The number of times the ghostly echo of a generic 2024 voter saying "I don't like the mean tweets but he'll be good for the economy" runs through my head every day lately...

I really just want them all to die

TIRED: 2025 historians on Roman Empire - "Well, consider they used to sprinkle mercury on their wine to make it taste better." WIRED: 4025 historians on American Empire - "Well, consider they invented a giant plagiarism machine that convinced people to commit suicide."

Current events are leading to an increase of people making Trump/Marie Antoinette jokes. So I'm here to remind everyone *one more time* - The "let them eat cake" line never happened, is totally not in line with Marie Antoinette's character, and is misogynistic bullshit. So knock it off. Please.

Geez, libs, c'mon, he's *PRAYING*! Because he's a *CHRISTIAN*! Of some kind!

If the government shutdown carries on through Thanksgiving no turkeys will be pardoned this year, all turkeys will be considered guilty and will immediately be hunted to extinction

Absolute insanity. There is now absolutely no way for any sane person to conclude anything other than that Republicans plan to keep government shut down permanently.

Baseball player brags about hitting baseball

Can you speak Arabic and Mandarin and care about facts and ethics? Here's $70,000! Can you regurgitate a bunch of fawning bullshit about the fraudulent technology that is A.I.? Here's a quarter of a million dollars!

Submitting this sentence for Pulitzer consideration

Room profoundly unread

I am ready to light many things on fire

I feel like more and more people are catching on to the very easy and very correct strategy of "Just look at what gazillionaires want to happen and support the opposite"

Pretty good password because people sometimes get tripped up on the U-V-R-E part

Face-eating leopards' anti-face-eating-leopard taskforce to cut ties with face-eating leopards

The man once disgusted by a dying 80-year-old has become the dying disgusting 80-year-old man! Such irony!

One of the reasons Mamdani won is that we live in a society where someone has 13 million dollars they can light on fire and not notice.

Does this not technically constitute tampering with evidence?

What I'm hearing is that we're all cool to throw sandwiches at ICE now

This photograph had better win a goddamn Pulitzer

I'm not an economist, is this bad?

This is probably right

It's pretty obvious now that among antisemitism's growing definitions is "being Muslim and having any opinion"

Fucked up way to announce the death of actor John Krasinski

Can we please finally concede that polling is hopelessly fucking broken and no longer of value for predicting election outcomes?

Happy Not No Kings Per Se But Just This One Very Specific King Day

Things went so badly for the Republicans last night that they weren't even able to get a Democrat elected

"Yes, hello, is this the Louvre?"

The irony here is that the only thing stopping Republicans from being EVEN MORE UNPOPULAR THAN THEY ALREADY ARE is their inability to force their agenda through Congress. And Trump wants to reverse that. Because he is a staggeringly, historically stupid person.

Democrats, run cool people that people like, I promise it will work

Well he's ALSO saying that he should have been the Republican candidate in every election so this is the rare bleet that highlights his idiocy AND his insanity simultaneously

This is literally the first time in decades that New Yorkers have not selected their mayor by painstakingly seeking out the shittiest and most universally disliked person in the city.

If Sliwa had dropped out and literally everyone who voted for Sliwa flipped to Cuomo, Cuomo would still have lost.

Trump is gonna name Cuomo like Secretary of Being The Real Mayor of New York or some shit

Shit I just realized Mayor Mamdani is kind of a tongue twister.

The bad news is that he will be doing it on News Nation, a channel nobody knows exists or how to find.

Seems like people aren't too kean on this Trump fella

It's probably fair to say thar Season 2 of Stranger Things is its weakest, but I gotta say that the final scene at the Snow Ball might well be the series' strongest and most emotionally rewarding sequence.

THIS IS MORE IMPORTANT THAN DICK CHENEY OH MY GOD

I hate to boost the NYT, but good for Michelle Goldberg for so clearly articulating the real story of what's going on with Nick Fuentes, since so many in the mainstream media are fucking clueless.

Do they know that different places are allowed to have different candidates?

I'm torn because I do believe the smell of onions and mustard constitute a violation of basic human rights

We should not celebrate the death of Dick Cheney but mourn the fact that it didn't happen 30 years ago.

Post a bird announcing Dick Cheney is dead

I for one think it was a genuine strategic blunder for Mamdani to have professed himself a JEW HATER, a very real thing that definitely happened in the world and not just in the dementia-addled brain of this deranged maniacal freak

Happy November! This week we do things a little differently as we have a special Clint Eastwood-themed episode with a look at TWO movies, 1999's TRUE CRIME and 2024's JUROR #2. Joining us this time is Aaron from the great podcast @hitfactorypod.bsky.social Here or wherever you get podcasts!

Oh cool Dick Cheney died

I genuinely don't understand why Tucker having Nick Fuentes on his show is in any way controversial given that there is literally no daylight between their beliefs.

I just love Mamdani so much that I feel bad we're about to give him one of the nation's shittiest jobs
