We are changing our antifa secret handshake to slap-slap-fistbump-fistbump. Then you snap your fingers once, eat everyone's pets, and make everyone within 50' instantly become trans. Pass it along.

Imagine if the internet had brought a way for companies to afford providing services & goods without advertising and it had wiped that industry out instead of taxis and newspapers.

The government is in full shutdown and the Republicans are refusing to call the House back into session.

Want to know why?

Because we have secured the final vote on releasing the Epstein Files and they don’t want it out.

Call GOP and tell them to swear in @adelitaforcongress.bsky.social.

Damn Substack, WTF is up with your login system? I set a password so I don't have to use email codes and you send me an email code anyway? And then I get a "suspicious browser" email even though I did everything in the same tab? I gave up. Maybe this writer is on bluesky...

Why do headlines say "norms shattered" when what is meant is "laws broken" or "Constitution violated"?

Watch out, or Donny will start putting a tariff on autism.

It's only autism if it comes from the Tylenol region of France, otherwise it's just sparkling neurodivergence.
If you can't get your Tylenol fresh from the Autism Garden, acetaminophen is just fine.
