The Bears are somehow 8-3 with a negative point differential for the year. #NFL

pretty wild that the main benefactor of our vice president is basically one of those masked squid game weirdos

John Fetterman is the Ben Simmons of politics

they're calling it the kettle corn-ification of america, and no one understands what the fuck they're talking about

New "I'm With Her" just dropped:

you call it "playing donkey kong;" i call it "slaving away in the donk mines." we are not the same

Well, after an exciting conclusion to the game we were all focused on this evening, I'm sure we all have some interesting opinions. So what do we think: are the Sixers for real?

Was just forced to endure 90+ minutes of Fox News waiting for my car at the shop, and maybe it's because my expectations of the usual suspects on that channel are so low, but the person who I saw who was most infuriating was Fetterman. Just a complete waste of a Senator.

it's impacting more and more americans every year, and the effects are devastating. doctors are calling it weirdboob

a version of sex where you're not allowed to use your arms called sexccer is this anything

Donald's been talking a lot about heaven, and is also playing for a Nobel Peace Prize. The latter is mostly Obama jealousy, but I'm beginning to think he thinks it'll help with the former too; that God's waiting for some Swedes to give Him the thumbs up before letting him through the pearly gates.

Think about how gross the average aftermath of a six year old eating is and then look me in the eye and say that elementary school lunch workers/custodians, who are cleaning up after dozens if not hundreds of kids, don't deserve to be some of the highest paid people in our society. Fucking heroes.

While I'm on a sportsball kick, I really enjoyed Arsenal's win over Newcastle. "Same old ______, always cheating" is such a stupid, small-club-mentality chant, and every fan base who uses it deserves to have their hearts ripped out with late game losses like what happened to the Toons today.

Very excited for tonight's game between America's Team, Ideal Version (Green Bay, small town team owned by its community) and America's Team, Actual Version (Dallas, a Texas team owned by an incompetent senile billionaire and run by said senile billionaire alongside his sycophants and failsons).

marmaduke comic strip arc where he has to hunt down and confront his evil twin brother harmaduke is this anything

More and more I've come to believe this: to be a conservative is to believe that the problems of other people are all of their own making, and something they or charitable individuals need to address; but that your problems are all someone else's fault and both require and merit state intervention.

I've thought about it a lot today, and I think that I've landed on "Huey Freeman eulogizes Stinkmeaner" as my thoughts on Charlie Kirk: "He was a horrible human being, and the world was better off with him dead. But he was our brother."

Our Army went from 12-2 and dominating the AAC under Biden to losing to Tarleton State under Donald. A nation and a military in decline; truly a sad state of affairs.

I keep ruminating on the uphill battle anyone actually on the left has in order to get anything accomplished. Like, the fact that you're coming for some of the money of the wealthy is one thing, but at a fundamental level, progressivism is calling for collective action for the benefit of all. 1/

One thing that gets me about the anti-trans movement is just *how* anti-science it is. Even if you think being trans is a mental illness or a delusion, that has no bearing on what scientists agree is the best course of treatment: gender affirming care. Those two ideas can coexist. 1/

A thought I'm struck by as it becomes increasingly apparent that Donald is making decisions solely on who's nicest to him (with the nicest thing, of course, being bribery): I think an overlooked aspect of his ability to maintain his base is that he fulfills a power fantasy for them. 1/

There is something of an irony for QAnons and other right wing folks that they were so worried about pedophiles in the highest levels of government, that they put a pedophile in the highest government office. It could be hilarious, were the underlying subject matter not so awful.

Tag yourself. I'm this smiling idiot:

Very "excited" (sarcastic) for right wing and right leaning media to go from painting Frey as an ineffectual mayor incapable of stopping violent immigrants from taking over Minneapolis, to instead being the last defender of democracy now that his main opponent is a Muslim with Somali heritage.

