Alex Haley grew up in Tennessee. He traced his family tree back to his original enslaved, African ancestor, then wrote 'Roots'. He received a Pulitzer Prize for it. Knoxville just banned it 'cause it might make white kids sad.

I want one of those plushie weasels

Have you ever noticed that when a 20-odd, 30-odd, or 40-odd year old Republican male does something heinous, they are "just kids?" No. They are heinous, evil adults.

Rain is coming.

John Candy was one of the most beloved comedic actors of his time, with starring roles in Planes, Trains and Automobiles and Uncle Buck. His life and work are celebrated in a new Amazon Prime documentary by Colin Hanks, John Candy: I Like Me. n.pr/3KNzxWq

Yes, this is a great documentary about an interesting, complicated artist.

Jimmy Kimmel isn't returning to the airwaves because of "thoughtful conversations" with Disney executives. He's back because consumers sent Disney a clear message: selling out our fundamental rights is not an acceptable cost of doing business.

Ha!

When the most powerful man in the world goes about the place spreading very dangerous nonsense about paracetamol and vaccines, millions of people will sit up and listen. It's consequence free for him but this is going to kill a lot of kids and make a lot more children very ill indeed.

Look at that beautiful blue sky! ⏰☠️ Wake Up Dead Man, the new Benoit Blanc mystery. Thanksgiving in theaters, 12/12 on Netflix. More to come very soon…

Republican governors have sent National Guard troops to Democratic-led Washington, D.C., even though cities in their states all have higher rates of violent crime than the nation’s capital. www.nytimes.com/2025/09/01/u...

something something two weeks tremendous never seen anything like it huge many people saying

A wonderfully delightful scene. Made me so happy.

Whether it's conservatives assassinating State Senators in Minnesota or liberals refusing to sell Alan Dershowitz pierogis in Martha's Vineyard, both sides have taken incivility to an extreme.

Trump could give Ghislaine Maxwell a pardon on his last day in office exchange for favorable testimony now (SCOTUS has already said he can’t be prosecuted for it). She knows he’s her only chance for release. That means any “new” testimony she offers is inherently unreliable unless backed by evidence

What all was supposed to happen on Day One?

Congratulations to @marthawells.com and the crew of #Murderbot on the great news of a Season 2!

This eternal dipshit.

Yes, I agree — it would be terrible. Please do NOT share this information!!!

Wow: ICE Has Deported at Least 70 U.S. Citizens

"Netanyahu finds Trump easily manipulated." No shit, Sherlock.

What better way to observe the end of slavery than a rich old white man yelling to work harder.

I hear you.

The at home assassination of a state lawmaker should be getting a bigger reaction from the President than someone throwing a rock at a Tesla dealership.

It's only three hours until #Murderbot time! My current favorite show.

ICE looking more and more like the American Gestpo.

NOTE TO MY FELLOW AMERICANS: Regime change starts at home.

There's a fledgling red-tailed hawk screaming its head off in a nearby pine tree. Loud little guy.

A well-organized, peaceful event. The mayor spoke. Everyone was respectful. This is what democracy looks like.

At the No Kings peaceful protest in Pasadena. Thrilled to see so many seniors out on the street.

Trump’s go-to line about every foreign policy crisis and war - from Russia’s invasion of Ukraine, to October 7th, to the Israel’s devastation of Gaza - was “It would never have happened if I was president.” Welp.

The president is 21 points underwater and the economy hasn't gone south yet

Kristi Noem doesn't choose our local representatives for us. That will not stand.

This is Kristi Noem admitting that Homeland Security is currently occupying Los Angeles, not to protect citizens, but for purely *political* reasons. Yes, she really is that stupid.

At least there's some good news today.

That's the ghastly new look being modeled by JD Vance.

Newsom DESTROYED Tommy Tuberville, who said: "LA looks like a third world country. Lock him up." Newsom replied, "Alabama has 3 times the homicide rate of California. Its murder rate is ranked third in the entire country. Stick to football, bro."

ChatGPT is down but The Museum of English Rural Life still stands, proving once again that Silicon Valley cannot compete with the history of rural England and its people.

Dear Don the Con: All I can say is that isn't much of a riot in Los Angeles when a celebration in Kentucky - after UK won the NCAA - was actually more violent. www.youtube.com/watch?v=kZn-...
