submitted for your approval: an ad to become a cop directly above a paragraph talking about one cop shooting another cop

See this would be a tattoo that you could have if you simply made a bad decision. This is a tattoo you can still not have covered up but feel embarrassed by.

centrist: Where do we go from here? We have to find common ground. We can't just call the other group "Nazis." At the end of the day, we're all just rich white men with podcasts. Republican lawmaker: Welcome to Hitler Chat. I'm Hitler Republican lawmaker 2: Hello. I am Hitler as well.

Yup. A few months ago, I pointed out that part of the reason for ICE employees covering their faces, was that some of them were likely government contractors and not law enforcement, and so has no legal authority to detain. People that know nothing about criminal justice reform yelled at me.🤷🏿‍♂️

America is being run by people whose social media presence would see them getting fired from a part time job stacking shelves. If you worked at Aldi and posted a video of you pouring shit all over Aldi customers, you wouldn't work at Aldi.

Donald Trump shelled J.D. Vance's security detail.

"Mr. President sir the idea is you're constantly flying around in a big jet filled with your own shit in it. Like human shit. Anyways you're wearing a little crown in your little shitmobile and you're dumping the shit out. I think people will like it."

your fucking tax dollars and mine paid for a bunch of professional government trolls to have at least(!) one actual fucking meeting about how epic it would be to all join bluesky at the same time. people wrote fucking emails about this. from dot gov addresses

i like nice stamped cross stitch kits but the only high quality ones came from Chinese companies. i can't find any now, and American companies are full of AI designs that are way too cheap for how complicated they're being presented as. sucks

4 months apart

obsessed recently w recommended videos i keep getting of a dude who by all means does great car wraps but then he'll wad up the extra wrap material, try to punt it, and kick it all shitty & off center while overextending his leg or tripping a little

NEW — I dug into the story of ICE abducting a 13-year-old boy in Massachusetts and moving him 500 miles across state lines without notifying his mother, local cop's complicity, and how the federal government's justification for such cruelty is already falling apart:

Every time a Democrat gets caught on tape saying like “Some Trump voters are racist” we have a national scandal and JD Vance demands an entirely new kind of apology and meanwhile every Republican group chat is like “Good morning fellow SS members. Who’s ready to respect Hitler today?”

i hope someday they hold a memorial event commemorating my death and some guy i tried to suck up to ambles up to the mic and is like "uh, couldn't be me."

we definitely do need journalism in the United States and we can't really count on the private sector to keep it going. we really do need the federal US government to go ahead and allocate money in the future for this country to barely function, using models that work in other countries.

eventually politicians need to start advocating for criminal and civil penalties for people involved in fabricating stories to get citizens incarcerated. or, put another way: a society that would like to keep functioning has to discourage baldfaced lying, especially by authorities

This is excellent.

also one protest with ten thousand people in one place is a lot easier for cops to manage than ten protests with a thousand people in ten places

One of the things I took away from the 60s and Richard Nixon, first mentioned by Hunter Thompson, but I believe to be true, is the fact that we believed, at time, that all our protesting, marching and sign waving was futile and pointless when in fact, it drove Richard Nixon to alcohol fueled madness

I do not regret to inform you that we are going to win

Gotta think this is a response to the Disney plus cancellations for the Jimmy Kimmel shit and I don’t think it’ll work because people were actually upset about that instead of pretending to be upset

important for us in the US to note: even a solidly right wing government can't ignore this.

it rocks a lot to post my opinion in contradiction to someone else's then mute replies. i know it's bad internet etiquette but it does fuck and make my day good

I am just so fucking proud of her.

Wow, the University of Washington's Psych 201 class does *not* play go fuckin Huskies Nazi UW students fuck off

A quick note about money and comedy and power. www.vanityfair.com/hollywood/st...

Remember Trump told the news that he didn’t know what Project 2025 was and that alot of it seemed crazy to him and the media was like ok sounds good

ER doc here! This is a lie. Wait times are up because the American healthcare system is an unsustainable business model and a for-profit national healthcare system just doesn’t work. These problems will continue to get worse until we change that system. It literally has nothing to do with immigrants

i know hegseth's speech was intended to tell the military they won't get prosecuted for war crimes and beating your wife won't hold up getting promoted to O-4, but bringing in trump fresh from death's door is a really persuasive way to unconsciously tell them the crimes jubilee may not last too long

it seems really good that the entire american government right now is these two dumb bitches and 1000 evil viziers

yeah they're just murdering random people on these boats

from time to time i think about how theory of mind is considered one of the essential criteria for human-like consciousness and this is what people like this guy are burning out of themselves

Whatever would they do if they had to acknowledge that they are forever trying to appeal to people who will never vote for them

This is really great reporting from Mother Jones - the "godfather" of evidence-based medicine disavows the Society for Evidence-Based Gender Medicine for misusing his work. www.motherjones.com/politics/202...

small child has been activated by the Texas Roadhouse birthday yeehaw. he's yeehawing at an exponential rate. he can't be stopped

It was never about the papers

Yep, this is exactly what I'd have expected. Great article from Ken.

i am seriously begging democrats to bring the same smoke to this story that they brought to jimmy kimmel being indefinitely suspended

BREAKING: Death toll in Dallas ICE facility shooting rises to 4, DHS spokesperson says. - NYP

150k stitches, ~ 1 year of work

Only 1 person in the whole study went from identifying as trans to not identifying as trans. The 1/5 number came from youth going between the binary and non-binary spectrum. This headline and post are misleading on purpose to fit the economist's editorial bent on the political issue.

it's better to think of the useless centrist 'expand the tent but only rightwards' media people & politicians as blockers paid to occupy space that could otherwise be utilized productively by a serious person. their opinions are pre-approved by their donors and will never change

As usual with this issue, Harris is calling for a compromise that already exists. Every sporting body has standards for how long athletes must be on hormones before they can compete as women. The problem isn’t that we’re ignoring ‘reasonable concerns,’ the problem is that republicans are lying.

Democrats hate the LGBTQ community. Only have to go back ten years to see them talking about gay people the way they talk about trans folks now, right on the doorstep of Obergefel no less.
