"Local Nimbys move nearly onto a University campus and bitch about stadium noise on football game days". Insufferable fucks are the bread and butter of CH/C'borro.

Blog bloggers heard the PA system from Kenan Stadium during last night’s football game throughout Carrboro and Chapel Hill, and Reddit reports we weren’t the only ones.

The GOP led Legislature in NC doesn't give one shit about what the people of NC want. Vote them all out. Have some damned self-respect, People of NC.

January can't come quickly enough for me. It's past time that we can stop hearing from this sumbitch. Tho the word on the street is he plans to run for Governor of NC. I suspect that will go badly for him. It's time for him to hide behind the gates of Lake Lure until they carry him out toes first

You can't, like "try" to kill endangered species when developing and logging, but you don't have to try not to. That's swell. Fuckers

Now that we are in the throes of The Great Fuckening The Onion has shelved satire and is going with the straight dope.

“A sweep by intelligence officials has revealed that Mrs. Trump is in fact an espionage tool deployed by Russia to record President Trump while blending in seamlessly among his inner circle,” said NSA director Joshua Rudd

The Empire is burning and I'm watching NHL with my kid and my friends' kids and loving that a bunch of 80s hippies & Punks and Art weirdos and Engineering dorks raised some solid, kind, sarcastic, kinda filthy-mouthed, folks who aren't going to let the motherfuckers win.The kids really are alright

In North Carolina I can wager on war crimes but it's illegal for me to put two dollars on Great White to win the Derby today.

Think I've written this story each of the last three years. Yes, sports betting is legal in North Carolina. No, you can't bet on Saturday's Kentucky Derby. (CC: @lukedecock.bsky.social) www.wral.com/sports/sport...

Attention Governor Andy in Kentucky. There is no "reconciling" with these motherfuckers so change your tune or get the idea of being POTUS out of your head.

Kevin M. Kruse@kevinmkruse.bsky.social

If there are any Democrats who are thinking of running for the presidency on 2028 on anything less than a clear agenda of widespread prosecution for this administration's corruption and fundamental structural changes to ensure it can't happen again, they should just stop right there.

How do you get 2000 dead paratroopers?

Aaron Rupar@atrupar.com

Q: The Pentagon is supposedly dispatching 2,000 troops. How is that not boots on the ground? And you said we're not at war. How is that not an escalation of war in Iran? MIKE JOHNSON: Look, I think it sends a signal to Iran that they better get their act together. Operation Epic Fury is almost done

Every accusation is a confession with these fuckers

Bessent: "The regime is in trouble. I said last week that they're in Hitler's bunker and Hitler is dead. Well I can tell you, as of this week, Himmer and Göring are dead too. All these rocket launches you see are the death throes of a dying regime."

This kind of shit is exactly why we need a moratorium on dudes deciding stuff.

I'll admit it: I was genuinely a guy who, when murphy vs ncaa was decided, thought sports betting legalization would be basically fine and not cause any major problems and I was wrong about it.

I just found 3 dozen unfrosted sugar cookies that I forgot I made. I also have a quart of frosting for them in the 'fridge. Y'all have fun with your Dry January and new fitness regime. I'll be over here eating sugary delights and washing them down with the good Bourbon.

Elizabeth Warren on people who say Dems needs to tone down their rhetoric: "Oh, please. Why don't you start with the president of the United States? And every ugly meme he's posted and every ugly word."

I think it's good that all the big names in conservative government are combining ill-fitting suits and loose ties with stunts where they wave around live power tools. I think they should do it more and in increasingly small venues, prefably so rural they're far from ambulances.

Senator Thom Tillis is a loathsome pile of steaming offal.

Amy Siskind@amysiskind.com

Sen. Tillis assured Hegseth’s former sister-in-law her sworn statement could sway GOP senators to oppose his confirmation. Tillis cast the deciding yes vote, per WSJ. What a PoS!

I'm drinking Manhattans out of the Deco-glassware and eating peanut butter & Thai chilis on water crackers because I'm a grownup, and I do what I want. Most everything about being grown kinda sux, but this snack in front of a toasty fire is a fine respite from the fuckery. Find your joy, Friends.

In the wake of January 6, there was a thing January 6 researchers liked to say: the insurrection is ongoing. The response from many online was—oh, how droll, how arch, how emptily provocative. But we meant it. We were dead serious. Now we see that his pardons were part of a continued insurrection.

The Atlantic@theatlantic.com

The most important part of Trump’s January 6 pardons isn’t specifically who is released from prison, but the meaning of the gesture: “Radical militias are free to act with impunity—as long as they’re loyal to Trump,” writes @alibreland.bsky.social. theatln.tc/HPRaVHMR

NC is preparing to toss 60,000 votes from registered eligible voters because the GOP's candidate can't handle the fact that he lost his race for the State Supreme Court. My kid is on the list. He registered at 18, voted in '22, and voted this time at the BOE with a BOE-issued ID. The NCGOP is filth

I'm going to need politicians to STFU about the public being "insensitive and ghoulish" in our reaction to UHC's CEO getting snuffed if they happen to be among those who autographed BOMBS that murdered Palestinians. We see the ghouls, and it ain't us.

Pure comedy. I didn't expect Trump to take credit for what's happening *quite this quickly,* but there it is already! (Also, the border isn't being "effectively closed," but whatever.)

Greg Sargent@gregsargent.bsky.social

Trump's scam is designed to create the illusion that his fearsome threats are needed to get Mexico to act. Bank on this: Once he's in office, he will credit his threat of tariffs for getting Mexico's cooperation, even though it's already happening. 5/5 newrepublic.com/article/1888...

"Aren't you a little old to be running around without a bra?" was the question from a prude woman as I pumped gas. I swear people are ridiculous. I was clearly standing still. I haven't run anywhere in a decade. And fwiw, I AM too old to give a shit about foundation garments.

If you find out Nazis are marching through your town and you do not amass a group of folks with Louisville Sluggers with which to handle that shit you are part of the problem A few years ago, the Klan announced a parade in NC. Thousands left offices and homes to confront them. The kkk didn't show.
