If the US can ever vomit this stupid era out we're gonna need widespread all-ages education on basic facts like when you'd see old billboards or MST3k shorts advertising the concept of hand washing or being good. Stop Using Gasoline To Wash Clothes. Springs Are Ubiquitous & Essential To Modern Life

LOL. Baker Mayfield. Come on! 😂

Brian Schottenheimer has two pens and a highlighter clipped to his visor which I think legally makes him my favorite football coach.

I love Jake Ferguson but NOT NOW

Panthers playing like a middle of the road team today, which is a huge improvement, not going to sugarcoat it.

Once American democracy made it possible for a Black man to be elected president, American conservatives decided that it had to be destroyed

This goes hard.

The MMWR allowed public health workers in New York to start piecing things together — the beginnings of recognizing a major epidemic (and then a pandemic). It is unspeakably important. Of course this administration is at war with the notion that there is a public, or a society.

With news that they are trying to fire the staff of the MMWR, I thought I would note that AIDS first came to the attention of public health workers broadly from an MMWR report describing an unusual cluster of pneumonia in gay men in San Francisco.

People deserve to be prosecuted for this. Horrendous.

LA: we will fight you. Chicago: we will fight you. PDX: we will make you endure week after week of of improv theater.

Whether it's Democrats making it harder for kids to get cigarettes or Republicans making it harder for kids to get vaccines, both sides have imposed the will of government on America's children.

Watching MONSTER: THE ED GEIN story, which should have been about three episodes long, but is eight. The first two were art, but it’s increasingly filler. As I told my girlfriend “feels like it was made by people who had more money than sense and had to make eight episodes or else.”

Farm bankruptcies are back in the news, so it's time to pull this chart out again. Hey look they kept rising during Trump's first term. Then they went way down under Biden. Now they're up again? So weird. Thanks Farm Bureau for the graphic

A billion dollars is the socio-political equivalent of a loose nuke, and we should work as ruthlessly and diligently to prevent the acquisition of the former as we do the latter.

Bernie Wrightson giant center spread from the House Of Mystery - Limited Collectors’ Edition 23 (Facsimile Edition) treasury edition.

Where can we nominate the Portland Frog?

I had never heard of Mr. Schnapp prior to today, and my life is so much richer for knowing him. One of the greatest arguments for social media really is moments like this.

Picture how big the Hoover Dam is. An absolute unit. The Hoover Dam has a power capacity of 2 gigawatts (GW). The solar farm that the Admin just cancelled could have produces 6.2 GW of power. That's more than 3 Hoover Dams.

Ah, happy 88th anniversary of the day Oswald Mosley tried to sell fascism to Liverpudlians – and someone concussed him with a brick

Today is the birthday of Ira Schnapp (Oct. 10, 1894-July 24, 1969). A letterer, and ad & logo designer, he refined the Superman logo w/ Superman #6 (1940) & designed logos for the Flash, JLA, Green Lantern, Atom, Hawkman, & more. He also designed house ads & the stamp for the Comics Code Authority.

I feel like a broken record, but I have to keep saying it over and over again: a farmer bailout won’t do much of anything because the market is gone. There will be no incentive to plant next year. The bailout will help payoff farmer debt to the banks. That’s all.

During a government shutdown, the Trump administration is bailing out Argentina, whose president is fond of saying, “The state isn’t the solution, it’s the problem.”

these people are actually out of their fucking minds and im so sick of being told we need to pretend otherwise

There is no way to view this as a correct course of action. None. If you can watch this video and think these masked men are at all justified, you are a moral void.

AI companies are spending billions on deals with each other, which boost their value. This has helped twenty billionaires tied to AI add $450B to their fortunes in 2025. Meanwhile, an MIT study found that 95% of companies using AI haven't seen returns on investment. Be warned.

When I see this, I wonder if people realize that Jim Crow racism in the American south was a type home-grown fascism. It was not (just) a superficially genteel system of social deference. Refusing to defer was often met with incredible violence designed to terrorize the entire Black community.

“And also the New York Jets” if we’re just tossing out names

“Lee Greenwood, or role models” is a fantastic phrase, you can just hear the flop sweat in it.

Sort of hoping this means I’ll be paid to eat out, but probably not, right?

I see pieces like this a lot, often w/ a spin of lamenting cultural degeneration, but reading is a LABOR issue, it’s declined because so many people are working overtime or two jobs & employers expect after hours work. France has Earth’s highest reading rate b/c long lunch breaks & labor protections

Reuters photographer Jonathan Ernst noticed that Bondi flipped open a file during the Senate hearing and he zoomed in. Inside were her crib notes for attacking the senators. The GOP now practicing Cliff's Notes Fascism In other words, under oath Bondi was purely a performance.

Sounds like Republicans ought to get all the Republicans who form the Republican majorities in the Republican-led House and the Republican-led Senate together to pass the budget that Republicans wrote with the Republican White House and that Republicans now insist absolutely must be passed.

There is a coffee shop across the street from my apartment complex I could walk to in theory, but not only is there not a cross walk, there aren’t even sidewalks.

Magical thinking on full display.

wrote this line yesterday: "If President Trump were, in other words, trying to instigate some kind of national divorce, it is hard to imagine what he would be doing differently than this."

Watch this Titans TD, TRUST ME. You cannot predict ball.

Freakin snakebit Chargers, I swear.

Aaron Judge should never get into the Hall of Fame.

Annoyed Tom Brady is the best Tom Brady.

I didn’t need another reason to hate the Yankees, but they have this way of generating more just by being themselves.

Is there an article where someone explains what’s going on with Bluesky leadership? I see people talking about it, but I’m only getting pieces and it’s very unclear.

The Blue Jays really understand the assignment.

don't compare yourself to other people or where you think you should be or where you wish you were or even to you before it happened. it's only useful to compare yourself to where you were when you were at your lowest imo. every episode is a hard reset on Everything, so don't beat yourself up 🤝

I finished this beautiful story yesterday and I don't think I ever have or will read something like this again (unless HS2 is green-lit!!) ((crossing my fingers)) I adored the characters and the art is stunning. If you can, you should treat yourself to Hello Sunshine this spooky season. #👑🍒📙
