We gotta do something about metaphors

Glad I saved this by @longwall26.bsky.social

Reconstruction 2 is going to require a level of seizing assets that I am very comfortable with but you may still need to work through

Insanely stupid and short-sighted choice. I didn't even know they were still trying to run this racket. You put more universities in danger with this shit you idiots!

Instead of watching Stranger Things, maybe we should start building stronger things, like the rule of law and a commitment to democratic norms

you should call your senators today and say you saw the nyt report about team fight in the senate and ask why the fuck you don’t see their name on the list. or if they are on the list, thank them

It is darkly funny, because Enron was a giant criminal enterprise of insane stupid SPV debt-sorcery. I doubt NVIDIA is doing that! I think it's more likely they shipped a bunch of GPUs without being paid/on fungible terms. I hope it's nothing weirder than that. Right? Surely not.

maybe i am going insane

These 20 House Democrats just joined Republicans in voting to fully repeal DC's police reform laws. Wiping off the books critical laws on use of force, transparency, and preventing violent cops from getting rehired. They think that they should have more say over DC police than the people of DC.

A siege-breaking snowstorm followed by the strongest aurora in living memory is proof that Chicago has the Mandate of Heaven and its enemies will die by her sword

kind of amazed at the ability of fifa to find an inexhaustible supply of belgian guys named like jean-marie van der corruption

Moving on from Kavanaugh Stops to Kavanaugh Shootings.

How I feel about political candidates

The treasury secretary told me traders keep selling off pesos so I asked how many pesos he has and he said he just goes to Milei and offers another 20 billion swap line afterwards so I said it sounds like he’s just feeding money to sellers and then those sellers started to laugh.

First good SCOTUS news I've heard in months

Thinking about how much of their violence has been normalized already, how scenes that caused shockwaves 6 weeks ago are now part of the rhythm of daily life. Watched a TikTok from a daughter who has to do her parents' laundry & get their groceries because they're in hiding. This is just it now

I’m sick of pointing this out but JB Pritzker, governor of Illinois, put these cops here and bragged about it and wants to be president @govpritzker.illinois.gov

I do not smoke and badly want a cigarette.

In some ways this is the government now

Eugenio Suárez, drop the hair care routine, buddy.

thank you brett kavanaugh!

These people are evil. Never stop saying so. Don’t be intimidated into shutting up.

I've been saying that this team has the mandate of heaven and can only maybe really lose to the Blue Jays who have the Canadian Mandate of Heaven

This is a lie. We are NOT well-funded.

My dad was killed by Sgt. Pepper’s Lonely Hearts Club Band you son of a bitch

i'll probably catch some flak for this, but utility bills have gotten so out of control that i've started turning off the burners on my stovetop before i leave the house. it saves a lot of money! i don't need them to be on when i'm not there! i don't know what else to tell you

dunno if 10 hours of livestreamed garment rending and teeth gnashing by the weirdest people on earth is gonna change the fact that they woke all their dragons day one. you're already literally invading america! oh is a second set of gloves coming off? have we seen the end of your famous restraint

the lesson "it's not the crime it's the cover up" has morphed a bit to: "if there's no cover up can we really say there was a crime?"

Naperville rise up

Ancient Mariner “stoked” about recent Albatross shooting www.reuters.com/business/wor...

the kimmel thing is bad but as long as they arent rounding people up indiscriminately based on race, building concentration camps and talking about eradicating those they deem sexual deviants, i think we’ll be ok

lol Treinen took another L

As someone who spent many hours listening to Kirk’s show on AM radio, I would say that he made Rush Limbaugh seem like Walter Cronkite by comparison, in terms of rhetorical tone and empirical rigor. The subtext of every show was “You don’t hate the left enough.”

No politicians or parties carrying out a genocide can condemn violence.

MAGA 3 days ago: Chicago is about to find out the meaning of WAR MAGA today: the left needs to stop condoning violence

I encourage everyone to look out for their safety and practice good internet hygiene, of course. But some of the scolding posts I've read suggest we can change the awful aftermath of a fateful event by just holding our tongues and being quiet little mice, and that isn't my experience.

i don't really understand why dem politicians rush to Condemn Political Violence on social media 1. comments are just people screaming you incited this somehow 2. your base is in no way going to be activated or energized by it 3. if the shoe was on the other foot your opponents would be gloating

We have a bit of a natural experiment here. Compare the tone, quantity and duration of Charlie Kirk coverage with that of the two Dem lawmakers gunned down in their homes in Minnesota 6 months ago. May be revealing.

I find it rather unsporting all these ball clubs don't just surrender to the clearly Superior Seattle Mariners.

I don't think it's too much to ask that they get swept by the Phillies and the Padres but humiliate Texas with a "salt the earth" type approach that makes it impossible to grow diamond shaped grass anywhere in the Dallas Metro area for seven generations.

Truly one of the stupidest and also best jokes in sitcom history

Prosciuttorial overreach, is this anything

Relax and get some rest! Tomorrow is another long day of unimaginable, absurdist horrors

anyone else notice the 20 ft wall of raw sewage heading this way
