Takeout/delivery and cooking your own food are both wrong. Instead you should be losing weight at a supernatural rate due to the “Thinner” curse after accidentally running over an elderly woman with your car.

My 12yo son just got called the N-word as he was walking down the street, by two white kids cycling past him. … That’s not okay at all. …But also? My son is white. Pretty visibly so. So I am angry but I’m also confused.

Trump's commencement message to Coast Guard cadets: "I'm gonna be here in '28. Maybe I'll be here in '32 too. I don't know. Maybe I will."

this would go so hard as an album cover

Reminder: The Associated Press, NPR, and ProPublica are all nonprofit/not-for-profit outlets, and I think it'd be hard to argue that they're…irrelevant. Heck, AP is literally how many people decide when elections are called. (Also, you know, @rns.org is a nonprofit too.)

BREAKING: Former Capitol Police Officer Harry Dunn & MPD Officer Hodges are suing to block the $1.8B “weaponization” slush fund.

That's no ballroom

Live footage of Miller, Trump, and Hegseth overseeing construction of the ballroom:

Sounds like Lex Luthor's idea of a ballroom.

This is some strange definition of "ballroom" at this point.

I know we've shied away from calling Christian Nationalism things like "the American Taliban" due to fears that's Islamophobic, but I when I read this passage it was hard not to think of the parallels.

finding it hard to put into words just quite upsetting I find the idea of Google getting rid of the "ten blue links" format of search entirely, genuinely feels like your landlord announcing he's removing your kitchen and replacing it with a bouncy castle, I need my kitchen, let me keep my kitchen

Worth remembering: Despite all the hoopla they generate, white evangelicals comprise just 13% of the U.S. population. They do not comprise all Christians, nor do they comprise all people of faith. We are a nation of, by, and for THE PEOPLE, not of, by, and for white evangelicals.

What kind of Austin Powers nonsense is this?!

Rare W for The Babylon Bee, holy shit

Is there one relatively obscure member of the MAGA machine that you hope gets a dramatic, humiliating, and possibly public comeuppance in particular? (I think mine is Benny Johnson.)

So once applications open for the $1.7B slush fund, we're all going to apply and break their portal, right?

UGLY ugly, you say?

I think they look happy.

calling it now. this is how they'll show bluesky on jeopardy

All these patriarchal types say we can’t learn theology from women because of what “Pauline Prohibition” says. But I don’t know who that is, and besides, why do they have no problem listening to *her*?

I don't remember how much I paid for my battered copy on eBay but I remember the price stung. (Totally worth it though.) This was a GOOD find. Whew.

"Suetonius wrote that Nero started the fire to clear the site for his planned palatial Golden House. This would include lush artificial landscapes and a 30-meter-tall statue of himself, the Colossus of Nero..." Keep the President away from matches, is all I'm saying.

“and in many instances you have a volcano open up and perhaps molten lava as a barrier and its going to be so beautiful with our mechanical spider, you wouldnt believe. and the dirigible docking station is something we’re looking at very closely but i can tell you but we’re under budget”

James Robison had an “affair” with a woman “almost 20 years ago” who is “now… in her late 20s” (at the time this was written). (Late 20s - 10 = ?) That’s NOT an affair. The woman was “employed by Robison's ministry and temporarily living with Robison and his wife” That is also NOT an affair.

HUGE NEWS: ICE’s courthouse arrests have been STAYED by a New York district judge. That means that ICE will have to stop arresting our immigrant neighbors on the spot when they show up to court at places like 26 Federal Plaza, 290 Broadway, and 201 Varick. (1/2)

This is the correct way to report it. They dropped the case to AVOID the court reviewing it. www.nytimes.com/live/2026/05...

"To the graduating class of 2026, in order to succeed you must embrace a future in which your bodies are pulverized into a slurry that will be used to cool our thinking machines. Only then will you know happiness." (flipping through note cards) "Ok, what else, what else..."

I admit to not knowing everything about the LIRR strike, but the circumstances around it seem so weird, I can’t help but feel like maybe this was engineered (hah) to give Blakeman ammunition against Hochul and Mamdani. (This is the closest I’ll allow myself to get to conspiracy theory thinking.)

“I’m a union man always and period, but give me a break” is the only correct reaction to the LIRR strike. LIRR workers are already the highest paid railroad workers in the world and make $136k on average, over $200K when factoring in benefits!

I'd probably put Achilles tendinitis as the most painful one, followed by tibial, but that makes me sound like some kind of tendinitis connoisseur.

You: "The surveillance cameras have A.I. how that can identify you just by your gait." Me, who gets frequent ankle tendonitis flare-ups but in a different tendon on a different foot every time: "I AM THE INVISIBLE MAN!"

Question to fellow religion nerds: I dropped mention of the fundamentalist-modernist controversy in an interview yesterday and the person responded with deep fascination. They wanted to know if there are easy-read books or podcasts on the subject, and I couldn't quickly name one. Any suggestions?

These futuristic remakes of Lovecraft stories are getting out of hand.

Hi hello someone has reached deep into my psyche and generated a news story intended to delight me and me alone: Kyle Rittenhouse has made MAGA mad by backing Thomas Massie

Saw a video of Chris Tomlin playing this event. So that’s how things are going in mainstream CCM

Aquarius: As you begin to witness miracle after miracle, you'll slowly realize it's not the saved lives or realized dreams you're meant to be seeing, but a choice made by God, or maybe the Universe, to never help you, specifically, even though it would be super easy to do.

What The hell

What if people just realized-

It's hardly unprecedented for politicians to refernce a faith that isn't there own, but it's interesting Gabbard appears to make a direct reference the Christian Lord's Prayer here since, as noted, she is a Hindu and took her oath of office on the Bhagavad Gita?

“Peter said to Jesus, ‘Lord, it is good for us to be here. Let us build three ballrooms—one for you, one for Moses and one for Elijah.’ For he did not know what he was saying.”

I fear that Eric Metaxas’s hair has lost its fanclub. 😬

It is indeed "hard to believe" that Trump's ballroom was God's plan for America.
