this is seemingly becoming less true of the democratic party, bit by bit, but it remains every bit as true of the supreme court

Wow. Several years ago, it would be hard to imagine a story like this. Now, it's not routine, but not anyhing out of the ordinary. A ground robot evacuated a 77 year old Ukrainian lady from Lyman. Her home of 53 years was destroyed by Russians.

Hasn’t whined about needing a ballroom to feel safe

Every school needs a ballroom.

Have a happy Bagel! #DailyDoggo

ma’am i would like to get dressed

these focus groups are just further anecdotal evidence for my view that trump is is understood as a totem for wealth and prosperity. these people are genuinely bewildered that he isn’t, and might in fact be a human being with ulterior motives

Meet Goose. He's here to remind you that April is Heartworm Awareness Month and share that he's one of 42 heartworm-positive dogs we've sponsored so far this year! Thank you for helping us make lifesaving care accessible and ensuring the disease wasn't the end of their story ❤️‍🩹

It is gonna be really funny if Donald Trump, one of the most anti-green energy presidents ever, ends up being responsible for the largest green energy transition in history

this is real

No ballroom. No arch. No Kings. open.substack.com/pub/quillett...

This morning at Hancock High, seniors headed to the floor of the gym to receive their caps and gowns, each from a teacher they had chosen. Stacy Campbell waited there, holding her student Israel Makoka's cap and gown. But he wouldn't come. He and his brother, Max, 15, had been taken by ICE.

there is something genuinely clarifying and useful about this kind of stuff. they are totally hoods off and proud of it, which means we should not hesitate to describe them accordingly

"we need a gilded luxury security bubble so DC elites can party in safety" hmmm yes there's that winning populist vibe

GOOD NEWS! Researchers have developed an HIV vaccine candidate that achieves something never before observed in the field: inducing detectable neutralizing antibodies (nAbs) against HIV within just THREE weeks after a SINGLE immunization which was further INCREASED after an additional booster.

remember when trump lost the election and refused to accept the results and people were saying “come on just go along with it for a little while” this is what the ballroom is like right now lol

this man could not see shit

It's a shame that "defend your culture" always means "hate strangers different from you" and never "enact anti-pollution laws so that you can go fishing with your grandkids the way your grandpa taught you."

my eyes just rolled so hard they popped out and skittered across the floor and are now staring at me from the other side of the room

"Do you regret your heated rhetoric?" "No. Do you regret your chilled rhetoric? Do you regret sitting on the sidelines as norms fell away and so many laws were broken? Do you regret pretending like this was all normal and you alone were savvy enough to see that Both Sides Are To Blame?"

The myopia of the professional journalist class is kind of disgusting display right now, where multiple mass shootings that had actual casualties received basically 0 attention and the fact that a person was stopped exactly where they were supposed to but journalists' night was ruined is front page

You see this everywhere. Every rock star today is the child of a hedge fund manager. Every actor’s parents have been in Hollywood since Reagan.

The WHCA continuing their glorified meet and greet after an active shooter and a death is really just so spot on for the horrendous sociopathic tendencies of DC political reporters that I can't quite believe it's real.

One of the worst things to happen to America was journalism ceasing to be a middle income career like teaching or accounting and transforming into a bullshit job for precocious rich kids because parental subsidies are required for your first decade in the business.

This is Geoff. He's lucky to be in a household that values sleepiness over cleanliness. 13/10 #SeniorPupSaturday (TT: sarahmeyers14)

i know what those 5 words mean individually but not put together like this

Jackie Robinson grew up in a diverse Pasadena neighborhood, & when one of those neighbors, his baseball teammate Shig Takayama, was incarcerated at Manzanar with his family, the Robinsons helped take care of their home. For my new column, a story of the worst & best of America through baseball. 🗃️

I am absolutely shite at recognising when someone is flirting with me. Like, comically bad at it. My mates would mock me about it. But something happened today that made me so happy. 1/?

RFK Jr: "A Democratic senator claimed it's mathematically impossible to have a drug drop by 600%. I said, 'Well, if the drug was $100 and it raises to $600, that would be a 600% rise. If it drops from $600 to $100, that's a 600% savings.'" Trump: "Right"

The main thing in art and entertainment to keep your finger on the pulse of the fans and what they want, their feedback is so important.

Yes, Swiss scientist Fritz Zwicky coined the term “dark matter” which is impressive, but he also coined the term “spherical bastard” to describe people who are bastards no matter which way you look at them, and I think that should be celebrated more.

Nothing he can say to them will be as degrading and disgraceful as their own decision to be there in the first place.

This is an incredible tweet.

Trump welcoming a women's sports national champion to the White House vs. how you're supposed to welcome a women's sports national champion to the White House

“Expanding the Supreme Court is no different that redistricting in California and Virginia. It is a proportionate response to Republican attempts to degrade liberal democracy and move America toward a post-liberal order.” open.substack.com/pub/thebulwa...

This is Ricky. He was a runner-up in a pet photographer's "My Fabulous Weirdo" competition. Unfortunately when you are this fabulous, it can be very hard for the weird to shine through. 14/10 #SeniorPupSaturday (IG: portraitsofdogs)

This pup found a stick shaped like an old timey pipe earlier today and has already solved three mysteries. 13/10

Study of the Heads of Two Old Men, by Philippe de Champaigne, 17th c, 📸 by @adampantozzi

I’m sure all the men who dominate the C-suite and actually make the decisions about layoffs are delighted that even supposedly anti-corporate leftists will happily blame women…oops, sorry, “HR”…for their decisions.

As the conservatives freak out over VA, a reminder: BEFORE the 2022 midterms, federal courts found that multiple once-covered-by-the-VRA states likely illegally diluted Black votes. But because of Purcell, these illegal maps were used that fall. So miss me with the pearl clutching.

Welp, here you go @darthbluesky.bsky.social

Hmm, I wonder why…

I would submit that a gerrymander by politicians saying fuck the voters and one by voters saying fuck the politicians are two wholly different animals

Every time this tailor posts a photo of their workspace, it looks like their dog is a tailor and he's showing off the garments he made. IG z.o.e.y.a.t.e.s

This is axios, don’t read the fucking story, but I wanted to note how enraging it is for them to say “a job in the administration” and include “Supreme Court justice” on the list.

Alright, I’m home now so here’s the Norm update. Yesterday at 4pm, I got a text from a family I’ve been helping who had a loved one abducted a couple of days after Renée Good’s murder. This was the family that Norm Nation kept from being evicted (and you delivered). ICE had released their loved one.

This is Baxter. He’s thinking about his crush. No he won’t tell you who it is. 12/10 (TT: jayshaun077)
