"we can measure sex" no you fucking can't and it was combining philosophy with empirical data that made sexologists stop briefly "We can measure race" still no you fucking can't. "We can measure intelligence" again tiring to have to keep pointing this out but no you fucking can't. And so on

Tom Kean is the perfect Republican and we should all encourage the rest of the GOP reps to be just like him (fuck off and never be heard from again)

There was a lot of talk last year about ending the culture wars and reaching a reasonable accommodation, and what I think those people consistently refuse to understand is that *what the Right wants* is to be at war with the rest of the country. We're seeing what that looks like in the UK now.

bro is in the void.

not a car guy but I believe the tires are supposed to stay ON the car

He is referring to the Prime Minister of the United Kingdom, Sir Keir Starmer, who is a pig, a slob, and a wretched dog

Jesse Singal literally imagined an entirely fictional me, and then got furious at his own imagination.

Exactly. Over and over again the Very Smart Politics Knowers will say "Democrats need to stop [thing Democrats don't do] and instead do [thing Democrats always do]!" At some point people have to consider whether the media environment they're in is giving them an accurate picture of reality.

a little on the nose for capitalism that the world’s first trillionaire is a nazi conman

Man. That’s fucking crazy. If only we had cadres of trained professionals whose entire job was to work of things like this

Engineering and inboard cameras for the STS-4 launch: youtu.be/o-LH8M6IgSI In slow motion we can clearly see the boundary of flow separation moving down and out of the RS-25 nozzles.

A new study of 445 adolescents treated at pediatric gender clinics in Canada found that after a mean 2.4 years, 94.6% still identified as trns. Of the 353 who started hormonal treatments, 1.1% discontinued them. www.jahonline.org/article/S105...

WE DON’T NEED A FUCKING TREATMENT WE HAVE A VACCINE THAT IS 97% EFFECTIVE AND COULD ERADICATE THE DISEASE IF WE DIDN’T HAVE ANTIVAX GRIFTERS LEADING US 🤦🏻‍♂️🤦🏻‍♂️🤦🏻‍♂️ www.nytimes.com/2026/06/11/w...

100% And once enough of them are expelled, the supermajority can and should pass legislation to ban the party. Of course there must be a conservative party in America (preferably in a parliamentary system), but the GOP needs to be destroyed for the same reason the Confederacy needed to be destroyed.

Qatari Amiri Diwan: President Trump confirmed the continuation of efforts to complete the final procedures in preparation for announcing the arrangements regarding the signing of the agreement

swear to god I thought they made Ted Cruz a cat girl

Whenever we talk about this administration or Republicans in general wanting something positive regarding people, it can no longer be unspoken that they mean WHITE people. The White House wants more WHITE doctors, so its deadly immigration policy is not contradictory to that desire in any way.

These are the exact lines AES wants this primary to unfold along

Minnesotans deserve the truth about the Laken Riley Act.

I still can’t believe he’s so obsessed with her that he has a literal keyboard shortcut for “Harvard Law School clinical instructor and trans activist”. World historic weirdo material.

i can't sleep because of hecox/bpj i'm fucking miserable

👇🎯 The last 3 Dem presidencies, but on steroids. Instead of just fixing the economy each time, Dems now have to rebuild the entire polity. And this is why <major institutional reform> is crucial. Dems are going to lose future elections. We must have multiparty democracy reform before that happens.

I’ve thought about it and I’m okay with corporate sponsorship of clever wordplay so long as their angle is so obscure that even after it’s explained to me I still can’t understand what they were trying to do

having to deal with the bpj/hecox ruling on 10am on a thursday is going to suck. scotus should consider issuing their ruling at a more convenient time, such as never
