Albert Podrasky, Chief Justice Roberts’ grandfather, born in the U.S. to parents who were not citizens, was an American citizen. Why not the U.S.-born child today of a migrant from Africa? Or El Salvador? Or Honduras?

was just reminded that tomorrow is april fool’s day and especially this year can we just… not, please

It’s amazing what a man with the willingness to pick up the phone, call a department, and ask “how can we help?” can do for a literal megacity.

Star Trek figured this out thirty years ago. It's not hard. Even an old, drunk Klingon got it.

literal sewer socialism let's fucking go

personally I think "Federal Judge Approves Trump Effort to Obtain List of Jews From Penn" is a bad thing to read in the newspaper www.nytimes.com/2026/03/31/u...

oh, so Friday's jobs numbers are gonna be BAD bad

literally the next chapter of Matthew -- Matthew 6:1 (NIV): "Be careful not to practice your righteousness in front of others to be seen by them. If you do, you will have no reward from your Father in heaven".

This might be the most unhinged thing he’s ever tweeted, and that’s saying something. He’s flailing. Has no idea how to get out of this war cleanly.

Last week I commented on a woman’s post about a man insulting her on a date and I was shocked to see negging still alive in this 2026th year of our lord, but here it is on an international stage.

All they have is negging and pickup artist techniques. Diplomacy by incel forum.

I packed onions at the Oregon Food Bank today. 1 in 5 Oregonians get support from a food bank now. I am glad these orgs are working to get food to those who need it but it’s frustrating to see such a failure of government to take care of its people. 20% of the population shouldn’t be food insecure.

"Stop overreacting, they're never going to do that."

10 years later. Different platform. Same bs.

Gerald Ford vetoed naming a post office after himself.

find yourself someone who loves you as much as Ben Garrison loves to draw AOC pouring you an ehrlenmeyer flask full of sizzling potion with an eyeball floating in it labeled "SOCIALISM"

every single person actively involved in the college republicans in 2026 is the worst person you’ve ever met basically no exceptions

Ah, so Andy Weir is like... *dumb* dumb gizmodo.com/andy-weir-st...

This is why after "punish the villains" we are doing "toddler new deal." National policies like treat people the way you want to be treated, clean up after yourself, share your toys

I think this is a faultline that runs throughout the administration: They have no theory of mind, and are completely baffled by any motivation more complicated than immediate material gain.

Mark Zuckerberg, an outspoken critic of "man-made climate change", shows off his new $300 million, 287-foot mega yacht, powered by four gigantic diesel engines. What's that word oh yea hypocrite that fits .

Mocked by birds. 😜

white men bitching about ‘karens’ are not fooling anyone

Same.

Brendan Glesson is 71. Colin Farrell, newly sober, on first meeting Gleeson: ‘He said ‘willya have a drink?’ & opened his hotel fridge ‘I’ve still or sparkling’. In that moment, I fell in love with him as he had gone out & bought them. I thought ‘that’s a fella who’ll look after you’

It's true, but I feel like it's the difference between reading a massive block of text and a text divided into paragraphs and with line breaks X)

The bluesky address is @attie.ai and it really needs to be in the top five accounts blocked on this platform. This is honestly some of the most tonedeaf shit I’ve seen from BS and thats saying something

try and imagine a bigger W as an academic

The NYT quotes a young conservative operative without identifying him as such. On the left, the NYT quotes him wondering why anyone would think Trump is different from any other president. And then on the right, is that kid's Substack insisting that Trump is different from any other president.

Lovely that we’ve reached the stage of American conservatism where they are positively cheering the black helicopters that are spying on and intimidating American citizens exercising their rights, but only if the black helicopters are targeting “the wrong type of citizen.”

LMAO! Fox News is spinning Trump's high gas prices by touting the "average daily price per barrel of oil" throughout presidencies, as though the fact prices were low a year ago will be reassuring to people today

The thing about dementia? A total lack of filter will keep manifesting.

The goodwill tour.

It's my answer every time for this: National identity is, with some exceptions, more modern than the steam engine.

This is what they are doing to NORWEGIANS, y’all — the very immigrants Trump claims to want more of. Imagine what they are doing to everyone else.

SESAME STREET EXEC 1: kids love bright colours, so how about a bunch of humanoid puppets in red, green, blue, orange, yellow SESAME STREET EXEC 2: ooh what if the yellow one had a head like a banana? SESAME STREET EXEC 1: I love it, yes. banana head DIVERSITY HIRE GOTH: there should be a vampire

"I'm a cop, I don't understand the law" is literally one of the most on-brand things I have ever heard in my life

ai feature implementation strategy is essentially “how annoying can we make the ui” so people accidently hit ai features so these companies can brag about how “highly used” ai features are internally

imagine the Pope personally calling you a fake bitch who's going to hell lol

We have a bird feeder outside our window for the kitties and the kids, and in addition to my regular tufted titmouse visitors, we now have a white breasted nuthatch and who the fuck is naming these birds

The fact that people in my mentions are utterly confused about the fundamental difference between a press release from the NYT Communications department and a reported story by an NYT reporter really underscores how genuinely appalling the behavior of NYT was here.

If the estimates were right, there were about 9 million people at No Kings rallies today. That would mean this protest was THIRTY TIMES AS LARGE AS THE TEA PARTY PROTEST which we were told, over and over again, was a massively important sign that US politics had shifted dramatically to the right

Build longer tables, not higher fences.

Again, the first Tea Party rallies in April 2009 -- heavily promoted in advance by Fox News -- only had about 300,000 attendees across 750 cities, but the media treated it like the Second American Revolution. There will be multiple *individual* No Kings rallies today that have more people at them.

Discworld QOTD, from Feet of Clay

This second line is just good general life advice.
