To escape politics, I browsed modern shows from network tv last night; bad choice. Holy shit. 911, Ghosts, that cheerleading sitcom. . . all oversimplified, VERY overacted garbage. Embarrassing. The mugging, the kindergarten-level plots, beating you over the head arcs, ugh. I mean,

Animal Control isn't great, but it's Citizen Kane compared to a lot of other stuff out there. I thought reality tv would make us dumb, but I felt my IQ drop like a stone last night. Modern sitcoms are AWFUL. Even a laugh track is less dumbed down that this schlock. My #get-off-my-lawn take.

Now we're on a break while the magistrate deals with grand jury returns. Neville Hedley for DOJ civil rights division shows up. Magistrate Faruqui: Do you have a return for us? DOJ: It's a non-concurrence, your honor. [AKA a no-bill 😂😅☠️]

Over 2,000 alumni from Vivek’s all-boys catholic high school in Cincinnati have signed and circulated a petition demanding that he pull the ad and issue a public apology for “ignoring the moral responsibilities” of his Jesuit education. I think he’s pretty cooked.

A jewel tone rainbow bloom! I'm quite taken by the green cells; the blow was just hard enough to light some of them up like lanterns. It's very stained glass, and I adore stained glass. 😃#Art #AbstractArt #Painting

Thank you Lekky, I needed that. Nice to hear . . . a little tiny bit of hockey. But I'm going to have to give up and go all radio because I'm trying to clean and basically missing the entire fucking game at this point. #GoAvsGo

Total respect for NBC's Monica Alba, who asked Trump exactly the question he needs to answer. By refusing to answer, and attacking her, he has effectively told the world that no, sexual abuse allegations do no mean a thing to him. Imagine if she wasn't there. We'd be the poorer for it.

😳 WOMAN REPORTER: Do sexual abuse allegations mean nothing to you, sir? TRUMP: Wait. Wait! Wait wait wait. Slow down. Who are you with? REPORTER: NBC, sir. But they are very serious sex abuse allegations TRUMP: Quiet! Isn't she a fresh person? You're a horrible little reporter, aren't you?

Only a total POS would even consider voting for Ramaswamy. These companies take it a step further and put their money behind and bet their futures on Ramiswamy for the win. Disgusting. Expect big updates to the boycott guide pinned to my feed.

Judd Legum@juddlegum.bsky.social

Ramaswamy has produced an attack ad weaponizing the rape of his opponent, Amy Acton, when she was 12 years old. It features Acton’s mother, who abandoned Acton after she was raped by her step-father, fleeing the state with her husband. Here is the corporate money helping fund that ad.

Huge follow-up reporting to my scoop: The Guardian confirmed America Next—the conservative nonprofit founded by Bobby Jindal that was offering students $ to disrupt El-Sayed events—paid a firm registered to Tommy Teepell’s dad Timmy $250k for “canvassing and influencer marketing” against El-Sayed.

I actually guffawed when he told the fireman Glewart was already wet. Also, I had dinner with my right wing aunt last night and interrupted her "Zelenskyy is actually a billionaire living in Florida!" crazy by telling her about this comic, and to my surprise, she also laughed really hard. #Unity

ICE agents broke a U.S. citizen's arm when they intentionally struck him with an unmarked vehicle as he rode his e-bike in Long Beach, California. He screamed in pain as agents tased him twice and handcuffed him on the ground. His injuries are severe. Repost this everywhere!

The Telegraph: Ukraine struck a Russian oil refinery after Zelensky turned on Trump, saying he was “done” with the energy ceasefire. Relations plunged to a new low after Trump struck a deal to buy diesel from Putin & reduced Ukraine’s access to Starlink. #ProudBlue #Pinks #SheShed

#Colorado Renters! I didn't know this, but under new law this year, the landlord may NOT retain security deposit money to clean after normal wear and tear, unless the lease required the tenant to clean or unless the unit was left "substantially less clean" than at the start of the lease. Thx dems!

I really like how this bloom turned out. Indigo with shimmery greens, one a deep hunter green, the other an olive green. With gold lacing because it's my favorite. Done on a wood panel. #Art #AbstractArt #Painting
