You may laugh, but the Macbeths are a much better role model for a marriage than Romeo and Juliet. They discuss their problems (killing the king of Scotland), share their hobbies (killing the king of Scotland), and resolve their conflicts (by killing the king of Scotland).

This is antivax logic, thinking because something doesn't stop the bad thing, it's therefore worthless. No one said that body cameras would stop this. It would allow agents to be held accountable who committed crimes. Without this footage, no jury would convict them. This is what voters chose.

On Thanksgiving, the immigrant children held at the Dilley detention center gathered in the gym for what they thought was a holiday feast. The kids salivated over a spread of turkey, sandwiches, pastries and pies, a family told me. But the food wasn’t for detainees — it was for the staff.

Guillotines are the moderate solution

also extremely not surpised that AOC is mostly reiterating bidenist vibes because bidenism was actually not really about joe biden and more about the general consensus of the contemporary democratic coalition and Biden himself, particularly on FP, was kinda separate from his own admin's posture

My moderate position is that Ukrainians need penal battalions of these guys to man machine gun positions to free up manuever forces for the Unification Counterattacks of 2029

Leftists in complete shambles as wine mom firebombs Walmart before kneeling and mumbling Ruthkanda forever.

Virgin German citizen: we didn’t know the camps were there Chad American NIMBYs: oh yeah we tried to set the camp on fire early on to keep taxes down

Mobilize the NIMBYs of war

Hilarious that the Hegseth types are watching the Russians do human wave attacks because every Russian with combined arms knowledge is dead in Eastern Ukraine because their institutional knowledge resided in now corpses while the US's resides in academia and were like let's be more like Russia

Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez. Vanguard of the Republic.

AOC: "I think we have to recognize that we are in a new day and in a new time. But that does not mean that the majority of Americans are ready to walk away from a rules-based order, and that we're ready to walk away from our commitment to democracy."

"... to act out these paradoxes, whether it is kidnapping a foreign head of state, whether it is threatening our allies to colonize Greenland, whether it is looking the other way in a genocide. Hypocrisies are vulnerabilities, and they threaten democracies globally."

FDRbros…we’re so back

Imagine centering the dude with the Nazi tat who has never won an election, while ignoring Michelle Wu, the only mayor of Boston in history to run for re-election unopposed. Kind of a feckless and inept editorial choice.

probably just cash register sounds given their wealth per capita

Meanwhile, people around the world who used to depend upon USAID and its important programs die. Obscene.

Here are the Top 5 Dogs of the week!

It's really a giant mystery (it's not) why Americans largely turned away from organized Christianity as powerful people who are openly Christian are also mass murderers

There are ~90 million people alive today because of USAID. Russ Vought illegally shut it down and now is spending the money on himself. These are deeply evil people. www.reuters.com/world/us/whi...

i think it is a massive fucking problem that the first best use for LLMs was to cheat in school

there's fierce competition, but this is one of the most stomach-turning things I've read in some time

"One can read the political history of the past decade as an overwrought conspiracy to undermine one of the core values of liberalism: pluralism." www.liberalcurrents.com/future-is-af...

This ad should concern Susan Collins.

"AOC is liberal" is actually complete victory for reclaiming the term "liberal" from the last 30 years of Clintonite politics and followers-on we're gonna make FDR look moderate with our liberalism

the median voter

I'm of the opinion that the breakdown in American politics is at the elite level not the mass level. Low info voters behaved as they always behave. It was elected officials, business leaders, etc. that could have maintained the guardrails but did not. www.gelliottmorris.com/p/trump-lost...

Classic Gen Z behavior

When you dig deeper around mysteriously successful figures you generally find that rather than being incomprehensibly brilliant masters of the universe, they actually just lied a bunch and committed a bunch of crimes that no one wanted to look too hard at

You see, they're sending them to a camp in TX, where abortion is illegal, because "pro-life." "Some were as young as 13, and at least half of those taken in so far became pregnant as a result of rape... Their pregnancies are considered high risk by definition, particularly for the youngest girls."

IOC is such a corrupt organization of scumbaggery

the modern young conservative movement is just made up of lonely, sad, little freaks claiming to be masculine while dreaming of the gayest shit ever yeah man, it's extremely hetero to live in a society of just dudes

I see no reason not to look at the online gambling and prediction market craze as a new opioids crisis. It will wreak havoc on lower-income Americans and leave a trail of destruction and despair in its wake. The companies are just Purdue Pharma 2.0 www.liberalcurrents.com/from-pill-mi...

This is good. We don't talk enough about the corrosiveness of gambling as a vice. My moderate postition of gambling is that it should not be legal outside of a casino (this includes lottery tickets, scratch offs, etc.) and should certainly not be possible on cell phones.

Some children in Dilley were so distraught they cut themselves or talked about suicide, parents told ProPublica. They said kids lost their appetites after finding worms and mold on their food, had trouble sleeping, and were constantly sick.

“In close quarters”

call me old fashioned but I think it is Bad when an active duty officer who works in the pentagon tweets like a fucking school shooter

Let's ask Scott Adams if ivermectin cures cancer. Hang on. One sec. He's not picking up.

Prepping my genocide course and it's really sad to reflect on the fact that the United States Army was the first in the world to codify the law of war and prohibit crimes against civilians. It formed the basis for the later Hague and Geneva Conventions. And it was drafted by a Jewish immigrant.

"If the government may simply seize *someone* without due process, there is no check on its ability to seize *anyone*." Perhaps the most fundamental check against tyranny. And it is gravely threatened.

Gov. Wes Moore (D-MD) says he was uninvited from a bipartisan White House dinner for governors "As the nation’s only Black governor, I can’t ignore that being singled out for exclusion from this bipartisan tradition carries an added weight — whether that was the intent or not"
