All this AND Triscuit and Hydrox got adopted together today! They are a bonded pair who came to Austin in the flooding aftermath.

they all made the colossal mistake of thinking that 77M votes meant they got to dominate every aspect of american life and culture. now they're realizing that the only thing that's changed culturally is everyone just hates them more

lol “No Kings” is such brilliant branding because Trump’s people are such inveterate reactionary shitposters that their only reaction is, can possibly be, “oh him being a king triggers you? Then yeah he’s a king, he should be the king forever.”

the weirdest fucking thing about the old dying man we elected president is that the thing he wants more than anything, that he’s absolutely desperate for, it is to be liked by the people he is trying to kill

Agree 💯

1. Philly (only thing guaranteed to stay healthy is Embiid’s ego)

2. Lakers (Bron/Luka/Rob Pelinka is a ticking time bomb)

3. Warriors (is Geritol considered a performance-enhancing substance by the league??)

Also watch Houston (KD ego?) and OKC (Riley’s “disease of more” theory)

In an effort to control my weight (tough for us…(ahem) late-middle aged…guys to keep the pounds off), I’ve been more conscious of my grocery purchases.

But, now it’s Saturday night and I want some goddam snackies!!

When the Supreme Court recently allowed immigration agents to consider race during sweeps, Justice Brett Kavanaugh said that citizens shouldn’t be concerned because agents will “promptly let the individual go.”

For these Americans, that wasn’t true: https://propub.li/47aawMD

50+: Immigration agents have the authority to detain whom they reasonably suspect are in the country illegally. We found more than 50 Americans who were held after agents questioned their citizenship. They were almost all Latino.

~130: Agents also can arrest U.S. citizens who allegedly interfered with or assaulted officers. We compiled cases of about 130 Americans, including a dozen elected officials, accused of assaulting or impeding officers.

~20: Among the citizens detained are nearly 20 children, including two with cancer.

Hey, wasn't 1965 in the 'Golden Age' of the US economy? Hmmm.... I wonder why that was...
In the 1960s, around 33% of American workers were union members, while in the 2020s, this number has fallen to about 10%
