BELOW: When one character breaks the fourth wall because another character is such a stupid asshole.

“Trump and Vance appear to have entered the meeting with the intention of berating Zelensky and drawing him into an argument as a pretext for the diplomatic break,” Jonathan Chait writes: theatln.tc/ejdvMpQT

MAGA adores Andrew Tate, the influencer who became famous by glorifying the abuse of women, @davidfrum.bsky.social writes. The reason is unsettling:

I wonder if Musk pictures this whenever he is irritated with all of the little people getting in the way of his grand plans? Gotta get SpaceX right on it.

Let’s face it. Getting rid of Diversity, Equity and Inclusion is to make way for less qualified white men to take positions they don’t deserve.

When Trump meets with Putin, does he start on his knees or does Putin like to see him drop?

This is re: Trump's EO to ban trans persons from the military. Reyes is a federal judge. If I got this etherized in court I'd walk into the fucking sea. bsky.app/profile/mike...

So wait a minute. It is back to being Fort Bragg but it is not THAT Bragg but a different Bragg? Children. These people are friggin children.

Think Tank Called ‘The Himmler Institute’ Assures Nation This All Legal theonion.com/think-t...

Imagine the instant reporter street cred earned when at the next Trump news conference, when he points to someone for a question, that person says "Are you gathering a list of questions for when the guy in charge shows up?"

I wonder how long it will be before Trump announces that the Secret Service is disbanded and replaced by the Wagner Group.

I am seeing things about Canadian fans booing the US national anthem at hockey games. Wholly appropriate for the flag of a people who elected someone who questioned the sovereignty of Canada and wants to make it at best a client state. Complete and utter lies about drugs and such ignored.

Increasing numbers of January 6 attackers seem to be getting themselves killed. It is like Karma is going all Final Destination now.

The more you impose tariffs on other countries the more they start going to other countries for business. Other countries are taking advantage. This is just stupid gesturing and flexing by ignorant morons that serves the isolationist goals of those who are using them.

If you are someone who did not vote for Trump but also did not vote for Harris because of Gaza, today's comments from Trump are another reminder for me to say bite me.

a bunch of posts about abortion pills vanished from Instagram. Meta put them back after we asked what was happening: www.nytimes.com/2025/01/23/t...

I think I can safely expect that the next four years with this POTUS will be summarized by future historians with the following: A shitty man elected by shitty people did a shitty thing. Rinse, repeat.

This playbook seems to be used for a lot more than anti-Semitism these days.

I just spit out my tea.

We're trying to decide if "Bits and Bile" is a better name for a restaurant or a band. Don't ask how we got here.

Am I remembering things wrong? It seems like years ago you could be pulled over for something even obstructing part of a license plate renewal sticker but these days you could stick an essentially opaque piece of plastic back there that might or might not have a plate under it at all.

In true Klingon fashion, the Columbus Blue Jackets are endowed with two Johnsons but are only using one tonight for the challenge.

The Columbus Blue Jackets are in fact not running on all Sillingers tonight.

Instagram and Threads users will soon no longer be able to, per BBC, opt out of being shown political content from people they don't follow. Platform head Adam Mosseri said users *ahem* were requesting it. Nothing nefarious to see here. Your reactions to it will be conditioned into you shortly.

Remember that when you see someone MAGA on Twitter or Facebook, there is a good chance what they really mean is Cделать Aмерики здорово Cнова or 让美国再次伟大.

A lot of MAGA types probably find it hillarious that other countries are getting angry over Trump's bluster about invading Greenland and Panama, but that is because they never really developed past early grade school and bullying is funny to them.
