You don't have to judge Columbus by the standards of today. His tenure as governor of Hispaniola was so horrific that he was dragged back to Spain in chains to answer for his many crimes.

Plus he never set foot on any land that would ever be a part of the United States of America.

Besides linking Tylenol in pregnant women to autism, RFK Jr. now says circumcision is part of the reason why kids are autistic.

"Children who are circumcised early have double the rate of autism, and it's highly likely because they're given Tylenol. None of this is positive..."

Like if there was a trivia question about which movie features Larry King, C. Everett Koop, Patrick Ewing and Samuel L. Jackson I think most people would be like "what the fuck are you talking about" and then here comes Exorcist III right through the wall like the Kool-Aid man

Smoothness is an aesthetic, not a virtue. A jagged line is just as valid and beautiful. The lines only support the larger composition.

Q: Do you agree that the mayor of Chicago and governor of Illinois should be in prison?

MIKE JOHNSON: Should they be in prison? I'm not the attorney general. I'm not following the day to day on that

Hirono: "I have to conclude that, since no wrongdoing was determined, that Homan kept the money. And I hope he will put that on his tax returns as income."

Digital gives me anxiety! With ink, if a line doesn’t pull the way I want, I just use white out to shape it. There’s not really much difference.

It really is staggering to see so many people willing to abandon our 249 year experiment in democracy for an increasingly unstable criminally convicted reality show charlatan.

That this is not only considered implausible, but that nobody in the top echelons of Congress (in either party!) will even consider being gauche enough to say the i-word, is the surest sign that the entire federal legislative branch has declared bankruptcy as a going concern.

Look. Invading our own country is about as straightforward a case as you can have for impeachment. The GOP abandoning the Constitution is kind of the only story there is and it gets no coverage.

Seth Cotlar @sethcotlar.bsky.social · 8d

Guys. I just had a crazy idea. What if the President DIDN’T deploy troops in American cities. Just a thought. Have we tried that before?
