This Indigenous Peoples Day please speak up: another typhoon sweeping away homes of Alaska's Natives, who, during settlement (statehood: 1948) were forced to end ways of life (like my Grandma's) involving mobility across regions & stuck them in flood-prone/unstable villages with housing deficits.

I’ll only watch if you have an all-stainless steel industrial restaurant wash station. I want to see you pulling down the hood, steam billowing out, fogging up Zooey Deschanel’s glasses; Joel McHale hitting you with a little spray from the nozzle on flexible metal hose hanging from the ceiling.

Some of those people are currently on the staff of elected Republicans, in fact. They’re part of the present of the GOP.

Q: Politico reported on a group chat of young Republicans. Does this just reflect some bad apples?

HOCHUL: Some bad apples? These are the future of the GOP. This is so vile it's hard to find the words to put into context ... there's gotta be consequences ... this bullshit has to stop.

Unless and until some kind of compelling legal and moral argument is presented as to why this is a legitimate use of deadly force, this is just…mass murder.

What makes you think he’d try to be successful? An 0-17 season and a fired coach contract payout affords a lot of money and time to purchase and paint warhammer figures.

New Mexico Man @newmexicoman.bsky.social · 1d

To be honest, I was disappointed by the lack of chaos. I wanted to see the runner on 2nd pass the runner on 3rd, the runner on 1st nearly to 3rd and cutting across the mound to get back to 1st, two guys getting tagged out standing on 3rd, and the official scorekeeper just walking out of the stadium.

George Stephanopolous did what every anchor and host should have been doing since Bush 2000: Rejecting the bullshit, gaslighting, and rude, evasive filibustering the GOP has perfected to hide their lies.

NO MORE BULLSHIT.
