Wednesday Open Thread

by Carl Ballard — Wednesday, 10/29/25, 8:15 am

  • SNAP benefits run out at the end of the month if the government remains unfunded. And while Washington State is doing some things to fill the gap, your local food bank could use some cash. If you’re looking for one, you can’t go wrong with the Ballard Food Bank.
  • This story about a biodigester is pretty cool.
  • Spokane’s solution to homelessness is pretty awful.
  • What was the point of running on auditing the budget, if you’re just going to not?

    Cuomo going full Islamophobe.

    He just doesn’t understand the New York culture, New York values, what 9-11 meant.

    You mean other than being 9 and living in The Bronx in the Fall of 2001.

    Trump says ‘it’s pretty clear’ he can’t run for a third term
    “I’m not allowed to run,” Trump told reporters. “It’s too bad.”

    Add another to the list of things Mile pretends not to know about.

    Q: Just last week a minister was shot directly in the face with a pepper round by a DHS agent that left his face bloodied. Are you concerned that this is a religious freedom issue?

    MIKE JOHNSON: I can’t comment on any of those instances. I haven’t seen or heard any of those videos

    and I definitely cam’t form an opinion on shooting a clergyman with a pepper ball in the face without seeing it.

    Eds Note, props to the reporter who frames the Q to maximize MAGA Mike’s hypocrisy.

    Big ‘Please clap’ energy

    DON JR: I was one of the early people calling out Twitter 1.0. Yesterday I was getting 5,000 RTs a post. Today I got 5. Something changed. I do my own social media.

    EISEN: Maybe it was a bad post

    DON JR: I can tell when it’s a bad post. Sometimes I hit that send button, I know it’s a banger.

    So much overlap between that list and the lists of all those Republican voters who are making this possible.

    The MAGA DEA arrested 171 addicts, shoplifters, and random low level street informants and then issued a report bragging to Fat Hitler that they had cleaned out the Sinaloa cartel from New England.

    “Nobody has ever seen anything like it. It’s never been better.”

    Fat Hitler’s MAGAstapo has been forced to admit under sworn testimony that their use of a privately developed and admittedly very technically flawed mobile biometrics software app they carry on their phones is considered by the agency to provide a definitive determination of the immigration status of any person scanned with it. And that this determination overcomes all other evidence including valid state and even U.S. State Department issued documents like passports, birth certificates, etc.

    #KavanaughStop + Mobile Fortify = Stephen Miller can deport any of “the blacks” who get “uppity”. Or that neighbor who bitched at him for not taking in his recycling container.

    Good point!

    Maduro is an odious dictator, but it’s hard to see his regime as a threat sufficient to warrant armed intervention. The regime-change policy is also riddled with numerous contradictions and inconsistencies that are likely to doom it. For example, if the boat strikes are supposed to deny Maduro drug-smuggling revenue, then why did the Trump administration approve a license for Chevron to pump oil in Venezuela? That will help fund the regime it hates.

    Why a jingoist policy that makes no sense??

    Epstein! Epstein!

    From the fucking hippies at Forbes magazine

    Donald Trump Jr. in 2021: “Those Hunter no-show no-experience board seats didn’t come without an expected return!”

    Donald Trump Jr. in 2024: Gets $2.8M in stock for joining an advisory board that didn’t exist until he joined it.
