If you could all be so kind as to fill my timeline with sloths and rescue dogs and such, it would be a great help.

Posted to Twitter because people who need to hear it might see it here. This shit will not stand.

Just gonna say, if your kid says, “Your body, my choice,” to a girl, he may end up making an unscheduled involuntary kidney donation. Teach him better.

@I_Rapley Yes, she was in the group led by Cecil Powell, who won a Nobel prize for confirming the existence of the pion. Also, the article notes he was always scrupulous about crediting Brown and others for their contributions.

[Rep. Sean Casten @RepCasten]

With 9 days to go until a government shutdown, House Republicans are bringing a bill to the floor that would defund the ability of regulators to develop consistent climate accounting rules.

Science is real. We have serious challenges. Let's stop wasting our time and get to work.

@GreatDismal A fine long run, it sounds like, but still sorry to see them go. All the scritchies for Mr. Biggles.

Don’t worry, this is definitely the only time Trump has revealed highly classified info to foreign nationals.

Ok this and the time with the Russian ambassador in the Oval Office. But that’s it!

Seems somewhat worse than, say, using a homebrew email server

A man showed up to the state capital with a gun to kill Tony Evers, gets arrested…posted bail and showed back up with another gun AGAIN today. Directly after this video was posted.

Do y’all understand how serious this is yet?

[PULL THE STRINGS!!! DANCE TO THAT!!! @PsychicWhoosh]

@martin_fff @GreatDismal I've also noticed this as well. Weather people blissfully tapdancing around record high temperatures for far too long now. "Wow! Can you imagine that? More record heat. What a whacky thing we are now experiencing year after year after year after year..."

[Colin Peters @ColinPeters]

Do you think he realizes both of these things are examples of the GOP being weirdos?

This dick.

[The Associated Press @AP]

Bankrupt conspiracy theorist Alex Jones hasn't paid a dime of the nearly $1.5 billion he owes Sandy Hook families for claiming the school shooting was a hoax. Yet he's spending tens of thousands on himself — including $93,000 in July. https://t.co/Mowkeeyowa

One of the nicest men I have had the joy of working with in SF. Performs the most precise, careful field surveys and measurements for as-built drawings for people to use in renovations. I’m devastated that his doctor did not give him the same care.

[Keith Olbermann's Dogs @TomJumboGrumbo]

His owner is too elderly to care for him, so Lenox 179187 is now TBK Saturday. With the best behavior rating, this usually friendly, outgoing and affectionate 2yo is now timid, shy and stressed with the other dogs around him. Adoptable from any location, he needs a family as a single dog with kids over 5yo. Please pledge RT, let’s get Lenox safe.

Donald Trump Jr. and Kimberly Guilfoyle photographed with Enrique Tarrio, the leader of the Proud Boys.

Tarrio was recently sentenced to 22 years in prison for seditious conspiracy.

My family always used, “Born on a raft?!” so I guess we’re related to Italians or maybe Serbians?

What to say to someone who leaves the door open after coming in? Clear winners are France (concise) and Portugal (profane) for me. Source: https://t.co/RG9n48yllX

Next we’ll see these geniuses complaining that the NAACP has been “taken over” by people who *actually believe* Black people face discrimination.

[Colin Peters @ColinPeters]

It’s just really weird, and kind of stupid, to think that an organization specifically tasked with raising awareness of and fighting discrimination, is *too aware* of systemic discrimination.

[Colin Peters @ColinPeters]

Which is to say, saying the ADL is “woke” is thumpingly stupid. Did you expect them to be chill about discrimination? Are you saying they should calm down about anti-semitism?
