I wonder what it would be like to have a government that functioned.

That’s where this is headed

Robert E. Lee got his ass beat at Gettysburg by a professor of rhetoric and oratory from Bowdoin College and generations of reactionary fantasists have died mad about it.

Much of reactionary politics today is best understood as a Confederate restoration project.

“I am political,” Ms. Rachel told me of her new effort to free kids from ICE detention. “It’s political to believe that children are worthy of love … and that our care shouldn’t stop at what we look like, our family, at our religion, at a border. Mr. Rogers was very political.”

Columbia, SC to Oceanside, CA. We broke it into 4 days, but 2500ish miles was a lot lol.

We’ve told all the casting agents that the Weird Al biopic sequel is currently on hold, but they just keep sending in headshots.

This is clearly the fault of Somali immigrants in Minnesota.

This really is an encapsulation of what being an American is: experiencing something needlessly cruel and profoundly stupid while propaganda you can’t turn off blares about how free and lucky you are

Alford: “should I do things to make our athletics department better all around? Or should I partner with an AI company to make an AI Bobby Bowden, Burt Reynolds, Lee Corso mashup during halftime of a game the football team is losing 24-3 at half?”

"And as for the war, well, the buck stops with a different toady entirely ..."

"The man who is really responsible for what we're doing -- I mean, in a legal, prosecutorial sense -- is our boss Stephen Miller."

Shoutout to Brett and also @coyseminoles.bsky.social for sharing this with the group chat. I said last yr he would be a 1 overall pick this yr, and while likely untrue, he will be taken very early in the 1st. Especially with how good his defense is and athleticism on the bases. Watch while you can!

“Not a single scar on my heart came from my enemies. They all came from people I thought loved me.”

81 million domestic and 140 million worldwide opening weekend for Project Hail Mary! Really good numbers for a non franchise opening weekend. GO SEE THIS MOVIE!

#ProjectHailMary takes off with a $80.6M box office opening. https://editorial.rottentomatoes.com/article/weekend-box-office-project-hail-mary-scores-big-win-for-amazon-mgm/?cmp=TWRT_Edit_WeekendBoxOffice_323

She came right to work out of that coma???

Republicans control the House, the Senate, and the White House. Democrats have introduced 7 bills to fund TSA. Republicans voted them all down. Republicans are to blame for long TSA lines.

I can't believe those ppl elected a man who doesn't know which vs witch 🙁

I got bad news for him if he thinks “leaning into his support for Israel in the war with Iran” is going to help him in a potential presidential run lol.

👀 Spokesperson for Iran’s National Security and Foreign Policy Commission, Ebrahim Rezaei: "The battle continues… and another defeat for the devil. Trump and the United States have once again been defeated."

Gonna use this one a lot

Astonishing. The goal of our war is now to undo the effect of the war we started. Gosh, if only we could rewind to, say, four weeks ago when the Strait of Hormuz was open and normal!

Trump wouldn’t lie. This is clearly a 65D chess move that the libs just don’t understand. Stupid libs.

it will take generations for the world to trust America again but imo we can speed run it by shipping people to The Hague. As a gesture of like “we get it.”

Looking forward to ICE ending these long lines at TSA checkpoints the only way they know how -- dispersing tear gas and savagely assaulting anyone who's left

How do we live in a society where a goddamn city full of human beings is going to lose all its power because we “have” to use all the electricity for the suicide porn plagiarism robot and there is literally no recourse through law or politics

19-4. Go Noles! Next game is Tuesday vs UF in Jacksonville.

1/2/3 on 5 pitches for Bryson Moore and we are underway in the rubber match.

If there is one thing I’ve learned is that if a project is struggling, adding a bunch of new trainees always helps, especially if they’re being paid and you’re not, and they’re the reason you’re not being paid

State sponsored gangs that we are told we MUST HAVE, in order to protect us from the bad guys. They’re the bad guys though, so……who’s protecting us from them?

Ryan Gosling telling a packed theater in NYC that “it’s not your job to keep theaters open, it’s our job to make things that make it worth you coming out” is really dope. Man went from a defensive liability to one of the most diverse movie stars of his generation.

Targeting civilian infrastructure is a war crime. The media should report that.

Seriously though, go see this movie in theaters. Do yourself the favor of getting proper visuals in a theater for this movie. IMAX if you got one close.

RUN, don’t walk, to see Project Hail Mary in a theater.

Women Presidents are The Best 😊

Timing issue being: that at this current time, Trump is the president.

Here's the exchange in which Rep Adam Smith says all Dems should oppose any more funding for the war. Smith is generally moderate, so for him to unload this way is a big deal: newrepublic.com/article/2080...

It’s not just some Catholics, Tbf. I’m not Catholic, or religious at all, but I also would like him burned at the stake.

hear em out

BYU would be leading if they didn't have to tithe 10% of their points

As Dybantsa plays all 40 again, taking a roster that would have 10 wins without him to the limit against Texas, I can’t wait to hear more about how Darryn Peterson is the better prospect again while he plays 15 minutes bc of cramps.

So he admits that she sucks and he shouldn’t be a part of it, but decided he likes money more than having morals lol. Could’ve just left that one in the chamber, John.

“Sure she endorsed a Nazi, but think about the other people she endorsed and forget about that one. The others are great bc her judgement, aside from the Nazi endorsement, is great.”

I can’t even imagine some of the gross shit going on in those interactions lol.

22 years ago today, ‘Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind’ was released in theaters.

A day after saying they’re gonna have to shut down the post office, the same month they said they have to start cutting social security yearly, and the same year they have refused to fund medical care/public schools/or veterans benefits. All bc they “don’t have the money.”

'Project Hail Mary' & 'The Martian' author Andy Weir confirms he's writing a new book 📕 "It's science fiction, of course, and it's a new standalone story. It's not a sequel to anything" (via Screenrant)
