Logic? He’s always been a starfucker, and Mamdani is a rising star.

One of Len Wein’s favorites of his own work. Great collaboration with Walt Simonson.
The greatest comic short story of all time. The original Peanuts strip that inspired the masterpiece. From Detective Comics 500 by Len Wein & Walt Simonson

Please let it foretell the death of the 🍊🐖.

Once again, fucking men making decisions about women’s bodies. Let me know when they agree yo give boys vasectomies to prevent pregnancy. Oh, wait, they want women in thrall to men for fucking ever. Rich women will always be able to get abortions. Never forget that.

Len Wein delighted in telling the stories of sitting with Dave & Dave’s sketchbook, developing the characters that became the New X-men. Dave hated Wolverine’s cowl and designed the sweeping wings. Len and Bernie Wrightson were signing at Loscon when we learned Dave had died. It was a very sad day.
Today is the birthday of artist Dave Cockrum (Nov. 11, 1943-Nov. 26, 2006). Creator or cocreator of Storm, Nightcrawler, Colossus, Thunderbird, Wildfire, Mystique, the Starjammers, the Imperial Guard, Magik, & much more!

Everything the 🍊🐖 says is a lie. He is a compulsive liar. He lies when there is no reason to lie. His very bad brain is sick and wired wrong. The sooner EVERYONE remembers he always lies, the better of we will be. He is a 🪣of 💩. His eyes should be brown.
You can google this and prove it is a lie yourself. Google Walmart Thanksgiving meal 2024, then google for 2025. The 2024 meal had premium items and more of them. The 2025 meal is barebones and all generic. This is a lie.

Literally all DEMS have to do is hold the line. The GOP will cave. We do not negotiate with domestic terrorists who use hunger as a weapon against their own people.

If DEMS trade away the ACA for SNAP, we will lose the midterms.

The most powerful word in the English language is “No.”

Gorgeous moonrise tonight of which I caught a clear view while driving my dog home from his dental appointment. My 65 pound floof managed to rouse himself to eat a reduced meal tonight, but is mostly still dealing with the after effects of anesthesia. Poor sight hound. Should be normal tomorrow.

And another fucking lawsuit in the making. This incompetent AG deserves to spend the rest of her life in the John Mitchell Memorial Cell at whatever prison in which he was incarcerated.
Clean up on aisle 2: On Friday, more than a month after the indictment of Jim Comey, AG Pam Bondi signed a document purporting to ratify everything Lindsey Halligan has done as interim US attorney in the Comey and Letitia James cases. Nothing to see here folks.

Don’t forget. The Republicans can end the shut down without a single Democratic vote. They do not want to, because they will have to take responsibility for the entire resulting mess. Republican cowardice is evident every day they do not stand up to the insane slug destroying our once great country.
Today is Day 34 of the Republican shutdown. Your regular reminders:

1. Republicans control the White House, Senate and House.

2. GOP making deep cuts to Medicaid, Medicare and ACA.

3. Democrats are fighting to lower costs, cancel the cuts and save healthcare for Americans.
It’s worth repeating:

Republicans control the White House, the Senate, and the House.

If Donald Trump said end this shutdown today, Republicans would do it.

fyi, the SNAP eliminations are a Project 2025 mandate.

SNAP recipients didn’t lose benefits during prior such shutdowns.

Pay attention.

This video shows how easy it is to make bread without additives. Great video, Solomon. I make bread 4-5 times a month and I plan to try this recipe.

This is how all Democrats should respond to questions from the billionaire-controlled media.
I love how Rep. Joe Neguse reframed this question.

People will be uninsured. This number is probably way more than rent, maybe more than their monthly paycheck. Cruelty is the point.
Well, an acquaintance who relies on the ACA marketplace for insurance just received a notice explaining that their fee for coverage will be rising. Right now they pay $180 a month. The new price?

$2733.15 a month.

Yesterday, I applied for inactive status with the California Bar. I worked hard for the degree because I wanted to do some good in the world, and maybe I did. It becomes effective on December 31. I feel relief, and grief for what people in my profession are doing to to themselves to support the 🍊🐖.
