I don't remember not having a sibling and my earliest memories are me and my cousins piled into those foldup baby playpens at Gramma's. We either got along or had an even worse time because that woman raised 8 kids and was on her 8th grandkid and couldn't care less about our crying.

Oregon National Guard Adjutant General, General Gronewold says if they are federalized, that he will advise the Title 10 commander to utilize National Guard Troops to PROTECT protesters at ICE facilities. This is the right answer.

Gonna be thinking about this lede for a minute.

Scroll up for the context, but this always seemed like the end point this trend. I've gotten the impression I have 5-10 years on a lot of the non-politician/journalist accounts on here, but it has the same whiff as a lot of really racist jokes edgy white kids made in high school circa 2000-2009.

A noun, a verb, and antifa seems to be Bondi's go-to.

Makes sense, FIFA does have a thing for autocrats.

this, 2014 andrew luck's fumble recovery, and marcus mariota's self-completion are the three most bewildering qb scramble touchdowns i've ever seen in the nfl. all three happened against the chiefs

What as great example of how out of touch these rich jagoffs are, how many people are retiring before 65? I'd be shocked if even half of Americans were actually retired by 70.

"hand-to-hand combat with antifa every night"

She's gonna get 3 years at Club Fed then pardoned on the way out, got it.

A lil' good and heartwarming news is always welcome. I can't imagine how distraugt I'd be if my dog ran off.

with Portland there's the depressing addendum that 90% of why this is happening is the right wing media grifter ecosystem got badly addicted to viral Portland content during the Trump years and they've been fiending for another hit ever since

wizard frog is insane

Thinking about the @lindsayellis.bsky.social video where she noted how white nationalists co-opted American history X and all these other “strong” critiques but can’t handle “Springtime for Hitler” because of how ridiculous it makes them look

We need to make they know they aren't wanted or welcome for the rest of their lives.

COMING UP: Judge Immergut has set a hearing for 10 pm ET tonight (!) on Trump's effort to circumvent her temporary restraining order re: Oregon national guard deployment by calling up the federalized California national guard.

War is peace. Violence is love.

@govpritzker.illinois.gov 37 and Kedzie, East Garfield, Illinois. This is assault.

Oh, so Nebraska and Michigan State are both on the struggle bus today. Got it.

HEALTH CARE SUBSIDIES: Voters across party lines support renewal of health care subsidies by Congress, new polling found. From States Newsroom:

The messages show high-level officials in the Trump administration discussing the possible deployment of the Army’s 82nd Airborne Division, an infantry force that has dropped into combat zones in both World Wars, Vietnam and Afghanistan.

The lawsuit boils down to two things: the “great level of deference” owed to the Executive Branch when federalizing the National Guard, and the obvious truth that the Executive Branch is, at the moment, completely out of its gourd and posting through it. www.theverge.com/policy/79204...

Nebraska just nuked defending national champs Penn St from deep space 25-6 in the first set.

Remember when we made fun of China for needing internet censors because we had a free internet? I remember. So much for that.

Sounds like a great argument to no longer offer flood insurance in Southern states along the Gulf Coast. If the states want to subsidize failing real estate ventures, they can do it themselves.

Our leaders care more about their foreign ideological allies than they care about We the People.

Found a hole in the giant bag of rice and some droppings so I've been buying rodent control stuff and now my house smells vaguely of peppermint and such. Yay....

He's a two bit mob boss.

And that officials name? Albert Einstein. And then everyone clapped.

and importantly, hereditary Catholics know that you don't get into the Holy Father's replies and argue the Bible with him if you disagree; what you do is acknowledge Papal supremacy as absolute and then ignore him and do whatever you want all the time without ever acknowledging a contradiction

Mike Johnson yearns for the firm boot on his neck of an absolutist king.

the meta ai video slop TikTok is I think the first tech thing where I have been 100% on the side of the Luddites (vernacular usage, I know the actual Luddites were more complex than that, nerds). Usually I think there's a little too much of that reflexively on the left tbh, but no this shit sucks.

I'd call it a dog whistle but it's so loud it's deafening.

What a line from the Pope! I am so pleased he is carrying on Pope Francis’ advocacy for immigrants.

This is also why the Saudis don't do 1970s style production shutdowns anymore, they got most of what they wanted diplomatically, but lost a significant chunk of their market share.

This is also one of like, dozens of things where: - a horrifying thing happens / was identified, people outraged - biden admin made a rule to end that thing or kill the contract for said thing - congress did nothing to protect against it in an enduring way - trump admin re-enables horrifying thing

This story has some absolutely brutal quotes and lines.

Skipping to the near end, after seeing @kyledcheney.bsky.social 's comments, Young is really upset about masks: "It rejects this testimony as disingenuous, squalid and dishonorable." w/r/t Todd Lyons's claims about masks.

If you watch this, with all its attendant pomp and circumstance, its darkness, the grim reality of where we are, and not feel deep within you the spark of rage, the pull of rebellion, then I urge you to reach within yourself and find that thread and give it a good yank We’re in for a hell of decade

This man is a national embarrassment.

This incompetent jackass thought Starship Troopers was aspirational.

would love to hear more congressional democrats say "should we win power next year we are going to treat every one of these as bribes and act accordingly" arstechnica.com/tech-policy/...

I can't stand this man. Just an utter lack of respect for Nebraskans.

Everyone involved in this needs to be tried for war crimes an sent to the Hague.

Also, can we also lay off the "And after the farms go bankrupt, AcreTrader will scoop them up!" thing? Y'all. AcreTrader doesn't buy farms. They invest in farms for an equity stake. If those farms go bankrupt, AcreTrader loses money! They don't even get the land! The bank does!
