Alexander Hamilton, in re Political Demagogues, 1792. Happy Independence Day.

Good Morning. The weather in Queens New York will be hot and humid, with highs in the creaky floors stopped creaking and a heat index of yes literally even the stairs not fucking peep.

Stock trades by President. The blatant corruption is just staggering

These people are performing for grass.

The US-Israel-Iran war is the most male coded violent global economic disaster since the last needless, horrific and violent global economic disaster

Mike Rogers seems to be laying out his plot for the general election: run against Hasan Piker. Sure, it didn't work with Cuomo. And it didn't work with McMorrow. But maybe this time it will.

We all worked so hard: writing postcards, talking to other voters, etc, and they folded the minute they were in office. Fuck 'em. Give us fighters.

That’s because modern democrats haven’t done a fucking thing to help us in 6-8 years. Donald Trump won the first time, they said to us, “you better fucking vote this time” and so we did, and they haven’t done fuck all since.

twitter: father’s day is for men. real men. men who never wore a dress. men who drive fast. men who don’t have custody or visitation. bluesky: shout out to the fathers and the daddies

Sometimes Gandalf had incredible powers as other times, inexplicably, he had (or used) almost none. This inconsistency is present in virtually all of the battles he participates in, and that is why Stan Lee is a better writer than J.R.R. Tolkien. I will not be taking questions at this time.

tired of the "#1 dad" nonsense. if you're a dad, stop treating it like a joke and post your actual national dad ranking. i'm # 492,018, which is actually really high up there, but more importantly it lets me enter ranked dad lobbies where i can get matched up for fistfights with dads of my caliber

Did DoD just admit in a court filing that it used xAI's Grok Gov Model to hit the girls' school on the first day of the Iran war? Based on some passages flagged by @rgoodlaw.bsky.social in DoD's recent filing in NAACP's case against X, it looks like it did 1/

The congressional switchboard number is (202) 224-3121. Put it in your cell phone. Use it. If you're not calling at least once a week, you're not doing your part.

Frye has never been more right.

The party of performative masculinity truly contains multitudes

One of the most demoralizing themes of our current time is not that people like the Tate brothers exist - they have always existed. It’s that, for a time at least, they were driven into the shadows. They lost society’s endorsement. But they have once again become the template for a whole generation.

No, they sex traffic vulnerable and desperate women, they use emotional, physical, financial, and sexual abuse to entrap them. They tattoo their names onto women’s bodies, rape them, enslave them on webcams and blackmail when they try to leave. This was all laid out in the recent New Yorker article.

I don’t care that these guys explicitly prefer the exclusive company of men. I care that they prefer the exclusive company of men, but they sell that as “feminine,” (whatever the fuck that means), so they horrifically abuse women as a convincing performance of heteronormativity.

youre not going to believe this but the dumb assholes we put in charge have fucked everything up

why is the iran deal still a secret

We have no idea just how far behind the United States will be in 2028. We'll have nothing: no national science infrastructure, no agricultural progress, no medical progress. The oligarch class has decided to hollow America out in a hedge fund takeover. We are being robbed of our future.

Yeah sorry

SPEECHLESS. LFGK

That’s called a bribe.

Men lacking any societal expectation to emotionally regulate themselves outside of by subordination via other systems of power and therefore viewing a leveling of the playing field between men as the ultimate justice and using every perceived level playing field as an opportunity to do violence.

Two men, aged 41 and 21, on a dark road at the edge of town over Memorial Day weekend. They didn’t know each other. Their lives intersected a single time, for minutes at most. Road rage. Both pulled guns and shot each other. Now they are both dead. What the fuck are we doing?

Their new girlfriend is women

We’re saying address the sexism men propagate since that’s where the problem originates and the power exists.

Do people realize that most feminist voices in media (orators, print, film, [now] socials) weren’t just relentlessly attacked, they were drowned in it - they faded to a shell or even ended their own lives. That’s the point of course. Misogynists will love to read this. I just wonder if people know.

When history is written Trump will have single handedly have put American Foreign Policy in the trash bin Ukraine will never forgive us NATO countries will never trust Other countries will never respect us Our enemies will prey on our vulnerabilities It will take generations to undo this

Congratulations on your wedding Don Jr. Sorry for distracting your Dad with this important work.

I think maybe giving everyone unrestricted access to the infinite validation machine was a bad idea

Whenever and however this ends, assuming that happens before a total collapse, the American taxpayer will be forced to pull our bankrupt country back from the brink, because we cannot afford to borrow it and no one is going to lend it to us for that reason, among others.

HUGE NEWS: ICE’s courthouse arrests have been STAYED by a New York district judge. That means that ICE will have to stop arresting our immigrant neighbors on the spot when they show up to court at places like 26 Federal Plaza, 290 Broadway, and 201 Varick. (1/2)

“.. This is an insane amount of trades,” he said, adding that it looks more like something done by “a hedge fund with massive algo trades” that buys and shorts securities than a personal account. @bloomberg.com www.bloomberg.com/news/article...

happy birthday to moms

Michelle Obama warned everyone. Kamala Harris warned everyone. Hillary Clinton warned everyone.

We've reached the point where one party has so obliterated the rule of law that everyone else continuing to abide by it will only hasten the end of our democracy. That's a recipe for chaos and violence. It's terrifying, and I don't know what we do about it.

One side is like “can we disenfranchise all the Black voters by this weekend” and the other is like gotta follow the rules that govern the rules that control the rulebook
