well, that’s my lunchtime sorted

There are many things to say about this choice, but for me the first thing that leaps to mind is that, well, Miami is unlikely to still be habitable in 2100, so it's a great place to put a monument to the man who will do more than any other single being to bring that state of affairs about

i always feel a little bad when i see a how it started // how it’s going from meghan mccain, she’s so frequently a recipient and should leave some opportunities for others

See also: Liz Cheney. Normal people were baffled by the idea that it was a bad idea for Harris to have a prominent Republican who fought Trump come to some events to talk about what an existential threat he was. Because that is actually deranged.

There are white people on here who are angry at a black woman for being insufficiently enthusiastic when she expressed support for a candidate who refused to endorse her.

Republican Sunday: YOU HAVE AWAKENED A DRAGON OF WHITE RAGE WE WILL SWIM IN THE BLOOD OF OUR TERRORIST ENEMIES AS THEIR CHILDREN WORK OUR SLAVE CANPS Republican Monday: we’re sweet widdle puddy tats what never hurted a fly and the mean man’s post fwightened us so bad we cwosed up our widdle eyes

The Trump administration has not sent any Coast Guard admirals up for Senate confirmation because Kristi Noem lives in a home usually reserved for the top admiral of the Coast Guard and she "she doesn’t want to get kicked out of the commandant’s house." nymag.com/intelligence...

once again, if tylenol caused autism, america would have a better rail system

This is exactly what a baby trying to convince his doctor not to give him a shot would say.

Remember when people nominally on the left helped bury metoo by pretending we weren't allowed to doubt this obvious fucking huckster.

Oh dear. It seems Dr. Oz’s company sells Trump‘s big autism cure. What a crazy happenstance.

when you've got 50,000 followers on bluesky and a new politico article taking a popular democrat's words wildly out of context to promote sectional infighting drops

I was told on here she said the literal exact opposite and it‘s reached the point where if you all said Kamala thought water was wet, I’d double check the records.

I do think if we ever see a coalitional breakdown in the GOP we're going to get some truly insane sex scandals coming out all at once as everyone unloads the blackmail shotguns they have pointed at each other

at some point we are going to discover where the shakedown money Trump is taking for his various "deals" is going and it is not going to be what anyone would understand as being "the United States government"

Make them ride circuit. Cancel a Supreme Court term. No more clerks. And strip jurisdiction.

Kristi Noem's side piece is the person actually running Department of Homeland Security.

British brain injury personality Andy Ngo wants to send me to antifa prison for teaching him how to reach out to people for comment

Topical commentary from 1852 www.marxists.org/archive/marx...

As America's most pro-business leader in a generation, I will choose one company each week and accuse them of witchcraft

like i was saying

Which is why the media, who like Trump and want him to rule us like a king, stopped covering Democrats calling the fascists weird, & started quoting consultants who didn't like it instead, creating an alternate reality in which Harris & Walz abandoned an effective strategy because of consultants.

this is objectively the opposite of how Politico covered this which I think says a lot about how the leadership of Politico thinks about LGBT rights

dudes rock

I’m so fucking thankful to be living in the state of Oregon right now lol

Tylenol about to sue this administration into the Rapture after that press conference. 😂

The whole administration in one quote

Does the vat of 80 different vaccines lead into the giant spigot that lets water flow down?

RFK Jr comparing women who have been raped... to anti-vaxxers??

Not to be panglossian, lots of very bad things happening but I do think that the regime that can't keep Jimmy Fucking Kimmel down is not going to cast us into a thousand year reich of durable authoritarianism.

Just a reminder before the “big announcement” today. Autism was discovered in 1911 and the modern definition of Autism came in 1943. Tylenol wasn’t widely used until the 1950s. Anyone trying to tell you that Tylenol causes Autism isn’t someone that should be taken seriously.

Oh FFS. Trump talking about medical science is just so fucking painful. He's saying that babies are being given 80 vaccines at a time and "it's a disgrace." We are now like one of those primitive countries with a crazy dictator who says his people should take yucca root and goats milk for AIDS.

Trump is rescinding road safety grants all over the country, in blue states and red ones. The reason: those projects are "hostile" to cars. www.bloomberg.com/news/article...

A lot of politics of this era is breaking ancient truces and assuming that the other-side won't fight back

Far too many people think they can burst the water main but keep the taps in their house working

kimmel coming back on the same day the rapture doesn’t happen are two great thumbs jabbed in two deserving eyes

No, no...I think you misheard: The RAPTOR is coming this week. Still a cause for concern, I suppose. You could stay inside, but she can open doors. Clever girl.

With the inevitable coming shortages of leuocovorin, there's going to be a huge push for influencers (& folks in our government) to profit off of folinic acid supplements. A few things: -doses used in trials are pharmacological and the OTC supplemental versions will last a few days to maybe a week.

one extremely strange thing about this era is that trump can get away with anything which the Republican congressional majority cannot admit to him doing, whereas there has been substantial pushback on things which would not collapse the coalition to admit

I wonder if all of the people who were like who cares about about Tiktok stealing all of my data what's the CCP going to do with it are now realizing how bad of an idea that was now that it's all being handed over to the US government Moreover, ICE must be destroyed

let’s start calling sweatpants, pajama pants, and any other non-constricting soft pants “boneless pants”

tired: pentagon pizza index wired: culture war grindr outage index

if you assume that every single thing this administration does is for an audience of, like, maybe two million people out of three hundred and thirty million, you will be more right than wrong

Will never stop emphasizing that believing convicts deserve anything but a bullet to the head because the magic CSI machine is God is approximately three standard deviations to the left of the average voter, so supporting trans care for prisoners is absolutely going to the mats for us.

I’ve seen a lot of trans folks get outraged at Kamala Harris over this news article A brief thread on why I would really suggest *reading* the outrage bait posted about our community by major media platforms before hitting “post” on social media Here we go… 🧵

The one thing that has historically held back Christian right terrorism from reaching what it could have was that most people had too much of a self preservation instinct to risk execution, but using Charlie Kirk's death to build a martyrdom cult puts tactics like suicide bombing on the table.

You’re much closer to becoming disabled or homeless than you are to becoming rich and wealthy. It’s not a moral failing. It’s not something you can “try harder” your way out of. We need robust social supports & safety nets to ensure everyone is properly cared for.

seems like the kind of thing that a media famously concerned with aging presidents should care about!
