So you CAN get reparations you just have to be a reactionary white person who tries to overthrow the government because black votes shouldn’t count

This guy is giving Tucker Carlson delivery with JD Vance face and I don’t like it

Slightly increase a band. Portugal. The Men.

Let them drink Lysol.

These days, I replace most of it with sadness.

"[...] promover eleições gerais de uma Assembleia Nacional Constituinte, cujos poderes por sua representatividade e liberdade na eleição permitam ao Pafs escolher livremente a sua forma de vida social e política." @25abril1974.bsky.social

La Mathématique, c'est moi

GOP - *gerrymanders* DEMS - hey stop that no fair GOP - *gerrymanders even more* DEMS - we mean it we’re gonna sue SCOTUS - *legalizes gerrymandering completely* DEMS - *start gerrymandering* GOP - HEY STOP THAT NO FAIR!!!! 😭

The new world order is a sitcom.

Me, an atheist: Your holiness I stand ready to join the crusade against these heretics

The Portuguese government is asking the US to provide information on a bunch of these things being shipped in containers to the Lajes Air Base in Azores and getting assembled there. The answer may end up being "Maximum lethality, not tepid legality. STFU" en.wikipedia.org/wiki/General...

Sulphur. Indeed, the times have a whiff of Apocalypse.

He's making me rethink the validity of phrenology.

One has to pinch oneself.

There's a hauntingly beautiful irony in these morons thinking that carefully crafted American hegemony was actually weak and woke, and they would be the ones who would do Power and Dominance properly, and immediately bringing everything crashing down

You know what used to bother me? That this could actually be a great country, a model for how a society with extreme wealth could work for the well-being of all, rationally and compassionately. For humans, animals, and the natural world. It doesn't bother me anymore because I no longer think that.

One of the problems in a concentration camp regime is that institutions tend to respond to authority the way they always have, and are often incapable of shifting gears to acknowledge in any panoramic way exactly how bad the situation as a whole has become.

"Cars are the most absurd means of transport in a city. They are parked 95 per cent of the time. It takes two tonnes to move someone who weighs 70 kilogrammes. And the denser the city, the more absurd it is."

Narratively having Ever Given getting stuck in 2021 to set up Hormuz in 2026 is great foreshadowing. You want your audience to understand the basics of international shipping in a lower stakes context so you drop the real plot without a lot of saggy exposition about the minutiae of cargo logistics.

"We started a war of aggression for no reason & commenced it by accidentally bombing an elementary school & killing over 100 kids." That simple fact is so horrific that it's just kind of bouncing on the surface of our collective consciousness. We can't absorb its full implications & significance.

Tariffs.

WHAT IF YOU JUST READ A FUCKING BOOK

Yes, let's mock bros in their stupid Child Crusher 5000s and soccer moms in their Grand Wagoneers, but there are plenty of lower-income, car dependent people who don't have other options and don't have the money to absorb sustained increases in gas prices.

We will never forget how Darius viciously attacked the Judeo-Christian world and tried to erase our culture in 480 BC in Kips Bay.

Now she knows how that puppy felt.

This could easily be said by a marionette in Team America: World Police word for word

Truly the Fyre Festival of strategic campaigns.

I'm already sick of "It's all a distraction from Epstein" replies. This regime is killing innocent people because our leaders are all power-hungry tyrants and war profiteers. When you say it's "just a distraction" you minimize the gravity of what's happening and the lives lost.

Estou muito orgulhoso desta reportagem que publiquei na piauí semana passada. Ela traz a experiência de quase cinco décadas frequentando bancas pelo Brasil e pelo mundo, primeiro com supervisão de adultos e nos últimos 40 anos com meus próprios pés. E ainda toca na questão da era pós-vergonha.

The Gaudreau tribute is a horrible reminder of the danger that cyclists and pedestrians face in this country every day.

Yoon and Prince Andrew wishing they had a friend like John Roberts.

Knowing real well that the city may bring him down like it did to so many before, if I lived in NYC it would still be a month or two before I kicked the habit of waking up, remembering the Mayor's name was Zohran Kwame Mamdani, and smiling.

Someone needs to say “Who the fuck are you?” to this guy’s face Seriously push these nerds down a flight of stairs on sight

Me and the three people who read my skeets

Yeah, yeah, I know there's a bazillion of these takes. Here's mine: "Democracy Dies When We Say It Dies. And It Puts The Lotion In The Basket"

Shout it from the rooftops.

Shout it from the rooftops.

Agora para os lá de casa: Alguém leva a sério esta suposta candidatura do Tó-Zé? Quer dizer, além do próprio (e mesmo aí não tenho a certeza)

Guilty. What I signaled was "I may be a pile of toxic waste avoided by friends, despised by coworkers, and ~ checks ~ as of now still tolerated by the wife, but even I don't want to be associated with your hellish oeuvre any longer, asshole"

It's a shame somebody taught you how to write.

Para contextualizar os incêndios em L.A. Uma espécie de antes e depois.

"How did 1930s fascism gain a foothold in Europe so quickly, you ask? Well, we prepared an experiment for you. Why read books about it, when you can live it?"
