Putin and Trump are both such legendary pranksters that I can’t figure out who snuck the DEI policies and training into the draft Ukraine plan.

this seems like the sort of thing you do to expand an internal revolt already in progress rather than to try to start one
We want to speak directly to members of the Military and the Intelligence Community.

Got email confirmation that my ballot (voting YES on #Prop50) was received.
For everyone who hasn’t done this duty yet, California makes voting so easy.
This includes convenient ballot boxes so you can avoid using the Postal Service. I dropped mine at my local library a few days ago.

Front page of the main San Diego paper, with articles covering multiple protests throughout San Diego County, including the small protest at the main gate of Camp Pendleton (where Vance and Hegseth went to bathe in testosterone).

Bluesky lists and labels seem to say more about the creators (bless their hearts for teaching me about my inner “piss-drinking Nazi”) than the people on them, but I am genuinely miffed about this one...

Time to flood the Nobel Peace Prize committee with non-Trump nominations for next year’s prize.
I’m drafting a passionate letter nominating the Inanimate Carbon Rod from when Homer Simpson went to space.

Kudos to whoever picked this picture for the intro to a piece about the Hegseth all-call. I award it 5 eyerolls.

At the Orpheum LA for tonight’s Spiritualized show. My 12th time since they blew my mind opening for the Jesus & Mary Chain in 1992 (eek!).
Picture is from my fave of those, a 2016 show at the London Barbican playing the best album of 1997 in its entirety.

I have to admit that, until today, I hadn’t wondered whether Tom Homan is named in the Epstein File.
Thanks to the news about that bribe and the administration’s reaction to it, I’m starting to suspect.

The model for the rest of Kimmel’s ABC contract should be how Norm Macdonald doubled down on OJ Simpson jokes when (allegedly) facing pressure from NBC execs friendly with OJ.
Always brutal and willing to make audiences very uncomfortable.

BINGO (as if I went out on a limb with that prediction)
It feels weird to say I’m ”eager“ to watch Bill Maher tomorrow night, but I really want to know how quickly he’ll make Jimmy Kimmel’s situation about him.
I guarantee he’ll remind us that he’s the original victim for his 9/11 controversy, and that his fall opened up the ABC slot for Kimmel.

“We can do this the easy way or the hard way“ is ridiculously unprofessional language for a supposed public servant like Brendan Carr.
Even worse, any regime toady would cry and call the cops if someone said it to them in opposition.

It’s fitting that Andor is the last show I finished on Hulu/Disney+ before this Kimmel news. Service cancelled.
