gotta say, I don’t feel any form of “solidarity” towards unions that endorse republicans

When ChatGPT calls you Shirley instead of your real name, check if your phone is in airplane mode.

Happy 5 year anniversary to my amazing wife! (And our wedding azalea)

This is what happens when there's historically low trust in the Presidents of the United States of America

This is probably really offensive, but honestly sounds cool as hell

I’m always struck by how many civic spaces in the US still have “POW MIA” flags flying, even though that’s been conclusively debunked by historians. It would be like if in thirty years, all government buildings in the US are flying flags for the victims of QAnon.

virginia voters should call their delegates and senators and demand that they ignore this illegitimate ruling

Oh come the fuck on man how come every morning it’s more Airbud shit to wake up to, except the dog can only play basketball if it’s racist or whatever

this is really heartwarming. two men exchanging symbolic tokens of things the other has no interest in (football, peace)

Clearly I’m more sympathetic to the colosseum gladiators than Amy!

It's true. If farmers and farming communities and the exurban hangers on stopped voting, we would, in fact, get out of this mess.

whole states have stopped their election processes faster than the Biden administration was able to respond to an opinion that had already been leaked months earlier. i don't mean this as a random jab; republicans just understand power in a way that dems do not.

converts will never understand this

This is actually the perfect distillation of the right wing worldview. A predatory industry treats consumers unfairly so it must be immigrants' fault.

But hey! At least Schumer and Gillibrand endorsed Platner over Mamdani! Remember how not endorsing Mamdani wasn’t a big deal but how endorsing Platner was unforgivable? Anyway!

100%. Until the Supreme Court is reformed and the corrupt members removed, nothing else matters because the Supreme Court and its corrupt members will just stand in the way of everything else. Any Democrat who can't get behind that simple fact should leave politics now.

The Celtics and blowing leads: name a more iconic combo

My actual take on these NYT ‘here’s some morons’ things is that people are basically calling out for mediating insitutions to make politics comprehensible to them, because most people are not weird freaks like you probably are if you’re reading this, that like paying attention to this shit.

Guess the state yelled at Eric about how Worcester doesn’t actually get to “pause” things they already opted into. Classic Worcester!

I don’t think a lot of progs understand that the non-vibesession explanation is the worse option for them. It means Americans are much more sensitive to inflation than mass unemployment and wage stagnation, which is kind of a death knell for a real, sustainable workers politics in this country.

The media lives for opportunities to say “Democrats should be nicer to Trump.” They want to exist in the permanent state of “both sides” and are uncomfortable with straight reporting on Trump being a dementia-addled, incoherent, narcissistic fascist.

“I Slept Next Door to the Assassin in Hilton Room 10235” sounds like the title of a manga on the discount rack the store is desperately trying to get rid of so they can stock more One Piece.

lol, remember charlie kirk?

I hope no Democrat puts out any statement about this besides "lol" I know there's gonna be some tut-tutting, but that's really all this deserves

The Red Sox have announced Ed Augustus will be their new interim manager.

The red sox are committing emotional terrorism against me

Bagel is happy that it’s nice enough to play outside!

who’s running his PR team, Matt Patricia?

People in the new york times will really be like 'you believe in voting? that pales in effectiveness to my strategy, shoplifting from whole foods' and then shoplift from whole foods

The implicit media consensus is that urban voters should not be able to overrule rural voters, but that rural voters should be able to overrule urban voters, an assumption so axiomatic and unquestionable that nobody even understands they're making it.

we all know I have no life, so:

I have made this joke before but if you want a working definition of Blueskyism you could do a lot worse than “arriving at the airport 3+ hours early to a domestic flight and getting upset other people don’t”

More like “Tim Out-pple!” I think that was a real winner. Not terrible wordplay at all

You shouldn't be in Dem leadership if you're voting to give* Netanyahu $295 million in armored bulldozers. You are way out of step with your party. You're out of step with Dem-leaners too. * It's nominally a "sale," but paid for by us given the $3.8 billion in annual foreign military financing.

“Standing athwart history” by going back to 1534 and Henry the 8th

i hate that we all talk like fucking incels now

Oh no, the Red Sox suck again…

I don’t know it’s admirable that Moe Bergman is one of like 2 people on city council who respond to my emails, or deeply annoying because literally all of his responses are incredibly whiny and aggrieved

Please…don’t use that phrasing T&G

if I were an astronaut, I would name all of the moon craters ”time magazine’s 2006 person of the year crater” so everyone would know i was properly egalitarian

Finally feels like spring once the forsythia starts blooming!

This woman is a handpicked Trump supporter from Arkansas and she is less anti-trans than the median Atlantic columnist

It’s profoundly ignorant to suggest that the Pope should be fighting crime on behalf of the Catholic Church. Anyone who was remotely familiar with Roman Catholicism would know that that’s what Daredevil is for

Trump saying the Pope being weak on crime is a great example of how vacuous crime discourse is

Much respect for Jericho gutting through this match in the face of 40 texts from his wife about Viktor Orban.

>killed the pope >killed Orban’s political future >killed the prospects of a peace deal with Iran

that’s it. i cannot support donald trump anymore

It would be genuinely funny if she didn’t pay any attention to the news (I wouldn’t if I were her!) and just heard about the Epstein files a couple days ago or something
