it's crazy that 500 years ago, you would see the ruler of your country maybe once in your life and hear whispers that they're the Sun God, but now with social media, you get to see on a daily basis that they're the most unhinged, idiotic, and unhappy person you know

OH, THERE HAS TO BE SOMETHING IN THE STOCKING THAT MAKES A NOISE, said Death. OTHERWISE, WHAT IS 4:30 A.M. FOR? - Terry Pratchett, Hogfather good night and good luck to every other parent with small children out there

Nobody: Erika Kirk when her husband gets shot in the neck:

The Intercept reports on the companies that are making millions as ICE bounty hunters: theintercept.com/2025/12/23/i...

My irrational dislike of Inciarte is finally rational. What a douchebag.

This is insane. Nurses are already facing losing funding for graduate school. The state's healthcare system is already facing losing untold millions from Medicaid funding. Wtf are we doing here

How it started. How it's going.

I feel like the Goo Goo Dolls don't get enough credit for being literal actual sellouts but being REALLY good at it. How many other bands can say that? Selling out and still making great music that is beloved by an entire generation? Good for you!!

Noam Chomsky has spent about 60 years telling us that billionaires control the world through corporate propaganda.

Chomsky and Foucault debating the meaning of the term Ephebophilia

Due to poor performance?? "He's been bad lately due to injuries and the fact that he *checks notes* sucks."

I have so much I need to do buuuuuuut I'm going to have a bourbon and read this book I've been unable to put down instead ✌️

Breaking: Rep. Ro Khanna says the Trump DOJ's production "does not comply with" the Epstein Files Transparency Act. Khanna says he and Rep. Thomas Massie "are exploring all options" — including impeachment of DOJ officials, inherent contempt, or referring individuals for obstruction of justice.

Just paid $34 in shipping for.......a dog collar. From an etsy store I've been using for years, that happens to be based in Canada. The shipping cost as much as the collar. Donald Trump is an asshole.

Had a good, chilly, windy, muddy day with the gorl. This creek bed is usually dry if that's any indication of how much rain we got yesterday 😳 Unfortunately I still have my phone

New update from SFWA.

If Trump is the #1 guy on the planet with the most supporters in denial about him being a pedophile, MJ's gotta be #2. Hoping this helps bury him a little further.

Gonna pay just 5% of my taxes on time next year and tell the IRS "the initial deadline is being met."

Gonna stop looking at the Epstein Files in a second because I'm frankly way too skeeved out to keep going but I will say this: the CSAM isn't blacked out nearly enough while the faces of guys in ties are obscured by vanta black rectangles the size of the sun.

The FBI basically dropped everything to review the Epstein files -- nine months ago. And this is what we're getting? bsky.app/profile/noah...

My spouse is on tacrolimus for his transplant. I'd never heard of this, how terrifying and heartbreaking.

I've been way too online today. Tomorrow is hiking day, might throw my phone into a ravine.

They should invent a heating pad that makes ouchie better but without making the rest of your body feel like you've got your thermostat set to 87 in July

So many northeastern libs in elite circles are sooooo squishy and embarrassed by themselves, which was a strange thing to encounter after spending the first 25 years of my life in the South, where being left of center requires you to at least have the courage of your convictions

this is the most "Get a Job, Stay Away From Her" I've ever felt

David Brooks, who wrote in the NYT last month, "The Epstein Story? Count Me Out" is... in the latest Epstein photo dump published by @oversightdemocrats.house.gov. He should absolutely be fired by NYT for this. Major conflict of interest that he didn't disclose.

Behold: the first-ever list of news outlets that have banned generative AI in their reporting. As of today, this is literally information that you cannot find on Google. My goal is to fill the starter pack, so please send over suggestions with supporting evidence! go.bsky.app/8cn1XfT

I think every grandpa should be allowed to get on tv and yell for an hour

How do you tell an applicant that DEI was the reason you did not hire them when you have no black people on staff? Did you just assume that they would take your word as gospel? That they would never follow up? bsky.app/profile/oluf...

TOMORROW! Call your representative! I know there was disappointing news today, but this bill has a higher chance of passing the Senate because it's watered down. Let's double our efforts and kill it in the House, then we'll deal with the threat in the Senate.

FUCKIN FACTS 💯

I'm glad so many people on this app are watching trump talk so I don't have to

Ok well see y'all on June 4th come hell or high water. I NEED this.

America is doing JUST FINE.

Fun fact: copper is so easily reworked and recycled that there is a tiny tiny chance that some of Ea-Nasir's inferior ingots are in the device you used to write this skeet.

Don't let people enjoy things. If someone enjoys something you don't, they're wrong. Also you're wrong for thinking they're wrong. Also the thing itself is wrong. Everyone go to jail

Potential reparations outlined in the bill include official statements of apology, monetary compensation, property tax rebates, social service assistance, as well as licensing and permit fee waivers and reimbursement. trib.al/Kt3AEVe

Even though I've not watched wrestling since I was like......10 or 11 years old..... Mick Foley remains one of the coolest guys I've ever had a conversation with. How fuckin rad.

It's always the most obsessed anti trans people who get caught with CSAM.

If this upsets you, please extend that compassion towards ALL animals. Leading cause of wild habitat loss is due to animal agriculture. Signing a petition is important, but don’t let that be the end of your activism. Love yall 🌱❤️

whoever is writing reality lately is really getting heavy-handed with it. no subtlety at all

In March, I sounded the alarm about low staffing levels at the new Veterans Affairs clinic in Chesapeake. Sec. Collins called me a liar, but now the VA plans to cut 35,000 health care positions—forcing veterans to wait longer to see fewer doctors. Our veterans deserve better.

HSK signing with Atlanta was exactly the kind of good news I needed oh my GOD I'm so happy

this is not behavior becoming of a FIFA Peace Prize recipient.

2/ Out of this darkness, may we each find something important to hold on to. “May It Be a Light to You in Dark Places, When All Other Lights Go Out.” A safe and light-filled Hannukah to all, and spite the hatred in this world. 🔥
