“People used to dress up to go to the airport” yes and airplanes used to serve real food while you sat on a comfortable seat

Because they can't read 😭😭😭

medical miracle: this 75 year old man was born yesterday

Or any book

Yeah let's see AI take my job. Let's see chat gpt crack the perfectly timed joke in the zoom meeting. Let's see it brighten everyone's Monday. Get outta here

BREAKING: How the Trump administration will determine the “right” voters

Yes that. And bonus points for the well-deserved Klingon insult.

"wages have been flat for decades" is an extremely simple, obviously true concept that explains about 80% of all handwringing op-eds and for some reason they just won't say that

It is disorienting to hear the phrase "reform the mass deportation effort"

My "Fukushima's radioactive hybrid terror pig boom was driven by amorous mothers" teeshirt is raising a lot of questions, but mostly just "where can I also get a teeshirt like that, that's dope"

The year is 2015. China is getting richer and more powerful every year, but America has three trump cards: universitities, biomedical research, and immigration.

come on CA voters

BULLYING WORKS!

I'm not familiar with the whole predication-market thing. How do I check the odds that Fuentes ends up on Gavin Newsom's podcast and that Newsom gives these statements some barely-half-hearted pushback?

Over on threads someone just use ai;dr and we all need to adopt that right quick

what the fuck is she talking about

We’ve all had days where we’ve woken up, forgotten to brush our teeth, and closed all El Paso airspace for an hour instead.

Age verification? I have pulled out a disk, flipped it over and re-inserted it when leaving the Brittania overworld to enter a town.

sigh

Welcome to our weekly game, Violent Atrocities or Gross Incompetence? in which we try to decode minimally informative breaking news without scaring the chickens

What if we had an entire foreign policy based on the petty resentments and insecurities of mediocre weak men?

they said it couldn't be done, folks, big strong men with tears in their eyes, they came up to me and said "no president could completely wreck an entire united states economy twice", they said "no one's ever put more people out of work than you"

More of a culture police action

Dayum!

Drag him. No matter how callous or self-deluded he might be, every time you force a thought like this on a person, it plants a seed. Even if it all it does is cause him some internal discomfort, good. It should be happening with far greater regularity.

hang on. wait up. you mean Bad Bunny performing in a capitalist American football event does NOT mean he is starting the socialist revolution? You mean a pop star has NOT managed to abolish ICE from the NFL stage? fuck!!!!!!!!!!!

have never seen popular public opinion shift so fast about a surveillance product than the fallout from ring's super bowl "search party" ad. they'll teach this in advertising courses one day. chef's kiss baby www.404media.co/with-ring-am...

I just imagine Schumer dictating this post. "'Our demands are reasonable.' No, no, scratch that. Put 'exceedingly.' 'Exceedingly reasonable.' That's the energy this moment demands."

No, Chuck, you’re making them the fifth highest paid military in the world. You ain’t reforming shit.

Happy #Lawyercat Anniversary for all who celebrate! It's been four years since the kitten appeared in my Zoom courtroom, and I released the 48 second video that made the whole world laugh. Here is the full video showing the big reveal at the end (in two parts because Blue sky). Enjoy!

This kind of smart, walkable, mixed-use urbanism is illegal to build in most American cities.

you love to see it

Like a full 30% of the current US was Mexican territory until the mid-nineteenth century, that culture and heritage and language didn’t up and vanish after the Alamo or whatever, acting like Spanish isn’t a huge part of the American tapestry is super short-sighted and ahistorical

The way Bad Bunny set up his halftime show, the best place to see it from was the worst seats in the stadium, all the way at the top. The richest and most powerful people in the lowest seats had almost no view at all.

Did not watch halftime show, am hearing Bad Bunny married all of us to him through the tv? Woke is too much now I fear

I tell you what, Ring figured out exactly how to weaponize white people’s empathy in service to a corporately controlled surveillance state. Tell them it will find your dog.

Benito is a threat b/c he makes art so alluring and enjoyable you want to understand everything about it and then you end up learning about sugar and slavery and colonialism and the Taínos and Hawaii and then you probably have some thoughts of your own, and that's why art is powerful and dangerous

When you’re offended by “love is more powerful than hate.”

We keep us safe, not creepy networked surveillance systems

fuck this Ring commercial hiding fascism behind dogs

You had 4 months to learn Spanish, not his fault you couldn't understand him.

So uh Ring just up and said they've got a huge centralized private surveillance network they can leverage all at once huh
