That’s a good one. I was leaning towards Muskrat, but it’s an insult to actual muskrat’s.

chat is it good for a dictionary to be mad at you

Filosofia de muro

Did I miss the ‘Magical Money Tree’ invention on Dragons Den this week ?

To the 30 folks that might see this. YOU MATTER

Glad to see this. Unfortunately it’s what might qualify as good news amidst the daily news of democracy’s destruction.

You know, the entire point of this post was so that I could make the "President is South African" joke.

Brilliantly funny!

Congrats Bluesky on 32 MILLION users!!! Give up the Muskrat, and come to where the skies are blue.

For a US government that hates DEI, it's curious that the Secretary of State is Cuban, the FBI director is Indian, the DNI head is Samoan-Indian, and the President is South African.

I hate this asshole. Who the fuck does he think he’s talking to? X would tell him to shut his mouth. How much do you think musky-douche owes us in taxes?

Mitch McConnell announced his retirement after 40 years of working hard to make Kentucky one of the poorest, most under-educated, and unhealthy states in the US.

Trump’s approval numbers are going down faster than Lauren Boebert on a first-date.

Fun fact: while Phony Stark and the DOGEbags are taking money from our veterans, the world’s poorest people and kids with cancer, Assistant President Poopy Pants has already spent nearly $11 million of our money… playing golf.

Complete trash! Also, shouldn’t it be “whom” you call a dick?

To the shock of all our allies, “Vance told a series of misleading stories designed to demonstrate that European democracies aren’t democratic.” www.theatlantic.com/internationa...

Important 🧵: Stanford political scientist uses data to show DOGE is attacking “liberal” agencies, not focusing on waste & inefficiency: “The hardest hit agencies are those that regulate industry, protect public health, and expand access to education.”

Tomorrow in the NYT: Nothing emphasizes the elderly and out-of-touch character of Democratic Party leadership than their reluctance to allow a new generation of white nationalist 19-year-olds to have access to everyone's tax records

Likely some Philly fans still celebrating the Super Bowl.

That’s a big bowl of word salad with shit dressing.

It’s encouraging to see the military take a stand against the Turd Reich regime. The time may soon come when they are our last best hope for our democracy.

Did You Know? The inventor of the bestselling Super Soaker was a Black man—and Hasbro tried to cheat him out of his royalties. In 2013, Lonnie Johnson, a nuclear engineer and former NASA scientist, won a $73 million settlement from Hasbro for underpaid royalties. Johnson holds over 80 patents.

Thank you, Wanda.

Incredible journalism.

Tom Homan is afraid of AOC, and he should be. Bullies always crumble when people forcefully stand up to them. More of this, please

It's really this simple, folks.

Unfortunately the Turd Reich in general is immune to facts. The nominal leader of the Turd Reich, for example, still refuses to admit that his tariffs are a tax paid by Americans.

Anyone finding that dogebag’s words reassuring?

Hmmm… and the answer is: cause you’re a doge-bag.

You’re experiencing what’s known as doge-bagenfreude.

NYC Mayor Eric Adams debuts his new look.

There is just no f’n bottom!

Access is too benign a word. Almost a certainty that what access means is the ability to download the information to DOGE controlled servers and also possibly install code permitting unlimited future “access.” Modifying tax data for friends and enemies would also not be out of the question.

What could possibly go wrong?
