Ah, getting rid of the worst of the worst (gainfully employed essential workers) to improve our lives (raise prices). Promises made, promises kept. Thank you sir

She just needed inspiration

the guy on the radio just said "lets take a short break from all the politics" and then put on Dire Straits

mom can you pick me up at the strait of hormuz, my friends are laughing at me and wont help

why aren't other countries helping us with the strait of hormuz after we started an unjust war, cut off trade, and insulted them for a year?

Things are not okay.

The way we were: cue the montage saluting the Mets who have left us — in the baseball sense — in the past year. www.faithandfearinflushing.com/2026/03/16/o...

It is *fascinating* to me how quickly some people have gone completely from “we all must work in the office! human collaboration is vital and only happens in person!” to “I can replace all these pesky people with chatbots!” Definitely some commentary there about our society and who gets to choose.

there's nothing like working with the soft, dulcid tones of Alphaville playing in the office next door

One good reason to never have billionaire celebrities run a country is that they likely will have difficulty understanding basic social dynamics

“…my faith in the paper’s current leadership is broken beyond repair.”

Just lying for fun.

Recap: Hour 1: We hit them like they’ve never been hit before. Day 1: We already won this war. It was easy. Yay us. Day 5: We don’t need any help. Don’t bother showing up after the war is over. Losers. Day 13: Why isn’t the world helping us? There will be be consequences.

It’s good to be a taco truck kitty.

Thanks to Paul Ehrlich for ensuring fascism survived and thrived into the 21st century. A life well spent.

Oh my God. What an absolute fiasco

On top of <gestures with hands> everything else, it really is something that the top levels of US & Israeli government and military have a worse understanding of Iran than random idiots online like me, who generally knew the IRGC is well-entrenched and that a foreign bombing would make them moreso.

I'm adding "doing a Zoom call in a cafe" to my list of crimes that will be punishable by death in my firm but fair regime

This is just going to continue escalating and getting worse. Trump's reaction to being cornered by events he cannot dismiss or control or make someone else's problem is to lash out with increasing violence. Remember, his reax to COVID was first to attempt to kill protesters, then the US Congress.

Time for a few. A few small beers.

When you've lost KAT...

Surprise, the WBC was just a psyop to get everyone on board with the ABS system

Also… that beautiful Rob Reiner tribute into an In Memorium soundtracked by The Princess Bride music should be illegal 😭😭😭

Send your sons to die in Trump’s war and maybe, if you’re lucky, he’ll use the death of your loved one to fundraise off of

The really sad (or maybe infuriating?) part is that I think they just internalized the genocide joe messaging and have retroactively decided everything he did as president was bad to fit the narrative, even stuff they should applaud if they claim to possess anything resembling coherent politics.

I cannot adequately explain how fucked up the World Cup situation is wihen the president of a host nation *threatens the safety* of one of the participants (Iran). The USA should be removed as a host nation and if it's not, the games shoud be boycotted and ANYONE WITH A MORAL CENTER should see that.

The best summing up of Trump i've ever seen.

The thing about Zohran doing this is that he may not get immediate credit from Jewish organizations, but telling these psychos to fuck off and thus polarizing his own broad left-wing coalition against them is in and of itself beneficial.

2025: meet Big Azz, the lovable catcher who all of America loves for his home run hitting prowess and his gigantic ass. 2026: we regret to inform you that Big Azz’s nickname has nothing to do with the disproportionately large size of his buttocks.

Before the start of Trump's war, the president knew he was risking the shutdown of the world's most vital shipping lane—which would throw the world into chaos. But the 79 yo real estate developer assured White House advisers that Iran would surrender first. www.wsj.com/politics/nat... (gift link)

He is treating this war like he’s a 14 year old in his basement playing a fucking video game.

They blew up USAid and doomed millions to an agonizing death but a video of them being an idiot on camera is causing reputational damage

"I ASSUMED the US Military had an active plan to open the Strait." How can people who are paid to understand geopolitics be so bafflingly naive?

@chriscjackson.bsky.social how is your mom doing?

I will vote for literally anyone whose platform is “I’m gonna send the people responsible for this to prison”

Ossoff: "The WH put out a video depicting this war as a video game. When service members are returning in flag-draped coffins, & even more have lost limbs or suffered brain injuries or are fighting for their lives, this WH treats war like a game. It's a disgrace. And it speaks to a moral rot."

Oh, honey . . . just because you played dress-up at a fake "military academy" that your parents sent you to because you were such an unmanageable, obnoxious teenager doesn't mean you were in the miliary. You had that duty, but lied to get out of it.

I'm curious, where is this money even going? They've fired all the independent auditors. Do we know this is going to the treasury? Where does it go from there if it does? Why do we even allow someone to just give the treasury money?

and they heard her exclaim as she stumbled out of sight, “i have a full punchcard for a free drink at TGI Fridays, and to all a good night”

For at least 10 years journos have been working so hard to dissemble and obfuscate under the Honorable Notions of What Journalism Is and now even the people whose water they’ve been carrying are like wtf I’m trying to be racist

Weeeee *cries*

Sopranos has mob hits. Game of Thrones has dragon attacks. Buffy has vampire battles. Breaking Bad has meth wars. Mad Men has moral corruption. Gilmore Girls has Emily’s hurt feelings when Lorelei didn’t send her an invitation to Sookie’s wedding. All have the same high level of brilliant writing.

It was a mistake to leave me unsupervised.

Guys please make sure you don't go to any theaters on March 27th, stay safe!
