Look I know this might be a controversial position to assert but I just don’t feel like this is the most optimal manner for society to function

"these people are gonna be whitewashing trump like they did bush" as a lib just gonna raise my hand here and say i still bear a burning-hot hatred for bush v gore and indeed everything that ensued from putting that goddamn republican idiot in the white house

reminder that the number one issue that the press covered in 2016, the one they told voters was THE MOST IMPORTANT thing in the election, was Hillary Clinton's compliance with Presidential Records Act record-keeping

Eventually this will eat Dems alive again too.

While this finding might have surprised the researchers, it makes sense to me that the men who view women as inherently inferior would also be the ones most able to justify exploiting women's unpaid labor for their own pleasure, power, and personal gain.

Biden admin was highly competent, but I think it's also true that teenagers didn't "witness it". Current environment is terrible especially at conveying information of competence. If it's good and working, it isn't news.

Everyone's avoiding the real question, how centaurs wore kilts

So what this describes is ethnic cleansing www.nytimes.com/2026/04/01/w...

very specifically if you are tempted to pretend It Happened as an april fool's joke please go ahead and preemptively delete the post right now

"She's too established, we need an outsider candidate made entirely out of red flags" is literally how we got Trump twice. Still waiting on those examples of soldiers who accidentally got a totenkopf tattoo BTW, Rooster!

I don't want to dump on higher ed too much in this political climate, but a lot of the crisis with student loans, etc is predatory graduate programs. A lot of masters degrees especially are basically scams, and PhD programs are near Hollywood levels of exploiting kids'dreams.

People get really mad about HOAs but there are worse things (retired American Airlines pilots who introduce themselves as Captain John and print our 400+ pamphlets like this after getting walloped in the HOA board election last year).

My mother thinks next [day of the week] next week, on that day. It drives me nuts. i do not skip a Thursday when I tell you something is happening next Thursday. Every single Thursday gets counted!

Anyway, my opinion about Star Trek, which is Good and Correct, is that two things have gone wrong: it is best served by 22 episode seasons, which streaming has killed, and also it is a franchise that needs you to inhabit the worldview of a Centre-Left Army Guy that few in modern US TV do.

Congratulations to Seattle's Sound Transit, America's fastest-growing train network, which is opening an 7-mile, 3-station extension across Lake Washington today! This is the system's 5th new segment opened in 2 years, continually pushing ridership up to new record highs!

Occidentalism watch: "christening" refers to the practice of giving a ship its Christian name, as distinct from its original, pagan name

ah, we're discoursing about AWACS in Saudi? en.wikipedia.org/wiki/US%E2%8...

"Countries heavily reliant on US aid see a 10.5% increase in maternal mortality following a switch from a Democratic to a Republican administration—about 44.7 additional deaths per 100 000 live births." gh.bmj.com/content/11/3...

Platner is a Dem Tea Party guy, in sense that he's a shitheel coasting on glazing by the media

isn't it amazing what you find digging through old News Papers

@gbrew24.bsky.social:

When I was 11 I won a design an ad contest where the prize was $50, I was so pumped to buy some sick Legos until I found out it wasn't cash it was a Patriot Bond I'd have to wait decades to be able to use. I'm pleased to report I cashed it today and immediately went and bought some sick ass Legos

I simply would actually do the research if I were filing an appellate brief I mean, I would in any case, but

i don't much like platner for the same reason i have rapidly come to dislike annie andrews and the same reason i don't like newsom — values matter, and throwing out homophobic or misogynistic or transphobic "jokes" display contempt for the values the overwhelming majority of party voters live by

"Why haven't I been working from my porch more" (Forty-five minutes later, covered in green pollen) Oh I remember

I'm sorry to be the bearer of bad news. The shipper... (takes off glasses, pinches bridge of nose) The shipper chose DHL. (unable to look you in the eye) We don't know when your package will arrive. We may never know.

My most batshit idea for a Constitutional amendment I legitimately believe would be helpful is that every census, state borders should be redistricted to ensure that all 50 states have roughly equal populations.

"In a solo dissent, Justice Sonia Sotomayor pointed out that... in turning Villarreal away, the Court extends the *strongest* version of qualified immunity to a stunt that is so flagrantly, cartoonishly illegal that, at least until now, no cop had been foolish enough to try it."

POUR IT DOWN HIS THROAT

it's not like the US attacked them during the last talks and then launched a decapitation strike, right

This is why the punishment has to be capital. It's the same treachery of the confederate states before the Civil War.

Canada is a fragile country held together too much by custom. The court is extremely unlikely to overturn Bill 21 this week - but I hope it issues a declaration of infringements of Charter rights, something powerful to make Canadians stop hitting the snooze alarm on our own democratic deficits.

Sports fans: imagine that Iran has blown up a tanker if you want, it will help you model the emotional experience of this team's nonexistent defense

This was incredible content as well as a very good argument.

People like this are fucking despicable and a movement that welcomes them deserves nothing but contempt

this really makes more sense from a vulgar Marxist perspective and this sort of criticism is sometimes avoided explicitly because Chomsky, specifically, dissolved any difference between normal relatively corporate media and what we have now

Over the past 12 months, how many times has the admin announced/leaked that they're going to do this? I have lost count www.cbsnews.com/news/fbi-irs...

DOW CEO SAYS HE IS APPRECIATING MARCUS AURELIAS MORE AND MORE

This is incredibly horrifying and also you know exactly how every part of this is going to go, like it's Mad Libs swapping out a megachurch or commune for the farmworker movement.

Vampires are definitely genetically linked to pterosaurs.

Why is the Federation so fascinated by nebulas They are on a five year mission to scan nebulas, the plot merely gets in the way of that singular passion

wait I thought audacity was supposed to be a refuge

I’ve seen enough of Il-09. No call, just, that’s enough.

i've got to get a fence because last year it wasn't so much a garden as a buffet for deer.

Trump’s abduction of Maduro and public rhapsodizing over his confidently expected conquest of Cuba also don’t fit Kent’s thesis. The bellicose behavior is coming from inside the house.

This is insane.
