I've left Twixter now that it's become a wretched hive of scum and villainy and will hopefully build it back better here. Weather and sports every half hour. Sometimes I draw cartoons. I/me.

Sorry for hyping this yet again, but this may be your last chance before the protest next Saturday. Don't worry if the date on your tracking is later, they just say that so people won't call to complain.

In case you didn't see last week, shirts available at www.teepublic.com/t-shirt/8098... in time for the next No Kings protest on Saturday the 18th. I think even a tapestry to make your own sign. And once you get it, send a picture of yourself wearing it to advertise it more in time for next week.

If she or any ICE agent pees outside, they'll get arrested for indecent exposure and legally have to knock on the doors of every neighborhood they go to to tell the residents that they're sex offenders.

project2025.net and project2025.edu seem to be available. You didn't hear it from me.

And she can then be arrested for indecent exposure and have to knock on doors telling everyone in her neighborhood she's a sex offender.

Cities invaded by ICE need redneck sheriffs like in 80s teen movies:
"I'm afraid drivers of vehicles with broken tail lights in our city have to spend a night in jail"
"What are you talking about? My van's perfectly fine."
(Sheriff smashes van's tail lights)
"Well, you do now!"

I've seen all this about backlash against Bad Bunny including a statement from Homeland Security. I don't think even our government knows PR is American.

If you went back in time and told me the Human Torch wanted to fuck the Silver Surfer I would have said you were crazy.

Emergency dockets were created to decide if people like the Rosenbergs were traitors. Now they'd be invited for dinner to the White House and have statues made of them

Sam Henderson @magicwhistle.bsky.social · 12d

Probably worse.

Sam Henderson @magicwhistle.bsky.social · 12d

There shouldn't be such a thing as emergency dockets. None whatsoever. If a president has any cases they should immediately be dismissed, not even looked at. It's our supreme court, not theirs.

Why even use the word alleged? They don't believe in accusations without proof. Why should we?

Conclusion: supposed to be the right's John Oliver but more like the video version of Ben Garrison. What do you expect from someone who was once editor of Maxim? 5 of 5

Every single joke was about "Democrats are stupid" or "stop calling us Nazis", none about pandas mating or air travel or co-workers' birthdays or things like that. 4 of 5

Fox people like to brag about having higher ratings. Maybe so but it doesn't include YouTube and other viral clips. What I saw: I couldn't see any difference between it and the average Fox panel show. A bit more comedy but no bands or actors to speak of. 3 of 5

Two things struck me: I've said before that talk shows were non-partisan until a few years ago and the only reason they've transformed is because they've been forced to with the constant barrage of news every day. Take that out and they'd go back to being like Letterman, Conan, etc. 2 of 5

I watched this GUTFELD! talk show the other day, despite my thesis that he's possibly the least funny comedian ever and I couldn't get through the first half. His show's supposed to be the conservative "answer" to Stewart, Colbert, etc. 1 of 5

If he believed the Medbed video of himself was real there's no reason he wouldn't believe this.

If they're making the argument that Chicago needs to be taken over because it's such a hell-hole, shouldn't they use a different picture?

Miller is the guy that was picked on in school so he'd taking it out on us, but he's somehow managed to get the guys who picked on him to help him.

You're going to the No Kings protest in your area on 10-18, right? You should go wearing this shirt www.teepublic.com/t-shirt/8098...
Other merch available too. If you photograph yourself wearing it and send it to me I will post it here. And if you don't order the shirt it means you hate democracy.

Guys that were picked on in high school are taking it out on the rest of us and somehow they got the kids who picked on them to help them do it.
