I hate getting texts pestering me to vote early. I vote on Election Day because: Early voting location = 15 minute drive Election Day polling place = 10 minute walk

Trying to redeem my DC Universe Infinite Ultra free gift from @dc.com , but even though I'm signed in it says "We're sorry, an active Ultra Annual subscription is required. Sign into your account at DC Universe Infinite to upgrade" and I can't complete my order.

I emailed Patrick Healy, assistant managing editor for standards and trust at NYT, to ask why their story about a House report with new details of rape allegations against the President of the United States included neither those details, nor a single use of the word "rape." archive.is/1s9AM

i am inviting anyone from a legacy media organization to explain to me why the house judiciary dems report on trump’s epstein’s ties and multiple allegations of rape isn’t worthy of extensively reporting on. i’m serious. i want to understand.

I know there's a lot going on but I feel it should probably be more of an above-the-fold story that members of Congress released a thoroughly documented report directly accusing the president of the United States of being a serial rapist.

The funny thing is that I legitimately *have* cut back on my doll purchasing budget. I mean, you don't see the Hot Toys Artisan Editions in my Black Widow figure collection.

Trump's solution to affordability? Cut back on your doll purchasing budget. As if people are blowing their budgets on dolls. We need a Congress that will put an end to Trump's tariffs and actually work to LOWER prices for the American people.

I initially thought this was a SANDMAN MYSTERY THEATER cover.

I got to see this really interesting, wonderful documentary on the brilliant Bea Arthur today. Thank you filmmaker @dancindanw Find info on IG - beaarthurdoc

Since it's plumbing repair weekend, apparently, I decided to deal with the leaky downstairs toilet. I'm hoping that just replacing the valve seal does the trick, but only time will tell if I hear it randomly refilling itself, but given that this is what the old seal looks like, I'm hopeful.

Well, normally it would have had to refill itself a couple of times in the past few hours and the tank was still full just now, so I guess that's a win.

Trying to figure out why my hips hurt today then remembering that I spent a bunch of time lying on my sides on the kitchen floor yesterday.

shitload of P-traps lying around from various attempts at putting in replacements on other sinks in the house, so I figured I probably had what I needed to do it on hand. I did it today. All it took was some sanity, the use of a hacksaw, some blood - not from the hacksaw - and a lot of swearing.

Replying to @zeddary.bsky.social

they're really trying to get mileage out of this lmao no people LOVE that he demolished a third of the White House and salted the earth of Jackie Kennedy's rose garden so billionaires could bribe him with the cavernous Temu-ass Versailles orgy den of his dreams.

I hate this phenomenon from the perspective of "Stop giving him ideas." Reporters ask him because they know he'll give them an answer like this which they can write about. Easy layup. Meanwhile, it probably never would have occurred to him to eat the baby. But now that you mention it...

the grossest thing in the world has been the way antisemitism got mainstreamed through a delightful wombo combo of right wingers doing it and...what I can only describe as credulous dipshits going, "Well, the genocide in gaza is bad so I guess antisemitism must be right?"

This is one of the larger left-of-center Facebook pages, and I do feel like a few years ago, left-of-center people on social media with large audiences were not using terms like “goyslop”?

(Spend 15 minutes lying on the floor with my neck massager traction thingie. Come back to 30+ notifications.) Me: The hell? Me: ...wait, did Gail repost my 1-800-GAIL-BEAR post? (Yes)
