Call me a nerd, but yesterday, a federal judge in Pennsylvania cited my reporting in a ruling against the DOJ in a case challenging Trump-era actions targeting transgender people. A reminder that this work really does matter.

Counterpoint: suck my dick from the back

If any of my wedding photos had my wife looking like she was an American POW at the Hanoi Hilton blinking SOS I would seriously reconsider my life.

Please stop weaponising antisemitism as a cudgel to beat the left with. Especially to beat leftist Jews with! It’s almost as if…

got my kid a subscription to the onion print edition and he spent some time yesterday walking in and out of the room to show me what he thought were the funniest parts

someone’s gotta give John McTiernan like $200m for one last job before he dies. he could save action movies and redeem himself for his criminal past

in what way is this a shock? the man is despised across the political spectrum. if anything im surprised it's only 1 in 3.

Every British columnist is currently writing articles like "I Will Have MI5 Classify My Adult Children As Terrorists If They Screen My Calls," so I assume that devoting the entire UK press to destroying trans people is going well.

Mumsnet, Christmas Day:

Your countries with Billionaires that have "universal health care" would have the ACTUAL universal healthcare programs that aren't Bureaucratic Nightmares if you didn't have Billionaires. This is an objective fact. Tax your Billionaires until they are not Billionaires and give the money to people.

I’m having a VERY Merry Christmas — that Mothers Against College Antisemitism (MACA) page that doxed and harassed so many people over the last years is shutting down over infighting. In shocking revelation these hateful people are hateful to one another too ✨

The billionaire is legitimately asking every few weeks how we do universal healthcare in this country. Trust billionaires! 🇺🇸

"Most Americans have no idea of the variety of ways universal coverage works" The fact that we HAVE Billionaires like Mark Cuban is why we don't have healthcare and why no one can explain how it works. Hope this helps.

Fuck you.

Batman Begins

I was born in April 1805 Napoleon was master of Europe Only the BRITISH FLEET stood before him Oceans were now battlefields

The UK papers have been fawning over Radiohead this past year because Greenwood and Yorke have said dodgy statements concerning Israel. It wouldn’t last. Now the papers have turned on them (their music sucks now, apparently) for supporting the European Convention for Human Rights

had no idea what to fill this blank space with on jovi's xmas card, but only briefly

"We saw you from across the bar and thought you should be deported."

Christmas Eve activities for a billionaire

Extremely funny to call the pope “holier-than-thou”

Bari Weiss’ two accomplishments so far are hosting an interview that she desperately wanted people to watch (but they didn’t) and trying to spike a news story that she desperately wanted nobody to watch (but they did)

Merry Christmas

I dont like putting this monster on my timeline but… my stomach genuinely turned. We live in an abominatingly disgusting country.

There’s no pretense here of the student even attempting to complete the assignment according to the rubric of the course. How the university can even pretend that any of this is about academic judgement is beyond me. Call it out for the nakedly and calculatedly political act that it is.

this photo was going viral on here like an hour before Charlie Kirk got shot and now that the dust has settled somewhat it’s time to revisit how funny this is

The organized astroturfing and financing of these extreme ideologies is one of the key stories of our time

Anti-trans demagogue and fifth place swimmer Riley Gaines earned $470,000+ last year from a conservative non-profit. Notably, $420k was incentive-based. A neat little window into the way the transphobic grift is being compensated. I wonder what the per-post rate is?

An advent calendar for every month besides December, where you get a little treat each day because life is hard

That peanut worm is a little too exciting for me you got anything else?

This is quite a telling statement about how the US Holocaust Museum conceives of its mission.

“How can you suddenly dislike art when you find out it’s made by AI?” For the same reason I can dislike art when I find out the employees were overworked and underpaid. Because I care about people. You dipshit.

what did he know

"It is logically impossible to simultaneously be evil, corrupt, and incompetent" is an absolutely amazing take to have in the year of 2025

You fool Loomis! Your paws can't reach the pedals!

There is a class of establishment media liberals whose primary driving impetus as we descend into fascism is to ensure you know they aren't to blame.

As an actual Religious Studies scholar, it is an insult to our field to describe anything this student wrote about gender as "Bible-based."

UN experts condemn US naval blockade of Venezuela as illegal aggression https://aje.io/d5kzwh

"Santa Shagged Me Missus" has skyrocketed to the top of the UK charts

"RIP to the Heritage Foundation, which functionally died this week, as its most prominent staffers made a beeline for the exit." Good riddance! Boom from @lizdye.bsky.social in @atrupar.com's latest PN. open.substack.com/pub/aaronrup...
