we've been in full on emperor's new clothes territory for some time now, but we're in the version where all the advisors and half the crowd also strip down and call anybody wearing clothes a terrorist

I highly recommend the subscription! Early access to the cartoon! A newsletter with insights into the creative process! Seriously, it’s a ridiculous bargain.

President Johnson, in a November 9, 1968 letter to the Smothers Brothers:

“It is part of the price of leadership of this great and free nation to be the target of clever satirists . . . May we never grow so somber or self-important that we fail to appreciate the humor in our lives.”

Cardinal Timothy Dolan on Fox & Friends on Charlie Kirk: "This guy is a modern day St Paul. He was a missionary, he's an evangelist, he's a hero. He's one I think that knows what Jesus meant when he said 'the truth will set you free.'"

The Nation pulls NO punches, from @espiers.bsky.social

"There's no requirement to take part in this whitewashing campaign. Refusing to join in doesn’t make anyone a bad person. It’s a choice to write an obituary that begins “Joseph Goebbels was a gifted marketer and loving father to six children.”

Charlie Kirk’s Legacy Deserves No Mourning

The white Christian nationalist provocateur wasn’t a promoter of civil discourse. He preached hate, bigotry, and division

It’s past time for legacy media to stop playing stenographers and start exposing and challenging the language that these nazis use to further their agenda.

Psssst. "Judeo-Christian" is a fabricated construct used to hijack Judaism by white Christian nationalists to serve empire and has no actual social, historical or scholarly basis. Pass it on.

OMB Director Russ Vought speaking at NatCon now.

If you love Costco (as I do), let them know they’ve fucked up with this move. #costco #dobetter

Rebecca Watson @skepchick.org · Aug 22

Costco announced they will not stock mifepristone in their pharmacies. Contrary to viral social media posts, this IS a big deal and it DOES mean that they caved to pressure from far-right MAGA anti-woman conservatives. Here I go over the evidence and what you can do skepchick.org/2025/08/cost...
