the pitt is west wing for doctors

JD Vance admitting on live TV that the U.S. can also engage in "economic terrorism" is something i don't think i ever anticipated any american official, other than trump, being stupid enough to say out loud. you're supposed to pretend america is a force for good man

the biggest disconnect between most people and government is that they don’t feel like government is doing anything useful for them bridging this divide is as difficult as it’s ever been in the age of fractured social media, but I genuinely do not think anyone is doing it better than Zohran

IFRS is low key GOATed when GAAP hate is the vibe

this sorta reminds me of the 2016 republican presidential primaries in that trump was not necessarily unstoppable but was bolstered in large part by his numerous opponents refusing to drop out of the race until it was way too late. let's hope this doesn't happen here lol

i think it's really funny to be worried about getting drafted into the iran war if you're an american because this country very likely does not have the state capacity to induct hundreds of thousands of people in the military, and it certainly doesn't have the political will for that either lol

The world is now run by Art of War people. And of course havent read the Art of War and that's too bad because they're Sun Tzus target audience

if there's one conclusion that the study of both labor history and imperialism converge on, it is that the richest people in the world are happy to burn money on control, power, impunity. and the "everything is about profit" version of anti-capitalism does not survive serious contact with either

Very on-brand for Gingrich to seek out a new, younger canal the moment the current canal starts having health problems

we deserve a lot of pain as americans for current events. we just never seem to learn

imagine being a reservist not working on the front lines and then getting murked in a pointless war lmao

"Trump administration officials acknowledged in closed-door briefings with congressional staff on Sunday that there was no intelligence suggesting Iran planned to attack U.S. forces first." www.reuters.com/world/us/pen...

because it's good to do this to trump supporters and bad to do this to federal workers, silly goose!

we gotta make it so taboo to admit that you ever supported trump in anyway when it's all said and done. like you should be vulnerable to losing your job if you admit to voting for this guy

i hope Iran knows how to sink some aircraft carriers

I don't let my social media platforms define what kind of loser I am

people forget that it actually took a long time for twitter to become a fun place. founded in 2006. really only got usable in like 2014 or 2015 or whatever, then got really good in 2017 when the 280-character limit implemented. then elon musk happened. blue sky still has a lot of time to develop

I do agree that Bluesky is not what Twitter used to be, but even a decade ago Twitter was (1) not even close to the most used social platform (2) mostly influential because journalists and politicians were addicted to it

would've been really funny if they went with the originally proposed punishment of execution by the state. that was a genuine possibility. but this is better. also we should have that here for insurrectionists

what exactly goes through the minds of ordinary reactionaries when they condemn the late jesse jackson as a "race-baiter" after seeing people like trump, vance, and others sing his praises? i'm sure a lot of it is just ignored but that's gotta be baffling to some of them right

online arguments aren’t about convincing the other party. they’re about establishing a psychosexual dominance over them that will burden them every time they see your posts from that point forward.

The problem with AI is you can't really shoot it in the head yet

AOC on Trump’s oil embargo of Cuba: “What has transpired is that now it’s kind of become acceptable that the entire Western world will look the other way as they starve & deprive a people because they find political actors or political regimes in that country to be objectionable”

"50 percent of rural Americans disapprove of ICE’s handling of enforcement, while 50 percent approve 75 percent of men aged 18 to 29 disapprove of ICE’s handling of enforcement, while only 25 percent approve"

i didn't watch the superbowl half time show because i was spending some very important time getting into the hitman videogame series but i saw some clips and bad bunny did great. i know it was a great performance. blessed vibes all around

OK "god bless america" and then naming every country in the americas from south to north is absolute king shit

Stop letting people refer to Spanish as a foreign language in the United States. The US is home to one of the largest Spanish speaking populations in the world.

i actually did spend the past 4 months learning Spanish after bad bunny told us to, for this very moment

No joke: I got angry hate mail today for writing an obituary of a Black woman scientist—because the person felt she did didn’t deserve the recognition. Which just makes me want to share it again: www.nature.com/articles/d41...

Worth noting that this response actually concedes that what Pritzker said is true.

My favorite thing about protein bars is that they satisfy the innate human desire for sweet edible clay

Unironically tho

mamdani is like 3 standard deviations to the right on the bell-curve of "levels of charisma in any politician, ever"

Somebody should invent a socioeconomic system which is good at allocating resources

* clears throat * let him cook

continue to think that if instead of "raw milk" we called it "doodoo milk" people would understand the risk proposition

This cannot be something a civilian law enforcement agent is allowed to wear in the US — and an agency that has a culture that tolerates this cannot be saved.
