I'm pretty irritated at Mike Judge. Idiocracy made me believe it would take 500 years for our society to devolve to this state, not 20.

Every few weeks we gotta make posts like this”call your dem reps to tell them to not vote to allow Lord Killdude to shove people into a volcano” and then the dem reps go “we’ve made an amazing deal where Lord Killdude can have his volcano so long as he promises not to shove people into it”

This might be the single funniest statement I've seen about all this tonight.
Republicans? Feel shame? That's hilarious.

Agree.
Sen Hassan, asked what will happen if Republicans don't carry out the deal, "Well, shame on them."
This is not what people were mobilizing for on Oct 18.

agreeing to make a terrible deal while your main opponent is quite literally being boo'd on live tv by an entire stadium of people is the kind of political instinct you'd normally only find in a 3 week old dead goldfish

Okay, can we end the shutdown down? But, like, not in a stupid way?

Wait when did the Badgers start insisting on recruiting guys who share last names with notable Blue Jackets players?
Wisconsin leads Michigan 5-1 after two periods. Aiden Dubinsky restored the Badgers' three-goal lead after Luca Fantilli scored the Wolverines' sixth SHG of the season. Christian Fitzgerald scored his sixth PPG later.

This is voter suppression, plain and simple. But I'd expect nothing less from Ohio Republicans
Ohio Senators have voted to require that absentee ballots arrive by Election Day to be counted. In 2022, ballots postmarked by Election Day had 10 days to show up. Lawmakers changed that to four days in 2024, and now look to axe the grace period entirely. ohiocapitaljournal.com/2025/11/07/o...
Ohio Senate approves bill requiring that absentee ballots arrive by Election Day to be counted • Ohio Capital Journal

The Supreme Court has to understand that the president is breaking the law in ways I like. Or at least in ways that I'm unwilling to challenge even though they're objectively not achieving their supposedly national interest goals and also breaking the law. So the Court must defer to that.
Mike Johnson: "I think the Court has to give deference to that. I think the Court has to recognize the executive is doing what they're doing -- he's using tariffs to create leverage in our trade strategy, and it's yielding great results for the American people."

The government’s next witness, Metro Transit Police Department Detective Daina Henry, describes the sandwich throw as like a “baseball pitch.”

I bet the Jets were happy with the draft picks, but Jerry Jones was like "No, the deal's off unless you take Mazi Smith off our hands"
The final deal:
Jets get: 2026 2nd-round pick, 2027 1st-round pick and DT Mazi Smith
Cowboys get: DT Quinnen Williams

Blockbuster: The Jets are trading three-time Pro Bowl DL Quinnen Williams to the Cowboys, sources tell The Insiders.
New York gets a 2026 first-round pick and more for Williams, who gets a fresh start at age 27.

The prosecution’s case against the sandwich tosser is sub par. This kind of case is the defense team’s bread and butter. Any way you slice it, the DOJ is in a real pickle.

felony footlong downgraded to misdemeanor muffuletta bsky.app/profile/jami...
Lairmore testifies that other agents gave him a plush sandwich toy, which he placed on the shelf in his office, and a patch that said "Felony Footlong," which he put on his lunch box.
Lairmore has chuckled with the rest of us at times. Defense really trying to underscore the unseriousness of it all

This cross-examination seems to really poupon his earlier testimony
The defense team presses Lairmore on whether the sandwich really 'exploded.' They return to the photo of the sandwich and wrapper on the ground.
"That sandwich hasn't exploded at all, has it?" defense asks.
"It looks like a little bit is coming out towards the bottom," Lairmore replies.
