This is what's so aggravating to me.

You're mad because you expect a "software update" to make things work better. You will only be free when you understand this to be an illusion and accept the fact that software is suffering

1) It's Vodun; I'd say this inaccuracy is what happens when you fire all your Black and Brown editors but this is Fox so 2) Needlefelting can be used in so many ways! 3) Everybody is returning to their ancestral practices these days!

It almost goes without saying, but this is illegal. The name "John F. Kennedy Center for the Performing Arts" is established by law and the board doesn't have the power to change it. 20 USC 3 §§ 76h - 76s.

Math. How does it work?

They booked a bunch of 14 year old models to come to a Mar A Lago party, told them to dress sexy and tried to ply them with alcohol.

It does at least it clear that this is colonialist medicine, implementing an experiment wherein they provide treatment below the standard of care in Denmark and soon below the standard of care in Guinea-Bissau as well. IMO it’s staggeringly unethical.

I just want to say for the record that when the history books are written centuries from now, I believe the election of Donald Trump in a free and fair election in 2024 will go down as one of the most senseless and self-destructive own goals in human history

I've been saying for a long, long time that Trump holdovers at the FBI WFO hamstrung the DOJ's investigations into Donald Trump. These new Grassley emails prove it. Example: Garland green-lit the search of Mar-a-Lago over multiple attempts to stonewall, and found evidence of multiple crimes.

I know you had only 240 characters, but the real evil here is Collins for not doing a journalist’s job envisioned by this nation’s founders and pressing the point to get an answer. Politicians have always lied. Real journalists, in the past, haven’t always let them do it.

SCHATZ: You think you have jurisdiction over political satire? FCC CHAIR BRENDAN CARR: My positio--- SCHATZ: It's a yes or no BRENDAN CARR: We have jurisdiction with respect the broadcast airwaves to ensure their operations are int he public interest (That's a yes!)

BREAKING: The House of Representatives just passed a bill that would subject immigrant children to invasive bodily searches and keep them in detention instead of releasing them to their families. The Senate must vote no on this horrific bill.

Family members are still waiting for Matt Aldridge’s body to be recovered.

We just murdered eight more people in boats.

Virginia Heffernan wrote this shortly after the 2016 election and it still holds true

Still in a state of shock trying to process the tragic loss of one of the most gifted men in the entertainment industry & his wife when the Embarrassment-in-Chief disgraces common human decency with this repulsive, deranged statement. #NoWords 🤮

The House is about to vote on a health care bill that fails to extend the ACA premium tax credits that millions of families rely on to afford coverage. Tell your congressperson: extend the ACA premium tax credits and lower health care costs! act.afscme.org/letters/tell...

not the kind of behavior I expect from the winner of the fifa peace prize

🇪🇺🇺🇦 Kallas: The Donbas isn’t Putin’s end game. If he gets it, he will demand more. We know this from history and we should learn from history.

The standard you walk past is the standard you accept. By not condemning and expelling Tuberville from the party, Republicans have essentially endorsed and normalized his repugnant views. He speaks for every Republican.

I think the fundamental gap here is that non-creative people think that creative people make things for the end product, when in fact it’s the act of creation and not the end point that makes it worthwhile.

Well that sucks. A great director, and while I didn't agree with his every political take I appreciated he got unapologetically into political fights that mattered, and tried to educate himself on the issues. www.latimes.com/entertainmen...

Trump is trying to steal the money importers have paid in illegal tariffs before SCOTUS rules the tariffs were illegal. www.politico.com/news/2025/12...

What these sorry-ass motherfuckers are unwilling to say outright is that they prefer a *white male candidate* under all circumstances. White men. 400 years of white male supremacy have made them the most entitled, arrogant, stupid, ignorant assholes the planet has ever seen.🙄

It’s always ok to turn off the News Take a break If it’s overwhelming you

Plenty of non-misogynists have been saying this same thing for years now. Maybe go listen to one of them, instead.

Did they just try to cover up the crowd booing Trump at the Army Navy game? Did I mishear that?

In case you have never seen this.

what the fuck are you talking about man

Following breaking news on social media is dangerous business…especially when leaders have earned a reputation for posting false information often. Best to rely on official information from the police and/or university.

All Republicans in Congress are faced with a choice. They either stand with Trump, Vance and Putin, or they stand with Ukraine, Europe, most Americans, and the civilized world. Of course, there is also a 3rd option which most of them usually choose - cowardly silence.

Any member of faculty at Oklahoma University who stands up for trans people will be automatically suspended.

We documented dozens of cases of brutality — including physical and sexual abuse from guards — that show a humanitarian disaster unfolding at the Fort Bliss military base, where ICE is operating its largest detention center. President Trump’s mass detention expansion is inhumane and dangerous.

Bovino, the man overseeing mass deportations, publicly declared that we must all have our papers on us, at all times, or we could be stopped, harassed, kidnapped, and detained, as they did with the man in this case, who is a US citizen.

If Greg Bovino does not go to prison for the rest of his life after this regime is ousted, we do not have a real country or rule of law. I'm skeptical we still have either at this point, but that will be a good indicator post Trump regime of whether we have serious people in charge again

Pardons would prevent federal prosecutions, sure. Federal prosecutions aren’t the only way to write the closing chapter to a lawless authoritarian regime.

Very sad that I felt I had no choice but to resign from The Infinite Monkey Cage - a victory for the transphobes and other bigots - I did it because so much of the media has chosen to believe the kind and empathetic people are a fiction - they are real and so often unrepresented.

Covid vaccines released last fall sharply decreased the risk of ER and urgent care visits in children, according to new data released by the CDC — providing a striking counterpoint to Trump administration rhetoric about the shots Gift link: www.nytimes.com/2025/12/11/h...

Apparently we’ve established that if the US can seize the largest tanker off Venezuela, it can just as easily seize a small, alleged drug boat without murdering the occupants.

25 years ago today, SCOTUS elected George W Bush president of the United States by blocking completion of a voting canvass in Florida. A subsequent canvass by the Associated Press showed that Bush's rival, Al Gore, had won the race in Florida—and thus the contest for the presidency—by 700 votes.

A 9-0 GOP gerrymander goes down in flames.
