Welp, I tuned into Twitter for my every few months check in and see this deplorable shit from the @GOP'd media PR team. So from "Dems are engaged in an underground pedo ring" to "Yeah, sex with 15 years olds isn't a big deal"
Normalizing rape wasn't on my bingo card.

Megyn Kelly: "I know somebody very close to this case…Jeffrey Epstein, in this person's view, was not a pedophile…He was into the barely legal type, like he liked 15 year old girls…He wasn't into like 8 year olds…There's a difference between a 15 year old and a 5 year old."

@AccountableGOP So they’ve given up on the whole “it’s a hoax” and have moved on to “ok, he did it but it’s actually not a big deal”.

I am still in disbelief that an entire generation of educators, rabbis & Jewish professionals who taught me “never again” year in & year out my whole life have quite literally not uttered a single critical word of Israel in the past two years.

50-year mortgage isn't a solution. It's a gift to bankers and builders, who will experience increased profits and housing prices will go up as a 50-year term increases monthly buying power and naturally will cause bidding wars. Trump's econ policies are Mickey Mouse.

Free markets, no regs, private property rights got us the squalor of cities and housing in the 1800s industrial city. Federalist folks want to bring it back

@glennbeck Because you're an elite with rectal cranial inversion and can't fathom that $7.25 an hour in red states doesn't cover rent, groceries, and health care you fucking goblin.

Wait...why are over 40 MILLION people on SNAP? It's not the 1930s. We're not in a depression. I have a hard time believing THAT MANY people actually need food assistance in America.

@andrewcuomo Actually that you won't go away and your ego drives you to seek attention and validation through public office. Go away.

The scariest thing this Halloween… is that a vote for Sliwa is a vote for Mamdani

Surprised this guy can even talk with what he's gobbling down every night.
Speaker Mike Johnson@SpeakerJohnson
CNN reports: “Democrats say even missed paychecks for U.S. troops won’t be enough to end the shutdown.” That is OUTRAGEOUS. Chuck Schumer is keeping our troops unpaid and American families hurting just to appease the Marxist wing of his party and so he can protect his own power. He said it himself — “every day of the shutdown gets better” for his party. But worse for Americans.

@BuffaloSabres = hot garbage. Soft, lazy, don't win puck battles, offensively inept, defensively lost, and the worst guy on this team is 72. Dude never plays physical, gets owned in every puck battle, afraid to get to the front of the net, can't win face-offs regularly, lazy.

@jacobin Who didn't see this coming? With no data privacy protection in the US, companies like Zillow have a singular core mission-data collection-via some service they dgaf about. The service is a front. The actual goal is data collection to make profit from your information.

One-stop real estate sites Zillow and Redfin are now directing homebuyers to their own mortgage lending services, part of massive consolidation and restructuring efforts by the sites’ corporate owners to corner the trillion-dollar mortgage market. jacobin.com/2025/09/zillow…

🚨TXST Expulsion Violates Free Speech🚨
Texas State has expelled a student for protected expression—directly contradicting Abbott’s Executive Order GA-42 and the First Amendment. Free speech cannot be punished selectively.

Who would blame them for recognizing corporate Dems as just a collective of performance artists pretending to have humanity and care while surrendering to their corporate handlers. Stop voting for the corporately supported incumbents, let's primary career Dem!

Breaking: The Trump administration just deleted a study by the National Institute of Justice that shows domestic terrorists are most often right-wing.

Asking this disingenuous question should actually disqualify you from office. The answer, which they know, is decades of population loss+economic decline made worse, not better, by horrible economic development policies with massive subsidies and PILOTs.

Took six seconds for me to be disgusted with the @NFL and change the channel. Loser spits on an opposing player. Is there a league even close to this one for bad on field behavior and unsportsmanlike conduct with the avalanche of offseason arrests and domestic violence?

@JasonKnightPhD City On The Edge is decently solid as source for summarizing publicly-available information about Buffalo/region in the first 3/4s of the 20th century. Once he gets into his own lifetime it becomes a book about himself and his friends and he largely forgoes serious research.

Many parts of this Mark Goldman book are genuinely very good but there are also several parts where it’s clear he’s just litigating a personal grievance, such as this bit, which appears to be about his headaches getting permits from City Hall for his cafe:
