Full-time porch napper, howl enthusiast, and biscuit connoisseur. Barking my truth.
Every day, watching that fool comment on any and everything, reminds me of José Jiménez. His schtick was the language barrier faced by new immigrants; Trump's is that he's the absolute dumbest human being alive. Also, with Trump it's not a bit.
Trump wants to “cherish” and “watch over" AI? He didn’t even do that for his kids!

Always worth a reminder.

I've wondered to myself how dumb a person has to be not ton understand this. But I'm not sure they're dumb. If they're white and speak English natively, they believe it simply won't happen to them--and 99% or more of them are almost certainly right.

There's an old man in this Barnes & Noble giving his credit-card information over the phone at the top of his lungs. I fear it's a trap.

New insecurity unlocked: am I dumb enough to be rich and powerful?
Literally the two dumbest motherfuckers I’ve EVER heard of are the richest guy in the world and the President, but my smart and cool friends doubt themselves every day.

Your insecurities are fake. Your hang-ups are fake. Your limitations are fake. Go do whatever you want I promise it’s possible.

If we're going to name stuff after Trump, it should exclusively be nuclear waste dumps, islands that the navy bombs for practice, superfund sites, and the national strategic reserve of piss.

I’m looking forward to an angry ex outing her sheep-f*cking husband, and we all find out he’s a Trump donors who was rejected before.
I'm old enough to remember when the Christian right fear-mongered that marriage equality would lead to bestiality and now it qualifies you to be an FBI agent.

Not even a participation trophy? I thought everyone gets one of those.
I think this was ultimately the right move.

I’ve thought Buttigieg was a POS from the moment I heard him say, “Medicare for all WHO WANT IT” like he was pulling a rabbit out of a hat. What he obviously meant was that he would use bureaucratic hurdles to limit who gets access to health care.
also talarico, newsom, buttigieg etc already know that they’re wrong.

they’re being cynical, unprincipled, opportunists.

even if cis voters don’t care about us they should view the amorality of transphobic dems as a major red flag.

Wanting all the civil rights you’re entitled to by the constitution makes you a no-good, greedy “maximalist.”
One of the more insidious phrasings I've seen with the Dems/trans rights discourse lately is the idea that trans people are being greedy and demanding a "maximalist" approach to trans rights.

No, you cannot call the state of rights American trans people had as recently as 2023 "maximalist," sorry.

Turns out that everyone who accused Trump of being a bumbling, bamboozling, bankrupting bigot who'd use hate to spiral America into ruin while looting us and helping the worst people on earth sink their boots into our necks while acting like a victim was right. Hope you're happy with yourselves

If you're losing relevance, just try transhobia. Even one-hit wonders are getting in on the action.

Happy 72nd Birthday to Ruby Bridges, who at the age of 6 desegregated the New Orleans public schools.

She’s younger than 30 senators and our last two presidents—and only 7 years older than Barack Obama.

The past isn’t past.

‘Not feasible’: With ballots already in the mail, election officials say it is too late for Trump’s USPS order
While the Trump administration's bid to overhaul mail-in voting remains blocked by the lower courts, North Carolina will be the first state to send ballots on Friday.

It occurred to me today that with the oil crisis developing in the strait of Hormuz, Putin might just be having some FAFO of his own: he helped Trump get elected knowing he'd be disastrous for the United States, without properly appreciating that, actually, he's disastrous for the whole damn world.

HT to Mad Magazine: In the old days stitches had to be removed by a doctor. They hurt when they were removed. Now we have dissolving stitches. They hurt when they dissolve.

The funnest thing about libertarian theory (which is a thing!) is trying to figure out how long ago "homesteading" law would have been applicable to the place where you live. In my fair city, the answer is roughly 13,000 years ago.

Hands has captured Biden so perfectly, I have no notes. Obama picked him not because he’s good on race, but because having the whitest cracker available would improve his chances of getting elected.
The problem was that Biden was the guy chosen as Obama's VP to make a Black president seem less scary. The 2020 election was a battle of two different flavours of racist grandpa, the one who can barely stop himself from shouting slurs and the one who tells fond stories of his segregationist friends.

Well gosh. This seemed to have pissed of an Irish fellow enough to block me. I can only guess what’s so upsetting about hearing that indigenous Irish were dark skinned and didn’t speak a Celtic language.
Also true. I went looking because the OP specifically said “white,” and in the case of the British occupation the colonized people were also white. So I went looking to see if that was always true, and nope; around 2000 BCE, they weren’t white and didn’t speak a Celtic language.
