We live in a country where the two most dynamic, charismatic, eloquent politicians of this century have the first names Barack and Zohran. This is what bothers the white supremacists so much.

I saw this "Far Side" cartoon from December 6, 1987, and couldn't believe it was real. But it is. That Gary Larson--he was forty years ahead of his time.

This is so great 🩵🤍🩷

I've never heard her sound so angry. Good for her.

I’m so exhausted by these dull lazy people and the media that panders to them. There’ll be a thousand think pieces about “smug liberals” when they inevitably want absolution and don’t get it 😡

"Pancreatic cancer mRNA vaccine shows lasting results in an early trial: Scientists caution that more research is needed, but nearly all of the patients who responded to the personalized vaccine are still alive six years later."

This is hilarious but also — slight tangent — exactly how sex education *reduces* the number of teen pregnancies, despite the screaming from religious conservatives. If they truly wanted the Christian world they yell about, they’d help liberals make sex, drugs and rock ‘n’ roll *boring* 😂

One thing the 1980s did really well was the TV show theme song. Here’s a nostalgic thread 👇🏼

I know Oprah and Bezos were blowing Gail's phone right tf UP! "Gail! DO SOMETHING!"

This is a valid point: whenever you see this sort of high-pressure sales tactic turned on a technology, you can be CERTAIN that it's a fake—actually useful new tech sells itself! And don't underestimate the effectiveness of FOMO as a tool in the hands of a con artist.

I mean personally I might have written "Incels travel abroad to prey on poor women," but to each their own.

Seems like the Strait of Hormuz is only open when the stock market is.

Catherine Cullen: Why is it important for you to use that word "socialism"? Avi Lewis: It's not. It's just accurate. I know what I am and I don't see any need to hide it. I also think socialism is really having a comeback in North America. And I think it's time.

wow! I was gonna say every journalist that attends this correspondence dinner is a full-on traitor at this point; but that was before I knew about invisible secret pocket messages! I was wrong, this isn't hypercringe, this is bravery! this is probably what will bring down this administration!

The hippies grew up to be Reaganites and the Occupy generation grew up to be vain influencers who will do or say anything for engagements. *GETS BLACK BAGGED AND SHOVED INTO A VAN*

My good deed of the day was *not buying* the Tom Petty #RSD record, giving the one in my hand to the guy in line behind me because he said that was the one record he came in to buy. This must be what Oprah must feel like all the time.

Fox News beta cuck Sean Hannity: “As of today, I no longer consider myself a Catholic.” Not only selling out your dignity and integrity but also your eternal afterlife for a man who would push you in front of a bus if you got in his way. Good work. 1/2

Once again, viewpoint diversity is not neutral. So here we have Harvard, citing a discredited author without scientific background in their assessment of whether or not they need more conservative voices “seeded across departments.”

If a third of the country stopped blaming immigrants while simultaneously being sycophants to CEOs, we could start down the road for changing this.

"as a man I just don't know what to do to get women to date me, they're so complicated" get a cat. love the cat. post videos of you being in love with your cat. omg it's so simple

Lunch with my antisemitic dad takes a turn today when he suddenly gets huffy about “all the Arabs” serving. “Anglos said all the same things about Italians decades ago,” I say. “We brought things! What do they bring!” “Music? Architecture? Chocolate? Food?” “You eat their food?” “Jesus, dad” 😡

THREAD!

I’m in Stoney Creek, where my niece offers to drive me to the GO train station in Hamilton but our aunt says no no, Confederation Station is right here. Great! Except we arrive and there’s no train until 5pm?? So we drive to Hamilton anyway for a 2:30pm train and they wonder why ridership is low 🫤

I’d stop this but hey, that’ll be ME one day!

THE PITT. Fuck, what a show 💔

hey i’m thinking of getting into crime does anyone know if the FBI director is blacked out currently

The Coachella music festival is in the news with the minimum price of sold out 3-day ticket costing $549. Contrast that with "Nicolas" who is currently harvesting onions in the Coachella area and getting paid $22 for a $900lb crate. #WeFeedYou #coachella2026

Hegseth saying “The Pharisee Press” should be a fully mask off moment. He is saying “The Jewish Press”. But Christians of all political stripes are so devoted to using Pharisees as a rhetorical prop that liberal Christians regularly insist it’s totally fine, no matter how many Jews try to explain.

America is one smooooooooth-sailing ship right now, holy shit 😂

Patel beating Hegseth to crashing out of the admin for being miserable drunk who can’t drag himself outta bed was not how I saw this going. Figured he’d turn up dead in a pool of his own vomit in a Vegas strip club with a pair of edible underwear lodged in his throat and a condom over his whole head

Run, don’t walk, to this week’s episode of HACKS before someone spoils the legendary cameo from Ann Dowd. This woman can do anything 👑

I’m reading @vickyacab.bsky.social’s THE EXTENDED UNIVERSE, abt Disney’s fanatical commitment to franchiseable IP. It’s insightful, intelligent, and principled, and illuminating about one corporation’s manipulation of copyright for profit. And it’s a fun read! www.haymarketbooks.org/books/2525-t...

I agree that restaurants need to introduce the “non-Irish” serving size 🍟

I was NOT ready 😮😮😮

I like a good straightforward ad 👍🏼

How can America possibly compete with Iran's rapping Legos?

We all deserve more ease. That's really it.

OUT: Carney's speech. IN: Spanish Prime Minister Pedro Sanchez speech in Beijing "navigate this post-Rupture world in which Washington’s reliability can no longer be assumed, and in which Beijing’s partnership, however complicated, cannot be refused" www.sinicapodcast.com/p/pm-pedro-s...

Again, THE BOYS is ludicrous and horrible but not even inventing anything! They’re just doing this 😬

Ooh! I have a theory about this! The old Robber Barons knew you couldn't escape death. Rich people still caught diseases or died from infections. Simply by virtue of the era in which they were born, they knew they were not safe from Death. This current crop of dipshits thinks they will beat Death.

getting doug ford to out-loud say "god bless the weston family' is the greatest soundbite one could hope for.

I love the Bluesky collective but our ability to *totally miss the point of a post* so we can pedantically nitpick at some detail or another left unexplored in 280 characters is unmatched. It’s adorable sometimes but mostly exhausting.

This is also why they maintained middleclasses; to buffer them from the horribly oppressed groups. The middleclasses did the work of squashing any revolt from the marginalized. Now we are seeing that they don't need those overseers anymore. Everyone can now be oppressed.

This recently unearthed recording of Robert Johnson playing in 1936 sounds *incredible* 🔥😮

Fucking HELL

Greg Stoker is running for office in Texas and yow, does America ever need him and more like him 🇺🇸

Grandpas popping up all over with the hardest songs of 2026.
