If you're worried about the state of the world all the time and need some peace my suggestion would be to make both your work and hobbies things that if you lose focus for a brief moment you could injure yourself in ways yet to be discovered by modern medicine

The plan to starve higher education by cutting student visas, then use the shortfall as an excuse to wage culture war, is playing out.

The University of North Texas is cutting or consolidating more than 70 academic programs, minors and certificates as it works to close a projected $45 million budget shortfall.

Wife just told me this one: What’s the difference between Iran and Vietnam? Trump had a plan to get out of Vietnam.

One is a Fudgsicle. One is a chunk of radiolarian chert. One is tasty, the other is not. Both look chocolatey, though one isn’t.

“We're celebrating the 250th anniversary of the Declaration of Independence, which was the document that enabled a revolution against kings w/ a coin that has an image of a living president of our country—that is a slap in the face to the founders, & a statement to the world that [Trump] is a king.”

This is srlsy fucked up. Gift link - www.nytimes.com/2026/03/13/u...

Big Tech and Big Media donated some $63 million to a Trump-aligned nonprofit that was set up to help finance Trump's presidential library. Now the nonprofit has disappeared and with it the money. Three guesses on where it's gone. www.washingtonpost.com/politics/202...

I swear every dystopian tech development is like "Hey, are you OK with being this much not-a-person in our eyes? How about this much? One or two? <clicking noises> OK, how about now—one or two?" like I'm at the devil's optometry office.

usually if you ask experts why an empire fell they’ll say it’s nuanced and multifaceted, so i think it’s kind of cool that with America future historians will get to just say like “oh they took the idiot train to moronsville”

This is an astounding and irresponsible and obvious lie by the Commander in Chief. This feels like another unthinkable red line crossed.

I'm already a little leery of the sheer amount of energy stored on, say, an LNG tanker. This would really stack up the incentives for Iran to turn some cheap drones into dramatic physical and economic damages. You'd feel both a long from a long way off.

Funny that President Trump thinks Jesus returning would be good news for him.

#EconSky The oil price takes (yes, higher prices will happen) are missing the significant financial market risk. US businesses/investors have become more dependent on Middle East sovereign wealth funds for capital since 2021. This illegal war is yet another inflationary, anti-growth WH policy.

When you have some Damascus off-cuts left over...

okay, this is funny, though

The last time I saw nominal adults being such incoherent whiny bitches about the Supreme Court was at every Federalist Society meeting ever

👀The federal judges in West Virginia, where ICE has been pulling over and detaining people on the freeway, are literally screaming about ICE's tactics. "It is an assault on the constitutional order," Judge Goodwin says. storage.courtlistener.com/recap/gov.us...

Complaining that following the Constitution will stop you from doing the thing you want to do is... an admission that what you want to do is unconstitutional. You swore an oath to defend the Constitution. You are violating that oath, Rep. Alford. Time to go home and let someone else do the job.

I guess people arrive at the class struggle in all kinds of ways. Usually not in a fleet of Lexuses, though?

If your response to the question “What are you going to do about the rapists?” is “Let me tell you how much richer the rich people are,” then you answered the question and your answer is “Nothing.”

I was asked to check this, the journal uses a Rail Fence Cipher, so you read each line up and down, left to right. The deciphered text in the article below is accurate, and names names. The file itself can be found here: www.justice.gov/epstein/file...

I testified Friday on the history of CBP and ICE's corruption and training problems. It's so much worse than you think. The population of CBP officers/agents arrested THEMSELVES since 2005 would be America's 4th largest police dept—larger than the Philly PD. www.doomsdayscenario.co/p/accountabi...

This is a cool story (and don’t miss the photos either) about trekking on foot from the southern edge of Dallas to the northern edge.

It is wild to me that a military incursion to steal another country’s resources so the president can have a personal slush fund in Qatar is like the 5th most scandalous thing currently happening.

It's nice that one of the assistant managers at the Lawless Kidnappings & Murders Inc factory is getting replaced. But top management, workers, board of directors, and culture all remain the same. And it's still a lawless kidnapping and murder factory. Flunky-shuffling and PR tweaks? Try again, GOP.

NEW: Many have reported that ICE intends to build a new detention center in Hutchins, Texas, that can house up to 9,500, but no one has reported the exact location — until now. www.dmagazine.com/frontburner/...

🚨HOLY CRAP. An ICE whistleblower just revealed a secret memo authorizing ICE officers to break into homes without a judicial warrant, which DHS's own legal training materials say is unconstitutional! ICE then hid the memo from the public, passing it along by word of mouth and private conversation.

mad king moment from the PBS Newshour correspondent

It's well below freezing there. It is completely unnecessary for "law enforcement" to force an old man out into that cold partially clothed. And they later found out he is a US citizen with no criminal history.

I would like to think the Mad King proclaiming “I will continue to illegally raise taxes on the American people until the NATO alliance collapses” would be the type of statement to cause Congress to act, but I’m not sure there’s any red line the GOP Congress has anymore.

what a legend lmao

This past week, I joined @robinkelly.house.gov in introducing articles of impeachment against Secretary Noem. The House must take these articles up immediately, and Congress must remove Noem from office. robinkelly.house.gov/media-center...

A St. Paul resident says federal officers knocked on her door and asked her to identify Hmong and Asian households in her North End neighborhood last week.

My 15 year old just texted me this TikTok video and told me that “this is our geopolitical situation right now.” I both love that he’s politically astute and hate that this is the world he has to grow up in.

This is one of the most beautiful things I have witnessed, the craft here is impeccable.

Oh wow you were forced to apologize for being white. How did you phrase your apology? Where were you? Who demanded it of you, and what law compelled you? Was it a local ordinance? State level? Was it court-mandated? Tell me more about this apology you made for being white.

Are you familiar with the Terminator movies?
