It’s so funny you can just buy THC at the grocery store and it changed basically nothing about society

A24’s ‘Elden Ring’ Film Stalled After Red Phantom Named TwinkPunisher Invades Set https://theonion.com/a24s-elden-ring-film-stalled-after-red-phantom-named-twinkpunisher-invades-set/

how about instead we enroll every child until the age of death and stop having the dumbest healthcare system in the world for once

but seriously though, first she was all about “you won’t release your tax returns” and “i’m the only non-millionaire in the race” but then he did, and he’s not even close to a millionaire. so she’s moving the goalposts and demanding even more, looking for a gotcha. desperate and sad.

This is a good and brand new interview with John Carpenter

Very happy to see Victorinox on the good list. My Fibrox chef’s knife has been going strong for at least a decade, probably closer to 15. Whenever it gives up the ghost, I’ll just buy another one.

good article and, crucially, a good list at the end of cookware/kitchenware lines that are still quality (and family owned)

also worth noting, the rally was indoors.

it’s giving

I took a hard look at the financial donors to ICE’s biggest supporters in Congress. These are people who want to significantly expand ICE’s power and have sponsored or co-sponsored legislation to do so. Here are the top 25 consumer brands bankrolling the biggest ICE supporters in Congress:

Hmmmm, agree to disagree

this looks like shit, acting is shit, cinematography is shit. if you asked, looks like a knock-off from The Asylum but worse.

whoa. i would have been so sure she’d back Stevens.

honest question: how come soccer games go until someone (the refs?) just decides that it’s over? is there any framework for how long the game actually goes?

the voting public’s “positions” are largely malleable, especially in response to a charismatic leader. most people have a handful of immutable positions, usually religious or strongly emotional/cultural, and the rest are fluid. if Trump said “Medicare for All”, the GOP would back it.

they’re freaking out on the sylvanian families subreddit over the ban on baby bodies

This, from food safety attorney Bill Marler, is so much better than anything I've seen from the FDA.

Undertone (2025) no

It just shouldn't be this…sh-hard…

i'm sorry but if my opponent put out a press release telling everyone to be nicer to be i would be mortified lmao

I SAID WHAT I SAID

stepped outside to take out trash (Grand Rapids, MI) and it smells like burning wood. like immediately upon opening the door. i’m smelling canada

Air Quality Index at home right now is a robust 747

GOD DAMN Jose Canseco would have loved AI

Someone called the cyclospora outbreak MAHA Blast and I'm cackling like I'm 13 again.

Raffi you’re so right

you're absolutely right - your grandma is in danger, and I'm going to make sure she gets the iTunes gift cards she needs to survive

It is also supposed to be 93F (33.8C). And we are the epicenter for the cyclosporiasis outbreak in the US: www.michigan.gov/mdhhs/inside... So it appears that Michigan may be the epicenter for the 2026 apocalypse... 🥳🎉

Not the stat you want- but my state has the worst air quality on planet earth today... with my town being one of the worst.

11/ Washing helps, but it won’t fully remove the parasite. Water removes some of it, but not all, because it clings and hides in nooks and crannies. Cooking will kill it, (min 158 degrees at the core), though I recognize “just cook your salad” isn’t a satisfying solution.

Listening to St. Anger, eh

Rep. Haley Stevens reports receiving nearly $40k in contributions directly bundled by AIPAC.

Guess which candidate for Senate in Michigan just voted to continue giving Israel free weapons for forever

would like to note that an ad accusing El-Sayed of misogyny has been circulating here since McMorrow dropped out, and the Freep (who endorsed McMorrow) actually debunked it: www.freep.com/story/news/p...

This article is insane. Conflating El-Sayed (said Stevens was bad at speaking [she is]) with Platner (multiple plausible accusations of assault and rape) is disgusting. And @scholten.house.gov You should be ashamed. What a horrible thing to say without any evidence.

george lucas, renowned for not misusing new tech in the worst possible way, has a hot take

You want to know what never happened in Michigan until like 5-7 years ago? Wildfire smoke from Canada (and the west). Now it is Every. Single. Summer. These places burn and smoke flows in from an absurd distance. The smoke is at the bridge and should be in GR by this afternoon.

this is exactly why centrist Dems will always lose. this isn’t a “ya gotta ask permission” kinda situation! there is zero factual basis for Trump wanting to send troops to election sites. ZERO. he’s just being a bully, again. the correct response is telling him to fuck off. full stop.

China now makes 75 percent of all E.V.s sold anywhere on earth. The United States makes around 5 percent. It is not just that China has lapped the US on E.V.s The US does not seem to have a plan to catch up.

Good morning, Michiganders. Today it will be unsafe to breathe outside without a mask, eat salad, be outside for too long in the heat, be away from a toilet, and count on the electric grid to hold up under peak demand. Also, our additional escape route to Canada is still closed. Have a pleasant day.

i had no idea this would become so literal

Has there been a more pathetic and ineffective leader of the House Democrats in our lifetimes? I can't think of one.

Happy Bastille Day

All of my DEEP Michigan friends are like, “what in the fuck kind of accent is that??” In case anyone thinks this is how actual Michiganders talk.

“the michigan way” uhhhh
