DEPLOY TSAR BOMBA

Philly, is there a free way to look up a car by license plate? There's an adandoned vehicle in my neighborhood that the police won't do anything about

Stay woke, folks!

Yes. Yes, it is!

These people literally don't know how to conceive of a politics that isn't purely abstract, transactional. Liberalism/progressivism/socialism as brands you can choose between to try to mindjack voters

I've waited 3 years to make this post

Last year Anthony Blinken was personally directed by Joe Biden to go to the UK and ask David Lammy what the British needed from Israel in order for the UK to not suspend military exports licenses to Israel. In other words the POTUS told his chief diplomat to be the lawyer for another country.

I keep thinking this charade cant go on for much longer, and yet it persists

Also relevant:

Yeah it is certainly possible Israel will cozy up further to Russia or China but it should be emphasized that the Israelis will never get a sweeter deal than what has been given from 1968 to today by the US. There is not and never will be a replicable *ideological* commitment from any other country.

Took apart a piece of furniture for repair and learned where Spinch has been hiding all the kneaded erasers she’s stolen.

Zoomers gotta figure out that you can disapprove of something without demanding that the state take action about it beyond the purview of divorce court. It’s just one of those things that’s best handled privately but everyone has to get in each other’s business now.

Online poisoning has made everything and anything bad into Godwin's law imo. Same as the whole "west elm Caleb" thing from a few years ago. All things are one game of Seven Degrees of Kevin Bacon away from "they're dangerous", which necessitates punishment.

Trump’s funding cuts put CFPB on the brink of collapse as the agency says it is due to run out of money in early 2026. White House Budget Director Russell Vought said he cannot legally seek more until the Federal Reserve returns to what the administration deems 'profitability' reut.rs/4bc7dIt

Stephen King hit a milestone in 2025 w/ 4 adaptations of his work released in theaters, in addition to several shows. @judysquirrels.bsky.social writes abt how the King Cinematic Universe shows no sign of fading, for better and worse:

“‘The [country’s] rise in executions was driven primarily by the state of Florida, which carried out 19 executions, 40% of the year’s total’ of 47.” www.orlandosentinel.com/2025/12/30/f...

Everything you need to know about final fantasy you can learn from the Simpsons

I don't know why Fall Out Boy vs. Panic! at the Disco was ever a discussion. FOB could make Panic's discography in their sleep, but Panic couldn't even fumble together Folie à Deux if they tried.

"Pseudoscience in the witness box hardly stops at hair & bite marks. It sweeps in the testimony of...James Grigson, nicknamed Dr. Death for his willingness to testify against capital defendants, and flawed arson analysis that may have contributed to the execution of Texas’ Cameron Todd Willingham."👀

Purchased this book years ago and *finally* finished it this evening. Kind of shocking how many failed attempts there were to get an American doctor who off the ground - and that it all ended up with the McGann tv movie

🚨 UN aid workers who entered Sudan’s al-Fashir for the first time since the mass ethnic-cleansing violence that began on Oct. 26, following the city’s takeover by the Rapid Support Forces, say they found a city largely emptied of life. Only small numbers of civilians were seen sheltering in...

Not only do some people not want to be free, they are proud to admit they don't deserve it

Some people will look at liberation and believe it is more humiliating than accepting defeat

FREE LEXI she got suspended because certain libs couldn’t handle being called out for denying the genocide under Biden. while they’re still here. making jokes about the timeshares they’re gonna buy in Gaza

Thanks to @mrtalida.bsky.social's great 3D Scans of game character Keshi, I was able to 3D print this Princess Peach from Super Mario RPG to go with the cupcake display of my daughter's Peach themed birthday party.

Apparently "friendslop" is being used as a term to refer to low-budget indie co-op games. What a sad way to announce that you don't have friends.

"Slop" catching on as a general term for anything you don't like was a mistake.

I hate the antichrist

Everyone should take a tour of rare books at parkway central!

she clocked it. the policy is wrong, but the line that bugged me the most? “Indian Americans, he said, tell themselves: “We are the richest, best educated people. We don’t commit crimes. We go to good schools. We came here legally. We’re not like the Mexicans.”” brown is brown to the racists, pal
