Oh, right, the USA gutted $500 million of support for mRNA vaccines like this one

Funny how after every SCOTUS ruling striking down some protection from government abuse, the officials those protections restrained — cops, prosecutors, Republican state electeds — immediately start acting in the precise manner SCOTUS assured us they no longer do.

Red states can cancel elections and redraw the maps to cut out Black representation without any voter input, and no one stops them. Blue state asks the voters if they wanna redistrict, the voters say yes, and the court strikes it down.

Dear Friends, Please send this to your networks. Project Drawdown is offering full-time, paid (with benefits) fellowships to scientists and engineers working on climate solutions in the public interest. Deadline is April 17. drawdown.org/careers/clim...

Every week I see a post like “well, Silicon Valley has built a dick-breaking machine. No matter how you feel about getting your dick broken, it’s our responsibility to integrate mechanical dick-breaking into our schools.”

Me to Outlook: "Open the Fuckin’ attachment, you crazy bastard, or you’ll be living in Hell - JUST WATCH! Praise be to Allah."

These AI techbros have such a deeply inhumane, sociopathic, and nihilistic view of humanity and civilization. It's disturbing. And honestly, just so, so facile.

It's not a new observation, but I'm always struck listening to Trump cry and whine about how he's the victim, bitch and moan about how mean and unfair everyone is to him, brag endlessly about how great he is and how unfair it all is, to remember that his cult thinks he's the Peak Alpha Male

Each day brings a new fresh Hell. www.bostonglobe.com/2026/02/18/n...

Honestly, I'm just surprised the Florida Department of Health is keeping track. www.cidrap.umn.edu/campylobacte...

I remember reading an article in Forbes where a bunch of hedge fund managers and tech CEOs predicted which jobs would be replaced by AI. They predicted that all jobs would be replaced except CEOs.

“Trump didn’t do nothing bad”

I am an Alpha Male, the living embodiment of the red-blooded American masculine ideal. I was prompted to "Press 1 for English" today. I don't think I shall ever recover.

@sheologian.bsky.social In your region of North Carolina, is it normal for a few motorists to lose control every time it rains? I lived in Conover for 2 years and commuted to Charlotte and back every weekday. During those big summer rains, I would always see 2-3 cars in a ditch alongside Highway 16.

Deep Space Nine Oh Two One Oh

I refuse to give that greedheaded libertarian space in my head as a hero. But the sonofabitch has been consistent on extrajudicial killings by presidents since al-Awlaki and if he keeps this up, I going to be really pissed off at whatever measure of grudging respect I'll have to supply.

It's always the last patient of the day who has a Chinese menu in his hand, looking for a place called Lee Ho Fooks

Really growing uneasy seeing all the businesses with names like "Ken's Konstruction Kompany" or "Karen's Kustom Kreations."

Look at Panda Express! I honestly had no idea it was ranked second.

I must not fear. Fear is the mind-killer. Fear is the little-death that brings total obliteration. I will face my fear. I will permit it to pass over me and through me. Nothing bad can happen. It can only good happen.

mr president sir theres a story coming about how you intervened to help a sex criminal. no sir, not that sex criminal you helped….no not that one either…sir, please stop guessing sex criminals that you helped. ill give you a hint sir, hes a trafficker. no sir, not that trafficker a different one

EVERYTHING is more expensive this year. "Here's how to navigate higher prices" = "If I want this thing, I guess I'll just have to pay more for it."

Why did every Microsoft product suddenly get worse about 6 months ago? Word defaults to saving every document to my last visited folder instead of each document's original folder, which it used to do. I basically have to beg Outlook to attach a file to an email.

If you say things on TV like "Raping an 8yo is worse than raping a 15yo" you should be launched into a volcano

During his campaign, Trump (& RFK) promised to rein in the use of dangerous pesticides, but the EPA has loosened oversight and is accelerating pesticide approvals. Notably, the top 4 positions in the new Trump EPA’s chemical safety office are held by former pesticide and chemical industry lobbyists

People who devote this much time and energy to doing stupid shit probably never face any real challenges in life. "I am going to make a conscious effort to not wash my hands after I pee!" Dude has way too much time on his hands, nothing productive to do.

[update] - you have received a $2,000 direct deposit in your Flexible Spending Account courtesy of President Trump [update] - you have received your Hospital - Invoice.pdf for $109,563.98 [update] - Flexible Spending Account balance is now negative $107,563.98

this looks like a trick daffy duck would put up to get bugs bunny into "the oval office"

I'm starting to have some hope that the parasocial fondness a lot of people have for Trump isn't enough to overcome the dismal reality of rising prices, stagnant wages, mass layoffs, and rampant government corruption.

Mike Johnson doesn't know sh*t

One of my favorite things about music is when two musicians/groups from wildly different genres tell the same story with their unique styles. Think "Give It Away" by George Strait and "Eucalyptus" by The National.

Just completely bonkers. It also completely takes the wind out of his supporters' argument that "he doesn't even take a salary!"

I know several MAGA adherents in my age range (mid-30s) who are intelligent, educated professionals. They simply hold the view that people of certain sexual orientations and ethnic backgrounds are somehow lesser and thus undeserving of empathy.

I know a number of well-educated MAGAs. I too wish folks on the left would quit treating this as a lack of education. What they lack isn't education, or even intelligence. What they lack is empathy.

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?”

Meanwhile back on X, I'm seeing posts from tradwives I don't follow who regularly post pro-Hitler content.

And you may tell yourself, "Nothing bad can happen." And you may tell yourself, "It can only good happen." And you may tell yourself, "But with Tylenol, don't take it."

"Nothing bad can happen. It can only good happen," I say to myself as I start each day.

@caulimovirus.bsky.social This happened right after you arrived in the country. I believe I've discovered what our illustrious HHS Secretary would call a causal relationship. www.1news.co.nz/2025/09/23/t...

Fun facts and definitions: - a BOG is a wetland that is acidic - a FEN is a wetland that is alkaline - a SWAMP is a wetland that can support trees - a MARSH is a wetland that cannot support trees Now you know!

I miss the old brand #CDC

At this point they should rename it the Centers for Disease.
