It’s funny but we gotta get serious about the hitler “youth” movement that this is meant to mobilize longterm

like don't get me wrong, this is Good, I do not want to roll the dice on the Cool Zone at this time, but it's a full if tacit admission that even they know Trump is cooked

wow so it really took less than a year to sink dreams of a third Trump term huh www.latimes.com/politics/sto...

you, an idiot: we should have universal health care me, a TV genius: the average american is going to lose 400 pounds next year

Because she reported the truth.

a realization you have pretty quickly as a trans person is that nobody likes being in the bathroom and that everyone is trying their hardest not to notice the other people in there

Hello repro writers from the mid to late 20 teens - I just discovered Cosmopolitan at some point pulled almost every politics/repro story from the 5 years I wrote for them offline (except two, which they put under someone else's name and gave me "additional reporting" which it very much was not)

Genuinely this is a thought I've had a number of times, how absolutely fucking gone do you have to be that the VAST PLETHORA OF PORNOGRAPHY AND OTHER MATERIALS AVAILABLE ONLINE are, uh, insufficient

another day subjecting myself to the Torment Nexus. everyone keeps asking me if they can fuck the Malware Siren. buddy, they wont even let me fuck it.

the last three Most Disturbing Ads I’ve Ever Seen have all been CandyAI. really keep raising the bar on themselves

it's a theory the same way that gravity is a theory

i'd ask if philly sports fans are okay but the sheer speed with which my feed is refreshing with new posts tells me they are in fact not

i think we should file motions to impeach every week until the gop loses the house and then twice as much until we get the senate back

as someone who absolutely hates cardio this is unfortunately true lifting heavy things (fun, cool): good for you, which rocks doing cardio (miserable, sucks): also good for you, which is bullshit

Donald Trump’s cuts to USAID have resulted in 600,000 deaths worldwide wide. But my liberal neighbor named his son Che. I have never felt more politically homeless.

The overwhelming impression after reading a lot of WWII resistance memoirs is just how miserable it was to work in these networks. It’s not Inglorious Basterds. It’s watching everyone you know & their families get caught, tortured, run against you as doubles & then executed. Over and over again.

Once you decide there's nothing bad enough the president can do to warrant impeachment you're kind of done. You're relegated to holding a bunch of hearings which is a PR battle for the subsequent election, but in the meantime you're stuck with a criminal president

"Jeffersonian Kulakism" is a phrase now in my head forever, I fear

Historians: Quibbling Over Exact Definition Of Concentration Camp Sign Of Healthy Society https://theonion.com/historians-quibbling-over-exact-definition-of-concentration-camp-sign-of-healthy-society/

and as several of us have said multiple times, Bukele needs to Go Through Some Things

whatever 2026 holds i don't think anything next year will be funnier than Chicago Pope. 2025 was overall a huge stinker but Chicago Pope was an all time great B-plot

Abrego Garcia does not go a single day without demonstrating how genuinely American he is lol

Buttons are back. Knobs are back. Dumb devices are back. Own-it-forever software is back. Print is back. Personal websites and chronological feeds are back. Touching grass is back. People keep saying 2015, but it’s not far enough. The entire 2010s were a mistake. We must retvrn to… 2009.

Good! An early insight of human centered design is that it was possible to reduce airplane crashes by introducing tactile switches and toggle that did not create confusion or require people to take their eyes away from their core tasks donmoynihan.substack.com/p/the-origin...

A fun and cool Constitutional reform we should do but never would is an Amendment making corruptly buying a pardon from a President is a capital offense and any and all appeals arising from those matters are explicitly excluded from SCOTUS's jurisdiction

The guy who put a 19 year old named Big Balls in charge of gutting key government services: “experience matters when lives are at stake”

the 'ICE being pelted with snowballs' thing is fake, sorry guys

Seems like a great way to force a court to rule on the illegal name change.

"You're obligated to perform for us, talk to us, engage with us, and like us and otherwise deal with us despite us being a bunch of incredibly evil Nazi shitweasels" is, as always, the underlying actual goal of the 'free speech' right and should be treated as such at all times

This is the logical and inevitable conclusion of the last decade of elite media "free speech" discourse.

Imagine it being easier to just pay the 8 billion dollars and it won't affect you in the slightest. Man what have we done lol

“Vivaldi CEO Jon von Tetzchner accused other companies like Google and Microsoft of ‘reshaping the address bar into an assistant prompt, turning the joy of exploring into inactive spectatorship.’” Well, Vivaldi. You had my interest; now you have my attention

Thaddeus Stevens wanted radical Reconstruction because he believed in the equality of men before their creator. Hannibal Hamlin wanted radical Reconstruction because he was a fierce partisan who wanted to liquidate the Southern Democrat. Heroes, both of them, though we hold Stevens in higher regard.

I think we should simply ignore the Supreme Court on this and consider prosecuting them for seditious conspiracy if they don't get in line.

This is not to say INS was like cool and woke btw, just that ICE wildly upped the aggression and show of force. We did not get here in one year.

The median INS agent did not carry a weapon on their person. The median ICE officer carries both a long and short gun. They were heavily militarized based on an absurd premise that Al Qaeda was going to "invade America" in meaningful numbers for the actual reason of disciplining labor

another robot highlight for 2025: man wearing humanoid mocap suit kicks himself in the balls

I literally have no idea how any British person affords housing. Just feels like a situation where the numbers don't come close to adding up for basically anyone

The rule for any Stancil discourse should be we all get our takes out in one day and then we move on.

There should be consequences for ICE agents breaking the law

yes. because what MAGA extremists believe and advocate is fundamentally unamerican. not conservative. not even reactionary. unamerican. these are foreign ideas that failed at enormous human cost within living memory. these are not serious people. they are maladjusted wreckers. symptomatic.

Happy 14th anniversary to this youtube video

oh hey the world's least surprising thing happened again once again: abolishing ICE and prosecuting the leaders is the *compromise* position

We found the official GoFundMe, and then their website transhousingcoalition.org and found them on GuideStar with an EIN and an address. We reached out to verify with them the account in question. They stated that the account is a fraud, and they've been trying to get it taken down for years. 🧵

There is ongoing scam happening posing as a black trans safe house in Texas. The fake org is "Black Trans Texas Connection." There is an IG page @blacktransscam that verifies its nonexistence by checking w local orgs in its supposed operating city of Houston. 👇

Multiple people have sent me this like "this u" but they've all put the dot that's supposed to be me in a different place, and I think that's beautiful.

i am not going to pretend there’s a debate about what heritage american means. there is not. the debate over whether there’s a debate is a means of infiltration and normalization. if we are going to debate this then we must also debate if 2 and 2 make 5. it’s no less obviously stupid and malignant.

“the president seems to be using the doj to hide his years of involvement with the most notorious child sex trafficking ring in world history” feels like a story worth reporting on

This month's 11th Hour column in the print New Republic is about Trump's threatened sale of the Wilbur J. Cohen Federal Building, the "Sistine Chapel of the New Deal." We have since learned Trump is preparing to bypass the GSA and demolish it before sale. Please spread the word.
