The obscenity of a budget that cuts the forest service to fund the re-opening of Alcatraz as a prison.

This is exactly why markets have been sleepy. They won’t move until the impact is real and they don’t believe it’s real because the impact hasn’t been immediate because we have learned nothing about the supply of physical things in this world. This is coming to a head in very short order.

New communique from the Weather Underground just dropped

The Roman Empire had the largest most expensive army in the world, but it had bad generals and insane moron emperors that fought stupid wars and it died. Anyone getting Déjà vu?

this is similar to my belief that all drugs should be legal, but only purchasable in plain white packaging from a government store staffed by middle-aged nurses hired for their ability to look disappointed in you.

Why do we live in such a childish, stupid country? A country that wastes its money on useless billion dollar aircraft carriers, when it could be spending those tax dollars to actually help its citizens like sane countries.

“Every record has been destroyed or falsified, every book has been rewritten…every date has been altered. And that process is continuing day by day and minute by minute. History has stopped. Nothing exists except an endless present in which the Party is always right.” - 1984, George Orwell

yeah when you tell the enemy "by the way we aren't abiding by the rules of war" you can't really expect them to follow any rules in return

The drunk frat-bro TV host is obviously more well-versed in the bible

This is fucked up and also happens OFTEN. If you are going to a protest please bring eye protection of some kind. Really sorry for this kid, I hope folks are able to help out with information.

Communion is not about “asking for forgiveness,” you Holy Week faker

How do so-called fundamentalist Christians fool themselves into thinking this guy isn’t a gleefully evil nihilist shitbag wearing the false colors of a believer

lol, lmao, lol and lmao

In case you're wondering what life on a Daily Wire production is apparently like... deadline.com/2026/04/jona...

I am a corny old man but I love West Side Story (the 1961 one) and spend 85% of the movie choked up.

gotta be tempting as hell for those Astronauts to get out the further anyone's ever been, scream "OH MY GOD AN ALIEN" and then cut off comms and ram their craft into the dark side of the moon you'd die, but in a way you'd also live forever

Precision strike from his Holiness, lmao Excommunicate Vance, please, I beg, it would be the right thing to do and also so, so funny

I like this figure a lot. Unmasked head is from an older Hugh figure so I guess this is a younger version of this Wolverine. But yeah, brown suit is best suit.

There has been more content spent on Hasan Piker in the past 2 weeks by people who have barely mentioned Republicans, such as Tuberville, Fine, & Ogles, openly espousing genocidal, anti-Muslim rhetoric. BTW, none of them have been censured. Remarkable stuff. Oh, 1 million Lebanese are displaced.

As an American, there are always disappointments to register and arguments to engage; amid the chaos of our battered, monied attempt at self-governance, dissent is constant. But this feeling of being utterly ashamed of America and embarrassed to the core by its president is new, raw and unnerving.

Three weeks into the conflict—in mid-March—White House Chief of Staff Susie Wiles forced a meeting of the president’s inner circle urging them to stop feeding him a rose-tinted interpretation of the conflict. trib.al/DONZ4sG

this waiter is definitely on blue sky lol

In 1993, "Star Trek: Deep Space Nine" made a Black man the star of a major sci-fi franchise and his character was like the Platonic ideal of a loving father, a great cook, a man who uplifted others, who was kind and tolerant but MILITANTLY so, and who also had flaws like any other human. Hail Sisko

Trump’s war in Iran is built on so many contradictions that MAGA’s disciplined propaganda machine of administration officials, Fox News, podcasters and influencers is starting to crack under the strain.

THE PROPERTY OF A LADY (Martin Campbell, 1992) A legendary Hong Kong thief (Anita Mui) steals a bio-weapon on behalf of a deranged ultranationalist (John Malkovich). James Bond (Timothy Dalton) must prevent nuclear blackmail and an international incident. Connie Nielsen co-stars.

The way things should work is people admit they got that wrong. But for some reason that I can’t discern the only thing we’ve ever made people admit they were wrong about is the war in Iraq

The theory that Biden had dementia was always a conspiracy theory because it required a coverup. That’s why people were so excited about the Tapper book. But then he didn’t find a conspiracy and it’s 2 years later and Biden is doing public events and chatting up people on Amtrak.

One more boost. This was a fantastic conversation about fake archaeology hosted by Doha Debates. With a range of phenomenal experts (including the lovely @indyfromspace.bsky.social) Don't miss it! youtu.be/vs6iFDo3YSY?...

For every American rube who ever argued that instead of statesmen, we should allow a businessman from outside the political sphere to helm our government, here is the internet posting that should make you shut the fuck up and bathe alone in your submoronic ignorance until you wrinkle and die.

It seems like the Trump admin is determined to re-learn the lessons of “we developed the formalized laws of war because we finally realized that if we do horrible things to the other guy, the other guy can do them too” from first principles. Of course, with the blood of *other* people.

Breaking News: Iran shot down a U.S. fighter jet over the country, U.S. officials and Iranian media said. The fate of the crew was unclear.

The new season of DAREDEVIL is all about a corrupt New York businessman winning electoral office and turning the police into his personal army of murderous goons to terrorize the streets while he illegally enriches himself and, I don't know, it just doesn't resonate today.

It's hard not to think of Paxton's definition of fascism when considering the extent to which the federal government under Trump has been reduced to a) a rogue murder state outside the nation's boundaries and b) a rogue, ethnic cleansing/mass deportation operation *inside* the nation's boundaries.

Happy "they very much did kill jesus" day

Maximum pressure wasn’t supposed to mean giving Iran $35 billion, or did we miss something?

Nature is crazy.

The sublime 2nd season of 'Andor' hits on an essential truth about illiberal regimes: There are no happy endings for the fascist toadies seeking career progression -- the system grinds them up mercilessly as well. *You* are not in the winners' circle bsky.app/profile/nosu...

it's never "meet the liberals pushing for nuremberg 2.0" is it?

1. "Here's an extreme idea. We're platforming it, so that people can watch out." 2. "This idea is gaining traction. We're publishing an op-ed in favour, for balance." 3. "This idea is popular now. Why does the left refuse to consider it?"

This isn’t a religion at this point, it’s a fucking sex cult, run by sado-mascochists

Fuck the NYT

The most dangerous Trump corruption of US institutions is the military, and fixing the cultural rot—seen most recently in blocking promotions for Black and female officers and firing white male generals who disagreed, though there’s a lot beyond that too—will be a major challenge of reconstruction.

this is deeply believed online but flatly untrue 40-55% of democrats self-id *primarily* as a liberal, 7-10% as a socialist

KATIE MILLER TO ACTING AG TODD BLANCHE: "Do you think investigators covered it up? Given how many victims there are. Surely, there should be more prosecutions and charges.” Apparently Stephen Miller’s wife didn’t get the memo. #TrumpEpsteinFilesCoverUp

oh. OH

Once again, "Andor" delivers the goods. Bondi, finding out she's being tossed aside.

The Left Behind books did not prepare me for a stupid Antichrist. I feel misled.
