The Kamala Harris book is so excruciating

Your continuing reminder that "Trump is going to cancel elections and declare a military dictatorship" was never a rational belief because amongst all other reasons it requires the military to not actually hate him

Okay but Republicans don't care because the point of all this isn't to actually punish anyone; it's to taint the very perception of prosecutions starting in 2029. They want to spend three years making federal investigations look vindictive and meaningless for when they all face them themselves.

A major sign of things getting dire in DC is when House members start breaking kayfabe like this. It's really, REALLY not fun to be a minority caucus member under a lame duck president. A cushy board seat or academic chairmanship sounds a LOT better and the race for the exits is obvious.

One of the very annoying performative-outrage traps that has already been set for the next Democratic administration is they will almost certainly attempt to "restore" the Press Corps to its pre-Trump roster and the current one's immediate tantrum about it will be one for the history books

This is called having an eating disorder

DOGE was not a failure. Its purpose was to use the completely fabricated claim of “efficiency” to irreparably annihilate vast amounts of federal government infrastructure, which it did instantly, violently, and in ways we will not see the full repair of in our lifetimes.

It's that time of year

I love hearing news the church that kicked me out for being lesbian is getting into controversies bc their pastors are either predators or committing adultery… Meanwhile I design both Heaven and Hell now for the number 1 show on Prime 🥰 I wish them a horrible life ✌🏻

It’s quite telling how the American right has basically achieved nearly everything in their wildest dreams through Trump’s presidencies but “the wheels are falling off” this unmitigated generational victory because he showed civility to an ideological opponent

Oh no I’m at the farmers market being overstimulated

Trump just gave a stronger endorsement of Zohran Mamdani than Chuck Schumer did.

This is of course one of the most glaring examples on how surrendering for a vote on ACA was peak Democrat stupidity. The vote will fail but Democrats generously provided Collins another out for that precious, precious Sensible Moderate™️ cred.

The Press Secretary’s job is literally to spin and promote the president’s agenda and Leavitt being a horrible person with a horrible boss is completely irrelevant to the objective fact that she is better at that job than Jean-Pierre was.

I’ve made this point before but the biggest luxury item consumed by the median American voter is racism. It’s the thing they most enjoy when they have nothing else to care about and whenever the economy goes to shit it’s the first thing they let go of to tighten their budgets.

This is astonishingly bad news for Trump in that there is basically no way prices are going to lower now because even if he eliminated all of his tariffs (he won’t), companies will simply… Keep prices where they are now. This is gas post-Iraq war all over again.

It is honestly horrifying that Netflix buying Warner Bros is at this point the least-worst option of all of the viable options currently on the table

Trump accidentally invaded Mexico. www.cbsnews.com/news/warning...

My new favorite kind of meme is "here are detailed instructions on how to turn off AI". 🔨

“I didn’t think the leopards would rip off MY face and use it as a mask”

Reactionary centrists generally act as if they are always the outsiders, always giving the Democratic party a path away from its failures. But in fact we do have examples of reactionary centrism in practice. And…it’s success rate is not impressive. www.everythingishorrible.net/p/centrism-c...

I keep thinking about this because it just astounds me on a daily basis how many Democrats think "I can't believe you believed us" is a winning electoral strategy. These people truly care about nothing except feeling good about themselves

Why isn’t there an International MEN’s Day? Hmm?? [sees below] Ok but why aren’t there TWO International Men's Days???

This already exists, the problem is in this analogy the cheapest bottle of shampoo costs thirteen hundred dollars

Because the alternative would be reconciling with their absolute lack of any inspirational vision for anything better moderate Dems have decided their message has gone from "Democrats 2026: Better Things Aren't Possible" to "Democrats 2026: Honestly, This Was Your Fault"

So since this cowardly little shit retweeted me with a straw man and then blocked me I guess I have to respond here: "Lying to you" is actually what you'd call spending six solid weeks saying the ENTIRE PURPOSE of the shutdown was to protect the ACA subsidies then giving them up in a "deal."

