It's astonishing how much damage upon our world has been inflicted because a handful of very rich guys wanted to be able to fuck underage girls.

There is no higher goal, no lofty ideology--just wanting to bang some teenagers. These guys are monstrous, but they're also so, so pathetic.

Today is a good day to remember, and to say, that the #MeToo movement was right, and was righteous, and has been vindicated over and over again. There was no overreach. There was no excess. There was no they-went-too-far.

So much work remains to be done.

Enough talk about Tucker Kraft. That’s not even in the top 5 reasons.

Just a perfect end to this Packers game. The kicker who can make it is watching at home.

You have a co- worker who makes a LOT of money. Once a month they come into the office, pull out their chair, and then fall into their computer monitor, breaking it. Nothing gets done that day.
Can’t. Even. Line. Up. Millions in salary and they can’t figure out how to sit at their desk for work.

CAN’T.EVEN.GET.LINED.UP
Can’t get lined up. Gameplans and game calling have been a mess. Offense is poorly designed right now and inconsistently called. OL fundamentals are bad. WRs in the wrong spots.

That’s on coaching.
November 11, 2025 at 4:16 AM
Packers can’t even line up correctly. The offense is eating lead paint chips all week and the coach is too busy precision grooming his stupid beard to cone up with a game plan.

If you’ve historically been a “vote blue no matter who” type, it’d be cool if you could use this moment to understand why vilifying leftists who actually do think it matters is basically a psyop you accidentally fell for. This is why people warn you about guys like Newsom.

-Oct 18, more than 7 million Americans stand up and stand together.

-Nov 4, millions of Dems turn out for landslide wins in VA, NJ, NY, CA, GA, many other places.

-Nov 9, eight "Dems" say "Oh, this nice Mike Johnson and Mr. Trump say they care about health. If they don't, well shame on them..."

The model of holding individual senators responsible is broken here. The retirees clearly agreed to take the fall. Which is why the nos should get no credit for voting no unless they move to oust Schumer

Sir, call for new leadership in public or fuck all the way off.
No health care, no deal.

FUCK YOU YOU SIMPERING ASSHOLE.
My statement on the funding deal to reopen government, protect federal employees, and vote to protect health care:
November 10, 2025 at 2:57 AM
Ma’am, respectfully, you can publicly call for new leadership OR YOU CAN FUCK OFF TOO. I have always respected you. Fucking take a stand or go die in a fucking hole with the rest of the old rich assholes running your party.
I will not support a deal that does nothing to make health care more affordable.

We are in a health care emergency. A simple one-year extension of these tax credits would cost less than Donald Trump’s $40 billion bailout for Argentina.

A vote for this bill is a mistake.

Establishment Dems ARE winning. They just aren’t on your team. They don’t play for their constituents. They play for their wealthy donors. Oh, they’ll take your help, your small donor money, and your vote. But that doesn’t put you on their team. They are MAD that Mamdani won and they want you to die
It really looks like the Establishment Dems are afraid of winning. I'm trying to understand that.

Fuck Fetterman forever and fuck me for thinking for one single second he was anything except a bought out asshole.

If they do cave, I am going to have a hard time ever voting D again. Say what you want, these people are corrupt and I don’t want to support the apparatus. It’s bad enough watching the opposition fuck this country, watching the supposed “good guys” do it feels 1000x worse. FUCK your lesser evil.
The average SNAP benefit per month is $177 a person.

The average ACA benefit per month is up to $550 a person.

People want us to hold the line for a reason. This is not a matter of appealing to a base. It’s about people’s lives.

And working people want leaders whose word means something to them.

40 years ago we’d have congressional hearings falsely accusing metal bands of putting backwards messages in their songs that told kids to kill themselves & now we have a planet-killing chatbot that’s all like “bet you won’t commit suicide chickenshit bitch” & the government is like here’s $5 billion

Nearly a quarter-century ago, Dick Cheney personally meddled in a govt report finding that Klamath Basin fish actually need, y’know, water—an act that led directly to the catastrophic salmon die-off in 2002 and thus paved dam removal’s way. Now Dick’s dead and the Klamath lives. Makes ya think.

basically every 2024 truism is dead. Trump did not build a lasting multiracial coalition or turn young men into committed Republicans. You don’t need to cave on trans rights to win. The pundits have nothing left to tell you.
