I told myself I was gonna clear the bookshelf of one long ass book this year and team, it took me 4 months but I finished DON QUIXOTE.

Bold t-shirt choice, Culinary Institute of America

This is what happens when there's historically low trust in the Presidents of the United States of America

What a crooked shithole this country has become. Utterly corrupt.

US universities genuinely are like “welcome to Tennessee Agricultural College in Bumfuck Nowheresville. We invented the modern potato and our facilities include a particle accelerator, nuclear reactor, and TOP500 supercomputer. Tuition is $12,000 for instate students and we have 40,000 of them”

Many people have a vested interest in pretending otherwise, but the US research university is globally dominant to an almost unbelievable degree. The typical state university is a football team stapled to a R&D lab with a budget bigger than the entire nation of Belgium.

RIP Jason Collins

"you have to write stories about the robots being nice" hey all those stories about the subservient robot with no needs of her own suddenly getting a bunch of political ideas and being disobedient, hm, maybe wanting her own bank account. do we think that sounds like something that happened recently?

the west wing is less realistic than battlestar galactica NEXT QUESTION

frankly I have come to believe techies are illiterate. science fiction isn't about the future, stupid. it's about the current political situation but set in space so no one gets mad. duh!

New life goal

I get great entertainment value from Mark Cuban types wandering outside the biggest bubble ever (the entirety of U.S. hustlebro corporatist media), stepping into a room full of academics, artists and weirdos forced to flee billionaire-owned platforms, and immediately whining about bubbles

The largest ever settlement or jury award for government violations of constitutional rights to a single person is $100 million, or 1 percent of what Trump demanding for the leak of his tax returns. That case -- a killing by police -- was reduced to $1 million on appeal.

Shaq's gas math had reached the youths

Yep. This is the best way to understand the events of the past couple weeks. They have to dispense with the artifice of principle, because the risks of Dems winning and coming to power bent on accountability are simply too great. www.offmessage.net/p/republican...

If went on a date with the alien from "Species" I would just be kind and present, personally. But I guess not everyone agrees

This is psychotic shit

Dems once again choosing Respect For Process over victory.

The last "she KNOWS it's a multi pass" absolutely kills me.

U.S. Supreme Court Justice Samuel Alito leaned on an erroneous claim that Black voter turnout now tops white voter turnout, in his Callais v. Louisiana ruling that gutted the Voting Rights Act, reports The Guardian. www.democracydocket.com/news-alerts/...

Holy shit they booted him

had a debate last night about the definitive millennial song. some contenders: mgmt’s “kids,” yeah yeah yeah’s “maps,” kanye’s “all of the lights,” arcade fire’s “wake up,” postal service’s “such great heights,” animal collective’s “my girls,” lcd soundsystem’s “all my friends,” stroke’s “last nite”

The American Heart Association just posted this and tbh, I LOLed.

My "this is not a golden calf" t-shirt is raising questions &c. www.independent.co.uk/news/world/a...

Watching my wife sign our 3 kids up for whatever and then me for over 30 basketball all within 60 seconds because at 90 seconds they were all booked up was like watching Neo in The Matrix.

James Harden tonight: 3-13 FG (0-4 3P), 10 points, 4 turnovers, -15 +/- in 36 minutes. Woof.

I've decided this guy is my new favorite Law & Order prosecutor. Constant "they can do that?" face. Got that aw shucks not again energy. Always taking Ls. Would definitely resort to vigilante justice if he was prosecuting a family member's murder.

Unearthed reports reveal that RFK Jr. fired every full-time CDC cruise ship sanitation inspector ahead of the Hantavirus cruise ship outbreak. www.cbsnews.com/news/cdc-cru...

Breaking: Tennessee Republicans pass new 9-0 gerrymander after SCOTUS destruction of Voting Rights Act eliminating state’s only majority-Black district & last Democratic seat. Splits Memphis, which is 63% Black, into 3 districts to disenfranchise Black voters. Quite literally a return to Jim Crow

Credit where it's due: We lost to Iran in a fraction of the time it took us to lose in Afghanistan, Iraq or Vietnam. A relatively small amount of treasure was wasted and comparatively few Americans died for nothing at all.

Terriers rise up! goterriers.com/news/2026/5/...

I feel like “it’s absolute horses” should refer equally to something good or something bad with its meaning imparted solely through a persons delivery of the line

6 weeks after surgery and much longer since I worked legs so I evvver so gently did leg day yesterday. Barrrrrely any resistance. Today I will feel: a) maybe a little sore, you knew your limits b) you tried to cheat the Grim Reaper, he's coming to kill you with a Final Destination style death

“We are the luckiest bastards alive,” he says of living in Marblehead. “We can’t also be the most self-interested bastards alive. They can’t be the same thing.” www.marbleheadindependent.com/he-asked-if-...

On its third attempt tonight, Marblehead Town Meeting approved an “MBTA Communities–compliant” district largely centered on the 125-year-old Tedesco Country Club, meeting 3A requirements on paper while all but assuring no new housing would be built. This comment says it all.

Such a Knicks thing to do coming out of a timeout up 6 with 2 minutes left, chance to really extend the lead, and they fumble it at the logo.

Okay this is funny

Did I just see the writer/performer of "What the fuck is happening here?" - one of the greatest songs of all-time - in a CarMax commercial? youtube.com/shorts/_MAXl...

Man shut up and enjoy yourself. You attained your life goal and nobody can do anything about it. Nobody believes you so just shut the fuck up. www.nbcnews.com/politics/sup...

The loudest boos of the night go to Andre Drummond, who could not dislodge a basketball from the top of the backboard. The loudest cheers of the night go to Karl-Anthony Towns, who could.

Rutgers School of Engineering canceled a commencement speech by Rami Elghandour—an alum and executive producer of an Oscar-nominated film about Hind Rajab, a Palestinian child killed by Israel—because "some" students complained: www.theguardian.com/us-news/2026... His response (via X):
