as it becomes clear that Yes has won in VA and gerrymandering will pass, a message to Republican voters: you brought this on yourselves you convinced the most fairness-obsessed, That Wouldn’t Be Fair-minded voters in the country to affirmatively vote to put you in the dumpster you earned this

I am not kidding this is going to have to be a question for every political appointee, every federal employee, civil service, and on SF-86s for the next 50 years

No one, and I mean no one, has ever been more destined to repeat history.

I think part of the reason the Pope thing is hitting so much is that modern life is so devoid of *any* morality, any system of right and wrong that is not completely hollow and fraudulent, which hits as halfway sensible and opposed to Trump and those like him, feels absolutely revolutionary

Good for him but I am tired of learning about all the ways a 41-year-old candidate for U.S. Senate supposedly has a lot more growing and learning to do. Maybe do that before the Senate? And maybe try out a lower office before then? Or maybe we just watch him blossom into another Sinema/Fetterman.

Seeing so much invoking of just war theory by the dumbest people alive, not seeing anyone attempt to explain how this war meets the criteria (it doesn't, at all). craven stuff!

blood boiling

Politically homeless? Hope you're sitting down,

no one is doing it like jd vance, a loser across three continents in a single weekend

Hey uh what the actual fuck

i will vote for dems who say this stuff and act on this stuff! i will give them money! i will tell my friends to do the same! it is what i want from government more than anything else right now!

A reliable metric for a losing war: notice how often a combatant describes inputs (ordinance dropped, resources committed, duration of operation) as a substitute for outputs (effects a military operation is intending to produce).

Seeing some prominent liberal pol posters get on board with the wildly bad-faith, conservative-led dogpile on Hasan Piker. I sure don't respect that! Yikes!

The thing to remember is his residual strategy is to commit war crimes as leverage attempt. Attacking Iran’s electrical grid will unambiguously be the deliberate bombing of a civilian target.

So when NASA builds a rocket it makes it into space no problem. Why are we paying anyone else to make rockets.

One (1) reporter please ask JD Vance on camera to recite the Nicene Creed I know his ass cannot

Literally turned on the Phillies at the exact moment to see that ball go out. I did not have to even ask who's pitching

It's going to be the biggest, easiest to avoid "Fell For It Again" award of all time

Folks you heard it here first: 2026 NL Cy Young Award winner Christopher Sanchez

Rough couple of days for some of the most annoying people I know

Becoming more curious what we would put Rob’s RIPCON level at

it's so funny shelby foote's main contribution to ken burns' baseball (which im rewatching for opening day) is saying there's something admirable and core to the american identity about being a bitter, sore loser. like yeah a confederate apologist would think that

I don't ever make impulse purchases but man did I slam the buy button on this

I allowed Popular Online Sportwriters to convince me of incredible things. "Hawaii can beat Arkansas," "Penn can beat Illinois." No they didn't. That isn't true

Chuck Norris absolutely died still believing Barack Obama was born in Kenya. Even big Donny gave up on that years ago. Anyway rip in piss dickhead

i am so fucking tired man

It is so funny that he went “idk” at the reunification question the other day then dropped this absolute banger

Checking in on our tech overlords, one is on his way to Rome to give a series of talks about the antichrist and another has convinced himself that thinking is fake

"In Israeli rhetoric, every war is presented as existential. In reality, this is less and less true for Israel itself and increasingly true for its periphery, as the dominance Israel has sought to impose for over two years recognizes only its own rights and no responsibilities." ⬇️

if the Justice Department and federal judges are willing to set the bar for “providing material support to terrorists” this low—an encrypted group chat, auto-deleting messages, wearing black, possessing zines—what the Praireland defendants have been through will likely be just the beginning

The political culture of the contemporary GOP is indistinguishable from that of the school shooter community

Bam Adebayo has instead chosen to respect Kobe’s legacy by not dying in a helicopter crash

One of the biggest threats to America is indeed religious fundamentalism but it’s white Christian fundamentalism. You don’t see the NYT demanding every Christian politician answer for the sins of their co-believers.

The moderate position at this point is crushing sanctions against Israel. Everything less than that is collaboration.

It's never too early to start manufacturing consent for Israel's next foreign policy goal

The same kind of overconfidence that believed Joe Kennedy III could primary Ed Markey

This is all I’ve wanted to see from a Democrat since Jan 2025. You can see the exact microsecond in Kristi Noem’s eyes when she realizes fascism inevitably eats its servants.

The Phillies have progressed past the need for Garrett Stubbs. Get this dork ass off the team

Lmao second year in a row where peak bloom is possibly on the day of the Nationals home opener. I won't make that mistake again!

This time around, we have to worry not just about whether they're lying, but about whether they're lying specifically to cash in by swaying the stakes on Polymarket and Kalshi bets.

If I were a head of state, I would think setting a precedent that assassination is a legitimate tool of state competition would be unwise

can we please give my tax dollars to a blue haired 23 year old who will make weird alienating art with it instead of this wasteful bullshit

I fantasize constantly now about getting to be part of the next wave of public service that undoes all of this and brings any amount of justice to these monsters

We’ve all been thinking: Pope Leo excommunicate JD Vance but maybe we should have been thinking Pope Leo excommunicate Roberts, Alito, Thomas, Kavanaugh, Barrett

I am apparently the only person in the world who thinks the Nier games are a confusing mess (frustrating) and I do not trust Yoko Taro with Evangelion, which is a different kind of confusing mess (fun)

Hahahaha jesus christ this is one of the worst things I've ever seen. Fucking god this is awful

Entering a Possibly Different Cool Zone where the president tries to **** the entire SCOTUS

Some would say that this is perhaps the literal opposite of the proper ethics consideration for something like this, but what do I know
