At this point, the best thing that could possibly happen to this country is for him to suffer a massive heart attack and die. And then, when we vote Vance out of office in 2 years, we make goddamn sure that this fascist bullshit can never happen again.

What I really do not understand is this: team management heard the roar of boos from the crowd every time Britta Curl was on our ice, and they thought it a good idea to draft, let alone sign, Curl Jr.?? Murphy has no business wearing a Torrent jersey. This is an insult to your fans.
Murph made it official ✍️

The Seattle Torrent have signed 2026 Olympic gold medalist and second-overall pick Abbey Murphy to a two-year Standard Player Agreement.

Every time I remember that Bradley Cooper is the voice of Rocket Raccoon, it blows my mind again. There is just no hint of him in there whatsoever.

If Donald Trump doesn't die before I do, I'm gonna be really pissed.

Gosh, @theguardian.com, it's probably best he didn't give you his surname. Just his totally common, not-unique-at-all given name. The Navy definitely won't be able to suss him out with that! 🤦‍♂️

I'm a little surprised we don't hear about people using BB guns to take out ALPR cameras. You'd think it would be a good way to do so. Assuming you're a decent shot, that is.

I'm looking forward to the morning of November 1st, and whether Flock cameras really did get wrecked in the hundreds the night before. That'd be fantastic.

The funniest part of this is that Girón also outed herself as a Trumpanzee with her ridiculous little diatribe here.

Yeah, dumbass, if you voted for Trump you're a hateful asshole. Full stop.
There is a lengthy pro-AI screed in the latest HWA newsletter and it is . . . a mood.

This has to be one of the most sociopathic things Trump has ever posted.
It's so breathtakingly crass to treat the deaths of Americans serving in the military as some contest, a contest that, in your twisted, rotting mind, you think you can brag about winning.

There is no reverence, sanity, solemnity, or decorum in this vile regime.

I am fully convinced that lead poisoning 70 years ago is the primary reason we are struggling so much as a country today. Gen X is the first in the history of mankind to have to deal with an older generation that is legitimately stupider.

David Brouilette has a history of violent and abusive behavior, and ICE still hired him and put him out on the street with a gun. Which he then almost *immediately* used to murder Durán Guerrero in front of Durán's daughter. www.pbs.org/newshour/nat...

If they really do happen in threes, I know a certain someone who would round out the set perfectly.

One of the greatest lies that the Right has sold the people of this country is that it's noble to work harder for less. That it is good, and right, and fair that the blue collar worker makes just enough to live, and no more.

Meanwhile, the rich grow ever richer by profiting off of that work.

Why am I not surprised? Is it because this asshole looks like Joffrey?
A Norwegian court on Monday found Marius Borg Hoiby, the eldest son of Norway’s crown princess and a stepson of the country’s heir, guilty of rape and domestic violence.
Son of Norway’s Crown Princess Is Convicted of Rape
Marius Borg Hoiby was sentenced to four years in prison. He stood trial as his mother came under pressure over her ties to Jeffrey Epstein.

"Perfect is the enemy of good."

It's a truism for a reason, but nowhere is it more appropriate than with American progressivism. So busy demanding everyone meet some unobtainable standard of perfection that they drive people away for not meeting that standard.

Dear YouTube essayists: I don't need to see your face. Like, ever. There's literally no reason, except your own ego, for you to appear in your videos. So just stop it. You can be a success without everyone knowing what you look like.

Trust me on this.

These fucking scumbags cannot help but do every unethical, evil thing they can imagine.

Anyone who thinks this is okay is an un-American asshole

I miss Wizard magazine. I know that print magazines just aren't sustainable nowadays, but there was something really fantastic about seeing a new issue on the shelves and getting to read up on all the latest comic book news.

It's weird the shit that does or does not stay with you. For instance, I know all the lyrics to this song, but I have no idea why. I wasn't what you'd call a *huge* Korn fan, but apparently I listened to this song enough to know it by heart.

So, the announcement today from the cast of Firefly felt a bit premature... No network/streaming service has picked it up yet. I get wanting to drum up excitement, but eh...

Also, Shadowmachine doesn't really have a sci-fi or realistic animation pedigree. I'm hesitant to feel any excitement here.

I don't know who keeps telling celebrities their plastic surgery looks good, but for the love of all that is good PLEASE STOP.
