Anyone have spoilers for the JD Vance/George Santos crossover episode?

I'm betting George dresses up as a couch in drag while JD searches for dolphins on Grindr.

But my state's rights?

i think SCOTUS should have sponsor names on their robes, like soccer team jerseys.

Nikki Haley gets told again to stick it. This is epic.

Haley Voters for Harris PAC has told Haley to have several seats.

β€œWe have formally responded to @NikkiHaley's cease and desist letter.

We have deep respect for Ambassador Haley's patriotism and sacrifices.

We also believe that @KamalaHarris will be better for the country than Trump.”

Trump’s Project 2025 has some VERY creepy surveillance ideas about women’s pregnancies. Read this passage carefully (from page 455 of their plan).

My 17 year old son calls any kind of Internet connectivity β€œWiFi”.

I have failed as a parent.

When I was a child I didn’t know who I was. I knew who everyone told me to be, a good little Jewish boy who would grow up to be a good Jewish man. I built that boy out of mud with my hands and shaped him into the form others expected. On his forehead I wrote אמΧͺ, truth, hoping it would live a truth I didn’t understand.

I wrote a name of God on a piece of paper and placed it into his mouth and he lived. For 35 years he walked in my place, living the false life with my breath.

One day I could suffocate no longer and needed to die or take my breath back. In a moment of strength I removed the aleph from his head and he fell apart. He did not die as his forehead now read, for he was never alive.

I didn’t realize how much mud had been added to him over the years. How deep the shame was, how heavy the now dried pieces of dirt were. My hands now torn and bleeding by breaking my golem apart, I finally found the long forgotten paper.

I see the name I wrote was my own.

Since beginning #MastodonForHarris, a number of people have asked about a Mastodon community venue to support downballot Democrats. Today, I took the time to create one. Check out Mastodon For A Blue Wave 2024 #MastodonBlueWave at secure.actblue.com/donate/mast. For now, my own main focus will continue to be on Mastodon for Harris, but nobody said we here on Mastodon can’t have all the nice things!

No milk for cereal,
No bread for toast,
Chocolate cake for breakfast,
Adulting is easy.

Wow. Scientific American blasts SCOTUS rulings:

"Science is dismissed and disdained in this war on reality."

"technically incompetent, in some cases corrupt, politicos in robes with power over matters that hinge on vital facts about pollution, medicine, employment and much else."

"In rejecting facts to please their political partyβ€”and their patronsβ€”the justices of the Court’s majority have broken their oath, made to both the Constitution and the American people."
