“oblong” is a great word, isn't it?

oblong, oblong, oblong.

#oblong

Literally ANYONE else posting this would get their bail conditions revoked and would be headed straight to jail until trial.

This is intimidation of witnesses, prosecutors, jurors — and the judge. It’s NOT legal.

Lock. Him. Up.

I think all the time about the reddit guy who was so broken by gendering toilet habits that he spent his life taking uncomfortable dumps.

Look, I’m not claiming to be a culinary wizard…

But one time, I made a package of ramen noodles without dropping the entire seasoning packet into the boiling water.

To get Trump to confess everything on the stand, just ask him this:

“People are saying there must’ve been a secret mastermind of January 6. Who was it? Was it Rudy Giuliani? Was it Steve Bannon? Who was the real mastermind?”

Trump’s desire to brag > Trump’s instinct to survive

If someone gave you $1,000 every single day and you never spent a cent, it would take you 3 years to save a million.

If you wanted to save up a billion, you’d be waiting 2,740 years.

No one needs that much money. Especially when there's people using gofundme for healthcare.

I wish my eyes had the power to make people stop talking about boring stuff.

"Why can't we just agree to disagree on politics?"

My dude.

- Agree to disagree was called pro-choice. You ended it and shoved authoritarian control of women's bodies down our throats.
- Agree to disagree was called LGBTQ inclusion. You banned it from schools, libraries, bathrooms, and the military.
- Agree to disagree was called Black Lives Matter. You mocked it and spat on it and threatened us with violence if we "try that in a small town".
- Agree to disagree was called Democracy. You traitors tried to kill it and install a military coup of your orange god emperor instead.

So no. Apparently, "we" CAN'T agree to disagree. And that's entirely your fault.

"It was a long night for some RW pundits… Which might explain why they were a little cranky this morning. Their hysterics are because indictment is so solid it means that the 2024 election is probably over for Republicans. That's the basis for the anger. (Though four more years of Biden is good for business, unless a vein pops out of one’s forehead, I’m worried about you, Mark Levin!)"

@jd The social media manager for the CBC is andrea.chiu@cbc.ca. I have sent the following email.

Pence is the same damn guy, where, if Donald Trump ends up as the Republican nominee, and if Trump once again were to choose Pence as his running mate, Pence would readily accept.

starting today, kids no longer need work permits to work low paid, often dangerous jobs in Arkansas

“I'm here in Florida. I will tell you there is no round table, no lecture, no invitation we will accept to debate an undeniable fact. There were no redeeming qualities of slavery,” responds VP Kamala Harris to #Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis calling for her to debate him about the state's new education standards.

“Carbon capture is a greenwashing tactic by greedy fossil fuel companies to try and keep their climate-wrecking industry in business. #climatechange

Politicians have fallen for the industry's spin on CCS rather than face the reality that we need a fast and fair phase out of oil and gas.”

I can't wait for HP to develop some new AI bullshit to annoy printer users more. 😭

Printer as a service 😠 Fuck HP 🤡

New in Public Notice: Trump's superseding indictment paints a picture of a ridiculous Mar-a-Lago clown show https://www.publicnotice.co/p/trump-superseding-indictment-crimes-explained

Exactly 75 years ago, President Harry S. Truman repudiated 170 years of officially sanctioned discrimination when he signed Executive Order 9981, calling for desegregation of the U.S. Armed Forces. This event marked the first time a U.S. commander in chief used executive order to implement a civil rights policy, inspiring America to embrace desegregation in the future.

The MCU actually ended after Endgame.

Everything since has just churning through the formula trying to recreate the magic with a hit rate no better than the average movie studio.
