there are *so* many people who cower before trump's threats, and jerome fucking powell is out here on youtube going, "all of this is corrupt horseshit, they're doing it because i won't bail them out, they're all liars"

You know the thing where Musk seems smart until he starts talking about things you know about? Finance dudes are about to go through that with Trump.

a rather significant portion of the founding was based on “no guys like Donald Trump in particular” they really specifically wanted to avoid this type of know-nothing demagogue

When ICE shows up in your community and you are from the Midwest it is time for you to become a Midpest. Don't let them know a moment or Midrest, go forth for you are now Midblessed.

I for one want there to be wild monkeys roving the city.

Trump, reading a note handed to him by Rubio during a press conference: "Please don't read this note aloud." Hahaha great

I broke the story yesterday that masked ICE agents (not DOJ) were removing items including a personal computer from the home of Jonathan Ross, the ICE agent who shot Renee Good. I have yet to see a single news outlet cover this or an elected official even acknowledge it.

I think it’s time for some good ol fashioned trollin’ Been a minute since I was banned from a fascist subreddit.

it's crazy how as an irish person this is the only thing i know her for and it's pretty cool

What really gives the game away is how the “return America to its glorious past” crowd never suggests reforming immigration to the beautiful 19th-century system of Ellis Island, before the modernist Immigration Act destroyed it in the decadent Roaring 20s. Immigration is good, actually. Pass it on.

I’ll let you decide what movie this is referring to.

Is any other parent ever tempted to buy something way too big for their kid and hope they’re still interested in he thing five years from now?

Dem politicians, I know your whole thing is to be completely ineffective and unable to meet the moment no matter what that moment is, but now would be a good time to finally step up.

I could very easily secure food, water, shelter, emotional support, privacy, and entertainment for my entire family if rich folk would just LEAVE ME BE. FOR. FIVE. MINUTES!!!!!!!

The only reason to stay on Twitter is quantity of engagement over quality, and if I wanted to go that route I’d start by tweeting like a sane person.

Political Commentary Bot Is Undefeated, cont’d.

you can enrich your life by doing more bartering and giving more favors.

There are syrups popular for pouring into berliner weisse beers that you could add to anything, and one is "woodruff" flavored, spruce-adjacent! You could add it to anything you want, they usually sell them at liquor stores or specialty import stores. Used to use it as a bartender, it's delicious.

For Epiphany, this glorious 1966 illustration of the Three Kings by the great Eyvind Earle (1916 - 2000), best remembered for his enormous contribution to Disney Animation's visual style during the 1950s, particularly Sleeping Beauty (1959).

Biden gave one speech about the threat of democratic backsliding to which the press response was "did you see how sinister the background lighting was"

The Bible: faith without works is dead Bros: No problem! we will simply have Christianity without either faith or works

trump did january 6th. republicans did january 6th. violent traitors did january 6th. they stormed the capitol, destroyed the building and threatened to kill members of congress. ashli babbitt was a violent insurrectionist. the capitol police protected people. these are truths we need to repeat.

Art is primarily a hobby, and getting objectively good is not important.

Everybody has two kitchen appliances that will change their life. The problem is, they're different for everybody.

Los episodios piloto son una cosa complicadísima de ejecutar, porque al final has de venderle una premisa, unos personajes y un mundo a tu público en media hora mientras presentas mil elementos y das a entender el tono que va a tener después la serie. Pocas sitcoms lo logran con éxito. Dicho esto:

that's so crazy. i'm sure you put him in prison and banned him from ever holding office again right

If kidnapping a foreign president isn’t enough to get him out of office, why would the Epstein files be a silver bullet?

No seriously, don’t tell me because it’s cold, where did you put them? Those are my neighbors, bacon bits.

Where are the homeless people?

Ran across this relic today while doing some cleaning.

IRS’s Direct File wasn't open source while it was being developed. But somebody just made it public!

Damn that’s crazy, hey do you ever think about how Jesus said that slavishly following cultural mores makes your morality beholden to popularity and leads to wickedness more rapidly than you could ever imagine?

How pissed do you think this guy is every day?

Bite me Satya, you Ai slop edge lord.

This is another one that’s actual true.

It IS weird that the first mod people alway make is to take an innocuous female NPC and make her “hotter”

The concept of national borders isn’t Biblical

Hey tankies? You know you ca start a commune at like any time right? There is zero reason for you to wait for your country’s entire economy to be economy to be restructured. Unless, ya know, you’re full of shit.

I don’t, no. Topical sermons tend to jump around and cherry pick verses that the preacher thinks fit his idea of where he wants the sermon to go. Preaching through a full book, while still possible to mess up, makes it harder to do that. Context really does matter in preaching.
