Tell me why I'm getting facebook ads for a fuckin tactical bassoon

We are at war so the white house is laser focused

41 years old, evacuated here legally, asylum case pending, kidnapped while driving his six children (one a US citizen) to school. Dead within 24 hours. Betrayed and murdered by the United States government. 42nd confirmed and reported death in ICE custody under Trump.

The VP’s name doesn’t match his birth certificate either though

Trump, Mitch McConnell Clash In Oval Office Over Where They Are https://theonion.com/trump-mitch-mcconnell-clash-in-oval-office-over-where-they-are/

Whatever happened with this? Just…not gonna do it, and that’s that?

The baffling part to me is that they don’t just buy themselves the correct size. Is it that they resent being in a position of spending their own money on dumb expensive stuff they hate just to fulfill weird workplace expectations? Is this a thing men don’t deal with?

MTG’s seat is going to a runoff

Every day of life under Trump is waking up to a headline like, “Wyoming is missing”

BREAKING: Donald Trump just betrayed every fan who’s been exploited by Ticketmaster. This fine is less than 1% of Live Nation’s revenue last year AND lets them continue to rip off fans with a 15% “Ticketmaster Tax." It's wrong. We need to break up Ticketmaster and Live Nation.

This should, with no sarcasm or irony whatsoever, be the highlight of every Democrat's campaign starting today. Trump just effectively gave the corporate version of a pardon to the most hated company on the planet. Absolutely no one supports this.

New rule: every single picture of someone in a hat needs to have accompanying text that ends '... which explains the hat'.

One of the greatest bollard walks in history. #WorldBollardAssociation

The irony of the discoverer of austim being a woman getting erased outta history is not lost on me considering how hard it is for us to even get screened & people to this day don't think autistic women exist

According to a federal court, Trump's IRS illegally shared confidential taxpayer information with ICE 42,695 times.

Well, gas is expensive, and food is expensive, and we’re doing a war nobody wants, but at least there are no jobs

Torpedoing an unarmed ship, then leaving survivors to die, violates the Geneva Conventions, UNCLOS, the UN Charter, and the Rome Statute. All at once. The Trump regime claims no war exists, which makes this even more illegal. Calling it an 'operation' doesn't make it legal.

A war that isn't a war, documented with videos that may or may not be real, funded by elected leaders who are neither for nor against it, is the most dystopian thing that's happened in my lifetime

Oh look who’s upset about their preferred name being removed from a legal document

Lord I see what you’ve done for other people etc

NEW, from me: I talked to Aliya Rahman, who was dragged out of Tuesday's State of the Union + arrested for... standing up. Really. Rahman, who is autistic and has disabilities, was a guest of Rep. Ilhan Omar + was previously brutally detained by ICE in Minneapolis. www.huffpost.com/entry/aliya-...

Er, yes… He lives and works in Florida, occasionally flying to DC to get treatments at Walter Reed and sign proclamations with a Sharpie. And the First Lady lives in New York. We all know this, right?

ever wonder things like “are we doing all this repair work on Pennsylvania Ave just for it to get ripped up again when it becomes a nascar track in a couple months”

This has me crying in real life 😂😂😂 🦁

Federal science workforce in 2025: NSF down over 30% USGS, NOAA, and NIH down 20% DOE down 17% NIST down 15% NASA down 12% By comparison, the total federal civilian workforce was down approximately 10% last year. www.aip.org/fyi/federal-...

"The 45-second film, made around 1897, was the first appearance on film of what might be called a robot" HELL. YES.

And to be clear, everyone was very aware that this was illegal, but Trump officials and DOGE didi it anyway. Multiple IRS acting commissioners were removed when they raised concerns. Pretty much the entire C-suite resigned. From last year: donmoynihan.substack.com/p/this-tax-d...

the party that wants to require ID to vote abruptly invalidating a thousand people’s IDs overnight seems like a pretty giant flashing red light

I am guest lecturing at an undergrad public policy in Michigan next month, and using this piece as a great illustrator of "why do we have a govt in the first place"

Heads up to anyone who uses Amazon wish lists to allow others to send them stuff, they are changing how it works, privacy-wise, and it could reveal the address to senders via tracking updates.

As of tonight, licenses of trans people across Kansas are being invalidated en masse, enabling the overnight criminalization of an entire group of people for going about our lives. It’s often said you never know when you’re living through history, so let me assure you: that’s what’s happening now.

they essentially promised him needed accommodations (editing, no mic) for his condition, and not only didn't follow through, but instead did the opposite. BBC stole the dignity of so many people that night and turned what should have been a celebration for everyone into hurt, shame, and pain

I’m surprised they’re letting him out after sundown tbh

"The men implicated in the Epstein files reinforces that I spend half my life explaining to men that their simplified, optimistic view of other men doesn’t line up with the experience of women and girls trying to dodge sexual harassment, assault and abuse attempts." - Leslie Morgan Steiner

Now that backflips are legal, Adam and Ilia say synchro backflips need to be a thing, too! #MilanoCortina2026 ⛸️

Ever wondered how your grant got cancelled? No we know. Some college dropout asked ChatGPT "is it DEI/woke"? www.techdirt.com/202...

Yuma clapping and giggling while presenting us a sobbing Shun is absolutely sending me. I love them. #MilanoCortina2026 #figureskating

Imagine getting fired because Kristi "puppy killer" Noem forgot to take her blankie with her while switching planes. And then getting rehired in extremis because these dumbasses forgot you were their ride home.

Sorry, kid, the government cancelled research into a cure for your disease. The man who swims in sewage and snorts cocaine in public restrooms said it's bad for you. Besides, there's no money now that we're locking up your friend's parents and the guys who mowed our lawn.

Also: Maybe medicine *could* cure a person but some limited, required resource was redirected to warp drive development, new torpedoes, terraforming, making tea from a replicator taste better…

The F*cebook parent company is making glasses? Since 2023??

THEY ARE BUYING UP WAREHOUSES TO HOLD HUMAN BEINGS IN DETENTION INDEFINITELY. I feel crazy at how everyone is acting like this is normal. These are concentration camps being built right before our eyes. These buildings are not meant to house human beings. People will be caged like cattle and die.

This is what Hess said: “It brings up mixed emotions to represent the US right now. I think it’s a little hard. There’s obviously a lot going on that I’m not the biggest fan of. Just because I wear the flag doesn't mean I represent everything that's going on in the US.”
