i think people look at homelessness as a relatively new phenomenon and reason backwards to think that in the Before Times, poor people must've all been able to afford houses/their own apartments etc. Most of the housing types the poor used were actually just outlawed (boarding houses, SROs etc)

The SAVE America Act mandates that all voters must bring to the polls specifically a photo ID which has proof of citizenship “on the front of the document.” So REAL IDs don’t count. If the ID does not precisely conform to that standard, you must also bring separate proof of citizenship.

Sometimes I imagine the administration spinning a big wheel like on The Price Is Right each morning, waiting to see what provision of the Constitution they should violate today

Every accusation is a confession. This is how any of them achieve "bestseller" status for their books/movies.

it’s the same intellectual path they took from “I’m mad that the president is black” to “venezuela used satellites to flip votes so the left could impose sharia law and make m&m’s less sexy”

The "go woke, go broke" thing is critically important to their entire belief system, because to them "woke" is an ideology pushed by a few elites onto an unwilling populace that secretly shares chud beliefs. So it is psychologically vital to them to square this by any means necessary

Good morning

fellow millennials, let's take a second to appreciate how great it feels to be in the prime marketing demographic catered to by all of the culture. I get now why boomers wanted it to last forever

Translation: Unlike the stupid Dems, we believe women are all lying whores.

Translation: if we kicked them out, what would we do about the president, who's a convicted SAer?

Perhaps this advice can be bundled with the advice to shut up about trans rights, immigrant rights, women's rights, and climate so we can develop a marshmallow platform (essentially a bouncy castle in the kingdom of nowhere).

I bet this hits pretty hard if you're an idiot

The Atlantic should be ashamed to have published Jamie Kirchick's "DSA is a 'parasite'" screed. Beyond that, though, no one should credit Kirchick's thoughts on DSA or the Dems. He is a bad-faith operator here, undermining those he has always sought to undermine — because he is a neocon.

Everyone in Washington is too old. Reaching back 75 years for insults! Just call is Wobblies, why don't you?

I wonder if Ivanka's house looks like this, if Trump's ever been there, and if after he tried a minion to send over some boxes of the stick-on plastic gold for her bedazzling pleasure.

These are so good. I must see more. Please reply with your favorite.

May he successfully suck-start a shotgun.

ah yes, i very much recall being forced to hand over my passport and driver's license last time i took my mom to olive garden to gobble up some subpar pasta. have any of these people actually, like, gone to restaurants ever?

absolutely fucking illegal. a few months during Metro Surge ago i dug into whether/how MN could withhold tax payments to the federal government and couldn't really find a path forward but man, states have to do something and it can't just be the whack-a-mole of filing lawsuits to stop it all.

just got an email from my (former) chair that the university has acted & the state has approved the formal closure of my department. this was done without any faculty input on the decision or the process, & has ended a vibrant, growing (!), humanities department that won teaching and research awards

I mean, I haven’t been to an Olive Garden in a while, but…I don’t think this is true?

gotchoo, fam

I don't understand how people don't spontaneously vomit when they enter that room.

not the point, but more tacky fake gold shit showing up every time they’ve got cameras in the oval office would make a good absurdist comedy bit and/or a creeping horror bit

Oh, so the suspect was a white guy then.

Wouldn't it be funny if this were just a flash in the pan? Like, say, pets.com or brand gamification, or other stuff they've tried to sell us on but we weren't buying It's not outside the realm of possibility.

The Freedom Fuel stations were put together by a pair of serial grifters who stole $667,000 worth of gas from a distributor five years ago, a private credit sponsor, and an energy trader tied up in multiple Trump schemes and profiting heavily off the war in Iran. prospect.org/2026/07/20/k...

The only things I'll buy bagged now are things that will be totally cooked.

17 US service members have been killed in Trump's Iran war and more than 400 wounded, but the Pentagon has stopped disclosing when troops are injured and didn't even reveal three strikes against US forces last week. More than 1,700 Iranian civilians have been killed. www.nytimes.com/2026/07/20/u...

Roger Marshall has really been gunning for the title of Dumbest Senator lately. Might have to wait for Tuberville to retire but he's in the running.

I still think Comey is 85% dick, but good on him for this. Honestly, doest this admin have the absolute worst justice department EVER or what?? Vengeful prosecutions, inept prosecutions, inept filings. It's stunning.

I LOVE HER. I also love those two elderly women. When I was 18 & going for my procedure, I had 2 elderly escorts AND, unexpectedly, my nurse prac was my friend's elderly aunt. I FELT SO CARED FOR. Those women have been the backbone of choice for DECADES. Follow in their footsteps.

Mwahahahah! Now all the bsky tv & movie geeks shall CONQUER! It is our time! RISE UP!!

The administration that thought the best way to defeat COVID was to hide the deaths has now moved on to Iran

It will never stop feeling weird to see previously kind of normal organizations turn into the Association for Scowling at Black Women in Particular While Ogling Everyone’s Genitals

It's so hilarious that making a Spider-Man movie more like the way Christopher Nolan makes his movies = having a script and a plan and, you know, a reason for the movie to exist, beyond "let's make more money"

Just like this. Refuse to comply. Our organizations are made of us. If we don't participate when they choose hate? They adjust or they are replaced.

thought this was taylor farms shredded lettuce

Everyone is talking about the current Odyssey film, but I haven’t seen anyone mention this one. I saw it in TV not all that long ago and…Ralph is in good shape for his age. en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Ret...

Exciting kid lit news from my inbox:

This is also true. In 2008, we wanted something bigger than ourselves because all around us were people trying to make the world smaller. Now that those people have somewhat succeeded, we want stories of how those made small fight back.

I was living in South Philly. My dad got long extension cord to take the tv out to the stoop (IYKYK). My family & friends sat around on the sidewalk on lawn chairs, watching it - the men w/ cans of Schlitz, the ladies w/ glasses of anisette.

I say this deeper in the thread, but I firmly believe that the best diagnostic criteria for ADHD is your friends with ADHD chanting "one of us! one of us!" at you when you describe your brain.

Today is Monday, July 20 Good morning ❤️ eat take your meds hydrate tell your people you love them let them love you back We are here. This is real. Let's build a home for each other and fight like hell. All you fascists bound to lose ✊

Did I just click on a Jacob Soboroff video on youtube JUST because it had a dachshund in the thumbnail? WELL YES I DID and I don't regret it!

I BET I can make this with allulose! (gift link)

people are acting all surprised about Andrew Tate's fit as if "faux-enlighted silk shirt ex-martial artist" isn't a very well-documented type of right wing loser

I once pitched a movie in which D’Artagnan was a young woman who wanted to be a musketeer. It was pleasingly playful about gender and sexuality and had a lot of swash and buckle. Half way through the pitch, an exec had a lightbulb moment. “Wait! What if the character actually WAS a dude?!!!?!?!?”
