All I want for Christmas is an obituary notice for Donald Trump choking to death on a dildo carved from a single giant crystal of capsaicin.

My Christmas wishes for Trump and every single one of his supporters.

I mean yeah it’s an authoritarian takeover but can we take some comfort in the fact that the people doing it are INSANELY stupid?

Let’s make this thing go viral.

Casual reminder that the myth of “pulling yourself up by your bootstraps” is a cruel hoax designed to convince poor people from all walks of life that the injustices they face are a result of their own actions, rather than an oppressive system rigged against them.

Jewish conservatives discovering that MAGA is not their friend is the Hallmark Christmas movie we didn't know we needed.

And they didn't even have to shoot it in Vancouver!

And he had a chance to walk it back. He is either the worst excuse for a human being ever to sit in the Oval Office or a pathetic senile wreck. Or both. Both.
Q: A number of Republicans have denounced your statement on Rob Reiner. Do you stand by it?

TRUMP: Well, I wasn't a fan of his at all. He was a deranged person as far as Trump is concerned.

What an incredibly small, weak, and pathetic individual. And we are increasingly a small, pathetic and weak nation for allowing him to continue as president.
utterly incapable of grace

Unfortunately the continuing stream of lies from the federal government makes me extremely skeptical that there is any truth here or in anything any federal law enforcement official says about anything.
I’m finding it increasingly hard to report anything delivered by “official sources” in the US. Could be true, could be a coverup, could be completely made up for nefarious ends.

It’s a country now where no one really has any idea what’s actually going on.

In a dark time, calling out the people who help is vital as well as therapeutic. People like this help us hang on to hope for a better future.
One of the photos of the year.

Jackson Doolan, a lifeguard at Tamarama beach, Sydney, runs barefoot TOWARDS the gunfire at Bondi Beach, carrying medical equipment.

Just one of many extraordinary acts of heroism yesterday (Dec 14).

The photo was captured by local resident, Alexandra Ching.

Ahmed al Ahmed, a Lebanese Muslim who owns a Sydney fruit shop, risked his life to disarm one of the Bondi Beach shooters.

His courage gives me hope amidst the horror and darkness. Muslims and Jews are not enemies. Our futures, in the Middle East and beyond, are intrinsically bound.

A true hero.

We live in the stupidest timeline
Mike Benz, who does not know which finger is his pinky, is now a "special government employee" at USAID, where he is attempting to investigate its "pernicious influence."

You'd think this guy would be too dumb even for the Trump regime. Nope!!!

Another sign of the ongoing collapse of the America we were promised. This should not be necessary in the "richest country in the history of civilization." newrepublic.com/article/2040...
Firewood Banks Aren’t Inspiring. They’re a Sign of Collapse.
Rural communities are banding together to chop firewood so that people in need can heat their homes. This shouldn’t be necessary.
