I think a year ago I did not know of Teen Vogue, then I started coming across numerous articles cited from them and I thought what a great thing, a youth magazine with a political conscience. A magazine that focuses on the issues as they apply to young people. Was it really losing money or had it become too liberal in these fascist times.
when strippers are not making it, you know it's getting bad.
I put some things back on the shelf the other day at the grocery store because I thought "I don't really need this, not for that price" which I have not done in actual decades.
"FIFA on Wednesday announced a new “Peace Prize,” the inaugural edition of which will be awarded at the World Cup draw on Dec. 5 in Washington. The award will “recognize the outstanding contribution of those who work hard to end conflicts and bring people together in a spirit of peace,” FIFA President Gianni Infantino said.
Trump would seem to be the obvious recipient of FIFA’s obsequious new award. Infantino and Trump have a close relationship. So close, even, that in July Infantino let Trump keep the Club World Cup’s 24-karat gold-plated trophy, forcing FIFA to give a replica to the tournament’s actual winning team." [HuffPost]
Paul Krugman, on Sir's Halloween Party: “C’mon. Of course he realized how it would look,” said Krugman. “He understood perfectly well that he was partying while ordinary Americans were suffering. And that understanding — combined with the belief that he can get away with it — was a big reason he enjoyed the event.”
If Jay Jones could win the election of attorney general even after the text message scandal, I am sure there is still a chance for Graham Platner to win.
So I read that even the conservative justices hearing argument today on the Trump Tariffs seemed skeptical. Have not read in depth stuff yet.
Justices grill administration over imposition of steep duties as Sotomayor says: ‘I just don’t understand this argument’
Even conservative justices sounded doubtful of the strength of the Trump administration’s position. “The vehicle is the imposition of taxes on Americans, and that has always been a core power of Congress,” said chief justice John Roberts.
me thinks the tariff fix is in...nutlick's sons run cantor fitzgerald, who are hedging on tariffs being overturned. gee, offering companies cash upfront, at .20-.30 on the dollar, what could go wrong?
Why Holmes? Did she make a “contribution to the presidential library,” or does Bobby Brainworm need an experienced medical grifter to help with selling MAHA?
It's not to late for another Democrat to mount a Maine Senate campaign. Platner's face plant is serious. I hope the Democratic Party learned from the disastrous Biden debacle of 2024 and won't commit to just one candidate too early.
Everything they say at this point is: Distraction bait. They can cry and whine all they want. Those bitches lost. They should move on and do better (but I doubt they can).

A good day starts with a hearty bowl of lion cubs. Rawr!
Kittehs bowlin', who knew?
Oh, cute! A couple of treats for the baby tyrannosaur that hatched out of that egg.
When trying to come up with rhymes
It sometimes takes some tryin'
But two cubs and a wobbly bowl
Was easy, I ain't lyin'.
They hop right in and chew the rim
With rapt determination
They bet their soul to beat that bowl
As an act of pre-predation.
Bowling for Boop.
Manely, I paws and give you fangs for that gif.
Rawr!
Yeah, about that:

“Would you like a cub or a bowl? The cub comes with a salad or a half sandwich.”
it used to be a full sandwich, but the cub got it.
Those busy babies aren’t just lion around!
Where can I find an adult version of that bowl? Asking for a friend.
Look up "papasan chairs" they don't roll though.
On a related note...

They already shredded the box that bowl arrived in...
I ain't lion, thems is cute!
"Am I a lion?
I don't think of myself as a lion. You might as well though, I have a mighty roar."
What's more fun than a bowl full of Lion Kettehs?
Those lion cubs are having the time of their lives with that bowl!
I want to be a lion cub when I grow up

I don't start paying attention to the news until after dinner. Delicate stomach, y'know. YEE-HAW! Need I add more?

it's prolly good for my waistline to have my cheapness win in the junk food aisle. i do miss full size Funyuns though, keep getting the minis.
Good local news: The reform slate won convincingly in our town, so now we have a Democratic majority on our town board.

Teen Vogue committed actual journalism, so it had to go. I had believed that it was under the radar for the MAGAs.
Why Holmes? Did she make a “contribution to the presidential library,” or does Bobby Brainworm need an experienced medical grifter to help with selling MAHA?
Oof. My day got off to a bad start. Trying to recover my equilibrium before I have to go to the...ugh!..dentist.
