The Ramaswamy ad has pushed the largest newspaper in Ohio, the Cleveland Plain Dealer, to reverse its position on endorsements. "A candidate who uses childhood sexual abuse as a weapon against the person who endured it has crossed a line that Ohioans should defend, whatever their party."

Sadness…

every racist shit a brick when Obama dared to President While Black. of course, they couldn't *say* that, so they had to pretend that everything was a scandal — and the racists are back with a new one. thank you for your attention to today's post, in which I explain. link is here: bit.ly/3UkziY1

Oh, honey . . . your own mother shipped you off to a reform school (with cute little military costumes) after you were caught throwing rocks into a baby carriage and she realized you were too twisted to deal with.

You worked hard, built this country, and played by the rules. When you hit 65, Medicare should cover everything except elective surgery… Respect our retirees and honor the promise to our workers!

“…reading books is active resistance" READ A GODDAM BOOK!

I thought he was going to drain the swamp?

DIRTY MOTHER FUCKER JUST LIKE HIS JAIL BIRD DADDY.

Not an exaggeration to say that elections in the next twelve days will have a huge effect on how many trees survive on our planet, and what its atmosphere is composed of. billmckibben.substack.com/p/elections-...

The grifting is off the charts.

The easiest way to get a big scoop in journalism is to straight-up steal it from @marisakabas.bsky.social, as we've seen over and over from "respectable" outlets.

A banger from HCR.

Letters from an American October 18, 2026 Full letter available here: https://heathercoxrichardson.substack.com/p/october-18-2026 @hcrichardson.bsky.social

Happy 4th anniversary to the night in Svalbard when my phone took this unedited photo of a giant lunar halo over the glaciers of Svalbard to which the only response was to fall into hysterical laughter, serially taken up by each shipmate, how else to respond to such outlandish, annihilating beauty

Woof, indeed.

Barack Obama just delivered a blistering rebuke of Trump's actions against Ilhan Omar. This is worth reading in full.

Great catch by @markjacob.bsky.social. If Jan Crawford really thinks Tommy won this exchange with El-Sayed then it shouldn't be hard for her to answer this simple question.

Surprise, surprise.

I have an idea! How about if everyone stopped using Meta products! And TikTok, too! Life, honestly, is great without them.

“I was brutally attacked by 50 masked men… they just kept kicking me and kicking me…” Jewish @washingtonpost journalist Heidi Levine describes getting attacked and robbed by West Bank Israeli terrorists (backed by the IDF & 🇺🇸 taxpayers)

Four extraordinary women. Four brilliant minds. Four trailblazers. And every single one of them PASSED THE BAR.

Winner.

“Today I was brutally attacked by … at least 50 masked men and slingshots …. “I was attacked, pushed to the ground. … Luckily I had my flak jacket and helmet; otherwise I probably wouldn't even be here because they kept kicking me and kicking me, probably like 50 times.”

Why does this make me think of that creepy HBO show, what is it called….

If this doesn’t make your blood boil…

When Grammy-winning musician Rhiannon Giddens begins playing “Old Corn Liquor,” a traditional Black American folk tune, acclaimed Chinese pipa virtuoso Wu Man recognizes similarities to Chinese pentatonic music and spontaneously joins in. The joy on their faces says it all.

Oh, and the boss who charged her for theft was harassing her. Gee, could all of this stem from her refusing his advances?

A well behaved Library Bear.

This is grace, agape, empathy in action.

I think this is actually the point. But the ramifications of this, in addition to Stephen Miller’s desire to remove “100,000,000” people from the US (everyone with a hint of darker melanin?) is to choke the government of income. If there are fewer people, there are fewer taxpayers. Why do that?
