Stupefying that with the neoliberal consensus in tatters, the crises of capitalism destroying the planet, and the fallout of a half-century of belligerent and incoherent US foreign policy still causing mass death, the hot new liberal rag is arguing for a return to the GOP orthodoxy if the 1970s

that's so wild that Israel did that. if only there had been a way to predict that based on the extremely recent past

Yeah. This isn’t Schumer being weak. He wanted the war just like Bibi did, and he’s not about to call for it to end, or to try to hold anyone responsible.

That was brilliant of Trump to get Iran to agree to the proposal it had already offered

Oman receiving revenue for doing nothing

It’s called the Cycle of Abuse or the Walker Wheel: calm followed by rising tension, the explosion of violence, the reconciliation, the incremental intensification of violence over time.

'That's not the man I know' great I am telling you about the man *I* know and maybe you should consider that abusive people are not uniformly abusive to everyone because doing it in the shadows is how they keep getting away with it so maybe I know a facet of him you do not??

This has been a project of the ruling class in both ruling political parties for decades if not since the birth of this stupid nation. We are doing what we can and also not broadcasting intentions on social media bc of aforementioned technocratic police state. But I'm sure you've got a cool plan

"Why don't Americans-" The ruling class of America has intentionally disempowered its citizens spread across 3,000+ miles of land and then funded the police force as an occupying army that happily murders anyone who opposes them and imprisons whoever is left as slave laborers. So phone calls it is

the fantasy that the democratic party isnt part of this regime, the fantasy that the capitalist class isnt onboard with the annihilation of Iran, the fantasy that people willing to sacrifice the entire globe's future for profit have a problem with murdering anyone not in their immediate vicinity

the fantasy that people will rise to the moment, the fantasy that people will change on their deathbeds, the fantasy that people secretly want to do good and are working on themselves when all evidence points otherwise, the fantasy that the state is anything other than this

everything we are seeing now is the consequence of having a political environment in which indifference to the deaths and suffering of other people - even by the state whose supposed responsibility is to safeguard their welfare - is a superpower rather than a political liability

right but gaza was just a purity test

i will vote for dems who say this stuff and act on this stuff! i will give them money! i will tell my friends to do the same! it is what i want from government more than anything else right now!

This is the face of a lunar scientist who has just been told that the #Artemis II crew saw SEVERAL impact flashes (the flashes when meteors hit the lunar surface) in real time 😃 🌓💥

We are so, so small. #Artemis

Belated #caturday from my favorite kitty goalie.

The Democratic nominee in her own words saying that her boss was incapable of showing equal amounts of sympathy based on the race of the victims

best dog job in the world all you gotta do is retrieve sticks and every time the crowd goes wild

Defending the current batch of dems in 2026 is straight up embarrassing.

How come it's always "BlueSky is doomed if leftists aren't nice to liberals" and never "X is doomed because white supremacists and transphobes harassed black and trans people"?

There's an old saying that punks & goths are nice people pretending to be mean while hippies are mean people pretending to be nice and damn if that ain't mostly true. See: crunchy wellness influencers who turn out to be supremacists vs ppl telling their kids to look for goths when they need help

Too many people in the U.S. think they might be rich one day and they simply will not.

A former DOGE staffer developed an AI tool that hallucinated the size of Veterans Affairs contracts. For example, it concluded that more than a thousand deals were each worth $34 million, when in fact some were for as little as $35,000. (Published June 2025)

This motherfucker never met a stupid idea he didn't love:

If this man wasn't a Republican, the ENTIRE MSM would be declaring his Presidency over and there would be a cacophony of talking heads on every single media and social media channel singing from the same hymnal that he was toast.

I made a joke about this yesterday but he really is just blaming all the women lmaoooooo

Hey chat, is it good to fire your army chief of staff immediately prior to a land invasion of western asia, please reply before close of stock market, thanks

when liberals get upset at me and say "what do you want the democrats to do, they're in the minority" i'm going to start showing them this.

Volkswagen, an actual car company, had revenue of £321bn last year and a market cap of around £80bn.

no they didn't. that's not true.

Some of us figure out being a Cool Girl is a fucking trap in high school. Some of us clearly take a little longer.

One thing Trump has successfully done is cowed a lot of people into thinking they can't call for meaningful accountability for him and his cronies because it would be "revenge" or "political" and therefore illegitimate. Absolutely essential to reject that

Opinion | No

Things that are NOT red lines for the Democratic Party! Transphobia! People with Nazi tattoos! The AI tech bros! Elon Musk! AN ACTUAL GENOCIDE If we watch what they do and don't support, what they're willing to accept and not willing to accept - what does this tell us?

why won't he die? why won't they die? why don't they all just fall over dead. everyone living someday has to die. today is a good day to start something new. something new like no longer living. them. not you, not me. but him. and them. why won't they die?

Idk how anyone watches HGTV without immediately concluding America needs more taxes on the top 25% of earners or a ban on single family homes.

congratulations to trump and bibi for starting a war and immediately making the iranian regime the strongest and richest it has been in its entire history incredible, world-historic geopolitical fuckup

As an important thing to note. Artemis II got into space before Starship even got into orbit.

Whew. GenX group hug.

Hmm!

Guess what year this was written and by who

The [indeterminate color] pill of this is that the American-Israeli relationship is, for the blob at least, basically just tautological We defend 🇮🇱 because they’ll make a good staging ground to fight 🇮🇷 (don’t laugh if you’ve ever looked at a map) which 🇮🇷 might do because we’re defending 🇮🇱

It’s kinda hilarious how Trump killed April fool’s day. Everything is terrible. Every day a new horror. No one is in the mood and nobody is surprised by anything anymore.
