Trump has less than 40% approval and Republicans have convinced themselves you need to pay people to protest his policies

Aaron Rupar @atrupar.com · 2h

Sen. Roger Marshall: "October 18 is when the protest gets here. This will be a Soros paid-for protest for his professional protesters. The agitators show up. We'll have to get the National Guard out. Hopefully it will be peaceful. I doubt it."

I wonder if the Davinos' would bother to take all the magical items and leave Thimble only mostly dead. Feels like she'd be their priority? #CriticalRoleSpoilers

Okay, I know I'm being greedy, and this has literally only just appeared, but now I want a larger version of this figure so that the ox can be articulated and can convert into a smaller robot (Orion POx), and the cart into a base, before both combine. Come on, HasBLOW, why are you taking so long?!?

The ox and cart transformed into an Optimus Prime-looking robot that has some Samurai-like styling.

Welp, AI generated Sora videos are making the rounds and getting MILLIONS of likes and I cannot begin to express how it's more important than ever to have media literacy. It's so real looking now and it's only going to improve, in the worst way.

Aaron Rupar @atrupar.com · 21h

Trump: "I also did a cognitive exam. Which is always very risky because if I didn't do well, you'd be the first to be blaring it and I had a perfect score. And one of the doctors said he's almost never seen a perfect score. I had a perfect score. That made me well good ... not the easiest test."

I’ll add to the sexist point:
-It’s also misogynistic: The implication is that men’s neurotype is connected to their genitals being “intact,” “whole,” and larger, despite RFK’s ultimate point being about Tylenol use for neonates)

Just to be clear, the circumcision “link” to autism RFK announced is:
-Antisemitic
-Anti-Muslim
-Ableist and Neuroableist
-Sexist (implies that women can’t be autistic)
-Rooted in conspiracy theories
-Medically unsound

…I could go on. Like his Tylenol assertion, it’s total BS.
