When I say I stand on business this what I mean.

Really happy The Timberwolves didn’t give in to Milwaukee’s extortionist demands. Instead of blowing up the team’s young core Connelly kept it intact and added a seemingly very good fit, who is also young core-ish, for beans. Good stuff.

I’ve seen the discourse, but I really don’t hate the new Star Trek. It definitely has a YA bent, but it handles it well. I positively like the fact that they’re rebuilding Star Fleet from first principles, for a new generation. Also, Holly Hunter.

I really think Chili’s deserves more respect on its name. In any given suburb it’s better than the generic place that pretends it’s not part of a corporate conglomerate where all the people who wear fleece vests over button-ups tucked into their jeans go.

The average Minnesotan bottles their anger, only letting it explode once every 10 years, like some kind of rage Cicada. We're all polite, or at most passive aggressive to each other because you don't want to be the one on the receiving end of what could be the last crash out you'll ever see.

I vaguely want more followers, but it's not that important. it'd be pleasant, like discovering you were given 11 mcnuggets in your 10pc box

Thank God there were people filming. This administration would have said Alex Pretti pulled a handgun, a package of fentanyl, and a signed copy of the Communist Manifesto if they could.

The George Floyd “riots” didn’t start until it became clear neither The City nor The State were going to press charges against his murderer. We need to see charges NOW.

I’d just like to point out that in this war on illegal immigration, not a single employer of illegal immigrants has been arrested. The War on Drugs was idiotic, but at least they arrested dealers from time to time!

I don’t think you can overstate how pissed off people around here are right now.

Oh great, Fernando Po is in the news.

I drive rideshare in The Twin Cities between the hours of 6:00pm and 7:00am. I have yet to see any evidence of ICE activity. These dudes are getting blotto in hotel bars before rush hour’s over, at taxpayer expense, every single night.

I’ve never lost my keys. I don’t put cases on phones, and they’re always uncracked when I’m done with them. Yes, I have a pen, and it’s most likely been in my pocket for 3-4 years. I’ve had the same wallet since 1996. I’m not the best at a lot of stuff, but my pocket control game is ON POINT.

As a Minneapolitan I’d like to state everything here is fine. Crime is down thanks to the Federal crackdown and I am not at all under duress. Skol

YOUTUBE: you like history ME: I do! YOUTUBE: and you're white ME: well, I mean YOUTUBE: here are some white people who also like histor-- ME: no no no No NO NO NO

@profanity.accountant hi

Mystic Knights of Tir Na Nog Pasta (1998-1999): Canned pasta in a tomato/cheese sauce from Franco-American, shaped like weapons, a castle, and a dragon from the short-lived Fox Kids action-fantasy series from Saban, which was set in ancient Ireland

My latest cartoon for @airmail.news about one of our time’s greatest scourges: #privateequity

It’s been so long since the Blue Jays won the World Series that the last time it happened the President was born in 1946 and had ties to Jeffrey Epstein.

Democratic Senators : someone should stand up for freedom of speech this is a crisis Republican Senators : anyone got shit to say about our National Charlie Kirk Day of Sainthood Democratic Senators : *scuff feet, look away* Republican Senators : that's what we fucking thought bitches, sit down

The bank app is telling me to "tap & pay like a boss😏" and "rally my crew". I am 37 years old and you are the bank. Don't talk to me this way.

If you say 'heteronormative' or 'unhoused person' or 'food insecurity' you're basically talking gibberish and nobody can understand you but if you say you can see inflammation in children at the airport and that vaccines lower IQ or that germs are a myth you get to fire all the scientists.

Every news outlet that reports on US stocks "surging" should be required to note that the wealthiest 10% of Americans hold more than 90% of all the value of US stocks.

The divine right of kings ended because human beings did things. In a bunch of places. Because things got so bad that that's what had to happen. How that happened, how that change happened, went differently in different places. There's not one answer.

I think AI is going to eventually tank in the longterm, but... the only real way to combat this is single-interest communities. Forums, user comms, etc, with a barrier to entry. They become trustable knowledgebases. It's really the only way forward is to return to what worked best the first time

Well past time for big city mayors to call for the arrest of anyone who claims to be law enforcement but wears a mask and/or won’t identify themselves

Republicans: WE NOMINATE SKELETOR Democrats: We dislike Skeletor but we will vote to confirm him. Please give us between 5 and 50 dollars. <Later> Democrats: I stand before you to condemn the actions of Skeletor. He should have never been given this power. Please give me between 5 and 50 dollars.

been saying this for like 3 years now, the core constituency of the "manosphere" is not Gen Z or teenage boys, it is 35-55 year old dudes who wish they were still teenage boys

It’s short for Space XPlode

My plans for a major retail emporium are being threatend by wholesalers who won't let me steal the stock.

Two headlines in the New York Times today.

Democratic leaders act like time travelers afraid to do anything that might change the future

I just need everyone to watch this and understand I have been laughing about it for 24 hours

the president says we're all going to have a fantastic life on the hale bopp comet

Bill Burr is a national treasure 🎯! "You journalists need to get your balls back"

A Republican politician in New Mexico was convicted of orchestrating four drive-by shootings of Democratic officials. So why does it feel like it was a Democrat who orchestrated four drive-by shootings of Republicans?

If we can "avoid a government shutdown" by voting for this CR, then why is the entire Department of Education closed today? Why is USAID closed? Why are hundreds of billions in grant contracts frozen? We are already in the shutdown. And your votes DON'T stop it. In fact, they allow it to expand.

this is government by shakedown, and congressional democrats need to reject it. a government run on these conditions is legitimately *much* worse than one that shuts down entirely, and i do not at all take the consequences of the latter lightly.

been around the world and ay ay ay a dingo ate my baby

If a Country Music performer who had 22 Grammys and a Pulitzer Prize was doing the Super Bowl Halftime Show I can GUARANTEE I’d know who they were, and have given their music a listen. Anybody who says they never heard of Kendrick Lamar is telling on themselves.

Someone called Teslas "Swasticars", and I'll be using that.

You trust Fox News (the most popular media), Joe Rogan (the post popular podcast), Donald Trump (the popular vote winner), and Elon Musk (richest man). Baby girl, you are the mainstream. You are the deep state.

Not that Google was ever good, but this cartoon is a good summary of now.
