It's not a good sign for your democracy when the attorney general is "not committing to doing anything in writing."

Crucifictorious forever! @atxfestival.bsky.social

Why does he look like he's spiraling out? It's a question about rocks.

A) the Christians voting for Paxton don't think of him as morally repugnant, so that's one problem. B) If morally repugnant men seeking power isn't a threat to you then that's a second problem

Oh, I just can't wait until we're scraping the bottom of this trend's barrel.

Imagine being Don Jr and having to process what your dad is, and is not, celebrating this weekend.

There's literally going to be a book written about everything that led up to this moment

Honestly, I can't decide if I think these moments where he acts like world leaders are all just playing games are him at his most or least lucid. Either way, they're him at his least narcissistic.

It doesn't matter. Libs staying on X might, at best, have delayed the drift. But while the culture requires liberals to meet conservatives where they are (physically, digitally, and ideologically) w/o any expectation of the same from conservatives, everything will tilt further and further rightward

If you thought elaborately faking being good at videogames to impress a bunch of manchildren was embarrassing, consider elaborately faking that your mother loves you.

I truly feel like the biggest difference between the states, regarding weed, is not legal rec sales or not, but whether edibles are capped at 5mg or 200mg.

The Nicolas Cage Wicker Man

This isn't a prompt so much as it's a bad guitar solo. It's meant only to impress other geeks with how long and complicated it is. In a weird way it's a dominance display. He is peacocking for the most boring collection of men ever assembled.

Leave all of these people alone in a room with Isaac Chotiner

Ben Sasse is one of those guys who looks like his opinions.

Silverio Villegas González Yahir David Martinez Keith Porter Renee Nicole Good Alex Pretti

what exactly is the challenge, he’s at 30% approval and 7 months away from being completely neutered, tell him to fuck off and reap good will

I hate to say it but the halfway point between the Muppets and this regime is Meet The Feebles

He's an amazingly weak person

none of the cutesy ways people try to get out of reading their children bedtime stories actually qualify as the reading of a bedtime story nor do they achieve the individual or societal goals of the reading of said. sorry, there's no workaround. crack open make way for ducklings big guy

I'm sorry, but obviously this can't be real, right? It's like a sketch whose premise is, "each bro thinks he's the alpha"

Oh look it's today's @bullseye.maximumfun.org guest Juvenile telling you to back that ass up to maximumfun.org/join and support the only mfing NPR show that would interview Juvenile for an hour

Ogles entire life is about making sure everyone knows he's too powerful to shove into a locker anymore.

Not the point, and surely unintentional, but if your whole thing is being a tough-guy manly man then you can't do duck lips. I'm sorry, you just can't.

Charles Schultz' death was kept quiet for days so that his publishers could get a press bump by announcing his death on the day the very last Peanuts strip ran in papers.

It's coming. The British didn't begin responding to WWI, culturally, until Journey's End premiered in 1928* *assuming the one book I read, about Journey's End director James Whale, led me to the correct understanding.

A lot of leftists are going to be mad at me, but I do think there's something to the idea that the big delineation isn't between the proles and the capitalists, but rather between the adults and the hedonists who rationalize their excesses.

AI chat bot called Screwtape

Okay, sure. But a little bit that's like asking doctors and umpires to talk like they're regular joes. Using "simple English" is inclusive, but sometimes that inclusiveness is going to compete against the values of clarity and opennes, which often require technical language to achieve.

Holy SHIT someone found the test pressing of Robert Johnson's Cross Road Blues and it is clear as a PIN www.openculture.com/2026/04/reco...

Imagine having to de-worm your Pikachu

The number of smug assholes over the years who've lectured to me about how the First Amendment protects *the *church* from *the government" sure seen like bad winners right now.

A noticable uptick in the production and sales of outdoor grown marihuana.

Look, maybe they would be worried if the test was 'Person. Woman. Man. Jesus. Camera. Doctor. TV."

I'm sure there's an answer and I'm equally certain that that answer is going to upset me but, why are there extra spaces around punctuation marks in the text of every single inauthentic, designed-to-go-viral post ?

I want to thank The Discourse for finally catching up to me.

I negotiated with a dispensary over unionization for 11 months

a criminal conviction isn’t required to say someone does not have the moral character to run for office and i don’t understand why this needs to be said over and over and over again.

ProPublica journalists walk off the job in first U.S. newsroom strike over AI On the picket line in New York, union leaders said they expect “more concentrated conflicts” over AI in the news industry. www.niemanlab.org/2026/04/prop...

Every image from Artemis makes the idea of war feel even more ridiculous

Why did no one tell me that Peanuts takes place in Derry, Maine??

Imagine how wormy a white Southern conservative would have to be support Sherman's March in order to politically protect Washington D.C. from it's worst impulses. Also imagine how disgusting Washington D.C, would have to be for this to occur.

Holy shit, they got us to pay for their wall

I don't know, but it kind of seems like in a healthy, functional society, armed adults who try to precipitate a fight with kids don't, when the dust finally settles, get to have a lot of options other than changing their name and moving to a new time zone.

Omelas tortures one child to produce what was damn near a utopia. America kills thousands of foreign children to create a world where finance bros can say "pussy" with impunity during Zoom meetings. We are so much worse than anyone dared predict.
