For my very first post here, instead of pointing out the obvious and myriad flaws in putting a r*pist & felon in the White House, I’m going to highlight two things that I can’t recommend highly enough: reading and baking.
So, do read “Rivers of London”, where you’ll run across these cheese puffs.
Today is Baldrick's birthday. Let's hear your cunning plans.

Parking at a hospital in Arkansas this morning, the car in front of me had two bumper stickers.
"Tr*mp Vance"
"Not My Circus Not My Monkeys"

I mean, do you want fascists? 'Cause this is how you get fascists.

It’s a soft bread with a chewy crust. It has turmeric, coriander and lemon zest in it. And brushed with a butter-cream-toasted sugar-coriander-mace mixture.

I’m afraid to click the link in case the rest of the headline is, “…to Reanimate the Corpses as White House Staff”.

The lede for this bad headline:

"John Smith, 32, of Anytown, successfully fell from Big Mount on Thursday, becoming the first to do so without the help of a glide suit or Sherpa team. The celebration was short-lived, however, as he tragically landed in the middle of a local bear breakfast group.”

I’m no mathematician, so feel free to check my work, but if you divide 22,000,000 by 119,000,000 it seems to me the answer is “The Dumbest Cabinet in US History”.

We all remember who else removed “improper ideology” from museums and galleries.

Ted Kotcheff has passed on.

If he's not front and center, sunglasses on, at his own funeral then I will lose the tiny bit of faith I have left in humanity.

The Senate confirmed a guy as the Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff who wore a maga hat with his uniform, and that's all anyone needs to know about him.

I wanted to make lemon curd and post photos of it, but, well… it requires half a dozen egg yolks.

As I can only afford one egg, and had to wrestle a little old lady for it, (whom I am convinced is a former MMA fighter), I could only make 8 of these healthy-looking muffins.
Mais c’est un mensonge! Like DOGE.

Unlike DOGE, they’re good.

Nutella, peanut butter, butterscotch & walnuts.

Brilliant satirical cover from Private Eye, mocking spineless media organisations and journalists who submit and cower in the face of power 👏

For the *ahem* less adventurous people in your life, you can make them chicken soup with the ingredients of a French bouillabaisse, without being all Frenchy.

I just realized why they're trying to get rid of the Polio vaccine! Not just because they're both ignorant and stupid, (though that must be a big part of the cause of their reasoning), but because of FDR. Since he died of complications from Polio, the MAGAs must think it only kills democrats.

Good morning and Happy Tuesday to everyone who wishes the media would grow a spine and learn to interview the lying piece of shit properly the way Barbara Walters did fearlessly back in the day.

She was prepared for his lies and HANDLED him.

Stop sanewashing his crazy bullshit.

So if you know where Ann Frank is hiding, give us a call
Homan: Don’t knowingly harbor and conceal an illegal alien from ice. Because that is a felony. We have one hell of an Attorney General coming in… we're going to have consequences of people who violate the law and try to prevent us from doing our job.

I’ll be in the kitchen, kneading the fuck out of some bread and screaming obscenities, if anyone needs me.

Today, November 25th 2024 is the day we officially learned that justice in America, in fact, does NOT matter. #sad
The moral of the story, kids: It’s fine to try to stop the peaceful transfer of power and incite a mob to storm the Capitol and do all you can to overturn an election as long as you run again and win 🇺🇸

Today, as the republican party fritters away the very last of what is eye-rollingly considered their integrity, I made my first ever apple fritter.

Just heard someone say, in relation to tr*mp voters getting upset about #FAFO, “You can’t be the villain and the victim. Cruella de Vil doesn’t get to look around and say, ‘What happened to all the puppies?’”
