This is psychopathic.

I've been firmly anti-blocking up until now, but I gotta say that positive engagement with this one is a sure sign that I have no reason to allow any intercourse between our accounts whatsoever. "I'm glad you lost a pregnancy, Whitey" yeah, that's not proving my point at all, you fucking psycho.

Like, I feel so bad for saying that a lot of lefty trans people are dicks on here and that a selection of trans and non trans people with patreon accounts are whores. That is so much worse than this.

My fault for the moment of vulnerability when I'm actively on the thugs' shitlist, but wooooooow.

I think anyone and everyone who’s worked at a think tank has read this Onion article more times than they can count in the years since it was published, and each time has, as the kids say, felt seen. theonion.com/boy-i-really-t…

The wildest thing about the tapper book is that it alleged a big cover up, everyone got all excited and then when it didn't deliver, they just pretended like it did and when you raised the fact that there was no meat in the book they would just fall back on calling you a Biden dead ender.

Trump and Hegseth halted funding for research to get blood to wounded U.S. Marines and U.S. Navy sailors: "When someone is wounded and survival depends on the availability of blood, this software would have made that survival more likely. Now it will not." www.nytimes.com/2026/04/02/s...

“They were going to come. It was going to be a big thing. We were going to go to the beach right after. All those plans had to go out the window because they said ICE would be here."

Yes, let’s destroy San Francisco’s top tourist attraction and replace it with an expensive, obsolete prison.

America not being a signatory to a number of treaties does not mean that international law does not exist. The US is conducting clear war crimes, and boasting about it. They should be treated as a pariah state. They definitely shouldn't be getting a Royal visit.

Insane to post this while there’s an active CSAR mission going on.

Gemma 4 E4B (4-bit) completed a full repo audit by executing Bash code and tool calls locally. Runs on just 6GB RAM.

Yes, capitalism was a advancement over feudalism.

It is not up to Trump whether we have midterm elections. Stop granting him invincible power.

Further incentivizing politicization of our military. This should be penalized, not rewarded.

Oh, so now it’s a war. Tomorrow it will be an excursion again.

true for 2008 for sure, not as much for 2012 the thing with trump is that he got a lot of folks to show up for him and him only across three different elections (and, honestly, to vote against him, though that worked better in 2020)

in my lifetime I can think of one (1) politician whose victories relied on consistently getting nonvoters to show up for him rather than simply doing better among reliable voters his name is donald trump

This bird looks like it's going to say, "Please, detective, you have to understand I have no idea who killed my husband and I'm terribly sick about it"

Day 1500 of my 3 day war. It's worth remembering that I invaded to keep NATO away from Russia and to stop Ukraine getting long range weapons. I remain a master strategist.

A US service member is missing and this is the first we've heard from the president. Need I say more

Worth noting that Hegseth already established his foreign policy doctrine includes killing shipwrecked survivors and "no quarter", and this will inform an adversary's rules of engagement when confronting US forces during a war. His bloodlust and fealty to Trump have endangered our military.

If NYC actually does free daycare and builds enough housing to get prices to ~150% Chicago prices and converts the subway to OPTO so they can run twice the trains on the same budget and puts their trash in dumpsters, they might actually become a great city to live in.

i often think that part of the reason people get wrapped around the axle when it comes to DOD spending and "audits" is that most people — including many people in the DOD! — don't really comprehend just how large the DOD is, and how many different things it does.

The president's first post since an F-16 was shot down over Iran with one American still missing.

People are dunking on the headline but the article is pretty clearly tongue-in-cheek: the reporter interviewed people at different Waffle Houses asking if they had observed teleportation www.nytimes.com/2026/04/03/u...

Enjoy your Easter travel!

I grew up very sheltered as a Catholic and was really surprised as an adolescent to learn there were these people who thought we were a huge threat to America and Jesus and I was like COOOOOLLLL

>Green party >Look inside >Oil and gas subsidies You can take the country out of Europe but you can’t take the Europe out of a country!

"All of us should pay for this via price rises in downstream industries"

"we are plausibly facing an energy shortage, therefore the richest among us, who can afford to transition/insulate/electrify should not feel the price signal. We will just hit shortages"

Begging people to just give poor people money rather than fuck with markets

I’ve read this story several times now and I can’t fathom how one would fuck up comms this badly unless the thing is in fact exactly what it looks like

Quick reminder that the Monte Hall problem is a lot easier to understand if you think of a variation with 100 doors instead of 3. Here you're presented with 100 doors, you choose 1, and the host opens 98 others. Should you switch?

In those scenarios we absolutely need ‘ordinary people to use less’ which means ordinary people have to reduce their consumption one way or another.

I am begging people to think for one minute about what this means if we get a real downside scenario where supplies stay tight for months or years. We would bankrupt the country while also making sure domestic users could outbid all industrial users and shut down so they could be unemployed too.

This is such incredible abject nonsense. If the straight stays closed ordinary people will have to use less oil and gas. Price is the fairest rationing mechanism that incentivises people who can to switch and to reduce consumption.

racist bullshit regime pushes more racist bullshit

The President personally selecting the war crimes.

lmao.

the war has developed not necessarily to an economic advantage

Will only intensify speculation that Alito will retire this summer, so expect to see the circuit court judges who think they're in the running step up their audience-of-one opinion writing.

/2 Like, the routine where Michael Che makes Colin Jost read racist jokes on the air works because the message is that it’s humiliating Jost because they’re awful and he doesn’t think that. If Michael Che gave, say, Ted Nugent racist jokes to read on the air, that would just be horrible.

See, this is MEANT to be tongue in cheek, with the treating it seriously being ironic. But the New York Times can’t pull it off because of what they’ve become. The mock-seriousness is too close to how they routinely are. /1 www.nytimes.com/2026/04/03/u...

Oh dear. Oh my.

This is one of the subconscious reasons why I begin my lecture on NATO in my intro to IR classes by asking students where the (North) Atlantic Ocean is.

the thing that "the military hasn't passed an audit" elides is that the DOD is of such size, scale and complexity that a single DOD audit isn't possible, or even desirable; there are significant oversight and spending controls within each component part

If pressed he'd probably insist he meant it rhetorically, in the colloquial sense. But he's definitely aware of its meaning as a legal and historical term, and he thinks it's cool and a good thing to do.

I would chalk it up to that for most administration morons, but Hegseth very specifically waged a whole successful campaign to get Trump to pardon people who'd killed prisoners. That's why he has the job now. He's a war crimes connoisseur. He knows exactly what "no quarter" means.