I have three friends who have already told me they're going to stop having healthcare because they won't be able to afford it anymore but hey congrats on this Epstein stuff that libs are already pivoting to complaining about how it's not actually going to make Trump dissolve into dust immediately

It is so motivating and inspiring to see genuinely creative and talented people succeed in what they do unless they are more than 20 years younger than me in which case I am simply filled with rage

In fairness to The Discourse™️ I think the reason the Nuzzi story is so fascinating is because literally every single person involved in it is criminally insane

Hahaha holy shit take me to Vegas

It's actually amazing how you can read this and physically feel female journalists being professionally held back a little longer

A good way to understand the actions of everyone in this administration is to assume they started watching a gangster film and when they got to the “everything is going great now” montage in the middle of the movie they happily turned it off believing that was the ending

I think the most charming thing about Warhammer 40k is, at its heart, the lore feels like two five-year-olds constantly trying to one-up one another. "MY guy is RAMBO and SHOOTS your guy!" "Nuh-UH cuz my guy is made of DIAMONDS and EATS the bullet!" "The bullet EXPLODES!" "No cuz his tummy is ACID"

Personally, I think the idea that all women should be measured by the failures of Hillary Clinton and Kamala Harris is actually a sort of sexist doomerism.

I hate having to “gotta hand it to her” Marjorie Taylor Greene but she clearly realizes MAGA is dying, the least fun job in the world is being a minority party House member, and she needs to work on being the leading candidate for the next designated conservative chair on The View now

It’s counterintuitive but stuff like this is exactly why Senators should WANT to eliminate the filibuster—because it stops when Congress members realize their insane career ending legislation would actually pass now.

Has anyone else noticed they altered the flavor of cherry NyQuil and follow up, is anyone else incredibly embarrassed they take NyQuil so frequently they noticed this

just going to point out that there's a difference between "Trump is betraying me and maybe Dems are right" and "Trump is betraying me because the Jews have him under mind control"

I love how Renaissance Festivals just let everyone dress up as pirates now because honestly, they never had a problem with Robin Hood at the Renaissance Festival and pirates make more sense because they -actually fucking existed during the Renaissance-

Liberalism is setting bars to embarrassing lows and then bragging about not clearing them

The Center for American Progress, run by Neera Tanden, just appointed Larry Summers to senior fellow status.

There is a cottage industry in professionally complaining all the time about Hazbin Hotel but the one legitimate complaint I agree with is it is very hard to get cohesive writing in a show with like 12 main characters when Amazon only gives it eight 25-minute episodes a season

There is a single area where I have an unironic, nonsarcastic, and genuine sympathy for John Fetterman and that is he clearly hates his job and it is almost certainly harming him both physically and mentally but in a cruel irony he is staying at it because he needs the healthcare

I am getting more and more convinced the rumors are true that Bethesda will shadow drop a Fallout 3 remake next month because doing that right before the premiere of the new season of their TV show based on Fallout New Vegas is peak Bethesda logic

'Matt Gaetz Raped A Homeless Teenager' is what you mean. A teenager with a homeless parent? What? The fuck? Did she have a home and not allow her parent to live in it? Ended up having sex with? What? Yeah clearly you guys been caping for pedos long enough and you understand the assignment here

Happy Partially Muscled Skeleton Stands by the Perimeter Fence Screaming for 30 Seconds Before Vanishing Day to those who celebrate

hey remember how that one big tech ceo was on a panel in like 2021/22 where someone asked him about how remote work gave a lot more power to the workers and he chuckled and said “yeah well a little recession will take care of that” I think about that often.

funny thing is the dems coming out to say protecting the filibuster is so important wouldn't be so bad if they were willing to scrap the virtual filibuster and force a return to the talking filibuster but these fuckers who refuse to skip a three day weekend are never gonna do that either

Cannot stress enough how there is possibly no common experience in one's life where having an actual human helping you instead of an app and an AI chatbot that doesn't work and only makes you angrier is so vitally important and obvious than filing a goddamned insurance claim and yet here we are
