Melo steals a James Harden pass, has some trouble coming up with it but delivers a behind the back pass to Jaden McDaniels for the slam

Beyond disgusted by even more rape allegations against the President of the United States. "In total, more than 25 different women...have independently accused Donald Trump of rape, sexual assault, or other sexual misconduct." Report w/ new details: democrats-judiciary.house.gov/sites/evo-su...

In addition to this being just bleak as fuck from a human perspective, I gotta say, if you’re overwhelmed by the complexity of writing three nice things about your daughter, why should I want your opinion on literally anything important or complex?

The transportation secretary in Salvador, where a lot of the fuckery is happening, just happens to be in Paris already as his arrest is ordered

quick brazil post but man sometimes you can get crazy and almost believe in the power of democracy eh?

Lfg Brazil

The most maddening part of this -- which is saying something -- is that the cop who has torn his town into shreds thinks the remaining residents are cool with him because they smile at him when he walks by. Mind-numbing levels of cope. www.propublica.org/article/depo...

This admission alone is an impeachable offense

The Timberwolves knew their manhood was going to be tested this season after their offseason moves. So they tested themselves in the cauldron of “blood boiling” September workouts. That is where this 2-0 start began. (Free read) www.nytimes.com/athletic/771...

A big fist bump between Signature Aviation's fueler and the Eastern Air Express captain flying yesterday's ICE Air flight at MSP. They took away 24 shackled migrants from their homes around the Twin Cities. If a loved one may have been aboard, full video is here: youtube.com/watch?v=1-xmZiNEhC4

ICE causes man to wreck while his children are in the car, then tries to pry his kids from his arms. They got the wrong guy. Toward the end of the video, an ICE officer says law requires the person recording to back up 25 feet and threatens with pepper spray. (There is no 25-foot law.)

Oh yeah, that’s the good stuff

This is awful, but I appreciate how much the idiots in charge of CBS are doing to let the entire world know that they are no longer a legitimate news organization.

In my most curmudgeonly moments, I don’t see why presenting the prose output of a machine built on mass theft as your own scholarly work should be evaluated less harshly than old school plagiarism. Traditional plagiarists at least had to identify and evaluate the works they were going to copy.

we call this the Stewie shuffle

ICE arrested a 56-year old green card holder, i.e. a lawful permanent resident, and detained him in the Rio Grande Processing Center, where he died. www.texastribune.org/2026/10/19/t...

please, bring us your artisanal disasters

The Ohio Governor’s race is making me feel sick. How can we ask decent people to step up and serve knowing they could be subjected to what Amy Acton is being put through?

the routine, pay for play pardons are all by themselves one of the worst corruption scandals in american history!

We finally found the paid protesters Trump keeps talking about

THEY ARE NOT POWERLESS TO STOP HIM! Go back to Washington, stand on the steps of the Capitol and demand Johnson and Thune recall the House and Senate, and impeach him. THIS IS HOW IT IS SUPPOSED TO WORK! THERE IS LITERALLY AN INSTRUCTION MANUAL! (It's called the Constitution.)

The evil tech companies are at the center of most problems

“This is a group that built its reputation on making Biglaw squirm, so we’d love to see what happens when they take that energy to this federal government.” Nice write-up from Above the Law on PPP’s move to @rooseveltinstitute.org. abovethelaw.com/2026/10/peop...

Oh the league is looking into the reffing of a Liberty game now when it results in them losing? Ok, I see.

This ICE agent’s entire Instagram feed, “shooter.914,” is guns, watches, energy drinks, and alcohol.

New working paper: the Norwegian wealth tax was a huge success. The "exodus" of wealthy people never happened (less than 100 individuals left). Tax revenue increased by 71.5%. No changes in business activity or investment. www.nber.org/papers/w35854

If you care about STP's budget discussion, Tom's recent explainer post is worth your time. leaflet.pub/dae3de62-299...

the monster in ferngully scared the shit out of five year old jamelle

Applies to Mpls too: “Half of [St.P’s] budget is spent on Cops & Cars (47%) & if you’re a person who wants to solve finances with cuts & you’re not talking about cutting either of those things then not only are you not taking the budget seriously, you’re not even taking your own premise seriously.”

Junk fees at concerts are a legit progressive economic issue because the issue is CORPORATE MONOPOLIES and corporate power

What really frustrates me about current St Paul politics is that I both think there were legit critiques of Melvin Carter and also that most people ranked Kaohly Her based on a vague belief that Carter had a secret "Fix Everything For Cheap" button he just refused to press.

thinking about this again today
