There are no circumstances where human beings should be without food. There are no qualifications that make someone undeserving of access to food. If you are a human being, you should get food. I don’t care about ability, job status, legal status, or anything else. If people are hungry, feed them.

Nothing’s funny anymore, but “23% of Americans yearn for the White House East Wing to be demolished” is sort of funny.

the Platner discourse has frustrating echoes of the Newsom discourse, in that people seem to want us to just give up now and lock in without waiting to see if something better turns up. this isn't blackjack! we can keep asking the dealer to turn over more cards for like another YEAR

You just know that there was a Thick of It-esque moment where the original set-up had the pink balls getting to stay and the black balls being deported, and someone went, 'Er, Katie, could that maybe be construed...' and some poor bag-carrier had to scour Westminster for lots more pink balls.

Imagine a tinny version of YMCA playing in these dark and abandoned rooms, forever

obviously opposed to religious violence but I think if you are implementing an actual plan to banish the night then some kind of state-condoned moon priestess should be allowed to ritually sacrifice you, willing to be flexible on that one

Someone tell me why everyone's falling on their swords for the Blackwater Redditor with the SS tattoo in a primary with a bunch of other candidates that's months away

Having worked at a CAP agency and a homeless shelter, I can attest that the impact of food waste programs like SNAP, which also allow companies a write off for the donation, is significant. It’s a game changer for underserved communities and a rare win win.

I would personally love to ignore all of this. Collins sucks. Mills is too old. Platner says all the right stuff and he seems young and energetic and HE HAS A GIANT NAZI TATTOO WHAT ARE YOU TALING ABOUT

everyone screaming "primary everyone" (as I did) needs to be ok with the challenger getting nerfed like this because that's what a primary is. you don't get to motte and bailey yourself into "my special smol boy didn't know any better"

Historic preservation is confusing. In Seattle, we conferred permanent landmark status to a Walgreen’s drive-thru.

It's a CURTIS SLIWA CHRISTMAS!

Every time someone trips over a cord in Virginia and takes down half the internet, I’m reminded how powerful a unionized tech industry could be

speaking of I actually have a really good idea for how to reinvigorate the post office

Nixon's "Saturday Night Massacre" was 52 years ago today. It was a shocking breach of DOJ norms, and a major turning point for public opinion on Watergate. Trump already had one of these (on a Thursday) in February, and has had at least four more since then

Who robbed the Louvre? Right answers only

For the first time in more than 100 years, Chinook salmon have been spotted at the confluence of the Sprague and Williamson rivers in Chiloquin, the government seat of the Klamath Tribes in Southern Oregon.

The UK has somehow managed 4 prime ministers in a row who have each been the worst prime minister of my lifetime, how are they even finding them with this consistency

Laws are not self-executing. Is this an obvious Hatch Act violation? Of course. But without good men and women in government faithfully executing the laws, it doesn't matter. When this is all over, assuming we still have a constitutional government, there needs to be an accounting.

"The All-American Halftime Show"

extremely mixed feelings about last night. settling on "it'll be okay if we win the series anyway" because Max Scherzer, among other things, bought me my cat

At last we’re building the ozymandias statue from the visionary sonnet “don’t build the ozymandias statue”

“Who put this golden door here? Why are you lifting that lamp beside it? What the hell is this place?”

He should be Cat Czar, he just runs adoption and sterilization drives, shelters for ferals, and city-owned cat cafes

[hunter s thompson, at the kentucky derby, 15 juleps deep, and wearing a hat he definitely did not have when he got there] you want me to come into the office lol. lmao even.

YES

unbothered. thriving. what’s the opposite of locked in? freedom.

the best we're gonna get, and it won't come without a fight

moe throwing barney out of the bar where moe is american society and barney is lead poisoning

No, this email does not find me well. I am on the trails, taking advantage of every moment of sunshine before the big dark. The email can’t even find me at all.

to me, the whole point of ROSENCRANTZ AND GUILDENSTERN ARE DEAD is that we want to imagine characters having full off-stage lives but actually they're in a void where nothing happens to them until they abruptly encounter The Story again bsky.app/profile/mike...

Lee Pace in The Fall is the result of a decades-long experiment to see what happens if all the hotness for an entire generation is concentrated in the body of a single man

If anyone needs me I will be in the museum, lying down next to the bog bodies.

few ideas have damaged the average psyche more than ‘the customer is always right.’ it should be a little bit humiliating, being a customer. you should walk into any service transaction knowing that the other person, and not you, is in control over whether you get your treats

Pictured: the four primary forms of anarchism (mostly laudatory, except for Rick of course).

girl are you chatgpt because your KPIs are crazy

It's a shame Orwell is so often reduced to 1984 and Animal Farm, which are so commonly abused to have become worthless cliches, when his non-fiction is so interesting and still relevant today. His obsession with language and politics is particularly interesting to think about now

Hi, judge expert here! Judges only do this when they’re VERY distressed!

I like how the news will be like “while the President claiming Portland was ruled by a giant skeleton named Mr Nibbles is not strictly true, it does speak to the anxiety of many Americans”

Took a break from the Supreme Court's ongoing horrorshow to focus on what really matters: how funny it is for a federal judge to decide, as a matter of law, that Drake lost the Kendrick Lamar beef
