whether it's "haitians eat cats" or "somalis are doing money laundering," the guys who want to repeal all food standards and get taxpayer backing for their personal cryptocurrencies are ON IT
Trump guys are about to Comet Pizza every third daycare center because they think they are all fronts for Somali money laundering. They're only doing this near cities with progressive mayors. This is straight up Government by LibsOfTikTok.

It’s the “season of love and giving”…but this year, doesn’t it seem more like a “season of fear and taking”? Like many of you, I’ve been saddened by the human impact of draconian government budget cuts and how angry many housed Americans are at unhoused Americans.

Always check things twice before you click. I just needed a new suit quickly for my big presentation at work and bought this without double-checking. Everyone laughed at me!

If you're a Democrat with 2028 aspirations, one of the biggest reasons Obama won the nomination was because of his documented record of opposing what anyone with common sense could tell was going to be a disastrous war, I Am Just Saying

the president should be a person we can go a few days in a row without thinking about. our brains simply weren't made to think about a president every waking hour. it's unnatural.

The Die Hard is a Xmas movie or not convo is played out. I have a new one: Is Leonard Cohen's "Hallelujah" a Xmas song? The answer of course is absolutely not, but that didn't stop me from hearing it playing in a store between other definite Xmas carols. (No, of course it wasn't the orig. version.)

There's a Justice League storyline where the Martian Manhunter uses his mental powers to defeat a rampaging Despero by tricking him into thinking he had killed everyone on Earth, making him finally give up his rage and turn into a fetus. I think about this a lot lately (not the fetus part).

Once in a century political opportunity here, if only there were a party to claim it
"According to the…annual Harris Poll, for the 1st time, a majority of Americans believe billionaires are a threat to democracy. A remarkable 71% believe there should be a wealth tax. A majority believe there should be a cap on how much wealth a person can accumulate." www.nytimes.com/2025/12/14/o...

Rob Reiner was an acclaimed actor & director but he was also a vocal critic of Trump
He warned the American public that they only had a year to save their democracy
That year is almost up

a good thread. been curious how the minor US 'classic rock' canon came together--Springsteen, the Eagles, the Kinks' "Father Xmas," Greg Lake etc: all cut around the same time & inescapable on radio (still, i think). over the yrs "2000 Miles" and "Fairytale of NY' have joined it. Xmas Wrapping too
I think it's actually down to the way in the 1960s Britain caught on to American culture at a bit of a time-lag, plus the breakup of the Beatles. I shall explain in a thread.
I wonder how much of this difference comes from American Christmas being rooted in German culture?
