someone described MAGA as worshiping Jesus as a sort of pagan god of violence and money and, yeah, that's it, that's exactly correct

Can’t get over that Pretti’s parents yesterday woke up thinking everything was normal and by the end of the day they were watching the federal government trash their dead son.

For those who are unaware of this particular fandom…that’s a helluva group to radicalize.

Why do the ai generated people always seem to be screaming? Probably not worth thinking about that. I'm sure it's fine.

I'm really sick of the "we have to be realistic" people who think that being realistic is bargaining with Kristi Noem and Donald Trump about how many people they get to shoot. They've already said their answer is anyone they want, unconstrained by the law.

I used to be like "does Sherlock really need a cocaine and violin room" but after 12 pages of Watson's inner dialogue I am looking on the situation more generously

Kare 11 local news just read, in full, this statement from Michael and Susan Pretti, the parents of Alex Pretti. "Please get the truth out about our son."

Alex Pretti took care of veterans as an ICU nurse. “He was a super nice, super helpful guy – looked after his patients," said @dimitridrekonja.bsky.social, who worked with Pretti both at the hospital and on scientific research. "I’m just stunned.” www.theguardian.com/us-news/2026...

He was just a regular person, and that’s fine! So am I. So are you. So are most people. We do not deserve to be murdered by the state and our reputations slandered by fucking idiots, and that’s something most of us can agree on

"they bit his finger off through the tactical gloves all these weird dipshits wear" lol, the moronic lies are the silver lining to all this.

well that’s gonna catch on

"Oh my gosh, it was so nice to see you! Have a lovely day, fuck ICE!" "Oh you too hon! Stay safe in that traffic, fuck ICE!' - two older Minnesota ladies, bidding farewell after the protest

I love that The Pitt is doing the real-time format thing because you can tune in and enjoy all the crazy hospital stuff AND have in the back of your mind that Jack Bauer’s daughter Elisha Cuthbert is just about to get menaced by a mountain lion.

As someone who has loved He-Man since I was a child in the 1980s, I'm withholding judgment until I actually see the movie (wise policy, I've found), but if you're upset by the fleeting shot of Adam having his pronouns on his nameplate, good, I'm glad you're upset, you're a loser.

Since we're talking about One Nation and their history of providing us with some truly exceptional candidates, this is from the PHON candidate for Macalister in the 2017 State election. One of the top ten twitter exchanges of all time.

Much is lost on JD Vance. Not least of which that his wife and children would be scooped up by this program in a hot minute if they didn’t have secret service protection right now.

I'm selling a second-hand, bat-free refrigerator. White plastic with metal handles, 4 shelves, does not contain bats, freezer compartment, vegetable crisper, no colony of bats living inside it. 250 or best offer. Stand back when opening

Area newspaper wants higher unemployment.

I’ve added the script for Wake Up Dead Man to my site. This is the final shooting script, so it has stuff that was cut and moved around, which I always think is more interesting to see than a conformed cleaned up version. Enjoy! www.rian-johnson.com/screenplays

This scene from A Fish Called Wanda is great. “IF IT WASN’T FOR US, YOU’D ALL BE SPEAKING GERMAN” - Otto, just before the 2min mark. www.youtube.com/watch?v=BGOl...

god fucking damnit

The word "cooked" in "1 cup cooked rice" is doing a lot of work in this 5-minute recipe's ingredient list.

One thing that everyone "knows" and is completely untrue is that women are better at multitasking. There have been multiple studies, some finding women are slightly better, some finding men are slightly better, but the one really consistent result is that everyone is very bad at multitasking.

Epilogue to the chicken sandwich stunt blog: I bought all these delicious dried chiles online, but am usually too busy for complicated recipes that use them. But I’ve realized today that I can just put them in mac and cheese and no one can stop me. So I ask you this: what’s the correct pairing

May I once again not-at-all-humbly reiterate what I said back in 2022: the centrist brain-worm that "energy security" comes from crawling from dependence on one fossil fuel supplier to another is absolute bullshit: Europe could and should have been reducing gas reliance faster for the past 3 years

I've been making bread wrong, apparently. Brb joining a pistol club.

ICE ended up returning the man, Saly, after realizing he’s a fucking US citizen with no criminal record, per his sister-in-law. These fucking animals.

This is such a cool illustration of how the Mercator map distorts the size of Greenland, which looks as big as the whole continent of Africa on that map but is actually the size of Mexico.

Indies have been doing “solo dev who’s not really solo” for a long time. There was a period of time where articles about auteurs were THE thing. We’re a core team of 11 right now. Roughly 100 people had hands on Bugsnax including us and we thanked about 200 others in the credits as well.

We already saw this with tariffs and predicted economic damage - grandpa levies bajillion percent tariffs on everything from China - economists et al al go "uhhhh holy fuck holy fuck" - naptime defeats tariffs otaku and most stuff reverts to 10% - bunch of people accuse economists of exaggerating

Oh no where is new zealand. Anyway.

This is a very smart framing.

Talked to a Somali man today who said his mosque last night was surrounded by neighbors ready to protect them against ICE if needed. Made me feel proud to live in this city.

Mom just said "smoked salmon" with the exact cadence of "6-7"

“ICE agents, get out now because historically, this ends with you hanging from a lamppost and your body paraded through the streets.” - the …we rate dogs guy

New favourite example of an eggcorn!

Minnesotans leaving out piles of free birdseed and ICE agents being crushed by falling rocks.

Oh, no Did they suffer any internal bleeding

this is Minnesotan for "I am mad enough to bite through rebar"

The Greens won't support the hate speech Bill in its current form. Good. Split the bill, pass the gun stuff, send the rest to Committee for proper scrutiny. www.theguardian.com/australia-ne...

People say Australians don't have a culture but I just heard a mum call her toddler a dickhead, so

Scott Adams will be remembered for his famous comic Dilbert by some, but most will remember him for this:
