I'm guessing that when the local cats cruise their cat trees and cat tubes, they see themselves just like that Mirri...

Those media bias sites don't know the difference between snark and bias. Wonkette shreds the Nazi Party seven ways til Sunday, but every single article has all the linkies to all the "mainstream" media to back their shit up.

Y'all know how to cite your sources.

I'm a man of a certain age (meaning I'm freaking old) and find it disorienting when serious political discourse appears in a magazine with "Teen" in it's title. Shouldn't they be gushing about Boy For Now and what the mean girls said

DICK SALAD available now in a movie called "Addicted to Fresno" starring Judy Greer, Natasha Lyonne, and lots of other familiar faces. Not a new movie, but it was new to me last night.

Lots of purple dildos and lots of other nonsense. Don't watch while eating.

"For now, at least, the U.S. economy appears to be in solid shape. The government on Thursday left alone its estimate for the U.S. economy’s performance during the last three months of 2024, though it raised its estimate for a measure of inflation during the quarter.

A separate report said more U.S. workers applied for unemployment benefits last week. While the number is at a three-month high, it’s still nowhere close to where it’s been in past recessions."

Why is anyone even still on Instagram? Why are you freely handing your personal data over to one of the fascist-adjacent tech bros? The only social media I'm still on is LinkedIn, and I've been posting there that the days of "No politics at work" are over. I work for one of those elite lib'rul universities they want to kill. There are EOs and bills in congress that will yank 35% of our budget. I'll probably be unemployed in 2026. Politics is work.

JD Vance being a weird prick (from HuffPost updates):

"Zelenskyy, Vance, Trump Get Into Heated Discussion During Oval Office Meeting

President Donald Trump, Vice President JD Vance and Ukrainian President got into a heated conversation during a meeting in the Oval Office on Friday.

"You're in no position to dictate what we're going to feel," Trump told Zelenskyy.

"You're right now not in a very good position," Trump added, telling the Ukranian leader he's "gambling with World War III" and "what you're doing is disrespectful" to the United States.

Vance lectured Zelenskyy, who had challenged him to visit Ukraine.

"I think it's disrespectful to come into the Oval Office and try to litigate this in front of the American media," Vance said, also asking, "Have you said thank you once?""

From NPR:

"The significance of this meeting is that it's happening at all," says Serhii Fursa, deputy director of Ukrainian investment firm Dragon Capital, who has been following the minerals deal closely. "I do not think President Zelenskyy will enjoy this trip personally. He just has to do it."

Zelenskyy rejected earlier versions of the agreement, saying that the terms would have left Ukrainians in debt. He also pushed back on Trump's insistence that the revenue be used to pay back aid Ukraine has already received from the U.S.

"It was a very, very unpleasant offer that looked like colonial-style behavior, like what the Spanish conquistadors offered to the Incas," Fursa said.

In Kyiv, Ukrainians say they're nervously watching how the Trump-Zelenskyy meeting will unfold. Anna Kolesnyk, a communications manager in Kyiv, said she worries Trump might get angry at Zelenskyy again and retaliate. "God help us not to lose a lot," she said, "meaning our territories, our raw materials, or our minds, and to gain as (many) benefits from this meeting."" https://www.npr.org/2025/02/28/nx-s1-5312880/trump-zelenskyy-minerals-ukraine-russia

The only way to deal with a bully is to punch them in the nose. Zelenskyy is doing the right thing in standing up and saying, "you're trying to steal our lunch, but we're not going to give it to you."

Vance and his spalpeens are coming to Vermont to ski this weekend - as all good salt-of-the-earth hillbillies do. Most people are apeshit and plan to let him know. Some people are all "Why can't we let him and his family enjoy a private weekend in our lovely valley." And that is how we got to this point, at which we are basically fucked as a nation of laws. Fuck me.

"if I were Joyce Vance, right now I’d be posting pictures of my chickens, and if I were Wonkette, it would be cats. but I have neither, so here’s a photo of the sunset as seen from my front yard, two days ago."

So Teen Vogue has been flying under the radar of the Right. So far. "Indoctrinating" teenage girls. I like it!

I don't think the right cares much...they plan to take away all women's rights, so why care if they are "indoctrinated"?
