Spiro Agnew died 20 miles from my house. It's not germane to the current situation, it's just a thing I like to think about now and then.

jd vance will be the first catholic in history whose divorce the pope will bless

Hey, does Andy Ogles know that T***p was found liable for sexual assault in a court of law, or nah?

2026 Me finding the strength and science to get one single, solitary message through to Teenage Me in 1995: "You're rooting for the Pope."

Loved this week's episode of The Pitt.

Telling my kids this is the cast of Chicago Med

This is why the "Canadians are a peace-loving ppl we would NEVER" lady baffled me the other day. I remember Carney getting elected. He wasn't expected to. Y'all were staring down the barrel of your own T***p & then the US took "if you can't be good, be a warning" to heart. You're welcome, 🇨🇦, ilu.💕

Anyhow. Tired of screaming into the void when all anyone wants to do anyhow is blame, not think and solve, so here's a disgruntled bell pepper I ate several years ago.

As a victim of the “real” type of sexual assault, I need other SA victims to know that we are just rhetorical devices to most people like this op-ed writer. They find reasons to blame or dismiss us too.

Has anyone bothered looking at the age brackets, no, just me, okay good talk. (It's a shit chart. Jumping from ~5 year sets to ~20 years? Why?)

Couple things here: 1> Y'all sleep on GenX being an overly broad category. And you move the goalposts on it whenever you feel like it, which is weird. Older GenX is Alex P. Keaton. Younger GenX is Jay & Silent Bob. -->

Oh my what a Schlapp in the face this is

CHILDREN 👏🏽 ARE 👏🏽 NOT 👏🏽 ADULTS I am 1005% against charging minors as adults. No, I do not have any exceptions to this opinion. No, not even whatever ridiculous thing you think I surely haven't thought of. I have.

I understand the intuition that subjecting older teenagers to adult-level punishments will reduce crime, but this has been studied and THE OPPOSITE IS TRUE. Involving them in the adult system INCREASES RECIDIVISM. Pirro is taking a soft-on-crime position here.

So just to check the till: Works in Nevada Works in Missouri But from Arkansas Sure, Jan.

They're fumbling the ball the last few days in a way they've largely avoided til now, at least at scale. Just frantically shooting themselves in the dick all day every day all of a sudden. It's weird.

Vance admits that Trump’s blockade is an act of economic terrorism against the entire world.

Best pipe down, Butterface.

The message left by Pope Leo XIV in the guestbook of the Great Mosque of Algiers: “May the mercy of the Most High keep the noble Algerian people and the entire human family in peace and freedom.”

If we held a minute of silence for every victim of the Holocaust, we would be silent for eleven and a half years. On Yom HaShoah, Israel’s Holocaust Remembrance Day, we remember the 6 million Jewish lives that were stolen during the Nazi regime, along with millions of others.

They can carry their phones in, too, so that they can take a picture of the food on the desk to confirm the delivery

All dc door dashers are cleared up to TS and have unescorted access in the White House and OEOB, it’s a normal thing

Median survival went from 6 months to 13 months. It may not sound like much, but for metastatic pancreatic cancer, this is big, IMO. We finally have something solid to build on in this field.

Hey, what's a few million more COVID deaths and another SCOTUS justice or two really, amirite?

I know how many people in my community are accessing food pantries, fundraising to pay utility costs, and looking for work. Hands-on numbers and knowledge. And I know the same for my former communities, in very different states. I don't think Will can say the same.

Two things here: 1> people experiencing financial strain who are not usually in that position generally won't admit their own struggles 2> "most people" of a specific demographic, this may be valid. Giving the impression that "most" people are doing well financially is not correct

No one thinks Trump supporters are stupid more than Trump himself.

of all the complaints i will never take seriously, complaints about tipping on touchscreen checkout tablets is one that i take least seriously. you are an adult with agency, the decision to tip or not on your take and go sandwich is one that is solely yours to make

Complaining about being prompted to tip is both whiny prattle and vice-signaling. Just don't tip and keep it to yourself instead of trying to seek solace in the miserliness of others. Republican-ass behavior.

"He went public, I just responded." This mf'er's defense is "the Pope started it."

I JUST HEARD THIS LIVE AND MY JAW DISLOCATED.

lol is this chud running for CA gov really promising $3 gas if they elect him?

Moony McMoonface

it'll be back in three days

I rather think an aide deleted it but sure.

I would listen to a band called Hot Sauce On The Moon, fwiw.

Peter Magyar confirmed that Szijjarto, Orbán's FM, has barricaded himself with some of his closest colleagues and is shredding documents related to the sanctions on Russia any other evidence of treason.

"Russiagate" isn't a "hoax" in other countries

But doctor--I AM the friend who plays trombone.

WHAT APPEARED TO BE AN AI-GENERATED IMAGE I thought it was a photograph. What are you getting at, New York Times?

I really hate how fucking frequently US news media uses "feud" as a descriptor for Trumps attacks on others, implying a mutuality that isnt actually there. The Pope isnt in a "feud" w Trump. He is speaking out against war & for peace, as all Popes do. Trump has decided to take that personally.

Is the Popa a Catholic? In this Ohio diner, they aren’t so sure.

The Pope is weak on crime. The Dalai Lama has no ideas for growing GDP. The Archbishop of Canterbury has failed on municipal parking reform. The Patriarch of Constantinople must act to address the biodiversity crisis

The flowers and other leaves had died on my plant and now it just looks like I’m growing a baby chikorita

I forgot the word “tourniquet” so I called it a first aid scrunchie.

It's the 7th month of the US bombing random ships in Latin American waters they claim are drug smugglers (reminder that two survivors who were rescued were repatriated, not charged), and the death toll is 150+, and it barely gets discussed.

I am pretty sure that if a Democratic US President was in office, lashing out at the supreme pontiff, and blasphemously depicting himself as the savior, the headlines would describe this papal response as defending the church and not “hitting back.”

I thought they'd semi-lost control/oversight of him but now I'm starting to think they're deliberately letting him go ham to get rid of him.

certainly this is the first time an imperious madman has tried to fight the Roman Church
