Can I just say the quiet bit out loud. Most of the people left posting on X are men. Football Twitter is, largely men. What message is the government sending that it cares more about reaching young men than protecting young women

What happened to that woman is a tragic injustice. It’s a tragic injustice that didn’t need to happen and the people in charge truly don’t give a fuck. But they didn’t have to be in charge. That’s what we tried to tell you but you knew better and you’re mad at us for pointing that out.

crazy that vivek left the hitler website before a bunch of dems did

This should honestly be a legal requirement for discontinued products.

This year’s Presidential Christmas card.

Replacing the situation room with a room in Mar-a-Lago, cheaply set dressed with black blankets and with big screens displaying X would be bad at any time. But when launching a *huge* military operation without even notifying Congress, it’s…once again, off the charts.

Interesting if not surprising. He wants it because it looks big. www.linkedin.com/posts/charle...

Black people five years ago: you know, they can kill anyone they want to out there Everybody today: hot damn, did you know they can kill anyone they want to out there?

I'm sorry to keep posting about this but this should be a government-destroying scandal at this point. How the fuck are you not coming down like a ton of bricks on this? There could hardly be a less ambiguous situation, and yet...!!!

Just completed a sexual harassment survey for my employer. They use X for communications so I pointed out the survey wasn't worth the effort given their dedication to the world's leading website for sexual harassment and child porn.

Just think Greenland and Canada, once you're part of the United States, ICE can shoot your people in the head, too!

my 75yo mother told me last night that she’s planning to delete Instagram and Facebook because she’s sick of not being able to tell what’s AI and what’s not, and I genuinely don’t think tech companies have reckoned with this kind of move as an actual possibility

He will also, undoubtedly, make a passionate, powerful argument in support of the yes vote.

But Europe is different. The EU’s per capita crash death rate is less than half the US rate. With great transit, many pedestrianized zones, and slow streets, European cities are particularly safe. There’s a low ceiling on any safety upside that robotaxis offer. www.itf-oecd.org/sites/defaul...

This sucks but I think non-Americans being justifiably angry at Americans for what the American government is doing and threatening to do, and Americans experiencing that anger and frustration personally in ways that are unpleasant, is probably an important part of any path back to stability

amazing how the entire machine can pivot within 24 hours. no need to slowly upsell the argument; just issue new marching orders

the reason people sometimes act madder at democrats than republicans when republicans do impossibly evil shit is the same reason why, if you hired an exterminator to handle a roach infestation and he showed up to feed and play with them instead, your first instinct wouldn’t be to yell at the roaches

The FIFA Peace Prize Winner has now bombed: •Iran •Iraq •Nigeria •Somalia •Syria •Venezuela •Yemen •Armed Netanyahu to bomb Palestine, Iran, Syria, Lebanon. This is the “pro peace” President. Alas, I remember when the FIFA Peace prize meant something.

Someone should write a sitcom about the one waiter at Mar-a-Lago who isn't a foreign spy, he must be confused

“You can tell we’re serious about challenging this unconstitutional violation of international law by the fact that we’re threading it in between these nonconsensual sexualized images of naked children.” You’ve got to be kidding me. Hold your press conference on Epstein’s jet, I guess!

They’re all posting their statements on the child porn platform? That’s a wild choice.

This sounds like an even worse version of LinkedIn. (Gift link, three free clicks.) giftarticle.ft.com/giftarticle/...

Wow.

Zelensky on Venezuela: “About Venezuela? How should I respond to that? Well, what can I say? If… If it is possible to act with dictators like this, it means the United States knows what to do next. Thank you” Omg I love it.

Not the first time that Sanchez/Spain emerge as the only entity in Europe with anything resembling a spine.

Why supporting illegal US actions in Venezuela is a bad idea, even if Maduro is our enemy. Imperialism should not be normalized

It’s hypocritical to oppose Russia forcing its will on its neighbors for imperialistic reasons if you support the US doing the same to Venezuela

Here comes the best description I have heard so far of the biggest problem with the US electing Trump *again* (Sam Harris on YouTube) youtube.com/shorts/QqW3J...

AI is putting The Onion out of business

America really went from Barack Obama, who taught constitutional law at the University of Chicago, to a guy who brags about passing a test with questions like “what day is today?” and “what’s the relationship between an apple and an orange?” I guess we should be glad he’s passed it 3 times. 🤷🏾‍♂️

The world's most beautiful milk shop, was established in 1880 by the Pfund brothers in Dresden, Germany.

Yeah, it's everyone else going "But my company has rules for this and if I mess them up I get in trouble", plus a sense that those rules are usually indirectly the result of government laws.

I am a stuck record on this, but Freebiegate would not have happened if they had a modern gifting policy.

Americans (half of them unjustly) are never going to live this down.

Germany goes radical: serving suggestion.

Armchair communists are ridiculous but let's face it, it's also kind of difficult to be a huge fan of the current stage of capitalism when a new CEO can parachute in, announce this as "strategy" and then earn 100x more than his employees. I mean you can't even identify the industry from this crap:

Worst idea of the year has already dropped

“Together, the Albanians and the Chinese are a fifth of the world’s population”

The increasing anti-Johnson sentiment in the UK is certainly fair, but somewhat surprising.

Basement-dweller copy, IP-theft from a foreign artist, casual racism, the cruelty is the point etc. USA government, 2025/26.

Similarly, I want nature docs that consist of someone knowledgeable ambling round a patch of landscape, periodically saying 'Ooh, look at this'.
