I was eating tacos in a suburban takeout place today and overheard the proprietor spinning a homophobic yarn about how his car once broke down outside a gay bar in NYC. "I promise they weren’t interested in you,” I said from across the room. “Unless you’ve gotten a lot worse-looking since then."

One of the funniest things about Spock is that once every seven years he gets so horny that he might blow up the ship or strangle the captain to death in pure horny fury but he doesn’t really think to let anyone know about it even though it’s been six and a half years since it happened last.

Y'all should listen to Hood Politics by @prophiphop.bsky.social because 1. He's funny and down to earth and listening to him makes me feel sane and 2. He is a highly skilled educator and storyteller. To date he is the only person to describe Iran-Contra in a way that immediately made sense to me.

Notwithstanding the Supreme Court’s fabricated immunity, he will go to prison if he’s ever not president again, and he knows it. The next four years will be about ensuring he can remain president for life, because the institutions with the ability to physically remove him from office won’t.

I am a pessimist by nature, but I have to think that if you need a message to resonate with apolitical, low-info voters it's hard to do worse than "they are going after Dolly."

I have a little context to add to this outstanding reporting. ICE lawyer James Rodden is a devout white christian nationalist who has appeared in the network built around the Lutheran nazi podcast Stone Choir. He has promoted it & has regularly interacted w co-host Ryan Dumperth aka Treblewoe. 1/
