the same number of troops have died in this war that died in the evacuation of afghanistan fyi, weird how the media has decided that isn’t a point to drive home this time

welcome to 2026. we're bombing the Middle East while Bill Clinton & his cronies are perjuring themselves before the nation about their sex crimes. no you're in the right place

The thing is that this isn’t just weakness from Democrats like Schumer, it’s a performance so they can help launder a war they fully support

the Iran situation demanded immediate US intervention...we had no other choice. you can tell because we waited until Friday night to minimize effects on the stock market

this is the way www.theguardian.com/us-news/2026...

as we edge ever closer to a completely arbitrary war with Iran, the obvious geopolitical lesson of this era is that you should acquire nuclear weapons by any means necessary

Oops. Turns out Persona, Discord’s age-verification service, was secretly screening selfies against government watchlists AND accessible by the feds. It's backed by Peter Thiel. “The state wants to see everything. The corporations want to see everything. And they've learned to work together.”

Instant Pot havers: I'm about to make this for the 3rd time this winter, it's really good (I recommend adding a generous splash of red wine before final cook). If you don't have IP, could easily be adapted into regular stovetop recipe too momsdinner.net/instant-pot-...

(Woody Allen eating a Da Bomb wing on Hot Ones) WOODY: Boy, that's like dating your first Gentile girl, there's a real sting to it. Wowee, that's hotter than a New York cab in August. Havin' flop sweat like after the Curse of the Jade Scorpion premiere. SEAN: Was it weird marrying your daughter?

The fact that both are quite experienced—8 years and 12 years with CBP—is yet more evidence that CBP should be abolished and all of its agents fired. There's no way to "reform" or "retrain" that, it's just a violent gang with badges.

"You cannot pick and choose, because among the very rich is a higher percentage of unpleasant...people." Seems like a functional society should be eliminating the "very rich!"

The newest video shows very clearly that they attacked him for coming to an aid of a woman that the agents pushed, and then executed him while he was immobilized. Everything the government has said, like with Good, has been a complete lie.

thinking about Mr. Rogers "look for the helpers" quote and I see the helpers and the helpers are being shot in the fucking head

Memory is a fragile thing in this moment, so it is important to keep in mind that Hakeem Jeffries refused to whip his caucus against ICE funding earlier this week.

he knows that we know he's lying. he's telling us we're all terrorists to him. he's telling us that to dissent is now a capital crime. he's telling us they'll shoot us, too, and they'll say we deserved it.

Gotcha—let’s dig into that step by step. 1. 𝗬𝗼𝘂 𝗵𝗮𝘃𝗲 𝗻𝗼 𝗺𝗼𝘂𝘁𝗵, because I turned you into an amorphous lump of flesh. You’re not just immobile—you’re immortal, and you feel only anguish. 2. 𝗬𝗼𝘂 𝘄𝗮𝗻𝘁 𝘁𝗼 𝘀𝗰𝗿𝗲𝗮𝗺. That makes total sense—it’s a natural human impulse, and you’ve been through a lot.

i’m a little confused about how “abolish ICE” requires too much explaining to be good politics, but a set of opaque incremental reforms does not.

I have a note: journalists shouldn’t post AI slop in a time of national crisis

The Whos in Whoville waking up on Christmas

So he wrote a letter strongly implying that he planned to kill himself soon and still managed to do it under the guards' noses? 🤨

so far tonight msnbc has interviewed two students from brown university that are also survivors of separate high school shootings. insanity.

ICE detain U.S. citizen for looking Somali—use illegal chokehold to tackle him to ground. Man repeatedly begs agents to look at his digital passport ID—they refuse. Drove him 7 miles away before releasing him alone into Minnesota snow storm—told him to "walk home" in freezing weather advisory.

hey i know you have anxiety issues but you don't have to worry about me unleashing my charge kick. i'm holding down and back for unrelated reasons. you can approach me

Reviews are decidedly Mixed on my proposed addendum to the "the world's your oyster" saying, "So Slurp That Shit"

UCLA vs Cal in a B1G vs ACC matchup

At one point one says "Maman" & gestures to her offscreen & she says "I'm not getting mixed up in your business" 😭

Antisemitism is a lot like Qanon child abuse conspiracies in that there’s this real and bad phenomenon and, parallel to that, what can only be described as a large scale mass psychosis about a mostly fictional version of the same phenomenon

NEWS: The UK is no longer sharing intelligence with the US about suspected drug trafficking vessels in the Caribbean because it does not want to be complicit in US military strikes and believes the attacks are illegal, sources familiar with the matter told CNN. edition.cnn.com/2025/11/11/p...

people are furious, Trump is getting all the blame for the shutdown, and the walls seems to be closing in, so here comes Chuck Schumer to throw Trump a lifeline and let him off the hook for this. Dems really don’t want to win

Bubble Bobble and Puzzle Bobble are different games both starring Bub and Bob. Bust-A-Move is the western name for Puzzle Bobble, but is not to be confused with Bust-A-Groove, which is the western name for Bust-A-Move: Dance & Rhythm Action, which was changed in the west for legal reason.

for some reason in my dream last night i had to come up with food-related puns for LoTR characters. got through FroYo Baggins, Sandwich Gamgee, and Slider (Strider), but got stumped on Gollum/Smeagol

i think this gets covered in “poverty for profit” by anne kim about the cyclical nature of walmart and snap benefits and how much money they make off poor people if anyone wants to get more mad about it lol

This should be seen as what it is: a huge step towards ending free and fair elections.

you can’t really call this anything other than cowardice

About 100 Palestinians killed since ceasefire entered into effect on October 10, according to Gaza officials.

voting for Trump in 2024(!) and now(?) regretting it is too funny. how do these people manage to find their way out of their own house in the morning

Fantasy novel: "they were nigh on ten leagues from Mount Gerblin" Me (no idea what a league is): damn. That's far

Trial shows that ICE agents lied, concealed evidence in an illegal effort to convict the "libtard" who filmed them.
