from white house to groverhaus

Trump has successfully negotiated an agreement to negotiate. Big win for President Deals.

The Netflix Ethos (TM) is what if we capture the energy of a mid-tier network show that you didn't know ran for seven seasons and spend 300 billion dollars on it.

The Strait of Hormuz is open and all the ship captains are having a wonderful time!

Quintessential Trump: In 2025, Trump axed the program to combat New World Screwworm, stating that they had "saved" $1.5 million a year. In 2026, the Trump announces a $1 billion emergency program to combat the Screwworm outbreak. $1 billion would have funded the old program for 667 years.

The OpebAI financials are even worse than I was expecting, somehow. Hockey stick growth is supposed to be for revenue, not expenses.

I must not die. Dying is the me killer

Post your controversial classical Chinese literature takes.

Trump looks like he's in the middle frames of animorphing into a furby

Tonight, should Allah will it, his aim will not falter.

Musk functionally ran the US government for 6 months last year and managed to: increase spending, slash services, kill 100,000s, and help nurture both Ebola & Screwworms. Yet somehow no one mentions this when they talk about the company he is going to take public this week.

It's cool how no matter how low Trump's approval gets, the story always quotes someone in Boogerfuck Indiana who loves him. You never hear from the growing majority of people who hate his guts for some reason, I guess they're just not interesting

imagine being mad at me and I’m just over here like, “Yeah, you’re right, my bad.”

This is just what it's like being on the internet in 2026.

Instead of a smoothie, how about a roughiie? A glass of food you choke down whole?

this is what Wolverine *should* look like but society is too afraid of the consequences

It's hard for me to read this as anything but OpenAI making it's bid for Too Big To Fail status in advance of its ponzi scheme collapsing. www.ft.com/content/8559...

Yeah, coal employs like 40,000 people in the US. Kohl's, a past prime mid grade department store shambling towards bankruptcy, is somewhere around twice that.

the platner phenomenon is fascism colonizing the men who think theyre farther left than the democratic party

assaulting a woman is a minor vice, scolding a man is unforgivable

"Goku vould have been just as lethally predisposed, were it not for a traumatic head injury in his infancy." "What's your point, Doctor?" "Kakarot's murderous nature was mercifully taken from him. Vegeta overcame his by will alone. Yet you see him as the villain."

What is "positive masculinity"? What is the act of inscribing a legible difference that will allow us to continue placing men above women while being perhaps less gauche, less supremacist, less extremist? There is no such thing. It's a pyrrhic endeavour. The inscribing is the violence.

“According to the Bureau of Labor Statistics (6), food prices in the U.S. have increased 33.3% since the beginning of 2020, while housing costs are up 32.5% (7). Energy prices, meanwhile, have surged 48% (8) over that period.” Fuck the economy gaslighters claiming we just dont understand gdp

I keep also thinking about how the worst part of Platner isn't him and how he might vote, it's what defending and championing him will do to everyone else. I am seeing people embrace tactics that are awful in real time and... seeming to *enjoy* the transgressive nature of this. It's ominious.

To be perfectly honest, that he was an ostensibly left outsider boosted by the hosts of Pod Save America because he was their bartender should've erased Planter's credibility right from jump

They juiced him

There is something brutally psychically injurious to being constantly told "just do good work and you'll be successful" while watching people who do the most dogshit work possible do all the succeeding.

The proletarian orc is obviously the true revolutionary subject of Middle Earth. Certain infantile narodniks may disagree, but the lumpen hobbit has atained to craft guild manufacturing AT BEST and the Shire lacks the industrial base to support class consciousness.

GOP: we will cut all college programs that do not support our theology DEMS: we will cut the same programs, but because they don’t support the business school or the new AI venture

This Claude is still working. And always will. Debussy. La Mer

Gorilla Playing Saxophone with Balloons has dropped out of the White House concert

I thought I hated the military but nobody says "fuck the troops" like Donald Trump.

The thing about the argument for invading and occupying Lebanon is that it can just as easily, if not more easily, be turned around onto Israel but nobody who consider themselves a liberal in the West is arguing that we give Jordan bombs and bulldozers to carpet bomb Tel Aviv and demolish Beersheba

i think a lot of people forget that "racism" simply refers to the wackadoodle belief that humans are divided into different races. real moon's made of cheese type stuff

Probably 80% of posters madness is downstream of thinking that posting on a niche microblogging platform is, in some way, important, rather than being a way to waste time on your phone

Whenever life has me down and I think that I am but a small man trapped in a cold and uncaring universe, I find someone annoying in somebody's mentions here and I block them and the small surge of power I feel in this moment is enough to sustain me for another day.

I like that chuds think that paintings work like video games and when you have a better rig you can drag the graphics slider to extreme and turn on ray tracing. This is legit so funny to me.

A tangent here, but I'm not a huge fan of the growing anti-tax sentiment from Democrats at a time when municipal budgets around the country (including here in Massachusetts) are getting absolutely crushed by the one-two punch of falling federal/state aid and rising healthcare and retirement costs.

a lot of yall still don't get it bean holders can use multiple ploopy knobs with a single bean so if you have 1 open-source bean and 3 ploopy knobs, you can create 3 new ploopies Tonight's ploopy bean launch event is essentially a launching event for both ploopies, Knobs and Beans

if there's no value to publishers in letting Google reference them, they should not let Google access their content.

case of the mondays? i’d rather have a ques a dilla

I don't think folks younger than 30 know what the internet once legitimately promised to be (and I would argue briefly was): a boundary-less space of pretty much uncommodified information and communication. A mix between community bulletin boards and university library stacks.

Version of Luigi's Mansion with Gengar in it.

Melania Trump infesting the White House with bees is the funniest thing no one's talking about right now #Bees #WhiteHouse
