Technically, a dictionary is a book of spells.

Consolidation is killing our industry. The Gamergaters who make money off the rage game will have you think this is a victory. This is purely a loss. A loss of work and art and fun and expression in a space that desperately needs it. Massive fucking bummer.

DEVASTATING FLOOD Security camera footage shows the moment the flood crashes through the Nepal-China border. The flash flood wipes out everything in its path. People, houses, roads, and power projects were swept away in Nepal, while officials in Tibet said they feared “major casualties.”

How fortunate it is that I lived in the time of Sam Neill and was able to grow up watching his greatness. RIP

PASTOR LORAN LIVINGSTON (@CentralChurchNC): “There has never been a Christian nation, and never will be. You don’t live in one now. A Christian nation wouldn’t have killed and displaced 20 million Native Americans, or thought owning slaves was pleasing to God.”

👀 FOX (!) On Trump’s Obscene $2 BILLION+ Self-Dealing: “We’re seeing a lot of the MAGA base turning on the president with this. They’re saying ‘Look— he really doesn’t care about us. He’s getting richer, I’m getting poorer.”

Donald Trump came one vote away from getting the Supreme Court to say that the 14th Amendment does not guarantee birthright citizenship for the children of undocumented and temporary immigrants, a view held only by fringe far-right nativists until VERY recently. This is shocking. I am stunned.

The Fourth belongs to all of us. Don't let Trump take that from you. Watch John Adams on HBO. Watch 1776. And remember: You are the heir to that revolution as much as any other American.

If you want to stop something before it gets worse you 'nip it in the bud.' You figuratively pinch off the bud before it opens into a leaf or flower. You don't 'nip it in the butt' but we're not here to shame.

There are two ways to pronounce 'niche.' \NICH\ (rhymes with pitch) \NEESH\ (rhymes with sheesh) \NICH\ is the slightly more common one and the older of the two pronunciations. We realize either can feel like a niche pronunciation.

I think in the long run this will be a good thing for the Democratic Party. In order to be competitive, it will now have to speak to voters more on economic and less on identity politics, which had limited appeal in those states. The party will adapt and come out stronger.

Trump falls asleep at event on affordability

For decades, birthday party clowns folded balloons and played games. John Wayne Gacy is taking a different approach.

When it happens, I will say the same.

Thank you *checks notes* Lithuania for doing more to discover the truth and bring wealthy criminals to justice than the US federal government

Nash is 100% right! And Trump is lying as usual. Here’s what Hunter Hess actually said:

1. It was not an accident. 2. It was not a staffer. 3. While the president may have dementia his racism is not due to dementia. 4. He isn’t sorry. He means every racist thought he shares. 5. His base agrees with him. 6. He will do it again. 7. No one in power will hold him accountable.

BREAKING: Supreme Leader Trump has repealed the Second Amendment

Trump: "You can't have guns...You can't walk in with guns. You can't do that."

Pope Leo’s top U.S. ally — Cardinal Joseph Tobin — calls on Congress to defund ICE.

“LET US OUT!” women & children scream for help inside a detention camp in TEXAS, where private prisons like core civic make billions of taxpayer dollars holding them while abusing, neglecting them, refusing them health care, feeding them dirty food & water, etc. In our name🇺🇸

TACO strikes again

people.com/nj-girl-foun... "6 years old... walking by herself on the street, crying, crying out for her dad, asking, 'Where's Papi? Where's Papi?'..."

Danish Parliament Deputy Speaker Lars-Christian Brask: "If I could come with some advice, it would be for the Senate & House to start to take control of political power in America because with this erratic & mad behaviour, you have to ask the question, is the President capable of running the US?"

ICE ended up returning the man, Saly, after realizing he’s a fucking US citizen with no criminal record, per his sister-in-law. These fucking animals.

This is stunning. Listen to this in Philadelphia. Thousands singing “Hey-Oh, we won’t be silent while our friends are gunned down.” Really listen to it.

What in the Gestapo is going on in Grand Rapids? Watch this activist get arrested *mid-interview* for speaking out against U.S. action in Venezuela.

Happy new year!

Deport Bad Bunny? Where, back to the Puerto Rico…which is part of what country again?

INVENTOR OF THE WASHING MACHINE: it’s a machine that washes INVENTOR OF THE DISHWASHER: washes what

As you may know, I have stopped using Twitter, and have decided to reproduce some of my more memorable threads here for posterity. Here’s one I hold wrote after a particularly engaging swordfighting lesson. Buckle up, swordfighting fans, because I *have* studied my Agrippa! [BIG ASS THREAD]

JUST IN: Famous 9th Cir Judge Jay Bybee (GWBush) pens 64-page opinion on how Constitution's 'domestic violence' clause may block Trump deployment of National Guard in OR. Judge Eric Tung's (Trump) insulting response: 'A great labor producing a mouse.' Doc: www.documentcloud.org/documents/26...

My dream for the post-Trump backlash is that the USA signs the treaty that puts American administrations under the purview of the Hague when it comes to war crimes and crimes against humanity. Yeah, we never signed that treaty. Stephen Miller currently can't be put on trial at the Hague.

We want to speak directly to members of the Military and the Intelligence Community. The American people need you to stand up for our laws and our Constitution. Don’t give up the ship.

NEW: Epstein survivors release the most powerful PSA I have ever seen. Make this go viral so every member of the House of Representatives sees it.

A leader would not have lost eight colleagues tonight. This happened because you let it happen or because you’ve totally lost control of the caucus in one of the most important moments since you’ve been Democratic leader. Either way, it’s on you. You need to step down. We need someone who can lead.

Cowards die many times before their deaths, The valiant never taste of death but once.

The decline isn’t subtle anymore.

Not everyone should run for office, and if they do it doesn't mean they're prepared or they deserve your respect.

People on here yelling "Don't share AI images of the typhoon in Alaska!!!!" and they're right because the real pictures look like this:
