OK fundraisers. I don't care how candidate close you are. Today, texts and emails stop getting "Delete" and start getting "Delete and Report Junk". All_of_them. Every test, fake poll that ends with a request for money, email, all of them. The dice are thrown. See you in two years.

Please share this information widely! If your registration is purged from the Virginia voter rolls, you can still cast a provisional ballot and complete same-day registration.

I'm just going to throw this out into the ether. A sad day for a boat owner at the fuel dock. The FD had to commandeer a boat to help out. I think the juxtaposition is kind of interesting.

Oh that triggers a memory.

Not enough room in alt text for the last line.

If saving these programs means I'm out $22.36 a year, I'm good. Now give me back the $575 I pay to keep the war machine running and the $368 I pay in corporate welfare to big oil and walmart.

“JD Vance fucks couches” has officially outlasted the attempted assassination of a former President in the popular news cycle. It has a chance to actually stick in the minds of Americans more come Election Day.

History books in the future are going to be so fucking weird (complimentary).

Casual reminder to make sure you're still registered to vote before Election Day. There are groups trying to prevent you from doing that. Check now and don't be surprised in November.

I don't want some egghead bureaucrat telling me whether there's poison in the water I drink. Ideally I'd want that decided by a 29yo judge who went to a "biblical law school" and does not believe dinosaurs existed, and then to have that decision reaffirmed six years later by the Supreme Court.

Note well, "Luca" and "Turning Red" were the Pixar movies (along with "Soul") that were released directly to Disney+ during the pandemic. Luca was the #1 streamed movie of 2021; Turning Red was the #2 streamed movie of 2022. That seems pretty universal. (Soul also streamed well + 2 Oscars.)
Just fold the studio into Disney and kill it already. Make Toy Story sequels till the sun fucking burns out. Love how this shift conveniently happened when more woman/POC were really pushing to direct their own stories. Defining their experiences as not "universal" is saying the quiet part aloud.
