I could have heckled him by yelling "FENTANYL!!" and half the room would have needed emergency services.

THEY CLOSED PUBLIC POOLS RATHER THAN SWIM WITH BLACK PEOPLE YOU ARE DEALING WITH THE SAME GROUP OF PEOPLE AS THE FOLKS WHO DID THIS PLEASE WAKE THE FUCK UP

The greatest regret of Hegseth's life is that he wasn't at My Lai.

I know nothing about military culture and DOD policy... were the generals expected to applaud? It kind of seems like the guy who immediately began shouting orders didn't think there would be any commotion.

Good to see that the regime can use volkish nationalism to become a party in millions of medical bankruptcies

If Trump were literate he'd sue Putnam for publishing a celebration of Charlie Kirk's death three years before he was born. #vonnegut #hocuspocus

Unsolicited food rec: La Palma in Detroit is some of the best food I’ve ever had in my life

Hey peeps, many library cards will give you free access to Kanopy! Here are some horror movies they have in their library: The Vourdalak, A Girl Walks Home Alone at Night, Train to Busan, Exhuma, Oddity, Let the Right One In, The Wicker Man, Birth/Rebirth, Titane, Starve Acre, Ganja & Hess.

“Why are you blaming democrats for the actions of republicans” Republicans are the fire, there’s nothing to be gained in trying to reason with them. I am blaming the firefighters who are scared of getting wet.

I am not a learned man, but want Jesus a toddler? Like, I clearly don't know Christianity very well, but then again neither (probably) dors the person who thinks Jesus' could have had His mantle of messiah stripped from him because his parents broke the law before he was toilet trained.

This is literally written in the same arms as this viral Facebook posts that would go around about how, "I do not consent to have Facebook or any other online entity have ownership of my photos"

And back to just clearly never having had an interaction that wasn't dominated by his money.

Lays out his desires while acknowledging reality... certainly not handing out to him or wanting but this is honestly the closest he's ever sounded like a real human who has experienced the word 'no' before.

It's very true that we don't know the attacker's motives (it's entirely possible their motive was incoherent, at best) but it's been interesting watching the Right say for at least 40 years, "you need guns to keep the government in check" and then spend the last the weeks saying, "not like that".

Holy shit, it wasn't even through a foundation or grant or anything.

They know what they're doing even they pull these stunts. They know what happens.

The remnants of the 2010s A.V. Club have shared the space of newsletters too long without collaborating, so I invited @kphipps3000.bsky.social and @scotttobias.bsky.social from The Reveal to chat the blurred lines of "TV Movies" in the streaming age. Crossover episode!

I've said it before and I'll say it again: one of the perks the Trump administration offers to its supporters is the promise of canonization for even the most reprehensible of white men

I'm so mad Kirk of all people was the particular spark that lit the powder keg. Humiliating for the country.

The message the administration is communicating is the offer of a new wage for whiteness: even the worst white man will be cannonized.

I don't think it's too political to say, "do at least one thing in your life that makes it hard to be unchairitable about your passing".

Not to distract, but $7 million doesn't seem like nearly enough for this to be even close to ready

The underlying assumption of pieces like this is that your values are not more important than your family but your uncles' values are. If your uncle wants to be in your life, he should act accordingly

National defense is now subordinate to the federal government commandering local elections

Legitimately it would have been cheaper and less controversial to activate VISTA

Tell me again about how leftists are hell-bent for nationalization of private industry

They're going to ban Idiocracy one day. Prepare now.

Holy Christ

Araro Ariraro is crowdfunding now; support the project here: www.omsakthifilms.com/araro-arirar... 2/2

Yes, but not nearly enough

The "how do we provide alternatives to the manosphere" question feels like an impossible conversation to have in good faith on here, because nobody's actually talking about the same thing in the same way and everyone's getting mad because of it

Not to get all rtrvn on this, but it used to be that it was just kind of understood that you would be a member of a social club or lodge. It was just kind of expected that you would be out and about a little bit

So the pledge was really just a survey's finding? Oh. www.politico.eu/article/eus-...

this man looks exactly like you expect a man selling marketing services to ambulance chasers would look

Trump is like please hate these Black people. don’t worry about the Epstein files. you all hate Black people, remember?

You know they're feeling some heat when the press release uses a normal amount of adjectives and at least nods to the concept of civility

Not really a kid's movie, but the Neil Simon scripted Lost In Yonkers was marketed as a family-friendly comedy... its miserablust depiction of adult life literally inculcated a fear of aging in my 11 year old brain that still persists.

If you ever needed proof that modern American conservatism is built upon the forceful insistence of white male supremacy, just read the Tweets that upset them.

Christ wept, this is embarrassing. Normal people get worried when their chief executive starts talking about being God's special favorite.

The Right's entire justification for their hate campaign against trans people is 1) fairness in sports and 2) straight men can pretend to be Trans and assault women in public restrooms. Maybe if ICE agents were competing in softball or something they'd finally get outraged.

It'll be... interesting... watching the Texas Senate as a whole get gulag'd after Trump melts down, deports Elon, and has Stephen Miller fix history.

LL Cool J said that he will not perform at Wawa Welcome America in Philadelphia on July 4th because of union strike “There is absolutely no way I can perform across a picket line”

I don't want to say i called it, but this is probably the closest I'll ever get

You have to assume there are at least a few yes votes who are taking a lot of pleasure in watching Johnson squirm, and might just get tempted to twist the screw further

Growing up, I didn’t find the Emperor’s New Clothes story very believable but now as an adult I live that shit every single day in this country and it fucking sucks.

Very vindicated, if you look at that and can't see an obvious Nazi parallel then you don't have the kind of imagination democrat requires

I can't think of a single fantasy or science-fiction plot where the evil empire ever did shit like *this*

This fundamentally confuses me about the narrative off Republicans being the party the "average-man" most easily identifies with. Like 10 out of 10 suburban thumb-heads would rather have a decent, friendly man who works well with others as a neighbor than an asshole who sits in the same church pew