Only tangentially related, but it's funny to me how I've gone from just loving Redwall, to thinking its villains are unrealistic in how regularly they backstab and undermine each other, to realizing no, the villains of our world generally are catty bitches who all hate each other. Bravo, Mr. Jacques

Lots of other stuff to focus on, but I need to get an idea/thread out of my head about the whole "run the government as a business" thing, and this misguided idea that the government's main goal should be efficiency. Because I think it's one of the biggest shared delusions plaguing our society. 1/

I've found I'm a lot more comfortable buying and wearing trucker hats nowadays, and I think a small but nonzero factor in that is that all of the people with the worst beliefs have moved on to wearing a different type of hat, one that's usually red with white lettering and is made in China.

Hard not to draw a line between comments like this and the events that happened last night: bringmethenews.com/minnesota-ne...

Proposal to make a terrible idea much better: take Elon's "five things you did this week" structure, but make it that you record/document five things this regime has done on a weekly basis and send the list, without further comment, to any and all Donald supporters you still communicate with.

"Some of y'all cant handle 2 high agency males going at it and it really shows"

Imagine this: we all shit in one big pile. We all go to the same place and shit on the pile. Eventually the pile gets big enough you gotta climb it on all fours to shit on it. There is nothing preventing us from doing this

As a person who grew up reading and loving the "Redwall" series, it pleases me to no end that Brian Jacques absolutely nailed it with the "evil undoes itself through infighting" trope in those books. Though today's Elon-Donald row demonstrates how stupidity is often at the core moreso than cunning.

My contribution to the "the Pope has probably done/experienced some normal American stuff" discourse is that as a Villanova grad, the Pope almost certainly has some pretty strong opinions about Donte DiVincenzo.

Vegas is going to lose this series because the fans have been derelict in their duty to this point. Evander Kane should be getting booed every time he touches the puck. We either commit to the bit of hating the 2019 Sharks forever, or we admit that we aren't a real fan base.

I'd love to be pumped about Ovechkin overtaking Gretzky given the latter is it here watching games with Kash Patel, but I'm fairly certain that Ovie's politics are probably as bad, if not worse.

Sometimes I think that it might eventually become necessary to leave the US if things get bad enough. Then I misremember the words of a wise man: Michael Bolton from Office Space. "Why should I have to leave; they're the ones who suck."

www.independent.co.uk/news/world/a... Donald says we're going back into the Commonwealth. You all know what this means: after 250 years, George III is vindicated.

michaeltar the last fassbender is this anything

Why go back to this far if doing so is going to make it hard to tell the difference between this year and other post-"eradication" years? Why not project this year's final total? People will see this graph and think "that little blip's what everyone's worried about? Typical MSM scaremongering."

Weird how Donald feels like both Mexico and Canada deserved tariffs, but only the latter should be made a pay of the US. I'm sure there must be some difference between the two, but I can't qwhite think of what it might be. 🤔

Proposal: given that they don't seem to have interest in administering anything, I think we stop calling it the Trump administration and switch to calling it a regime instead.

Michelle Trachtenberg, and now Gene Hackman? They're coming for our actors with an"ack" doing in their name (our ack-tors, if you will). I demand 24-hour protection details for Hugh Jackman and Scott Bakula.

Final wave of an early morning skeetstorm: I think so many of our divides get solved if more white folk like me can just learn to say "this isn't for me, and that's fine" about popular media. I don't ever listen to Kendrick, and didn't recognize a single song last night. But I still thought it 1/

Broke (right): Kendrick used American imagery to appeal to 47's love of patriotism Woke (left): by representing Uncle Sam and the flag using Black people, K-Dot is boldly imagining a new proud Black American identity Bespoke (hater): Kendrick used classic American imagery because Drake is Canadian

images.app.goo.gl/GWHfGvzftZwq... I think most people paying attention can tell that what this anymore is doing is bad, but I haven't seen this angle talked about. This image is one of the most famous of the Nazi regime: the book burnings, including burning all the research done at the Institute 1/

One of the most infuriating things about this whole situation is that the desperation this administration will create with its policies will hit poor marginalized groups hardest, and any extralegal measures they employ to meet basic needs will be used as justification for further marginalization.

"Support our troops" includes the ones that end up doing terrorisms. I'm sorry, I don't make the rules.
