genuinely wondering if some GOP whiz-kid ran some numbers and told the administration "look if we keep up this anti-vax bullshit all our voters will be dead by 2032" so they've pivoted to... tylenol

Seriously, nothing beats having this on while going about your Saturday business!

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.

There is also absolutely still a value in yelling about hypocrisy, because every time you do, somebody will come closer to noticing it themselves. “They get away with this because they can” is both the truth *and* the thing we can help our neighbors realize

There's been legitimate grassroots pushback this year to the usual GOP bulldozering I've grown used to here in Indiana. The redistricting fight combined with being finally good and fed up by AES gouging us AND Franklin so far gamely fighting back against the proposed Google data center. Heartening!

If this is your policy you’re saying only young women early in the careers can work for the organization. Women can work there, but they have to leave before they have a chance to advance up the ranks. www.nytimes.com/athletic/661...

I firmly believe there are few more disgusting people alive than this bootlicker

Congratulations Pamela Whitten! Mike Braun must be so proud of you!!

"Indiana Could Get Bigger" should tbh scare the fuck out of everyone who reads it lol NO ONE WANTS MORE INDIANA!!!

Catching up on @channel6.bsky.social and dammit if Holly didn’t womp my feeling with this. Anyway, if you like CFB, bullshittery, or just being entertained as hell check out her and Spencer’s work.

If not for Chicago, we might not have Labor Day. Keep your eyes peeled on Monday for a much longer video where I dive into the history of unionization, violent strike suppression, and workers’ victories in Chicago, and how they impacted workers across the country.

Why does IPS have so many buildings it can't afford to properly maintain??? 🫢

Here’s better reporting about that which seems to be missing from most U.S. reporting

Wait… is the city council considering doing a good thing? Is that allowed? Fuck that data center

it's crazy that being like "how do i explain gay couples to my kids?" isn't an unthinkably embarrassing to say in 2025. it's actually incredibly easy to explain, that should be like indignantly saying "how am I supposed to explain to my kids where the sun goes at night? did a bird steal it?!"

"Gavin Newsom is America's Keir Starmer" is perhaps the most devastating thing that has ever been or could ever be said about an American.

But I love my freedom to play allergy roulette when I go out!

No understanding of Chinese required to enjoy. Probably better without it

Do you think Indiana needs more useful train options? Here’s a chance to add your input!

We need to build some real social stigma around being afraid of cities. You don't have to like them or live there, but a politics built this strongly around watching TV and going "ewww" is embarrassing, and people should be embarrassed by it. It's like "fear of werewolves" being your top issue.

DC statehood is now an imperative. No more dicking around. Next Dem majority, get it done immediately.

Getting outflanked by the fucking Pod Save Bros on Palestine? JFC, just say Palestinians have a right to live. Have a goddamn heart instead of spewing think tank consultant barf.

Barely an hour ago, Palestinian journalist Anas Al-Sharif warned us all: “If this madness doesn’t end, Gaza will be reduced to ruins, its people’s voices silenced, their faces erased — and history will remember you as silent witnesses to a genocide you chose not to stop.” Israel just killed him.

Key lime pie milkshake slaps

Furthest I’ve been: N - Bozeman, Montana S - Grand Goave, Haiti E - Port-au-Prince, Haiti W - Portland, Oregon Man… I need to get out more

Indiana leads the nation in few categories. Fascist dickheads is one of those.

Future Well There’s Your Problem episode. Hopefully it’s just a giant waste of money… not life. On the other hand they’re gonna need a lot of horse viscera to power this thing

Mike Elias Closes Trade Deadline Business as Carcass of Oriole Bird Dragged Off by Stray Cat Horde

And all of it was stolen and never reached the people. No aid agencies have started distributing to civilians yet!

on the one hand we should want people to change their mind so we can stop what's happening now. On the other hand there need to be costs for the ghoulish behavior that got us here, as these people absolutely will do this again given half a chance

The mass starvation & killing of Palestinians in Gaza at the hands of the Israeli gov’t is a chillul hashem, a desecration of God. Jewish leaders who criticized Zohran Mamdani for three words he doesn’t use should raise their voices loudly here as well. forward.com/opinion/7575...

Anyone earnestly using “Girl Dad” as a descriptor 🚩

High school summer break. 90% chance there were like 20 dudes in my parents basement playing Halo 2.

Adam Johnson more tactfully gets to this frustration

it’s really well done. perhaps doing something useful in our acres of surface parking is popular! anyway no lessons to learn here for the city. the clean streets will disappear on Monday and all the parking spots will be gloriously retuned to action.

Defense letter confirms Indiana's Camp Atterbury to be used for immigrant detention. indianacapitalchronicle.com/2025/07/18/d...

Few things hit harder than my 3 YO describing to her mom, my wife who I love dearly, how much she likes being best friends with me.

A new law targeting county prosecutors doesn’t mention Ryan Mears by name, but he is at least partly the inspiration behind it. Indiana lawmakers passed a bill this year to form a review board to investigate prosecutors who refuse to file charges for certain crimes mirrorindy.org/marion-count...

In Gaza, in Texas, everywhere

Pretty excited to be taking my daughter to her first baseball game tonight for Indy vs Louisville (went to a Reds game before she turned 1 but not gonna count that).

This includes a LOT of education programs. I suppose that makes sense to a piece of shit like Braun that thinks anybody high school graduate with a certificate should be allowed to teach kids? I fucking hate the politics of this state

Indianapolis lost federal matching funds for replanting trees in the city because of the word “diversity” in biodiversity. www.indystar.com/story/news/e...

“… we’re going to stand up for Haiti. Because you taught the world about freedom. It’s time for us to return the favor” is such a bar. I hope Zohran gets the chance to do something big!

punting on 2nd and 3 at the opponent’s 20 is something we will never ever see in football, because if a coach was trying to throw a game there are many more subtle ways of doing so. this is probably the closest thing to that we’re likely to see

Kirsten Gillibrand has a racist meltdown over Zohran Mamdani on public radio: defector.com/kirsten-gill...

God, this is a cursed discourse, but: Souder, Breyer, and Stephens all retired when their minds were still sharp and they were years away from death. (Breyer is still with us.) Ginsburg was uniquely selfish, and her legacy is ashes.

Just ridiculous that one side didn’t want to do anything to change the courts because it would seem like an overreach and the other is using it to completely dismantle and redesign the law, country, and redefine who is allowed to exist here.

Love to see an (alleged) abuser like Hjelle get that absolute jelly squeezed out of him! Yes this is forced but fuck that tall ass dude

Real talk, the only reason people expect Muslim leaders to immediately enact sharia law when they take office is because thats what Christians do.

oh no! don't do it!
