the president loves stealing your money and giving it to pedophiles, folks. it’s like his favorite thing to do

the Democrats should announce that they will prosecute anyone who accepts a single fucking dime Trump stole

The Trump administration will not rest until every elite institution has purged itself of black people. ballsandstrikes.org/law-politics...

As a regular curmudgeon who views a university as being a college of faculty rather than a service provider for students... They are right to view graduation as a day for them, which belongs to them. It is their rite of passage. It does not belong to invited speakers or university leadership.

Musk v Altman JUDGE: The jury has sent a question and the answer is no, the death penalty is not "available for both sides" please return to the jury room and limit your consideration to civil damages.

gotta say, I don’t feel any form of “solidarity” towards unions that endorse republicans

Maybe something beautiful will happen

Cassidy voted to convict Trump, and good for him, but I shed no tears for the career of a doctor who voted to put that dangerous loon in charge of HHS.

Bellyflop contest at the 9/11 memorial

We need to disband the SEALs.

To be clear, this is where drunken Kash Patel pulled strings to go take a recreation dive at. You're not even supposed to wear a swimsuit at the memorial.

Old MacDonald is dying and the new struggles to be born. Now is the time of monsters, e-i-e-i-oh

If the T is so crammed the conductor needs to keep people off it maybe MBTA should send more trains. I'm available as a consultant at a competitive rate if you need it @wutrain.bsky.social

remember: his hands look like this so the gas pump can look like this

This, combined with "vice signaling" (taking pride in antisocial behavior) has given us the reign of the Stupid Asshole, something most people are against, but can only be remedied if we're not too polite to talk about it

Published in The New England Journal of Medicine. Peer-reviewed. Large sample size. Sound methodology. An antiviral pill has, for the first time, been shown to prevent COVID-19 in individuals exposed to SARS-CoV-2. Ensitrelvir blocks the enzyme coronaviruses need to make new copies of themselves.

It's actually a bad point. What she tried to do was end democracy. She should be in a cell for life at the very least.

A very good afternoon to the absolute hero who organised and parked this beauty in the middle of little Tommy’s far-right hate march. ❤️

Colorado Democrats are only one vote short of two thirds in the state senate, and if you can’t flip at least one Republican who’d do it just for the lulz you’re not trying.

MR stop having on wreckers challenge: difficulty impossible

On the left is an Onion headline from March. On the right is Reuters, today.

A surprising amount of what made the USA a functional country was put into place during the very brief period where white southerners didn't have the ability to veto it

Imagining Nolan coming out and saying this is specifically based on Emily Wilson's translation just for fun

Me: I'm on board with the Pope with respect to capital punishment but there's a pretty clear exception here for people who so subvert the justice system with their crimes that they are insufficiently restrained by mere incarceration. MAGA: subverts the justice system with their crimes. Me: ah

There shouldn't be any handwringing about this. These pardons are simply invalid. All the recipients can return to prison. If they resist, deadly force should be authorized to compel them.

The next president needs to take her shot and declare all corrupt Trump pardons invalid, and re-imprison all of them. There has been more abuse of the pardon power in 4 months than in 200 years. We're not losing anything by either destroying it or fully enabling it.

At the very least this woman needs to go back to jail when all is said and done.

in a way, isn’t causing men to crash out before she’s even done anything just proof that Lupita is perfect for Helen of Troy

congrats to Elon on negatively polarizing me into seeing what I've assumed would be a pretty mid movie.

It doesn’t do to get het up in advance, but it’s an indication of DEEP SPIRITUAL DISEASE that the patriotic song sung in American Catholic churches on/around Independence Day is rarely, if ever, the Battle Hymn of the Republic

this is, i think, the single most important thing to understand about donald trump and his boyars in this second admin; the whole administration is engaged in total culture war against the very idea of principles and dignity and virtue, it’s the most crudely cynical administration in US history

Trump is going to be presiding over a UFC fight next to the wreckage of the East Wing as gas hits like $7/gal.

He VRA is DEI is always where this was heading!

OMG the DOJ lawyer just said presidential power has never been "circumcised." He was trying to say "circumscribed."

nah, if you look at the LIRR demands they are extremely unreasonable: they want to get paid double just because they touch a diesel and an electric train in a shift. that’s not how it works anywhere else, including metro north

Rewatching 30 Rock and I think this is still possibly one of the best constructed jokes in anything, ever.

Personally I think Jonathan Haidt should be exposed to the challenging perspective that Jonathan Haidt sucks

Catholics will say that the St. Mary SCOTUS case is about whether schools can limit admissions to parents affirming their Catholic mission. But this isn't true. It's about whether they can discriminate against kids because of their family structure. This came out at trial...

First the Saudis had a McDonald's following this guy around, now China has him greeted by underage teens. The world knows what he likes.

One of my favorite dad sayings: “Oh you assume? You know what happens when you assume?” “What?” “You make a reasonable guess based on the evidence you have but sometimes it’s not enough.” The best part is that only my wife knows the other dad saying I’m subverting.

Let this radicalize you

A 10-year-old wrote MAGA Congresswoman Virginia Foxx for a school project. He chose to write about an electric vehicle tax credit. He thought it was good for the environment. Virginia responded by attacking him and his teacher for being propagandized. These people have power over your life.

If his job was to represent the rest of South Carolina, he would be Senator Clyburn.

Has anyone noticed that all the people who were going “Y’all. You do NOT fuck with shipping. Pirates are freakin’ hostis humani generis.” last year when the Houthis were doing their thing has spent this entire war going “Masterful gambit Mr. President!”

The central reason that trust in health professionals dropped during covid is that the president intentionally and explicitly used doctors as scapegoats for the economic damage the pandemic caused. What irritated overly online center-right pundits is a smaller factor.

AMERICANS ARE WORKING MORE HOURS TO HANDLE RISING GAS & FOOD COSTS, BUT THEIR PAYCHECKS ARE STILL LOSING VALUE DUE TO INFLATION AFTER ADJUSTING FOR INFLATION, AVERAGE WEEKLY INCOME FELL IN APRIL DESPITE PEOPLE WORKING EXTRA HOURS REAL WEEKLY PAY: • ALL WORKERS: DOWN 0.2% • REGULAR WORKERS: DOWN 0.3%
