Tonight, because it’s getting dark earlier, we learned that one of our local raccoons is missing a front limb. Never seen a three-legged raccoon before.

I cannot wear my "CANCEL PIEDMONT" shirt for two blocks in Oakland without having multiple conversations about it. It's like wearing a giant "TU MADRE" t-shirt or something. Unbelievable. Best clothing investment this year. You could print your own with a sharpie and a fruit-o-the-loom.

You know how when you were a kid and you would go with family to the beach and you'd have sandwiches and maybe there'd be a big bag of potato chips, but the food would get sand in it? You can relive the texture of childhood -- Grape Nuts. It's a bowl of nostalgia.

Young cyclist on a single-speed today, who I watched pass me on the left and then attempt the curbside pass on the right of a garbage truck: you’re damned lucky it cost you only shattered carbon and not your life.

Sure, you may have encountered Douglass’s “What, to the slave…”, but I bet that very few youngsters encounter Bristol Lambee’s letter to the Sons of Liberty in (checks date) 1774.

This is what drives me nuts about the media coverage of Trump. He's opened the Strait of Hormuz multiple times and Biden didn't open the strait even once. So why doesn't he get more credit from newsrooms for these successes?

If you can't remember how many times he's opened the strait, just look at a graph of oil futures prices and count the peaks and valleys

Hey, guy buying 8 6-packs of ramen in the Pak-n-Save: I appreciate your trenchant observations about the career of Don Knotts and his avoidance of typecasting, from Mayberry to L.A. in "3's Company". And we must enlighten today's youth about "classic comedy". But you got some bad B.O. Peace out.

I’m gonna have to start posting more shit on here and less over there because my parents are on that platform, and it won’t do to have them see the weird shit. Also, my feed over there is now ruined because algorithms.

It’s Trans Day of Visibility. My trans relatives are wonderful and talented and beautiful. And my daughter won’t be very visible today because she caught a cold, probably when she attended an all-night outdoor rave. Love her anyway.

Too often when discussing trans rights, we’re forced to be on the defensive, as Republicans wage attacks. Today, we take the opportunity to look forward by introducing my Trans Bill of Rights, a comprehensive vision to provide protections for all trans and nonbinary people.

Screenshots of some of the documents found in looted ICE vehicles from one of the livestreams before it got turned "private" on YouTube (after the other one already was). Share widely and make sure the genie can't go back in the bottle.

The moderate voter I am imagining in my head happens to have the exact same beliefs as those espoused by me in my role as Dipshit Emeritus at the Moron Institute for Jackoffs
