The site I cribbed from (Something like "The Gershwin Notebook") had some archaic and condescending stage direction ("𝘐𝘧 the performer is 𝘮𝘢𝘭𝘦, 𝘩𝘦 shall sing..." Like that) so I just skipped it.
I know that somone of the wonketariat staff will write about this tomorrow, but the House Un-American committee trying to smear the SPLC is what the young kids today would call bullshitmaxxing. ARRRGGH!
Imagine if the reaction to Upton Sinclair’s “The Jungle” had been to completely deregulate the meat packing industry. That’s how the government is approaching raw milk today.
The Supreme Court has it wrong, money is not speech, it's corruption, as in "money is the root of all evil." Since you can't take money entirely out of elections the best you can do is neutralize it. A million people contribution $100 each to an election is different from one person contribution $100 million. So we should stop allowing people to contribute unlimited amounts of money through PACs and SUPERPACs. This bill to limit corporate contribution parallels restrictions placed on unions about their political contribution. It seems like good law
Very random – Every now and then I think maybe I've gotten all I'm going to get out of my Criterion Channel subscription. Then they put together a quiet little collection like 'Odysseys', which includes 'O Brother, Where Art Thou?', 'The Straight Story', 'After Hours', The Searchers', 'The Darjeeling Limited', 'Sullivan’s Travels', and 'Walkabout'.
First term Trump aide Alyssa recalls how they were incensed by Hunter Biden selling his drawings during the Biden administration. But says the second Trump admin grifting is just “next level!”
Oh honey … you disingenuous fucking asshole … this is many levels up, in a totally different game. And, as a Trumper, you probably can’t count high enough.
“It was a great game,” Watters said Tuesday. “And Trump didn’t lose it for them. It was obviously the refs, because the league wants this thing to go seven for financial reasons. … Trump, the reaction was mixed. I would say it was passionate. I did hear some boos.” He continued, “But I mean, it’s an NBA game. That’s the fanbase. It’s like if [former Vice President] Kamala [Harris] went to a Dallas Cowboys game, how would that sound? At least he goes to games. Democrats don’t even go to games. They go to pride parades.”
The “Five” co-host was presumably unaware that New York City Mayor Zohran Mamdani, whose successful Democratic campaign centered on affordability for all residents, attended both the city’s Pride March last year and Monday’s game.
Republicans caved and gave Trump his ICE funding AND did nothing to stop his slush fund. Republicans will always cave. They are the MAGA party. There is nothing left of the GOP. Keep calling them the MAGA party until it sticks.
Palm cockatoos are drummers and are very cool. Learn about them here: https://martiniambassador.substack.com/p/laying-down-the-rhythm

Beautiful Birdie!
Thees ees a *birb*! And he or she is carrying a *stick*!!!!
Oh, for joy!!!!
A thamke x1,000,000. Birb is giggling now. 😀😀😀🦜🦜🦜🦜🦜🦜🦜
I love this bird. Thank you so much for introducing me to them.
Dibs on representing the first metal band that features a Palm Cockatoo drummer.
That birb has some ginger (Baker).
I’m reading “The Bird Way” by Jennifer Ackerman and her writing on this is fascinating. They create their own rhythms and then sing to them as well.
Oooooooo, the rhythm is gonna get you!!!!
But, drummers, am I right?
Grrrrr at the exotic animal trafficking.
I wanted to make a rhyme about cockatoo mating behavior, but the thing kept ending up really dirty.
Too dirty for Wonkette?!! Now *that's* quite a bar.
OK, here we go :
She heard him beating on his wood
And off the she-bird flew
She used a light touch with her beak
And blew a cockatoo.
😂🦜🍆
I shoulda known.
I was afraid that bird had macawber intent.
Conure cut that out?
🎶Happy with my lot
How do I get that way?
Look at what I've got
I got rhythm
I got music
Who could ask for anything more?🎵
Almost always, the Gershwins got it
Isn't there a "I got my gal" in there?
"My gal"..."My guy"...
The site I cribbed from (Something like "The Gershwin Notebook") had some archaic and condescending stage direction ("𝘐𝘧 the performer is 𝘮𝘢𝘭𝘦, 𝘩𝘦 shall sing..." Like that) so I just skipped it.
Good eye, though.
It's just that this is a courtship display by a male bird to attract a female bird, correct? So it seemed apropos.
That's one big bad bird.
Any relation to Budgie from Siouxsie and the Banshees?
😆
AGH ... DAT'S MY KINDA WO-MAN

Dude even LOOKS like a drummer with that punk plumage.

Yes, we should all wear those shoes.

That raw milk guy is a dangerous lunatic, and I hate that he gets treated as anything else by anybody.

That is a BIG BIRD and wants everyone to know it!

Jesse is clearly a copium addict.
Cowboy fans are a nearly perfect cross section of America. He's still getting booed.
There are many, many, MANY things Jesse Watters is, indeed, unaware of.

Those shoes make your feet look like hooves!
Is Flying Spaghetti Monster now removed from the approved list of Religions? The logo looked so good!
Bastards probably don't even COUNT us SubGenii. And we're a RESPECTABLE insane UFO cult! *shakes head sadly*
May the Great Collander Filter the Madness from Your Soul!
That madness is what I'm RUNNING ON these Last Days.
Um, fringy hooves is a weird look IMO. But I'm not a fashionista.

If anyone can pull off those boots, it's Robyn.
