God. Lucky bastard. How cool would it be to know if you play your cards right you’ll have a Grammy award winning best selling album written about you? Best I was able to do was when I preened too much that time I dated Carly Simon.

“Apologies for being somewhat ageist, but it’s always a treat when boomers’ incriminating texts get leaked.” Not somewhat ageist, totally ageist. Choosing one demographic (age, race, gender, education...) for your schadenfreude is ignorant and disgusting. “Apologies for being somewhat misogynistic, but it’s always a…

This guy hides gold bars.

When’s the last time the republican party offered anything in the way of policy or ideas or anything even remotely related to governing or beneficial to people? Everything they do now is centered on trump and getting revenge on people who slighted him by investigating his many crimes.

Gold bars?! What is this?! Mesopotamia?! Looney Toons Mesopotamia!? There’s something that feels sooo cartoonishly corrupt about literal gold bars. Not to mention, highly inconvenient, too. Imagine having to lug these things around indiscreetly.

‘Pfft...amateur’s.’

Why does it matter who they listen to or not? Like, they choose to not listen to someone for any reason, who cares? Cut the 1975 out because his being a dick affects one’s ability to enjoy his music. Maybe other artists, whose music means more to them makes the cut even if the artists are also not great: so what? Pure…

Fetterman’s campaign and doctors had explained that his comprehension had not been impaired and he simply struggles with auditory processing.

I am pro-choice and deeply mourning the loss of reproductive rights in this country. [Bracing]. And I also think this case feels complex as at over 7 months we are talking less about a clump of cells and more about a living being who could technically be born at that time and, with assistance, survive. If this occured…

Republicans are not fiscally responsible, they’d rather pay $1,000 to make sure people suffer rather than $100 to help anyone in need.

Stand Your Ground is useless unless you’re the right kind of person and often then applies in ridiculous cases like “unarmed person argued with you”.  Part of gun control is that it’s wielded as a tool of right wing and fascistic power. If you are the “right” kind of person, you get to behave in ridiculous ways like…

It puts it under federal jurisdiction not to have higher penalties, but so that the federal prosecutors can step in when local prosecutors are ideologically disinclined to prosecute a case. See also prosecuting murder and assault as “civil rights violations.” (This practice sometimes leads to something that feels…

“The Supreme Court sought millions for security last year [after Dobbs], enlisting the U.S. Marshals to provide personal details for the justices. A year later, that security force hasn’t seen a significant increase in threats or attacks, according to documents reviewed by The Intercept, but the Supreme Court is…

It really does. Also this

I’d be willing to bet that if you told Americans that the targeting and oppression of non-trafficked, consenting adult sex workers was a major externality or side-effect of tools like Thorn, a majority would say something to the effect of “if it helps save even one child...”

Desantis: “We need to be lifting up our standards in this country, not dumbing down”.

Several young people I know, knew Cassidy - they all said the same things about her; she went to Washington as an honest ‘true believer’ in the conservative cause.  She was someone who always told the truth and was highly principled.  While I may not agree with her politics, I have no doubt she is telling the truth…

It’s fair. One by one these people “stand back and stand by” for the traitorous shit without a shred of conscience, then emerge with hot goss after the fact for profit.

Aquatics veterinarian here. I’ve met some of the people who were behind the scenes at the one involving the aquarium volunteer (I believe they filmed at Mystic Aquarium, unless I’m confusing it).

Ken Starr - He was a dyed in the wool hypocrite of the highest caliber up to the day he died.
