The same people pretending to want to isolate children from the internet for their own good argue that it is correct to beat their children when they misbehave. They know what they are doing. The state just wants to further enshrine the parent-child relationship as one of ownership.

People who perform colonoscopies should not be attractive.

That's called a Dictatorship.

Tyrants are usually stupid, short sighted people, history has borne that out. The ones that lasted only lasted because they couldn't control information/rumours and that's even worse now for them. One of the things to consider, this is a profoundly stupid regime. Their ATTEMPT to control info....

since it seems like a supreme court majority doesn't believe in independent govt agencies, can the govt stop believing in the supreme court

Why should we pay attention to red states? Everybody in this country just lost access to student loan forgiveness because of the state of Missouri. You don’t need a coup when you can bribe red state AGs.

Proud of what you have “accomplished,” Republicans??? substack.com/@ellenmitche...

The first family corruption continues.

Everyone I know is sick, almost all of them sound like Dracula, and I'm coming to the realization we will not have any idea what any of this shit even is until the Felchfather is out of office.

Release the files … unredacted …. NOW.

Lithuania on Tuesday ⁠declared a state of emergency and asked parliament to authorise military support for police and border guards after a wave of smuggler balloons ‍from Belarus ⁠repeatedly disrupted air traffic in recent months.

Nuzzi’s editor hates her. I don’t see a lot of that. What’s wrong with that book is what editors are there for. They can’t fix it if you have nothing to say, but they can make you look less illiterate. Some editor is angry it fell in their laps.

All the politicians I've known care only about our monetary and campaign support. They do not care about what we need. We cease to exist the day after the election.

WHERE ARE THE EPSTEIN FILES???

Carl Jung isn't exactly LESS full of shit than Freud, but he's admittedly full of shit in a much more entertaining way. "Guy who's basically a practising wizard but gets super annoyed if you point that out and loudly insists he's a Man of Science" is a type of guy you don't see much of these days.

I need some good low-cost but feels significant gift ideas.

So. Rep Crockett announced her TX campaign for US Senate. Good. Voters get a choice in the primary. They can research the candidates, find their positions on issues and choose. She's getting ultra-gerrymandered out of her Rep seat, so why not take the shot. It's a primary. Not a coliseum fight.

We knew Kansas City liked to read, but give yourselves a round of applause for 355,278 total checkouts and renewals in 2025! 👏 'James' by Percival Everett was checked out 323 times alone! Swipe through to see the Library's year-end recap. What was your favorite book you read this year? 📚 (1/2)

I think healthcare systems should be easier to navigate.

Wow -- Russia reportedly plotted last year to plant bombs on US-bound flights (gift link) giftarticle.ft.com/giftarticle/...

It’s gonna be so cool when the only movies left in theatres are, like, a sixth try at a Superman reboot and Triumph of the Will 2: Electric Boogaloo

PIERS: “You’re not gay?” FUENTES: “No. But women are very difficult to be around.” P: “Should they vote?” F: “No.” PIERS: “They should stay home?” FUENTES: “Yeah.” PIERS: “So you’re just a misogynistic dinosaur. Have you ever had sex?” FUENTES: “No.” PIERS: “Wow. Says the guy who never got laid.”

Just to piss them off, we should start calling the AG Pam-ALLAH, like they did to Kamala Harris.

Consumer Reports ranks Teslas as the least reliable used cars. "The best of the worst [ten] was Chevrolet at a score of 40. But Tesla makes that failing grade seem respectable with its absolute rock bottom rating of 31, trailing Jeep by just one point.” futurism.com/advanced-tra...

I remember when I learned that Tim Allen was convicted of felony drug trafficking when he was caught with like half a pound of cocaine and only served 2 years and I thought, "huh, that's kinda brief for the war on drugs ppl."

Israeli forces shot and killed a Palestinian in the town of Azzun on Sunday. The violence came as Israeli media reported Israel’s far-right Finance Minister Bezalel Smotrich has set aside more than $830 million to fund 17 new settlements in the occupied West Bank over the next five years.

It’s not that I don’t feel bad for farmers, but you know how the old saying goes, you reap what you sow. You reap bankruptcy when you sow a grifting madman. Now we all suffer the financial consequences.

The best m&m is peanut butter. I will be taking no further comments.

I’m so full of mucus. 😞

ICE is out of control. They're operating with impunity. They're doing things and getting away with stuff that regular cops, even your typical federal agents, can't do. And we're just sitting back and taking it all in why? ICE must be destroyed.

With a bunch of new folks around from the "Physical RPG Zines" post, wanted to take a quick second to plug this post which is about every game I made my friends read with me this year/all the games I played since some of these are still on sale right now! I know Salvage Union's bundle is almost up!

Oh my heart. Fur babies are so important, even at the #endoflife. @3wishesprogram.bsky.social

This entire grift relies on convincing people that they don't know how to do the things they have always known how to do, and ironically, if it works, we will, in a very short amount of time, forget how to do all the things we have always known how to do.

Craig Murray The Palestine hunger strikers in jail are moving into the period where irreversible damage can be done and death becomes a real danger. I had not understood how serious the situation is. None of them are convicted, and there is no need to keep them in jail at all.

Ossoff: "This is so much deeper than the politics. What does it say about the moral condition of this Congress that the thing that has them all tied up in knots is a very simple question: Should people's health insurance premiums go up double or triple? This is a policy choice."

Just a thought: when we now accept that we have been at war with Russia probably since Crimea and it now transpired the USA security strategy is aligned with Russia's, are we at war with Trump's USA?

Except for the last decade or so he's been publishing absolute garbage - ‘He’s a son of a bitch – but he’s usually right’: why did Seymour Hersh quit the film about his earth-shattering exposés? www.theguardian.com/film/2025/de...

You know, every time I feel like I should be mad at Trump the more I remember how pathetic he is… Anyway, where are those Epstein Files?

We know that sea turtles exist in Zandalar, so it’s completely believable that they have tortoises too. What if my Zandalari farmers had a huge pet sulcata? What if their tortoise gets into the crops? Eats all their peppers? I can picture Mahi’ji yelling furiously, and Kumara laughing about it.

A president cannot defend a nation if he is not held accountable to its laws.

“I brought this horrid creature into the world, and now I must take him out!” Winfrey said

In line for the TSA behind this guy

Happy Feast of the Immaculate Conception!

kesha was so right when she said stop ta-ta-talkin that blah blah blah

I’m so close to drinking a bunch of NyQuil and making out with my pillow.
