I would really love it if we moved past having podcast hosts without germane expertise running our regulatory apparatuses. Anyway, take 2, I suppose. Let’s see how long this one lasts.
between the secretary of the treasury going on cable news to discuss war strategy, and the secretary of state speaking on a roundtable about college sports during a war... i'm starting to wonder how much it actually matters who is secretary of what over there
The woman who told FBI agents that Trump sexually assaulted her when she was as young as 13 recalled that she and her mother received death threats afterward, with callers saying “we know where you’re at, you need to keep your mouth shut."
Here's a Miami Herald gift link.
So you’re saying it’s a statewide fetish for pale redheads?
This can be explained by Pennywise also living in Maine.

this isn't just a MAGA thing, it's a cross-American one and *especially* a lot of people who came of age in politics or punditry in the 1990s. the idea that the news could happen to them - that the world might not be all going their way - is genuinely brain-breaking to a lot of them
Strongly recommend calling your US senators today to tell them:
1. Publicly call for Sheehy to be expelled from the Senate for assaulting a protestor.

like, if you go in and want to get lightning bolts on your neck because you love frankenstein, your tattooer is going to be like, “hold up, maybe you don’t want this because”, but this *specific* design is *universally* understood to mean one and only one thing
this whole thing is incredibly insulting to everyone's intelligence, but i'll say, from experience, that if you get a tattoo which might have even the slightest hint of a hidden meaning, every rando who thinks they know anything about tattoos is going to mention something to you about it
Gorgeous!
Baby’s first portrait.
Can’t stop won’t stop.
I served, you're absolutely full of shit. The poster or book with forbidden tattoos is older than either of us. And I was a combat medic, saw plenty of infantry with ink and none of it racist symbols. Because they wanted to stay in the military.

I will never forget her gleeful poses in front of prisoners early in her tenure, all of which has been characterized by her enthusiasm for brutality and violence.
She should be remembered as a vicious fascist who had no qualms about terrorizing, killing, and defaming people while running an agency that should not exist.
Just for kicks I just looked up how much I spent on gas last year and it was around $600 for the whole year.
Listen man I'm so happy I'm a soft-handed scribe. This shit rocks. I get to use my brain and make a lot of money writing special Poasts. My great-grandfather would have murdered someone to ensure that his descendants could have my job.
This *has* put me in "block and move on" mode so I guess I have that going for me?
Same handle on Instagram without the Bsky stuff
There's a guy on Instagram and presumably TikTok who does all-Dutch guy comedy and it's fantastic
Oh hey he's here too
He's @letsdoubledutch.bsky.social
new Type of Guy (dutch) just dropped
I mean, I get it. It's a sudden and abrupt disruption to your household's budget!
It was stuff like me getting a cup of coffee and some random person I worked with who knew I took the train saying "oh, I guess YOU have nothing to worry about" and I'd look at them blankly and they'd say "YOU don't have a car" and I'd laugh nervously and run away.
