In February, USA Rugby banned trans women from all levels of one of the world’s most inclusive sports. What happened next was telling. Across the country, teams refused to comply. The story of the Baltimore Ferals, who are pushing back: www.thebanner.com/sports/rugby...

Draw your sword for what you love, coward, rather than only for what you hate

you should shut the fuck up forever about chuck Schumer or whoever not being 'willing to fight' if ever the mere suggestion of this gets you to clutch your pearls.

this is a very normal and non-threatening verification code, thanks GEICO!

Placebo has a new album out. That’s neat.

The Dutch equivalent of Cass, (except it’s a proper scientific review not pseudoscientific drivel like Cass) has wholeheartedly endorsed puberty-blockers and full gender affirming care for young trans people.

Fish people, Italians, either way Lovecraft was terrified of them

everybody worthwhile agrees that food insecurity is bad which is why it's important that people use charts to try to figure out if what we're doing is causing more of it or less of it and why

This was a long discussion, and he was very much on a Reagan Republican high-horse about "personal responsibility this" and "government dependence that" Anyway, I recall saying "okay, but what about kids? Shouldn't children have healthcare no matter how much of a fuckup their parents are?"

i wonder if the AIs ever get depressed that they're used to generate so many anti-AI memes

I’m so confused by this. Do these accounts think we could flip the seat? Because it honestly makes no sense

This was one of the charges against Alan Turing

people who name cats are scholars and gentlequeers whereas the people who name dogs appear to feel duty-bound to indoctrinate them into the straitjacket of human gender nonsense well I’ve had it! dogs don’t deserve such repression either

It’s true how on pet adoption sites now, the cats are all named stuff like Bongwater, Michelob Slops and First Sea Lord Stank-Glands of the Royal Admiralty, and the dogs are all named lame shit like Luna, Bella, and Cooper

never forget, centcom is forever

the most realistic scene in Jurassic Park is when two scientists make a questionable decision — traveling to an undisclosed location with a strange man — on the promise of three years of modest funding

Used to go to a Trader Joe’s (so, terrible parking lot) in an area with a lot of older people and nothing turns you into a public transit person the same way as watching elderly people who should not be driving dealing with that shit

I like all of these words

the really offensive thing to me here is that BLS statisticians collect almost all this data at great effort, little remuneration, and no public recognition, and if you email them as a random citizen they will explain it all, for free

Oh boy.

every statistic we measure on food insecurity in America betrays how far above the rest of the world we are our definition of "food insecure" includes "has ever been experienced stress about buying food" instead of the more typical definition around the globe of "cannot get food"

i have so many things in the queue but i really gotta finish this anti-nostalgia manifesto the whole reason to give a shit about politics is because of how good things are

starvation is such a non-problem in the US we don't even collect statistics on it orders of magnitude more people die of diabetes every year than even the most generous definitions of malnourishment

good move. hitters get to second base against him, but they never actually score.

so after a long and unnecessarily fraught journey made worse by arrogant and ignorant decision making the democratic voters of maine have finally arrived at troy

Back to this again

path to american reconstruction: 1. find presidential candidate named bob america 2. after victory, appoint mia hamm to the supreme court

✨ listen to your body ✨

A problem with your statement that America is a rapidly crumbling country where the masses are poor and starving is that I have eyes.

Only other thing I’ll say about the stupid chart comic is that like all of the other dire economic statements, if it were true we’d all know.

The Very Online Left continues not to beat the allegations that they're all mad gas and DoorDash aren't as cheap as they were during the pandemmy and people want to go outside again.

descending into increasingly recondite and unnecessarily convoluted multiverse plots in order to justify an emphasis on fan favorites *wipes away tear* they really do have the spirit of comics

It worked because people only really like superhero origin stories so having a bunch of superhero origin movies lead up to a superhero team origin movie was lightning in a bottle.

this is every bit as stupid as right-wingers who handwave graphs of atmospheric CO2 and then say "well if global warming is real how come it's cold in the winter"

When you’re so incredibly normal about your online beefs that you take them to print

This sucks!

Here's a story on Troy Jackson crushing the county delegate caucuses this weekend, and becoming the presumptive nominee to take on Susan Collins for the Maine Senate seat. Being able to organize that quickly signals good momentum for November, and he'll need that. prospect.org/2026/07/19/j...

"I'm not a lame multiculturalist civic patriot, I'm a *cool* multiculturalist civic patriot."

I remember a post going around that along the lines of "the difference between these two is that [lame liberal candidate] comes off as the coolest guy at the debate club, and Zohran comes off as the dorkiest guy at the hardcore show" and I cannot emphasize enough that irl that's the same guy

I need a meme where Satan is checking his tracking info for Mitch McConnell's soul and it says "label created."

theres something so effortless about how easy the shots move around, like no one gives a shit thats really nice. Little camera jiggles during conversations we would absolutely shoot dead still

Just started sugar show on apple tv, and genuinely its incredible to see something shot exactly like noir but with modern cameras

If Spain wins the World Cup the rest of the world has to accept that 14 hours a day is the correct amount of sleep to have for the next 4 years
