When RFK Jr said this there hadn’t been an overtly racist public statement made by a Republican in almost twenty minutes so it came as quite a shock.

RFK: "There's five hundred million Arabs in the world. And yet they don't produce science. They don't win the Nobel Prize. They don't win the Fields Prize. They don't win the Wolf Prize. They don't produce literature."

A serial rapist was elected twice as President, a fact we don't reckon with nearly enough. Now one of two major political parties has been molded in his image, run for and by violent sexual abusers who hate women.

No one will disagree with me when I say that the great cast is one of the main reasons the original Star Trek has endured for so long, and Walter Koenig was terrific as Chekov. My heart goes out to my friend Danielle, his wonderful daughter. Rest In Peace.

In a desperate attempt to raise his poll numbers, and take a stand that the overwhelming majority of Americans agree with, Trump is now claiming he too hates Bill Maher.

Really dig the new doc about my dear friend @mariabamford.bsky.social. Unsurprisingly, every single clip of her comedy is hilarious. And I’m so happy her Late Late Show spot was shown in its entirety. In my opinion, it’s the greatest six-minute late-night stand-up set ever. I love you, Maria.

Bill Maher had lunch with Donald Trump again. It’s beyond belief that someone would so willingly sit down for a meal with such a reprehensible piece of shit. But I’m sure Trump had his reasons.

It’s not the main reason, but one reason republicans are openly racist is because they know the media will never restrict them from their platforms or impose any sort of consequence (the main reason is their hearts are leprous chunks of donkeyshit)

Ilhan Omar@ilhanmn.bsky.social

The pedophile protection party’s president is laundering right-wing conspiracy theories through the most corrupt DOJ in American history. Whenever the news turns bad, this creep reaches for one name: mine. So let’s make it crystal clear. My name has always been Ilhan Omar.

Useful context for this and the other clips @atrupar.com is posting this morning: The president is a rapist.

Aaron Rupar@atrupar.com

😳 WOMAN REPORTER: Do sexual abuse allegations mean nothing to you, sir? TRUMP: Wait. Wait! Wait wait wait. Slow down. Who are you with? REPORTER: NBC, sir. But they are very serious sex abuse allegations TRUMP: Quiet! Isn't she a fresh person? You're a horrible little reporter, aren't you?

Don’t tarnish a person‘s reputation based on only one thing they did. Okay, sure, Amy Acton’s mother is a child-abusing pedophile protector. But that’s not all she is! She also kills kittens. So don’t be so quick to judge.

The live streaming execution is not happening after all because the administration and political party that always sides with pedophiles and rapists does not want to come off as inhumane.

Have no memory of living in a world without Tom Skerritt being in lots and lots of movies and TV shows. He was always, always, always really good in everything he did. Rest In Peace.

What an experience! I so loved working with Steph Cha on this year's Best American, and am so lucky to get to share these 20 stories (and 20 incredible writers) with everyone.

Steph Cha@stephcha.bsky.social

Hey, it’s Best American day! This is my sixth volume as series editor of Best American Mystery and Suspense, and I had the honor of working with my revered friend @meganabbott.bsky.social to select these 20 exceptional stories.

I have two cat carriers. Normally, Billy and Juice Box hang out in them separately. But tonight they decided to squeeze in together and share space in one. For me, it’s next-level awwwww.

I'm reading #GoutCop currently. Very funny like all your other books I've read. And like every moment you were on screen in #MST3K and like all 5 Cinematic Titanic show we went to and the DVDs. And all The Mads Are Back online shows. You get the idea. 💚😂🖖

‘Not an Appealing Quality!’ Democrats on CNN Panel Rip Abdul El-Sayed Over ‘Cockiness’ The same pundits who tell female candidates to "smile more" now tell the Muslim Senate candidate to be more respectful to the white bigot who smears them with lies. #STFU www.mediaite.com/media/news/n...

One time Entertainment Tonight did a segment on MST3K and they had us riff a few minutes from their show. Crow T. Robot on John Tesh: “Look at that head! He’s got a big ole head!” Have to say, Tesh was gracious and a good sport about it.

And Republican Gov candidated Vivek Ramaswamy just release an ad from a woman who stayed with the man who abused her daughter *calling Amy Acton a liar*. It's not just Trump. The entire Republican Party is sick and rotten to the core.

Struggling to engage with the concept of “father and son Republican operatives Timmy and Tommy Teepell.” Come on man can even one thing be like 5% less stupid

“It’s called ‘The Diplomat,’ and I promise you, every episode will be packed start to finish with a shit-ton of diplomacy!” If I were the head of Netflix I’m not sure I would respond enthusiastically to this pitch, but damn, what a terrific show.
