we are returning to the state in which the framers intended for the legislature, in which the lower chamber and the upper chamber absolutely despise one another

ICE employee among 16 men arrested in Bloomington sex trafficking sting, police say. "When he was arrested, he said, 'I'm ICE, boys,'" Hodges said during a press conference Tuesday. "Well, unfortunately for him, we locked him up."

Gf, waking up and immediately logging on to DM me the most cursed shit possible: He looks like Wendy Carlos’ boymode

There shouldn’t be any jobs that are better performed by one sex over the other. If women are being discriminated against because the job needs physical strength, that’s a sign that the men doing it aren’t being given sufficient tools and reasonable schedules, either

One way to stop sex trafficking rings on private islands is to make sure no one has enough money to buy a private island

My takeaway from every new Epstein revelation is that some powerful people victimized many powerless young women, many more knew, some actively enabled it--and we're still being told that MeToo and accountability for sexual violence have gone too far

I'll get back to "party unity" as soon as the Senate Minority Leader tells us if he voted for the Democratic party nominee for mayor of his city. I'm tired of party unity only ever running one way.

Father forgive them for they know not of Lore

If they give up on those ACA subsidies, they aren't ever going to get them back

I don't know what the Senate is going to do. But if they do in fact fold in exchange for nothing, they will be living up to past performance. To expect the Senate to carry out the will of the American people is to misunderstand why it was created in the first place.

Masked ax killers ask for muskox liquor

This sets a dangerous legal precedent that I intend to profit from, as the inventor of the knifewich

it's insanely funny for people to be talking like this about New York of all places, the city with a big metal lady in the harbor holding a sign that says "we love immigrants"

A 34-year-old as a politician: My god he's like a baby. It's like they just elected an infant to be their mayor. A 34-year-old as an athlete: You have to admire the bravery of him attempting that dunk, knowing full well the grim reaper is right behind him.

A play in two acts

Mamdani cracks 1M votes, the first NYC mayor to do so since John Lindsay in 1969

Americans have spoken and they demand wokeness

Younger millennial-ass victory video (complimentary)

Saw an article about someone "redefining what it means to be a pop-star." And just all the comments from people being like "who?" "never heard of her?" and it's just folks, we're in our 40s, just accept we won't know a lot of these people and that doesn't mean "music is dead." We're just old...

Big day at U.S. District Court in D.C. where Sean Dunn, the D.C. Sandwich Guy, is on trial for misdemeanor assault of a federal officer. Border Patrol agent Gregory Lairmore is on the stand narrating surveillance video of the sammie toss. 'Now he’s struck me with the sandwich,' Lairmore says.

Soft secession. Blue states building parallel systems, withholding cooperation, and creating facts on the ground that render federal authority meaningless within their borders. “Without state cooperation, much of the federal government’s agenda becomes unenforceable.”

This will be a long thread on yesterday police massacre in Rio. In nothern Rio de Janeiro city, there is a couple of hills called Complexo da Penha. It's Comando Vermelho("Red Command", a drug gang), or CV, territory. CV is the greatest gang in Rio, second in the whole Brazil. +

The funny thing about the invention of the wheel is the guy who invented it died penniless. It wasn't until much much later that pennies were invented

lmao

All words are cognate. Just as with the tree of life, language arose once, with one word, which eventually diverged into multiple branches of descendants.

Did Mama Bear prefer cold porridge or did she sit closer to the door and it just cooled faster

All these people who call orgasm the little death, yet don't call death the big orgasm

neat trick the "centrists" love to pull: just blankly asserting that all of their personal biases are popular and the things they don't like are unpopular and dragging the party down we see the transphobia, folks

My closing pitch to voters? “I will only live in this awful place if I rule over it”

“If you live in a 15 minute city but your barista can’t afford to live there too, you don’t live in a 15 minute city, you live in a theme park.“

Always told liberals Bill Maher was a racist piece of shit, especially against Muslims and Arabs, and we were ignored for years. www.yahoo.com/news/article...

I think if you're truly upset about the white house getting fucked up you kinda want a king a little bit deep down

mfs be like "you can't be purity testing we need a big tent" and the "purity test" is minorities objecting people who are trying to toss them out of the tent

Adoption being easy is a sign of a failure somewhere else in society

saw this clip of the NYC mayor debate and i had tears in my eyes, perhaps the most insane section of any debate ever

I like when cats sniff something when they’re purring and it comes out like this revving sound

I do not actually think "bipartisanship" is good when the "bipartisanship" is "Antonin Scalia writes that entire groups of people are disposable subhumans who don't deserve rights and then he and his bestie RBG hang out at the opera afterwards."

Novels are just comics consisting of one picture and an overwritten caption.

the most unsurprising thing in the world is now every rightwinger, all yhe way up to JD vance, have explicitely defended this and the statements made by those in this group. and that’s by design, every single rightwinger is now an extremist nazi

there is a government shutdown with no end in sight and it’s not even really the lead story rn because the president can’t stop invading American cities for no reason other than spite

The situation in America is not great. www.reuters.com/world/us/tru...

9/11 was kind of the "9/11" of country music
