I have questions

Trump hearing "cisgender" and thinking its "six genders" then getting all mad about it, thus forcing other Republicans to agree that the libs are now demanding there be six genders, is a perfect encapsulation of our Golden Age of Dickishness and Stupidity.

Boyyyy I *stayed* in the movies that summer

"A Real Hit On Jesus" was the original title of The Passion of the Christ Not many people know this

Of all the people they could've chosen They sent a dick pick

"The Stones – you know, that groundbreaking 1960s band whose entire image was built on a grit and authenticity to rival all other flashy bands around them – are using deepfakes to appear younger."

ok I think we’ve seen enough Washington Post podcast clips now, please stop sharing them

This would be my Achilles' heel

He had to upgrade to the VIP package because it was the only way to get goggles that were big enough

none of these people actually want to be doing the job. they want to be celebrities

Go home Google, you’re drunk

Trump:

Thread exposing California governor candidate Tom Steyer for paying influencers to promote him on social media - many of these influencers are not actually residents of California.

"Poor sales mean that only 173 will actually need to be recalled" is WILD

May 13, 1985. Osage Ave in #Philly. Bomb dropped on people by the state. #MOVEbombing

A good question to ask, if one is so inclined, would be “Why can't I tell whether she's genuinely racist or just ignorant?”

Let her cook

“Speaker of the TN House Cameron Sexton just removed me and every Democrat — and therefore every Black elected official in the state legislature from any committee we served on," Rep. Pearson said. Fascist reprisals for protesting.

Put me on your fuckin block list RIGHT NOW

As someone in a history PhD right now, absolutely shut the fuck up.

former transportation secy Buttigieg takes 4 weeks off to be with his newborns: conservatives lose their shit current transportation secy Duffy gets “some work” done during a *7-month* reality road trip: conservatives ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

A fair shot would’ve been being properly housed and fed the whole way through school. America and the poverty porn needs to stop.

BTW, the cost to repair the reflecting pool went from $1.8 million to $7 million and now it's $13.1 million. A reminder that not a single soul asked for this project.

We lost Douglas Adams 25 years ago today. This has made a lot of people very sad and has been widely regarded as a bad move.

Her rendition of "Precious Lord, take my hand" - the last extant footage of her - which closes this beautiful documentary is just sublime, and the way she introduces it to her Copenhagen audience will wrench your heart. It's not for nothing that these songs are called "spirituals". A giant.

Hey man, you need to stop taking my fucking videos, cropping off my handle, splicing it with other clips (which you presumably also stole), and then slapping your name on it. It’s one thing to download my TikTok and post it instead of just sharing here, but we’re hitting lawyer territory here.

Historian of abolition here, history tells us how we got here, to put it succinctly “John Brown was hanged for treason and Robert E. Lee was not.”

What made John Brown a great man was not actually that he was a "great" man. It was that he recognized himself as a regular man that rejected white supremacy. And was willing to die for that. That when he saw another Black face, he saw a human like himself. May 9, 1800 he was born

robots are only slaves if they're conscious. otherwise they're just machines. we hear "robot" and hear "human-shaped" but really most of your appliances are robots. which is precisely why this perverse push for conscious machines is so gross. it's a slavery fetish.

Writers, may the odds be ever in your favor

Might be time to retire the phrase “They’re saying the quiet part out loud” because there’s no longer a quiet part

I do think that every non-Black who questioned Black folks’ job qualifications. Claimed racism was no longer a problem. Was skeptical of AA. Said All Lives Matter. Victim blamed us. Believed they lost a job to DEI. You paved the way for generationally weakening your most reliable voting block.
