Gen X really turned out to be a resounding disappointment.

The Sporting Director of the US Men's National Team just resigned two weeks before a World Cup we're hosting with a manager he brought in to a higher paying position in Saudi Arabia lmao

I love how The Mets are garbage already. I simply cannot support sports franchises that are good.

I think it's great that more and more people are seeing the value of therapy. Now we have to work on making it actually affordable and also making more therapists good.

State Rep. Tom Young being very horny on main for a former Statehouse reporter.

I misread the headline as one movie and got very excited for a moment…

I struggle to think of the kind of person who'd go back to work like nothing happened just after the woman he's cheating on his wife with sets herself on fire but it's the kinds of man who demands nude photos from nearly every woman he hires..it's that guy. It's the same guy.

big part of why the right insists everyone on the left is a paid agitator is because they themselves constantly put over paid agitators

You know I knew that Door Dash woman looked familiar

White House geniuses: We’re getting killed on the economy. Let’s get a video of a grandmother delivering McDonalds to a billionaire president who just had to explain why he posted a picture of himself depicted as Jesus Christ.

if you wanna see wild deep state shit, just watch and try to wrap your head around the list of democrats who vote this month to let tulsi gabbard and kash patel use wiretaps without a warrant

The country's descent into fascism cannot be understood without interrogating U.S. policing. But folks across the political spectrum are allergic to this so here we are.

I hate it here

“People already hate the police.” No, they don’t. They love the police. They can’t imagine life without the police. They’re giving as much money to the police as they can.

Chappell Roan’s bodyguards have taken Osgiliath. If we do not meet them on the Pelennor Fields all will be lost

One of the fundamental misunderstandings of fascism is that it is in any way intelligent.

"for unknown reasons, my mortal enemies appear to be concerned with the core essence of humanity in a way that my allies are not. oh well, better not think about it too hard."

THREAD. This single headline in the NYT contains two outrageous claims reported as fact: 1) Vance "tried" to end the war; and 2) he "opposed" it. Neither is supported, but the thing to understand is: why is lying about the *intention* of powerful people so key to propaganda?

They're going to get relegated.

No tactics, every player for themselves, no discernible patterns or strategy, Romero and van de Ven clearly playing like they want off this team...I know it's his first match but there is nothing distinguishing their form today from their form under Frank or Tudor

The War on Terror produced some truly embarrassing terrorism studies hacks in US academia, but god damn, Max Abrahms might take the crown.

Anyone caught with one of these should be immediately beaten to death with their own leg

nor, indeed, should inches at all enter into a congenial admeasurement of the whale

Patreons documentation is shit. They give you four different spreadsheets you have to combine to figure out your earnings and when you do it doesnt even include the withdrawal fee lmao

This really wasn't that bad, but my parents grew up in cities, in poorer and tougher neighborhoods their whole lives, only finding a degree of wealth and safety late in life and didn't understand why their kids wanted to go hang out in New York or Jersey City when we got into our teens and 20s lol

Alphabet, Meta, and Amazon all have headquarters in Seattle. This year the Seattle School District has an 80 million dollar shortfall.

“Why Upper Middle Class White Suburban Voters May Be the Path Forward for Democrats” by Thomas Uraniumcake

Guy who voted for Geogre Bush twice writing in a place called The Liberal Gazette: As we approach 2028, Democrats should be doing unpopular things that make them look stupid

"Sons of Confederate Veterans" lol

some people you can recruit, other people you have to simply defeat. politics makes more sense when you accept this

Don't taco Tuesday this shit. Millions of people spent the day wondering if they would get vaporized, and no one in our government stood up to him. Nothing cutesy about it.

This fundamental thing settled, the next point is, in what internal respect does the whale differ from other fish.

We won’t really feel alive and full of relief until we see tomorrow morning’s story about a new Kalshi account called “whitepwr_wifeleftme69” who signed up at 4 PM today and made $6 million

Wait for what Iran has to say. They've been saying no temporary ceasefire this entire time because they don't want to get caught in a situation where Israel keeps bombing them and they can't shoot back.

You have more in common with the people of Iran than you do with anyone in this administration, any member of the technocracy, anyone who is profiting from this war, or any billionaire. When you see Iranians forming human chains outside key infrastructure sites, you should feel a sense of kinship.

this is deadly serious now. this is easily the most consequential moment in time of my entire half century on the planet. and what will anyone in a position to do anything do? the moment will not be met

Yes, you stupid fucking asshole, Jesus Christ, watching adult liberals try to piece together reality is like watching a toddler try to pilot an airplane

“I have fascist instincts, but I can’t be fascist because I’m too smart” is a take that can only come from the guy who didn’t last a day at McDonald’s because “inferior races are good at working the frialator while the intelligent races struggle with manual labor”

I cannot bawl very heartily and work very recklessly at one and the same time.

Hey friends can you tell the head of the teacher’s union to maybe care enough about children to not burn down the planet????

Chapo Trap House: All politics are sexual pathology and the sexual pathology of the right is rape. The critics: PSHHHH that's too simplistic, this is a land of contrasted motives and complex individuals. Reality:

I can't remember why I blocked this Jerry guy, his name doesn't even ring a bell and that's fine. I'm fine with not remembering.

They want to kill us

Nickelodeon | Nick News (2020) | December 15, 2021; 7:30pm

These people are plain fucking stupid.

There are a lot of stupid politicians, but Greg Abbott might be the most credulous on social media. (The “photo” is AI)

The game electeds play where they pretend to powerlessly observe the actions of the government reveals how broken we are as a society. You're not some especially engaged Trader Joe's cashier connecting with a customer. You're in Congress. Tell us what you're doing about this.

It has a top down affect on everyone's daily experience. The already fragile moral threads stretching at the strain of late capitalism get shredded. Much of the country wakes up every morning knowing the system not only can't be trusted to begin with, but actively seeks to harm most of us
