I watched a Christmas movie for the first time in decades. Spirited. Not bad.

A no good, very terrible bad thing happened yesterday. My 14 yo grandson brought his 15 almost 16 yo girlfriend to my mom's and friends? I caught them holding hands. How did tiny man get to be so grown?

Gambia is a hard block. I live in the US. Even before we got a HARD pass on a 23 and me verified lady POTUS? I gave zero FORNICATIONS. Psst.. tell your friend they worry about nonsense.

There is a 90 minute Eminem concert on YouTube in case ya'll are into that and burned 3 vacation days and are in need of a soundtrack to bake/drink at 2am.

Ukrainian boxing legend (and brother of Kyiv's mayor) Wladimir Klitschko responds to Joe Rogan...

NEW: Porsha Ngumezi is the fifth case we've reported on in which a woman died after not receiving a D&C or its second-trimester equivalent in time, or at all. Her case raises questions about how abortion bans are pressuring doctors to avoid standard care even in straightforward miscarriages.

😂😂😂😂😂😂

I am grocery shopping for non perishables like a loon. My spouse thinks I am crazy but when dairy and fresh produce become luxury items my pantry stocking will ease the budgetary nightmare I fear is coming.

PARDON HUNTER. 🙏

For a guy that supposedly knew nothing about Project 2025, he sure is putting a metric shit ton of them in his administration.

NBC News confirms: Matt Gaetz paid two women for sex while he was a member of the House, the women's attorney told NBC News. nbcnews.com/politics/pol...

Rocha: I also don't think Gaetz doesn't get it because of a sex scandal. I think Gaetz specifically doesn't get this because he's an asshole to people and people in the Senate don’t like him.

They are offsetting the cost of lower taxes for billionaires by slashing programs for the most needy. So much for Christian charity toward the poor.

My family has given up on Christmas. It is an exchange of cards with gift cards or cash stuffed in the envelope. This year my cash collection is going to be spent at Aldi's to try to ride out the inflation that is coming for my grocery bill.

This is a proposed law targeting exactly one person: Incoming trans Congresswoman Sarah McBride of Delaware. Nancy Mace is a transphobic, hateful troll who voted with teen rapist Matt Gaetz to depose her own party’s speaker, but the bathrooms. That’s where she’s focused.

This is Fred. He just found out he can chew his own ear. There aren't actually any rules against it, he checked. 12/10

As news of Mace’s bill floods Twitter, Sarah McBride, who is set to become the first Trans woman in Congress, just tweeted this.

“He seemed interested in finding common ground with Democrats." This is a lie about Donald Trump that Joe and Mika uttered in their morning show, as if to justify their kowtowing. Appalling.

Gaetz is rapist and a criminal and he cannot be our Attorney General.

We should be “highlighting—while still possible—the remarkable accomplishments of the massive infrastructure law and what’s possible when a president is committed to improving the country and the lives of the people who inhabit it.” www.americaamerica.news/p/snapshot-b...

Clowns maybe entertaining, but they should never be put in charge of anything. My latest on Trumps clown car cabinet: adamkinzinger.substack.com/p/trump-pack...

I wrote about being more focused covering trump’s second administration in @vanityfair.com www.vanityfair.com/news/story/d...

President-elect Donald Trump’s defense secretary pick, Pete Hegseth, paid a woman who accused him of sexual assault in a settlement agreement that included a confidentiality clause, according to Hegseth’s attorney.

If you live in a red state, call your senator. Find their number here and tell them to vote no on these nominations. www.senate.gov/senators/sen...

Can we push for Pete Buttigieg to be our chief communicator about what's happening, what's at stake and how to respond? Daily updates about the unfolding crisis to inform the public?

Telehealth providers say requests for the pills have spiked since the election. Patients and doctors worry what a Trump presidency could mean for medical abortion and emergency contraception.

When Obama nominated Tom Daschle -- a congressional leader with three decades of experience working on federal health care policies -- to be HHS secretary, the senator had to withdraw because a donor provided him with a car. If only he'd beheaded a whale! www.theguardian.com/world/2009/f...

We have to remember that, traditionally, an incoming administration awards the various constituencies that got it elected with some sort of representation. So the tech bros get Elon, anti-vax freaks get RFK Jr, dog killers get Noem, white nationalists get Hegseth, pedophiles get Gaetz...

Hopefully the people who run this platform fully understand the many reasons why a mass exodus of people has fled toxic X, and will do their best to ensure this place never becomes anything like that.

The excellent @snellarthur.bsky.social on Trump's latest appointments. Two extraordinary paragraphs that barely seem possible open.substack.com/pub/arthursn...

My favorite thing about this site so far? It isn't full of people who just engage in social media for the sole purpose of instigating a negative response.

I don't think confirmations will be required. It puts the lotion on its skin or it gets the hose again. The GOP is in charge of everything and any bullshit rationale will be accepted. SCOTUS? I just peed myself laughing.

Trump extracted the promise from all three candidates for Senate Majority Leader to allow recess appointments as needed, before unveiling his clown car of nazis and sexual predators and lunatics. The majority opted for the least Trump-dependent option, Thune, though he did agree. We'll see.
