasn’t gotten McAfee fired, but in fact elevated, seems to say that ESPN wants this sort of behavior and that they share some responsibility. But… IANAL.

as trans day of visibility fades into night, it's time to build support for a new holiday: trans week of unfettered access to long-range rocket artillery

I've found Ben Shapiro's "True Allegiance" a real comfort in these difficult times However bad things get, at least I didn't write "True Allegiance"

It is entirely understandable and acceptable to hate the people who support Republican policy. There is, after all, no Republican policy that isn't motivated by ignorance, stupidity and malice. The number of people who support such things is not relevant to either morality or desirability.

Pete Hegseth just texted me the Wu-Tang Secret
