lol this cop pissed himself

And people wonder why I will never go into the US again.

dear US friends, when a sitting president (re)builds the seat of government, it almost always means the president has no intention of leaving at the end of term. your African friends with decades of experience

Ugh. Told a coworker to “old yeller” me out back and they digitized, remastered and restored me.

Carney: "We can't control the trade policy of the US. We recognize it has fundamentally changed from the policy in the 1980s, 1990s, 2000s, & it's a situation where US has tariffs against every trading partner... what we we can control is developing new partnerships, including w/econ giants of Asia"

Carney: Up until now, more than 70 cents of every dollar of military capital spending by our government has gone to the United States. With our new Defense Investment Agency, we’ll make sure we build more of our security and defense capabilities here at home

Need people to understand the difference between "this is a social construct" and "this is not real"

34 people killed in 50 days. Their guilt or innocence unknown, for an alleged crime that doesn't carry a death sentence. That's a lot of death. adamisacson.com/boat-strikes/

Mike Johnson has not heard anything about the entire East Wing being demolished and cannot speak to that.

As a Senate candidate, Fetterman guaranteed voters he’d be a reliable Dem, not another Manchin or Sinema. Constantly. It was his core promise to primary voters. Liar.

It’s morning of a weekday. Children were there

Mamdani is already getting the criminals out of NYC!

The whole point of democracy is so one person's derangement does not become everybody's problem. It's social hygiene. The fact the richest men in the West are a mix of grotty twelve year olds and deranged apocalypse fanatics is a problem, and we should be honest about it.

Katy Perry Releases New Single About Superiority Of Canadian Manufacturing

brb dropping everything to math out "how long of a work trip with Jesus would you have to take to afford a 3yo's blueberry budget"

Proposing marriage to someone in front of a crowd is coercion and a “yes” is not freely given consent.

I'll say it: I think its rly annoying and frankly amateurish that writers are constantly told their villains must be understandable or have sympathetic motivation to be interesting or realistic when all our big villains irl are in fact rich, stupid, selfish, trickster dillweeds and always have been

people playing music/videos on their phone speakers in public is more than just mildly annoying and is instead a leading indicator of the decline of community and empath

Everybody: please stop mentioning that Farage was regularly on Russia Today, a channel now banned for its Russian propaganda content, blamed the EU for Russia's invasion of Ukraine in 2014, had a Russian spy running his Welsh operation, and built his whole career on a policy Putin supports.

Far too many Bluesky users are convinced, in the absence of evidence, that cops will save them from ICE

I see screen caps like this and the novelty of how in-sync Jerry and I are on the AcqInc stage never fails to amaze me. Lockstep.

I don't think folks have any conception of how radicalized a lot of moms are becoming as they go through shit like "will my babysitter get kidnapped" and "will my child be able to get the measles vaccine"

2000 years of resisting well-seasoned food

"Conservative Leader Pierre Poilievre is saying some communities have become 'war zones'" Does he get e-mails with instructions from the Trump White House? Or does he just read what they say and then adopt it as his own?

good blog

Advice for new BlueSky users: This place is a message and part of a system of messages. Sending this message was important to us. We considered ourselves to be a powerful culture. This place is not a place of honor. No highly esteemed deed is commemorated here. Nothing valued is here.

Drives me bananapants that I'm going to end up in an autism camp or whatever for not being properly sad about Charlie Kirk on Bluesky and this chodeload is out there defending Hitler Adults.

On the record, I think sneering at these people that they’re somehow *bad* because they stayed on Twitter for this long is incredibly counterproductive it’s great that more people have escaped the Mussolini Piss Hole and come to Bluesky actually, their numbers shall strengthen us

This is real. Chicago today.

I think the leak of the incredibly racist young republican group chat only furthers the argument that millennials were the only generation able to use the computer without going insane, mostly because the computer was once a place separate from the real world. but now the real world is also computer

Gen-x exceptionalism needs to be studied by anthropologists. "We remember the lyrics to the songs of our youth" has to be the least extraordinary claim anyone can make.

Rest in peace, Drew Struzan. His movie posters are much more than marketing. They're some of the finest pop art you'll ever see. Look at this masterpiece:

"That's not what 'begging the question' means! I inexplicably have more than one friend despite my personality!"

www.cnn.com/2025/10/13/b... There’s something sinister going on here, other than victim blaming. This is normalizing portraying Canada as the enemy. CNN is carrying Trump’s water. If gullible, complacent Americans see Canada as a hostile nation, it’s OK for the US to punish & annex. #ElbowsUp

Boo hoo. Poor American businesses are being hurt exactly as intended. Instead of crying at Canadians and describing our feelings as "bruised," maybe talk to your politicians who caused this. Boo hoo www.cnn.com/2025/10/13/b...

bitch what

Who do Canadians regard as an “enemy”? This comes from a new Angus Reid report on India, but get a look at the redder end of that list (Red = enemy/threat; pink = maybe so)

So it’s Thanksgiving Day in Canada and this is your reminder it is not “Canadian Thanksgiving.” WE STARTED THANKSGIVING. Like most good things, Americans stole the idea off us. It began in 1578 as a harvest celebration. It was an official holiday in 1879. It remains a harvest celebration.

Pope Leo quotes Hannah Arendt: “The ideal subject of totalitarian rule is not the convinced Nazi or the convinced Communist, but people for whom the distinction between fact and fiction and the distinction between true and false no longer exist." www.cbsnews.com/chicago/news...

Every time someone makes me read something Peter Thiel said it’s like “Scrooge McDuck is Jesus Christ and Huey, Dewey, and Louie are Gabriel, Raphael, and Uriel and Daisy is Mary Magdalene and that’s why women voting has lowered American sperm count.”

STEPHANOPOULOS: I didn't insinuate anything. I asked you whether Tom Homan accepted $50k as was heard on an audio tape recorded by the FBI in September 2024. You did not answer the question. Thank you for your time. VANCE: No, George, I sai-- STEPHANOPOULOS: We'll be right back

this is by far the worst reading of Alan Moore’s Watchmen I’ve ever seen and if you spend an appreciable amount of time online you will know what a crowning achievement that is

I know there are people who are going to roll their eyes at this Those people are stupid. Every tool should be on the table and this is a very specifically powerful one for a lot of folks

For any Catholic, the sight of a Eucharistic Procession being turned away at the gates of the destination is the embodiment of Jesus being denied entrance. You don't have to be Catholic to get the symbolism in that!

Cartoon by John Deering.

It simply should not be possible for the president to repeatedly claim that a major city is burning without a wall of live standups happening in that city clearly demonstrating that it is not
