That badass kid in the third wants his insult back.

I hope nobody needs to hear this but as Saturday is Halloween, here’s your reminder that if you’re only kind to a child who does not speak when they carry a blue bucket, you are not in fact a kind person. You are not entitled to a stranger’s medical information. Just give them the candy.

*BOLSONARO: FEDERAL POLICE REQUESTED I GIVE THEM MY PASSPORT

My pal Danielle Koenig shared that her father Walter Koenig passed away last night at age 90. A performer whose kindness and warmth shone through the screen. He will be well remembered.

That this is in THE WASHINGTON POST is almost too much irony to bear.

I mean… they’re not wrong. The election in Brazil *was* rigged… against Lula… by US right-wingers. Every accusation is an admission.

After a stunning election victory for President Luiz Inácio Lula da Silva in Brazil, U.S. right-wingers are falling back on an old favorite: baseless claims that the contest was rigged. www.ms.now/news/flavio-...

Everything is Gender: The Final Chapter

Easy - they listen to Matt Yglesias because they like what he says. They either espouse his ideals wholeheartedly or like his popularist stance that absolves them of responsibility for following the will of the majority even when it leads to evil ends.

I suppose I care a bit, but only because some centrists Democrats are still listening to him for some reason. Why do they do that? No idea.

Thirty years ago I was on a high-volume high-aggro mailing list, and when someone lost it like this the tradition was for someone to take the text of the message, alphabetize it, paste it into a reply, and say “these words didn’t appear to be in any particular order so I alphabetized them for you”

BELGRADE, Serbia (AP) — Serbia’s strongman leader Aleksandar Vucic has conceded defeat to a student-led movement in a seismic political shift.

I haven’t slept a full night in three weeks ahead of the polls opening in Brazil today. I might be shouting into a void here, but if you can spare a few seconds to send good energy towards our elections today and for the largest country in South America to beat fascism, please do so. 🇧🇷

checking in on the president of the united states

My girlfriend’s 96-year-old grandmother, still sharp as can be but ailing, braved going out to vote for Lula. She lived under dictatorship and said she wants to die knowing her family will not have to live what she lived. She braved the rain and lack of access to do her part. A legend.

Who’s the “serial fabulist” again, Mr. Ramaswamy? 🤔

This Black MAGA creator says she “cannot believe the disrespect” after being removed from a San Antonio rally hosted by Republican Senate candidate Ken Paxton!?!?! Why would they treat her this way???

seriously what the fuck

Trump on Jon Husted: "I examined his ass"

It helps to understand the germ theory of disease to answer this question. The answer is no.

The monotheism book I helped edit based on the conference I helped organize now has a cover and it looks like preorders are available. It should be released next month. cart.sbl-site.org/books/140377P

BBQ (smoked brisket, sauce) is close to a religion in Texas. In that it is contentious, very profitable & marked by bloody schisms. Edgar Black started selling BBQ from his butcher shop in Lockhart, TX around 1934. It quickly rose to fame, drawing visitors to the small town in Central Texas.

I don’t usually meddle on the writing side of Jeopardy!, but tonight I called in a favor for our Bluesky viewers.

Report: Tim Curry's death to be investigated by suspicious group of eccentrics gathering at his house

kind of wonderful to read all these stories about someone who inspires such an outpouring of joy tbh

She also really debunks the common justifications about religion, region, and age. Your grandparents and parents have shitty values because they have shitty values, not because of anything else. They could do better. Anyone can use their eyes to see the world and have the correct read.

Everyone was someone to Dolly, and she put every person at the same level. To her, fame and fortune were a gift, and whatever she didn’t need she shared. She taught us how to be polite, honest, and powerful at the same time. A legend has left the world.

Dolly Parton and Patti LaBelle playing their acrylics. Two icons.

“if you see someone without a smile, give them one of yours.” — Dolly Parton

Stop making fun of AI or it will spitefully deny your insurance claims. They’re calling it the perfect argument.

Husband, looking through a gauge stretching kit: None of these are small enough to fit. I’m gonna have to stretch it like I’m 16 again! Me: That’s what *she* said. #dadjokes #badjokes

I sincerely wish this were the worst thing I’ve ever seen on the Internet, but no. I was raised on Something Awful and worse. It’s pretty bad, though.

i saw the phrase "over-the-diaper handjob" the other day and now i will leave it here in your mentions, with you
