I hope Mexico beats England today as revenge for Mexico week on the Great British Bake-off

It's very much this

You owe it to yourself to listen to this with the sound on.

Sorry but this is some sick shit

“There was zero plan, except causing pain,” said one U.N. official about the Trump administration’s decision to stop funding the group with no notice or communication. “And that is not forgivable.” (Published Dec. 2025)

Very thankful for this letter to Becky Pepper-Jackson (the 16 year-old trans girl SCOTUS ruled against yesterday) from James Dale, a gay man whose expulsion from the Boy Scouts was upheld by the Supreme Court in 2000.

i kinda love this answer, it’s very illuminating. it’s not about female athletes at all, it’s about the fragile egos of delusional psychopathic parents who want returns on their perceived investments

JD Vance puts the Christ in "Christ, what an asshole."

SCOTUS reform won't just simply happen if Dems take Congress & the White House. A case has to be made for it—to a skeptical public, to reluctant politicians, to a hostile media. The blowback from the right will be intense and terrify a lot of weak-willed pols. The case has to be made starting *now*

me talking to magically resurrected founding father: and so sir you can see how the supreme court has become a deeply illegitimate institution that threatens the very republic you created founding father: there are *how many* papists on it???

Textbooks should be updated to reflect the three official branches of the federal government: the nine-man council of wizard elders, the Federal Reserve, and a senile real estate developer with with unfettered rule over everything else.

Qualified immunity is a Calvinball nonsense doctrine, woven ex nihilo by the US Supreme Court Its sole purpose is to protect government officials from the consequences of their own bad decisions, when they violate the rights of the citizenry It has no basis in any law passed by Congress 1/

Incredible chart from @propublica.org. If you don’t follow enviro stuff closely, your instinct might be that the hold-your-nose solution (carbon capture from fossil fuels) would be the “pragmatic” one versus covering Earth in solar panels, which seems utopian. In fact it’s the opposite

It's a very dangerous Trump-era instinct to take a celebrity you and your peer group feel a lot of goodwill towards and project both good personal politics and presidential ambitions onto them. That's why I think a more realistic ceiling for johnny knoxville is ambassador to the UN

JD Vance is a tulpa created by the Chappelle Show

There are so many fucked up things about this, not least of which is that they tracked down this completely anodyne post quoting a news article from January and just happened to come to her in June, when she was working a polling place.

Technically, they’re Remains now.

Musk says not a single person has died due to him axing USAID. Sadly, part of my job involves tracking aid spending. So here’s a thread with just some of the people who lost their lives because of USAID cuts

This is like the old days on Twitter. I just saw it now, but this person predicted the reflecting pool debacle a month ago.

Climate.us is officially live! After NOAA ended Climate.gov’s day-to-day operations in 2025, former team members built Climate.us to carry that work forward. Their explanations and graphics have always stood out to me as clear, accessible, and transparent. I’m really looking forward to this reboot.

also, stop saying “nationalize space x”, i do not want to pay a trillion dollars of taxpayer money to elon musk, i want congress to do such a thoroughly vicious job of destroying space x that we can buy it for $28.73

Landor “gave them a printed copy of a 2017 federal court decision which already held that Louisiana’s policy of cutting incarcerated Rastafarians’ hair violated the RLUIPA. The officials threw all of Landor’s documents in the trash, handcuffed him to a chair … and sheared him down to the scalp.”

We, as a nation, are collectively missing a great opportunity to get RFK Jr to drink from the reflecting pool.

Trump: we will rain blows upon you until you eliminate your missile program Iran: you won't T: and your nuclear program I: we'll be keeping that T: fair enough. regime change? I: no T: reopen hormuz? I: *admires fingernails* T: handshake? eye contact? I: *closes door behind them* T: *to camera*

lmao poor yorick. they got his ass

Every single person that fought back did this. You did this. When we fight, we win. Keep fighting.

The chunks of blue paint peeling off the bottom of the pool is too much. I can’t. How is this real?

you can log on and encounter behavior on a *daily basis* that would instantly make someone a local pariah in 95% of real world contexts, and the fact that that percentage is lower than 99.99% is itself explained by the fact that we've been running this social experiment for years now

none of this is true and the place where this is going is potentially very awful

The center-white punditocracy spent ~2 decades sarcastically scare-quoting through takes like "Oh, sure, Oberlin students. Eeeverything's about gender and race. Eeeverything's about how white men perform their masculinity & their whiteness." Next thing you know: Pete Hegseth & UFC White House Night.

Just ordered the book because fuck this noise, and you should too.

this is news new york times reporters had months ago, but they suppressed it and kept it out of the paper so they could goose book sales. this should be a scandal but its how modern journalism is conducted now.

A court in Munich declared that Google is liable for their "AI summaries" and all its hallucinations. This brings "AI" slop in line with all other products: "AI" is basically the only product where a provider can deliver unchecked garbage and put all liability on the consumer.

"weirdly accented weirdly named sexually inadequate moon Trillionaire becomes threat to the UK" is a Bond movie premise where eventually he gets pushed into a tank full of horny sea leopards, but MI6 doesn't have the juice for that these days

– Hello, AI. This is what I did. Am I fucked? – Yes, now you are. [You have run out of answers. Add more smurfberries or upgrade to Footshooter Pro for more answers]

the following are all probably true and not in the least contradictory: 1. There's a huge bubble in AI investment, the crash is going to be bad 2. A majority of the tasks we've been promised AI will "take over," it will not 3. AI will completely transform coding

Hunter Biden is enjoying himself, and I am enjoying that, and the thought about how his angriest detractors are likely unhinged by his responses to them because of their personalities.

Elon about to run off with everyone's 401k in the most obvious pump and dump of all time like a heel cashing in his Money in the Bank briefcase.

I've said it before and I will say it again: the hated 'administrative state' -- and much of what is disparagingly and dismissively referred to as 'big government' -- is a Chesterton's Fence

🚨@drdebhoury.bsky.social, @craigspencer.bsky.social, Anne Schuchat & I drafted an open letter to Congress expressing concerns about the proposed use of third-country facilities for Americans potentially exposed to or infected with Ebola.

Grok/AI valuation is 26.5 trillion????? This is insane.

IMPORTANT UPDATE: The person who originally saw this broadcast and took the pictures of the TV is currently the Icelandic Ambassador to the US.

the one thing these people cannot countenance is being Accurately Described. all of this is happening because the internet provided a means for people to Accurately Describe them to their faces. and they lost their fucking minds
