I know that it's deranged conspiracy theory stuff, but I especially hate that this is also a scam targeting desperate people with real health problems. It reminds me of how evangelical faith healers do the same sort of thing. There's a special innermost circle of hell for such people.

This is all to distract from his planned 500% tariff on Bacta. The Thyferrans need to come to the table and make a deal.

the brain of the median voter needs to be studied for science

Ladies and gentlemen, the meritocracy

we are raising our dogs to be soft in this country

Even in his little pogrom fantasy he has vague "ex cons who love Jesus" doing the dirty work. His hands are far too soft for the death squads.

My apologies to Shane Gillis, I was not familiar with your game.

Can't be out of touch with your audience because you've become a reactionary millionaire if you just start performing for an audience of all reactionary millionaires.

And now I'm just spelunking around and here's this Facebook post by Kaleb Horton from September 2017. It was three months after MTV dumped its freelancers. I'm sure it would have been a piece there; instead he posted this on FB just to have it written out: Toys 'R' Us as societal microcosm.

Honestly, the description of him as seeming like he feels he has been chosen to negotiate the surrender of liberalism really feels apt.

The most accurate recreation of DS9 I've seen.

This is why the whole "don't be mad at Jeffries/Schumer, be mad at Republicans" refrain falls flat. The wrong Democrats winning, in this particular scenario, is every bit as existential a problem as it precludes the needed reforms just as much as a Republican victory does.

we are gonna win the intra-party battle on the need for broad-scale democracy-enhancing reforms, the only question is whether we do so soon enough for it to matter

The Khan scared them off of Chicago so they made a beeline for the part of the country where we keep our pushover Democrats.

This, I think, is the real reason Republicans don’t want to nuke the filibuster and go it alone even though they can. Forcing Democrats to vote for it, even if through explicit threats and coercion, will mean it gets reported as a “bipartisan funding measure.” They want dem fingerprints on it.

No test no steroids no hair transplants no nothing if you’re gonna be a piece of shit to us.

I’m all for getting whatever cosmetic surgery you want and not being shamed for it but if these Rogan orbiter freaks are gonna be transphobic they shouldn’t be allowed to do this sort of mtm transitions.

the evidence in favor of the traditional understand of the birthright citizenship clause is so overwhelming that a bunch of conservative legal hacks had to conjure a fake literature int existence to create the appearance of dispute. i expect the court to side with trump, of course.

If there's a pedophile at the table and 10 other people sitting there talking to him about business, that's a table with eleven pedophiles.

No matter what this meeting is about, Pete will always be a National Guardsman assigned to a Civil Affairs unit who got a bunch of crusader tattoos in his 40s because he wants you to think he's a cool, war-criming operator instead of an extremely online wife-beating loser

hegseth, like trump, has a sexual fixation on atrocities and considers consensual sex to be inferior to rape

Dave Matthews has the opportunity to do the funniest thing.

It's good to see that Zach Woods has only become more powerful and based with time.

Dumper and The Judge sounds like a morning show that got suspended immediately for making racist jokes and prank calling the fire department

Being a delivery driver is not some sort of ontological good that counteracts the bad of being a fucking Republican, like what are we doing here?

there's a good article to be written somewhere about the context and history behind "a joke," not in the sense of "a remark meant to be amusing" but as in "a remark that can retroactively be declared insincere and therefore insignificant"

Read theory

Trump thinks that he was convicted of crimes because his enemy Joe Biden was President so now he's President and he can convict his enemies of crimes, it does not even occur to him that the reason he was convicted of crimes is because he was guilty of them.

It gets worse, Mr. President - they did save the security tapes for the escalators like you asked but there's a missing minute every night!

Look it's the Internet, it's all over the world, maybe he hasn't shot himself yet in their time zone.

Chotiner: So you chose to kill your slavewomen as well as the suitors who had taken over your home. Why? Odysseus: Well, I was in a frenzy understandably, plus they had probably slept with the suitors. C: Ah. And as slaves did they do this voluntarily? O: I didn’t ask because C: They were dead?

Let's hear her out, maybe she means, like, "invited him to the White House".

“CIA footage of god” is truly one of the great little phrases of all time. Distills centuries of paranoid lunacy into just a few words. Amazing. I’ll never forget it.

To save anybody else a Google, Tom Kenny is fine.

The CIA captured the Judeo-Christian God in a special operation in 1971 and trained him to play chess before eventually giving him to an Afghan mujahideen battalion under Operation Cyclone, who used him to shoot down Soviet helicopters until he was tragically KIA.

And now for something completely different

That's a rough nickname

"Anyway, let's round that up to an hour."

He looks like Hypebeast Julius Caesar.

"Classic set up for an assassination hit" yeah the cops were trying to get there in time but two guys were slowly carrying a huge glass panel across the street.

Having spent a lot of time around old money types, it’s always been notable to me that the extent of their “social liberalism” is rooted in the fact that their children could always potentially be gay, but would never be black.

You tell 'em, yassified Stephen Miller.

Good luck to all!

What I gather from the Chotiner interview is that Cass Sunstein has authored a defense of liberalism where liberals are defined as those who he could imagine encountering at a Harvard faculty meeting.

Isaac Chotiner has invited me to sample some delicious Amontillado wine and I don’t know guys but I think I’m going to come out of this interview seeming like *quite* the wine expert

Isaac please don't put in the newspaper that I loved Henry Kissinger
