I can probably ratio you without even trying.

If a Democrat loses a purple district by 3 points we get told about how Dems live in a bubble, but I don’t know how anyone can look at these numbers and say that the GOP isn’t in a bubble

there is one and only one political strategy, and that is: “hang trump like an anchor around the neck of every single elected republican and the party itself.” no ‘friends across the aisle.’ no ‘the fever will break.’ anyone not on board with that has to go. no exceptions

One of the more important stock-taking moments to watch a bootlegged news program censored in your country.

i mean, whomst amongst us *hasn't* killed a story in the most ham-fisted and clumsiest way imaginable with an obviously bullshit excuse only to have a million copies of it pop up all over the internet like mushrooms less than 24 hours later

I'm not going to bother to attribute this. It reveals an almost total ignorance of the technology of everything mentioned. I block almost every possible term related to this topic because people who have a *lot* to say about it tend to be competent to do so in inverse proportion.

Stop printing lies in the newspaper. Fusion is not a viable power source yet. There is no fusion machine making power, never mind commercially. www.nytimes.com/2025/12/13/c...

Had my first ambulance ride yesterday. I'll just say that I was very impressed with everyone. Everybody was very kind and good at what they do.

The endless number of fully redacted pages will definitely cool the interest and frenzy around the Epstein files

Damn it sure would be embarrassing for the writer of this if there were any medical conditions where people could walk but not for long distances

I wish Netflix allowed "Wake Up Dead Man" to get a wide release just so we could all have the "I can walk, it just hurts" clip ready and available for dumb ableist shit like this.

BREAKING: Boston officials say the suspect in the Brown University shooting also "murdered MIT professor Nuno Loureiro."

If there’s one thing I know, it’s that you should go ‘all in’ on the Sunk Cost Fallacy. Quitting is for losers.

i am so very sorry for this for multiple reasons, but the power of grinch compelled me

God, grant me the serenity to accept the things I cannot change, courage to change the things I can, and a duck that does crimes

Oh. I just did that very long sighing thing again.

That was probably Saint Anselm's sister, Beatrice Saint Anselm, who wrote the lesser-known meditation, “You Suck”, more commonly known as the “Ontological Proof That You Suck, No Really, I'm Serious, You Suck" at a nunnery near the Alps during the long Winter of 1075.

That's my schadenfreude quota for the week. You might think "a week?", but it is the case that I watched this 503 times.

This year has felt like being awake during surgery but also it’s unsuccessful surgery and also also now you have an infection and none of that is covered by your insurance anymore

SHOUT-OUT to multi-talented International Treasure: DICK VAN DYKE! Today we celebrate his 100th year+3 days birthday. From the day I first met him (story included below) he's been an inspiration & a source of joy to his countless fans around the globe, myself included. Thank you sir 🙏 For DVD: 🎂❤️

Still extremely funny that the University of Minnesota has buildings called both Anderson and Andersen and they were nordicpilled enough to think that people should intuitively understand the difference.

I have discovered a truly marvelous proof, the likes of which my numerous haters in the lying media never mention. You never hear that one anymore. But a brilliant mathematician comes up to me (he's Chinese, but a big Trump guy) and says with tears in his eyes, "sir, sir, such a beautiful proof."

this has always been the most baffling and depressing thing about the political hellscape we have lived through in the last decade there is nothing there at all except a rapacious, all-consuming need for praise, no humanity at all, nothing but a carnival barker's ability to work the crowd

Headline: ‘...is 6,000% lower than in U.S.’ 'Topline': ‘...a gun homicide rate that’s 62 times lower than that of the United States.’ Text: 5.6/100,000 'gun murders' US 0.09/100,000 'gun murders' AU 5.6 ÷ 0.09 = 62.22 🧵1/2

> Australia’s gun rate is 6000% lower than the US No. That’s Trump math ala “lower drugmpricrs by 500%, 600%”, etc.

Students texted that suspect in custody, lock-down to remain in place.

Shooting on Brown campus. Reports of multiple people shot and just now there are reports that they arrested a suspect. Be safe. I have close family there. #Brown

Emergency scanner says 2 dead inside a Brown University building, and shooter has now been taken into custody, scene now secure.

Hadn't looked at news in a few days, on purpose. Reading the Guardian's US live feed just now, I feared I was going to stroke out after the fourth Trump quote. In related news, I watched 'Weapons' yesterday and the ending was great. Cathartic, even.

I can’t help but notice that a bunch of people think “actual thinking” means “insipid contrarianism that substitutes banal edgelordery for any meaning or principle.”

A conservative, somewhere, probably

For eff's sake, buddy: Vera is right there at the top of the stairs and she probably has snacks. GO TO THE LIGHT!

“Nuzzi writes about keeping an untouched vial of cocaine in her apartment in New York, just to prove to herself that she wouldn’t grow up to become like her mother.” seems legit ‘Don't touch that! It's mine...I mean, it's my reminder to not do drugs like my addict mother.

Speaking of House GOP conference, when a group is in danger they pull together. But at a certain point the Titanic isn't "in danger"; it's sinking. And at that moment, one person looks at another and says, "I never liked you, BITCH!" and throws a punch. This seems like where we are in the House.
