pst the left were a huge part of this movement becoming a fucking joke. Because worse than not caring if women were actually raped, you thought it would be really exciting to leverage women who definitely weren't raped for your own political ends.

sheep detectives is really good

I don't think the dog rape story is true.

Even if somebody who really dislikes smoking, the San Francisco outdoor smoking ban is another example of a law that only targets the people who care all about the law, while extravagant, and much more destructive, drug use is going to carry on as they've been allowing

It astonishes, just astonishes me, that Pakistan could be a bad ally for the first time ever. for the first time ever this has happened

Thai curry is so much better than Japanese curry. Sorry everyone.

They'll be saying this when he's in his fucking tomb

I don't really know what AI is going to do and I don't have any strong projections, but it's literally so funny on this website when people are like, oh my God, AI can perfectly format citations, this is going to change Everything for Everyone and I'm like, yeah, so many people have to do that lol

I really do want to hear a leftist explain why Harris accepting Liz Cheney’s totally unconditional support was so unforgivable they’re still bringing it up, but we should all suck up to Marjorie Taylor Green now, and how that’s different.

It's literally the same people they just pretend they have different politics now.

wife and I watching "The Wire", the deep space 9 episode that is basically The slash shipping episode of all time. of all time. the legend

My wife , who must love me, else she would never have suffered through a 15-minute rant about how stupid hbo's "Oz" was —

This is a really common type of fraud and it basically relies on people forgetting that they did it

Been hormonally Going Thru It and wept the entire run of Sheep Detectives for some reason (which is a really good movie and I would recommend for any family).

Yeah a lot of folks who fell for the 2020 get rich schemes (crypto, nfts, reselling) and are now continuing to fall for new ones (sports betting, prediction markets). I do think like 30% of gen Z men getting fleeced by scams is probably not great going forward

I think something that Will Stancil hasn't quite internalized about people's experience in the current economy but doesn't disprove his point is the sheer number of 'get rich quick' schemes that fell apart that people are not admitting to having participated in. They were nuts in 20-21.

The goal of left politics is to win power so you can make people's lives better in the US and across the world. If the goal of your politics is to try to engineer a specific outcome in a specific group of people in order to bring about a 19th-century economic prophecy, we're going to be at odds.

A lot of the left obsesses over winning back white working-class voters for no other reason that that a united working class is a requirement to fulfill the essentially religious Hegelian teleology of Karl Marx, which of course is a really fundamentally dumb value to bring to electoral politics.

This is a very common point of confusion. The vast majority of the way corporations harm the environment is by responding to consumer demand. People have built this fantasy world where the American middle class isn't at all responsible for the gas they buy or the water they use on their lawns.

You know what's funny? Olivia Hill made a roleplaying game back in 2019 that's more than a little fascist in its assumptions, both ideologically and in terms of being politically incoherent but angry.

This Mother's Day, let me say: I love my mom so much! I love my mother.

"The dark ages weren't bad, it's just a time with few primary records or metal or ceramic artifacts" ok so......

live action Rick lookin ass

no they aren't. that is not true.

going to the Tuff Shed display so I can play 'actual shed vs illegal ADU'

The great shitbird realignment of the late 2000s and 2010s has produced a GOP which is heavily dependent on lower income male voters, but which actively does not want to advocate for their interests. And the Democratic party, mostly for legacy reasons, continues to shoulder that burden.

anti-beneficiary on an account. "If I die, you can give it to whomever. except him."

What is it about political service that people think it should be unpaid

Y’know without the chart, most people probably would think this is solid. But when you include the chart all we can see is how awful the job market is and it just makes the blatant lying so condescending

I don't have strong opinions on mothers day except that maybe the internet should take a break from trauma dumping on that day. We've had about 15 straight years of that. This mothers day give yourself the gift of buying a journal and commit to actually talking about this stuff with a therapist.

at this point Jewish groups should start generating millions of videos of guys in yarmulkes saving kittens and playing football in small Texas towns and giving water to crying AI fruit women and stuff. Put it all over social media.

At this point, it would be cheaper to create miniature blimps with little tiny house baskets attached, one for each homeless person in LA

Medhi Hasan will get on X and be like "a lot of my leftist friends agree with Tucker Carlson", he can't pull that shit here, and I think that is good

here we go again, the new york times calling an increase of 115k jobs under Trump "solid" while it called similar or considerably bigger gains under Biden "disappointing" or "weak"

It isn't a genocide. It wasn't a genocide. All of you live in embarrassing silos.

This was absurd to say in 2020, and is even more absurd to say in 2024. Why people continue to pretend that Donald Trump is not an incredibly powerful electoral juggernaut is beyond me. Maybe you have to believe it, but I believe the numbers.

There’s a segment of the left that is just traditional male chauvinism but couched in left-wing aesthetics as camouflage, and it’s really easy to spot.

So I think the strait of hormuz stuff will probably get a little bit worse, but it's feeling a lot like the aftermath of the tariffs where everybody's like, no no, just wait like three more months, it's totally gonna happen, the end nigh, etc.

The way these folks talk about the mods they clearly consider the mods to be some kind of civl servant who’s obligated to deal with them

I wonder what this dog looks like. It could be anything. This dog could look like anything, I simply can't guess from the article. I'll just have to keep wondering what this dog looks like. pugetpress.com/2026/05/07/t...

I don't understand the logic here, other than 'we should be allowed to harass the people who operate this free platform and they shouldn't be allowed to do or say anything about it'

Spanberger and the Democratic VA trifecta should simply ignore this ruling. Idgaf anymore

I was absolutely plastered drunk, which I'm usually not anymore, when I wrote this, but looking at it, I think if it's not correct in terms of what it says about the report, I am correct in terms of what it should say

So uhhh those British election results

I have such unjustifiably positive memories about those old Burger King commercials with the burger king in them

It might turn out that the ray gunn movie is really good, but usually when creative people finally get the opportunity to make their dream project. It's fucking boring and it sucks.

I'm still waiting for him to send everybody in America a $700 bill, I think it would be really funny. Go to pay back those fucking checks

She really was an interesting lady 🤔
