I would hope that outsiders could look beyond our current government when evaluating Americans, but I would also hope that they would not supply our current government with heavy weaponry. 🥰

the longer quote hits even harder

it's pretty incredible that so many people thought 3+ years of IDF zoomers live streaming their child execution videos to Diplo remixes on TikTok (while their parents protest prison rape prosecutions) wouldn't backfire spectacularly

"Saving America through pedophilia" is a pretty accurate distillation of the GOP worldview

Why has no general resigned over illegal boat strikes, the operation in Venezuela, the Iran War, or an impeding operation against Cuba (apparently)? I think HR McMaster and Dereliction of Duty, a book that supposedly demands it, actually lets them off the hook, offers one explanation. My latest⬇️

I think a lot of podcasters in this vein should be interpreted as “reactionary” in the most literal sense that they are extremely vacuous and form their politics by following trends of resentment against whatever they see on social media

I wouldn't have made it long enough to get in an argument about whether tanks were just a fad, or if allying with the Nazis in 1939 was a good move.

Platner endorser

one of the biggest technological revolutions in history and it has nothing to do with crypto, AI, metaverse or any of the things the media relentlessly hypes

one reason i'm so primed to dislike the More Perfect Union brand of political agitation is that i remember just five or six years ago when the gig economy was supposed to be a bad thing but now we need to protect Uber and Lyft from the evil forces of Waymo

Dear god. Very, very serious allegations of mass civil rights violations at the State of Florida's Everglades immigration detention center (officially known as "Alligator Alcatraz").

Progressives are in a state of collective delusion about this. Right now unemployment is 4.3%. Inflation is 3%. Real wages have been increasing. And consumers literally think it's the worst economy IN MODERN HISTORY. Yes it's funny it's happening to Trump. But it will (and did) happen to us, too!

The dry and rote invocation of a just war to describe what we just did in Iran is a knowing and frankly wicked lie, to say that the way of the Price of Peace is with the sword. The fuck gospels do these people read

i know everybody likes the documentaries, and they're great, but jon bois has always been and always will be a master of the written word

If there was a really a fair and balanced corporate media - the reporters would be following up all Catholic Churches in America who denied Biden communion or shunned him any way for his support for abortion rights - after how Vance has attacked the Pope.

If we ever heard this kind of rubbish from a Democratic VP - already a campaign for excommunication based on schism would be up and running.

Pepperidge farms remembers

lot of "people called Caesar a dictator but the Senate was able to easily remove him" ahh takes coming out today

I thought this had already been proven?

Dismissively putting the phrase "Nazi tattoo" in quotes when writing about Graham Platner does not change the simple fact that he had a tattoo of a Nazi symbol. It only makes you look like an idiot.

Opposition to war, like war itself, is serious business for serious people. Right now it's like the left's equivalent of the right's cult of the operator, a bunch of fantasist cranks. A serious US anti-war movement will have FSOs at its core.

Then block me, it's not an airport. Jesus.

Can. 1368— A person is to be punished with a just penalty who, at a public event or assembly, or in a published writing, or by otherwise using the means of social communication, utters blasphemy, or gravely harms public morals, or rails at or excites hatred of or contempt for religion or the Church.

501. In a way, this will always be the "real" end of the Expanded Universe to me, bringing us full circle from the Thrawn Trilogy, and giving us the ultimate defeat of the Grand Admiral at the hands of his own protege who is able to dream beyond the limitations and boundaries he never saw past.

You usually don’t see Stegeman that empty unless the basketball team is playing.

I can’t tell without a drunk dude barking in my face.

"my accountant told me to invest in crypto. turns out he meant i should buy a concrete box and seal myself in it."

Chicken breasts, given how most people prepare them

Jesus. Swalwell needs to be in prison.

My god. Essential, horrifying reporting here.

revising history as it happens is the primary role of the news media

Wile E Coyote has a fiduciary responsibility to his shareholders to not look down and keep running

Its like the 40K ork vehicles actually going faster when painted red.

truly president trump was right: it can only good happen

He's lying

Accountability itself continues to take a beating at the hands of our current roster of federal appellate judges.

In a way, this means JD Vance helped kill CPAC

It has only become truer over the decade since

dems are not perfect but they got this guy out in the span of a weekend, while the republicans made Hegseth the secretary of defense

You ever read something so profoundly wrong you question your grip on reality?

I realize this is confusing, but the U.S.-Israeli war with Iran isn’t a domestic political story.

This is either the biggest dork shit ever or beautiful or both. Amazing: the viral pacers bickering couple were actually yakking about uh the Ben Sasse podcast and hashing out ways to rejigger liberal arts education www.si.com/nba/pacers/v...
