The problem is that Republicans have falsely conditioned Americans to believe that public officials have always used their positions this way, rather than the reality of flying coach and staying at the cheapest hotels possible, so now people barely bat an eye at this corrupt jet setting

We need a strict testing and licensing program for grocery store self checkout

The fundamental thing about JD Vance’s fashion choices is that he’s a size XL who refuses to come to grips with that fact and keeps buying L sizes (I fully admit to also having done this!)

The President of the United States just called for Democratic members of Congress to be executed. "HANG THEM", he posted. If you're a person of influence in this country and you haven't picked a side, maybe now would be the time to pick a fucking side.

I just see a video of a weird guy punching himself and a completely innocent guy running to get some help

“NATO” doesn’t have submarines WTF read a book or just like, Wikipedia

The perfect album...that also happens to be from the year I turned 16 (1996): Side note: I still remember the keyboard shortcut for Æ I learned on TDN (IYKYK)

so MSNBC spent a shit ton of money to rebrand as MSNOW but couldn't even get MSNOW dot com as their website?

if I looked like a domestic violence restraining order with legs I probably wouldn't go around advocating for appearance-based criminal suspicion, but that's just me

Amazing how so much of Trump’s post-2020 success is based on just brazenly ignoring the concept of linear time

Just asking for the slightest hint of incredulity toward known ghouls from Democratic leadership

Propaganda I’m not falling for: - “Wake up feeling rested”

Decent chance VP actually strokes out before Trump because of Woke Pope

A while back my wife and I were watching like 2000s-era Housewives and they talked about being addicted to their “Crackberries.” Our thought, as mid-40s millennials, was how could you be addicted to a phone with just your personal email? Seeing the Epstein emails it makes a lot more sense I guess

Post-microwave: Soup temperature - 85 degrees Bowl temperature - surface of the sun degrees

Finally getting to Alien: Earth and the characters are so stupid and unlikeable/annoying that I’m only pushing through out of sheer boredom. And why is every alien species like perfectly evolved to kill humans in very specific ways?

Can’t tell if this is real but a ways back I went to buy a used car and the minimum loan term they would offer was 48 months. I asked for a 36 month option and they said no. The only people this would benefit are dealerships and lenders (which is why the WH would support it)

As a furloughed federal worker I say go to hell you spineless motherfucker

in 30 years of driving I have not made a single claim on my car insurance. END THE FRAUD!

I knew the post-election high would eventually fade but I didn’t think dems would just outright smother it like a wet blanket after less than a week

Pundits learn how to correctly pronounce Maggie Hassan’s last name, challenge level impossible

Sent an email because I guess that’s all I can do for now. Let him know I will never vote for him again. What’s the point of having a dem senator if they just allow republicans to fuck us all over?

Kaine won’t even let you leave a voicemail at his office because he’s a weak sniveling little fuck

Told Warner’s answering machine that if he votes to cave I’m taking my first back pay paycheck and giving a bunch of money to a primary challenger

Based on the shit I’ve seen documenting the re-emergent hardcore scene in West Virginia, a thriving all-ages music scene can go a long way toward healing our broken society

40 years ago we’d have congressional hearings falsely accusing metal bands of putting backwards messages in their songs that told kids to kill themselves & now we have a planet-killing chatbot that’s all like “bet you won’t commit suicide chickenshit bitch” & the government is like here’s $5 billion

I worked at a Safeway when I was 16 and this was basically the expectation there and JFC it was miserable. Pretty much the only customers that cared were snooty old people

New Bioshock game looks fantas…oh.

The guy who thinks you need ID to buy groceries has thoughts about food assistance programs

A sense of relief that a Democrat is in charge of my state’s National Guard is not a feeling I thought I’d ever be overwhelmed with but here we are

The way my dog angrily tries to bite at the hotspot he has given himself on the tail makes me think he believes his tail is some sort of sentient being terrorizing him rather than a part of his own body

New awareness campaign

I grew up Evangelical and the Lords Prayer just wasn’t a thing. In fact, there was almost an aversion to saying it because the Catholics were so into it and Evangelicals don’t particularly care for Catholics. Using it here is a political choice not a religious one

Basically every driver out on the roads tonight

What is happening at DCA?

A lot of the young men on SNAP are in the military!

why yes I'd love to take a task, like increasing saturation, that involves two clicks and a slider, and turn it into one that involves me typing out a command and then probably having to adjust whatever the "AI" thinks I want the setting at www.engadget.com/apps/adobes-...

You can't even argue that this is an attempt at a political triangulation when you've got guys like Andy Beshear explicitly rejecting anti-trans bigotry and winning and remaining very popular even in very red states. Newsom is just a piece of shit who history will hopefully soon forget

I will burn American democracy to the ground to avoid paying higher taxes but here’s a billion dollars for the military because I’m a very generous person

Okay but the woman commenting to the “camera” that is outside her moving car is legit hilarious

When you didn’t make tacos for everyone

My perhaps spicy take is that maybe white dudes just don’t run for anything for a few cycles

His responses have moved me from “yikes, but maybe he can come back from this in a future election” to “anyone still defending this guy by tomorrow has no place in progressive politics” (squints at Bernie)

My coworker lives in Reston and had to wait like 4 months for community review to remove a tree that was damaging her house

Last night, my Eufy cam caught someone stealing my Radwagon from in front of my house, but 5 minutes later they brought it back and took the time to put the cover back on. I don't have anywhere to lock it, so I keep it covered and rely on it's mass to be a theft deterrent, which maybe kinda worked?

Mike Johnson is the final boss of a particular kind of evangelical Christian dad. Sits the family in the front row at church, heads a men's prayer and accountability group, gives long speech-prayers to impress everyone, hates all young people including his own children, and thinks levity is satanic

Nothing highlights America’s changing view of crime like watching 80s movies. Like in the Lost Boys the family moves to the “murder capital of the world” and Diane West’s mom character just casually strolls the boardwalk at night while people paste photos to a gigantic “missing persons” wall
