How lucky she is to watch such a wonderful movie for the very first time. ❤️❤️❤️

Gaby, Haunted Librarian@blackheartwings.bsky.social

Friends, I'm going to watch The Princess Bride for the first time tonight. Tell me something out of context that will only make sense after I've seen the movie and I will report back!

The list of professional degrees from the Trump admin removes the below but includes CHIROPRACTORS AND THEOLOGY. This country is a fucking disaster.

I went and got Botox, which I don’t do often, but the woman at the front just asked if I wanted to tip the MD who did the injections. THE MD.

I remember when I was in the Army, and I got the Swine Flu vaccine. I don’t think it was FDA approved yet even… but nobody complained. Nobody refused. We all just got it and continued living our lives. Weird!

I’m so disgusted that Cuomo did so well. I’d really have loved to think that a SA’er, after everything with Trump, would be disqualifying. But no. It’s not. Even for many women. #nycmayor

Curtis is a good dude, and he deserved so much better. He loves NYC. I’m heartbroken for him. I hope Mamdani finds a role for him.

Zohran Mamdani says on NY1 he didn't get a congratulatory call from either Andrew Cuomo or Eric Adams last night. He says he got a congratulatory call from Curtis Sliwa, though.

Today, the White House Press Secretary told the country that this ridiculous damn ballroom is “the president’s main priority”…not reopening the government, not lowering the cost of groceries, not lowering the cost of housing, not lowering the cost of healthcare….building a ballroom

My dad used to say I’d become more conservative the older I got and the more money I make. I make over a quarter of a million dollars a year now. I’m even more left than I’ve ever been. I think crazy things like kids should have food and healthcare should be free at point of service. 🙃

Imagine thinking people are mad because he won the election. Is it just feigning ignorance? This is a reminder that if not for her father she would be a nobody. It’s also a reminder that NO KINGS is so American that we don’t have hereditary power in this country as a concept….

The furious debate over whether Meghan McCain's seemingly willful stupidity is willful or just stupidity has now ended in a draw

And people really need to get over the whole people’s children much be competent because they were. Especially with rich people, it’s usually the opposite. You have to make it on your own in this country. MERITOCRACY. Or something… bleh

I’m in Rome on vacation and I just saw Charlie Kirk’s gummy face on a fucking billboard here. I wasn’t fast enough to take a picture but—WTFFFFF

The whole point of Constitutional protections is to be secure and not harassed in our homes and daily life by the government. THAT’S THE POINT.

Andrew Weinstein@andrewjweinstein.com

ICE admits that up to 50% of arrests in its Chicago raids are "collateral.” These aren't statistics. They are parents taken from their children, neighbors taken from our communities. When does a "collateral" U.S. citizen child's trauma matter? This isn't law enforcement; it's a campaign of terror.

I got up this morning around 6:30, had a cup of coffee, realized I was still pretty tired, got back in bed and slept until 9:30. Life with ADHD.

The last time the govt shut down was when Trump was in office. It was the longest govt shut down ever and cost the country $5B. It was over that stupid border wall that Trump had promised Mexico was going to pay for. Just thinking about that.

Why do people care about all the crap going on with celebrities? Do you people not have friends? I think there’s something broken within me that gets the ick from following rich people’s crap.

If I was on Comey’s defense team, I’d be sooooo excited about this.

Brad Heath@bradheath.bsky.social

As of this afternoon, not a single career DOJ attorney has entered an appearance in the case against former FBI Director James Comey. Only the newly-appointed U.S. attorney is listed. That's extremely unusual.

It will be used as an excuse for more authoritarianism. 🥲

Allison Gill@muellershewrote.com

Trump is going to blame the judge for what happens in the Comey case. Whether the indictments are thrown out on pre-trial motions, or the jury acquits, Trump is gonna blame the judge.

America.

I was back at 26 Federal Plaza today, where an ICE agent violently threw this bereft woman to the ground in front of her kids. She had not touched him. She did not pose any threat. She had to be taken to the hospital. (🎥: Elias Eliahu)

Hearing somebody say, sincerely, that they love their job is an amazing thing. We all need to earn money in this capitalist hellscape for the time being, but damn if it doesn’t warm my cold black heart to hear somebody actually love their token earning scheme.

“In June, when lenacapavir was approved in the United States… the drug would be marketed as a preventative called Yeztugo at a list price of ✨$28,218.✨ … British researchers have estimated that lenacapavir could be made for as little as $40 per patient per year.” 🙃🙃🙃

That’s really it though, isn’t it? It’s not just @jimmykimmel.com it’s the hundreds of people that make that production possible.

Kimmel: "The President of the United States made it very clear he wants to see me and the hundreds of people who work here fired from our jobs. Our leader celebrates Americans losing their livelihoods because he cannot take a joke."
