In like 400 years people are going to talk about this era of American empire the same way that we joke about the crazy emperors period of Rome and there is a certain dark comedy to that. Real Elagabalus vibes

Not sure how controversial a take this is but Das Sound Machine should’ve won the World A Capella Championship in Pitch Perfect 2.

the core point of the pedocon theory article is that some people are looking for unequal relationships--people who are easier to control and manipulate--and one very reliable way of achieving that is to go after young people

liberalcurrents.comWe Need to Talk About Pedocon TheoryThe connection between Donald Trump and Jeffrey Epstein is no accident, but reveals a deep logic at the heart of reactionary politics.

Trump: "Ramaswamy put up a very powerful Ad about a mother saying that her daughter, Acton, is a liar, and much worse. The Press is trying to get him to 'take down the Ad.' Frankly, anybody whose mother spoke about daughter that way would normally lead to the daughter being precluded from serving"

I read the full trilogy to both of my kids during their respective extended stays in the NICU, so it will always occupy a very special place in my heart and I can’t wait to see this movie in the theaters multiple times.

look there's a lot of things that are silly about having spent most of my life in academia but one thing I will go to the mat for: backpacks are unbelievably useful tacticalwear and if you phased them out of your life you played yourself

We really don’t talk enough about the fact that Trump has made it abundantly clear to the white nationalist militias of America that they can any sort of violence they want, and he will pardon them as long as it serves him remaining president.

🎶🎶 Hot town, punching Hello Kitty So adorable-even bleeds real pretty Head’s big but her body’s itty-bitty Should I punch her more? Gonna ask the committee Staggering ‘round, kitty Walkin half dead Walkin into traffic-squashed like a flatbread… 🎶🎶🎶

So is “gettin maced” a euphemism for getting blasted all over the face while eating her out or what? Asking for a definitely not shamefully horny friend.

So Nancy Mace is now hosting a podcast called 'Get Maced' in a leather catsuit. And no you did not hallucinate that sentence.

Foolish of me to think I was getting out of DFW without some sort of fuck up by American Airlines that delays us. Today, they somehow loaded the plane wrong which was discovered right before take off and now we’re taxiing back to the gate.

Ed Sheeran has lost the Voros Twins. It’s kinda funny how he may have actually committed full career suicide in order to “not take sides” in a genocide. Generational L.

lol us dork ass Rush fans have absolutely taken over the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame and we’re now group chanting at the house band covering the 2112 Overture. At 45 I am the youngest person in the room.

This whole thing gets funnier & funnier. It’s hilarious that Ed Sheeran thought he’d get anywhere good kowtowing to Robert Kraft. It’s hilarious how quickly that backfired in his face when all of his musicians bailed on him. And it’s hilarious that the nominal hero in this particular story did this.

Being reminded how much I enjoy Kyle Chandler watching Lanterns also reminded me that I’ve never once looked at an episode of Friday night lights so I’m finally getting around to it.

Stephen Rannazzisi ass liar hours from Trump I guess

Aaron Rupar@atrupar.com

Trump claims he was basically lifted out of the rubble on 9/11: "Two fireman, big strong guys, they grabbed me under the arms -- 'got to get our of here!' -- and they literally lifted me up, and they started running with me."
