"Would it help if I got out and pushed?"

Kinda makes one wonder how many troops Trump has gotten killed in this thing so far, because they're clearly lying about a lot of stuff.

The total lack of resistance merch in Andor was the one thing that series got wrong about fascism. Or maybe our glut of merch is wrong, idk.

[The Apollo 11 plaque] reads: "We came in peace for all Mankind." As the United States was dropping 7 ½ megatons of conventional explosives on small nations in Southeast Asia, we congratulated ourselves on our humanity. We would harm no one on a lifeless rock. - Carl Sagan

Like. Come on. Science is cool, and scientists are cool

It really does seem like performance art.

it also has this one

The New York Times deleted Trump’s “open the fuckin’ strait” line to make him look less insane Their write-up falsely says his post says only “Tuesday will be Power Plant Day, and Bridge Day, all wrapped up in one, in Iran. There will be nothing like it!!!” and “Praise be to Allah”

It's crazy that other countries haven't suspended diplomatic relations with the US until we get that whole thing sorted out.

Jon Hamm and January Jones are both very funny I think, so I wish there was like a funny cut of Mad Men.

Sad news from Washington D.C. today as, according to eyewitnesses, President Donald Trump's head suddenly fell straight down, tearing through his neck and upper torso like "wet tissue paper" before eventually oozing out a pant leg covered in feces and viscera. He was, what? Gotta be like 80 or 90.

Watching Train Dreams prepared for it to turn into a Portlandia sketch at any time.

Need a gif of Luzardo looking back at Stott.

Damn, Trea

One day, "It" will happen, by which I mean sudden and unexpected news that you want to celebrate. In such cases, you will want the right outfit. 🧵

Stephen Miller is in control of Trump's Twitter while Trump is in a coma, so none of these will technically count as his last words.

Giggling imagining Trump saying "Glory be to GOD" out loud.

This got a cheer that might end up being the loudest of the season at Target Field.

I feel like “the world passed peak gas-powered car sales in 2017” is not a widely known fact

the war demands my servants avail me with a grand ballroom

Iran took out a US Blackhawk helicopter, Newsmax reports. The crew is safe.

Okay, I'll bite, what is "bluesky"?

all of the lessons of the Trump era are the type you’d learn from a children’s book. you tried to use bullying to get what you want, but you alienated your allies, oh no! you have learned the power of friendship.

Every man has had these three exact roommates

New: I wrote about how the SPLC let union breaking and fear of MAGA drive it away from its own civil rights principles. After I spoke up about Gaza, the SPLC disciplined me and terminated my employment—leading to a discrimination settlement: substack.com/home/post/p-...

Klobuchar's campaign exists in a parallel universe. Weirdly disconnected from the real world.

Heavy weighs the burden of war on our sitting President.

Preparing for Easter by reflecting on the Elizabeth Hurley tweet

The best place to be when It happens would be a music venue mid-concert. A little drunk. A little sweaty. The news rippling through the crowd as people’s phones light up. An abrupt halt to a banger before the announcement is made from the stage. Everybody kissing like it’s V-J Day in Times Square.

they got captured in an extremely dumb way too (they were stationed in macedonia and somehow managed to accidentally wander over the border into serbia?). still, the incident managed to produce this photo, so who's to say if it's good or bad

20 years from now will be a great time to be a real estate lawyer, as landowners discover all the AI-generated legal descriptions surely getting recorded right now turn out to have significant errors.

there are two absolutely canonical Good Friday posts

Thirty-one years ago today, the New Orleans-based alternative rock band Better than Ezra released its hit single “Good,” marking the first-ever Good Friday, which has now grown into a major holiday celebrated throughout the world.

Yes this sounds right

The B1 bridge that the US destroyed today. There was pride in the bridge as an engineering feat, among the tallest and largest in the Middle East, built with 100% indigenous engineering & construction knowledge in a country sanctioned for nearly 50 years. Was to reduce commute time 1+ hr->10 min.

this is the chaplain btw. wonder why he was fired.

Try to imagine Pete Hegseth asking anyone to resign and not getting laughed at. You can't.

I think about this a lot.

why is this so funny

nasa employee: oh hey u guys are back early astronaut: Office365 in spaceship nasa employee: what? astronaut: *loading a pistol and getting back on the rocket-ship* Office365 in spaceship

Todd Blanche's great talent was to happen to be Trump's lawyer when time ran out on the prosecutions of Trump's crimes. He'll make a great AG!

cupping this headline in my hands to gently warm it, giving it a sniff, and then taking a delicate sip

What the fuck are we doing here man

Significant personal accomplishment for Trump that he made it over a year before clearing all the women out of his cabinet.
