My amazing uncle and my incredible sister (sister in law technically but she was my sister as far we’re concerned) both passed away around this time of year. And I miss them a lot.

This is going to be so bad.

I’m also looking forward to the “no reading comprehension” crowd explaining Odysseus to the internet again.

Y'all. I've never even seen let alone done coke*, and even I can tell he's probably on coke.

*yes, I am in addiction recovery and I've never seen or done coke. what can I say, I'm a fucking unicorn. :-)
yeah I mean it’s genuinely sad that the “reasonable old school” Republican (who Dems eagerly and unanimously voted to confirm) is out here doing pressers blatantly geeked out coke and it’s not subtle

I count 10 cities in 2025 that are on track to have the fewest murders since at least 1970. Newark is on pace to have the fewest murders since 1956 (though only have data through Oct this year) and San Francisco is on pace to have the fewest murders since 1942.

Bring it on
Trump’s vow to retaliate against Colorado puts Rs here in a tight spot as Trump targets everything from disaster aid to science funding.

Colorado Rs, from the establishment class to ultra MAGA, are now echoing a potentially tough sell to Coloradans: Colorado deserves punishment.

This is the way.
Worth repeating this with every new Epstein document drop. The party of Denny Hastert is the party of Jim Jordan is the party of Matt Gaetz is the party of Donald Trump. Looking the other way and protecting child predators from the law is their brand.

look at how little effort it takes for someone on the conservative grievance circuit to destroy a life

millions of college kids have half assed an assignment at the last minute, you eat the F and move on

but the effort to push trans people out of public life will use whatever it can get
Worth noting that the student admits that she just threw the thing together in 30 minutes without reading the paper she was supposed to be responding to.

Guards began beating him. Beat him until he bled. Knocked his face into the wall, broke all his teeth. No access to outdoors, no contact with relatives.

Now describing US knowledge of CECOT's torture practices, followed by footage of Trump praising those practices.

This is good. Watch the one before it first. I’d never heard of this thing but it doesn’t surprise. Coupon sites have always been data mining operations.

affiliate marketing has been a vipers nest in the sewer forever. This is a whole new low.

“The Supreme Court decided not to have a Christmas party for 12 straight years because the justices couldn’t agree on whether to invite the Court’s Black employees” is about as tidy an encapsulation of the Supreme Court’s whole deal as I can think of
The Alarmingly Racist History of the Supreme Court’s Canceled 1947 Christmas Party
The Court held its first-ever office Christmas party in 1946. The following year, the clerks suggested inviting Black employees. It did not go over well.
