Broke: midsommar is a movie about bad relationships Woke: midsommar is a movie about white supremacists Bespoke: midsommar is a movie about how grad students should be killed

Now the Ref is flopping? Smh

Step one: lose war Step two: sign controversial peace deal in Versailles Step three: political leaders blame defeat on Jews Step four: oh no

an eruv does substantially less damage to a child's mental state than the elf on a shelf does, and it is two thousand years old instead of invented in 2005

A Black man with the surname Freeman scored for the USA on Juneteenth in a home World Cup match.

As to be a puppy in summer.

Happy Juneteenth, Illinois. The fight is far from over, but today reminds us how important it is to be champions of freedom, justice, and equity in our nation — even in the face of intimidation.

To paraphrase a possibly apocryphal comment by Ben Gurion, we’ll know it’s a normal holiday when there is commercialization and appropriation.

The only people who hate X-Cutioners Song are those who are willing to suffer the amenities of hallways. #facts

As we celebrate Juneteenth, we honor the power and resilience of Black Americans throughout American history. Today is an opportunity to reflect on the progress we’ve made in the fight for freedom and justice, and a reminder that our work is far from over.

Iran negotiating the deal: this is all conditional on peace in Lebanon US: where? sure, w/e Israel: absolutely not Iran signing the deal: this is all conditional on peace in Lebanon US: yeah yeah whatever you say Israel: not happening Iran: okay pausing the deal US: finally, we can- wait WHAT

Happy Juneteenth from NJN! Juneteenth commemorates the end of slavery in the US, when news of the Emancipation Proclamation reached Texas on June 19th, 1865. Juneteenth is a second Independence Day, a more credible claim to the United States' purported values of democracy and equality.

The 4 political parties in the UK are: [Gruff voice] "were evil" [Posh voice] "we're evil" "Trans people are evil and Brexit was a good idea" "Please never mention the fact that we went into government with [posh voice] "We're evil" party

Can confirm: This is real.

The problem with the Jimmy Olsen and Gorilla Grodd show is that nothing will beat what Legends of Tomorrow did with Grodd, with him trying to kill young Obama

Amusing to hear British announcers refer to seeing “the Mexican wave, here in Mexico, appropriately enough” to U.S. viewers, who only know it as the wave. There’s nothing uniquely Mexican about it. It’s just that the first time Europeans saw it was during the 1986 World Cup in Mexico.

Bibi made two catastrophic errors regarding Trudeau’s elephant in bed: 1) assuming that the American left wing was as dead as the Israeli one 2) assuming that the American right wing would always be full of neocons and now both of them are going to fuck all of Israel over

when you invalidate people's most intimate and important human relationships, they *will* keep talking about it, buddy

love when bigots highlight their bigotry and then say "hey hey hey all I wanna do is play baseball" my guy, if you had just played baseball there wouldn't have been any issues

If you watch the Obama Library, the World Cup, and the Knicks parade this afternoon -- and nothing else -- you can actually see the America we're supposed to be at age 250

Oil refineries only do this when they are stressed.

If he were a Columbia student and said this his citizenship would be revoked

The longer version of this post on Facebook states that the can contains not just the clips used on TOTP but the whole studio session, with two whole takes of each song, two false starts on Can't Buy Me Love, and footage captured during the breaks. An amazing find.

pulling this shit in indie ball is grim. hating gay people so much you'd rather go back to working at autozone than be a professional athlete is insane

The implication of this "New York Times" headline is that "goy" is simply a slang term used by Generation Z now, no longer attached to antisemitic implications. I think this is not only wrong, but rather dangerous for the newspaper to be printing.

Continuously drives me insane that folks don't understand that in the U.S., primaries are where you can pick which candidate you will run with, and the general is where you decide which party will win. If you think the candidate sucks, why are you not voting in the primary!?

Who Drove Israel's Diplomatic Suicide Bus: Trump or Netanyahu? www.haaretz.com/opinion/2026...

part of why people who think Israel controls the US government/media/Presidency always sound so ridiculous is that you need to believe not only that the US is naive & morally pure but also that Israel is smart enough to manipulate everyone but so stupid that they’re shocked by Trump being Trump

Here's the Iran-US MoU, and it's pretty much a severe strategic defeat and capitulation for the US and a massive strategic and economic victory for Iran. Really an utter humiliation for the US thanks to Trump's naked incompetence. edition.cnn.com/2026/06/17/m...

Advantage of being in California on Central Time: I was able to get out for a run this morning.

This is a sign of how culturally Protestant we remain. When someone says something bigoted, there is an attempt to find what is “really in their heart,” which is by definition radically private and unknowable, rather than simply focusing on their actions in the world.

Amen. Post 2007, Pre 2014 Facebook was amazing.

In a year or two I will finally have my custom Omnibus' of this entire era.

Dietrich Bonhoeffer was an anti-fascist German Lutheran pastor who opposed Hitler and the Nazi Party so effectively that they murdered him in 1945. He is only a bad guy if you literally spend all your time on far-right, neo-Nazi websites and have pickled your brain in fascist group chats.

This is how couples argue today: Husband: wow cool how there's 4 bottles of madeira in the hold and none to go with my soused hogs face. Normal World also Husband: those are my Catalan independence celebration wines???? But ok go off

I have yet to see a 'How they should bring back Doctor Who' piece which doesn't pretty much describe what they tried in either the Whittaker era or the Ncuti era...

Oh no.

As a Democrat, if you aren't standing up and speaking loudly against tyranny—you're doing it wrong.

Chicago is on pace to collect $49.2 million during the first year of Mayor Brandon Johnson’s groundbreaking tax on social media companies — nearly 60% above the city’s original estimate — raising the stakes for a court challenge by Big Tech.

Wow, this Saudi goalkeeper is almost as good as the Saudi Government is in bribing people to forget the fact that they chopped up a reporter with an axe.

As Jews, our belief in kavod habriyot — the dignity of all people — underscores our commitment to making sure no one is discriminated against based on who they are or who they love. It's time to make Bostock's protections permanent and pass legislation to protect LGBTQ+ people now.

I revived the Hangingsliders newsletter and went long on the @sfgiants.com's embarrassing and homophobic Pride Night. hangingsliders.beehiiv.com/p/the-giants...

Reminder for everyone who hasn't had the energy to watch a show about getting trapped in a time loop since 2020, season 1 of Russian Doll, is VERY good.

I like that Heroes In Crisis is framed as a Crisis. What is a Crisis? It's when continuity gets untangled and universes die: HIC takes those ideas and transposes them to the individual level. What happens when your internal continuity - your sense of self - is wiped out?

Time for another trip back to the Bay Area for work!
