as others have pointed out, they're using Ted Bundy tactics now. They've switched it up from school shooter style to serial killer style

Told her there probably won't be another dog in the Olympics

i swear to god, every few days my wife will start telling me about some incredibly braindead attention-seeking take she saw online and I always ask "was this on threads?" and the answer is always yes

Michael Tracey has been publicly smearing and attacking Epstein victims Tara Palmeri asks him: “Are you being paid by someone powerful to attack sex-crime victims?” He then fakes audio issues and claims he can’t hear her question

In what I’m choosing to believe is an intentional bit Tubi has two identical listings for Double Daddy

Sci fi horror childhood. I’m glad she seems to be doing well these days

Trump was obviously way worse, but the idea that Biden was great is bullshit— and i’m not even a COVID zero guy. like, beyond that first phase of the vaccine rollout, they almost did nothing. the admin wouldn’t have sent free tests during that 2021-2022 winter wave had Psaki not embarrassed herself.

she’s like a MadTV character

what if i told you, through the power of forensic analysis, we are closer than ever to knowing the exact Far Side cartoon that is making Sting smile in this iconic photo. 🧵 👇

We are all deeply concerned that Juan and his mom will be deported and that Juan’s health will continue to deteriorate. His life is in danger because of ICE’s monstrous cruelty. I will continue to provide updates and we will keep fighting to protect them.

“I don’t want to be in this place I want to go to my school.” - 7 year old imprisoned by ICE for 70 days in a concentration camp in Texas. Today, after @propublica.org published this story, the camp was raided to confiscate letters from the children. www.propublica.org/article/ice-...

Teapot Dome, the biggest scandal in American history pre-Watergate, involved less than $9 million, inflation adjusted. Meanwhile Noem's jet, at $70 million, is small potatoes in the Trump administration There's literally no precedent in American history for the scale of what Trump et al are doing

lol

This is Iraq War style propaganda: They make the face of a well-researched, (near) academic consensus, that isn't egregiously controversial among experts on the subject... and make the face of it a famous but uncredentialed young woman so they can pretend it's vacuous and naive.

I will never not share my favorite public health poster.

We’re in an interesting period where companies seem to be betting the farm that their customers don’t care about the quality of their product and will just pay for it even if it’s worthless

McDonald's Shrimp Salad (1985-1986): A garden salad topped hardboiled eggs and mini shrimp cocktail. This offering made national headlines when improperly stored shrimp led to a typhoid outbreak in Maryland. This salad has popped back up in some European markets in recent years

interesting to think that revolutionary era americans understood themselves as making a break with the “old world” and establishing a new civilization. and crucially, this new civilization rested on republican self-government, not “sovereignty.”

Ofelia Torres, the teenage Chicago Public Schools student whose fight against cancer while her father was detained by ICE came to represent the federal government's overreach during Operation Midway Blitz, has died. Brave young woman. I will never forget her. RIP.

There's a short video clip of Pinker and Epstein on the plane and a girls voice says "where are you taking me" and this is the still from it. So I don't know what he's talking about.

It's worth asking what will stop this before November. Every day it goes on is an intolerable crime.

In 1854, after watching the federal government deploy 2000 federal troops and spend $40,000 sending Anthony Burns back into slavery, Boston's Amos Adams Lawrence said “we went to bed one night old-fashioned, conservative, Compromise Union Whigs and waked up stark mad Abolitionists.”

Don’t even get me started on Circleville OH

"wages have been flat for decades" is an extremely simple, obviously true concept that explains about 80% of all handwringing op-eds and for some reason they just won't say that

I'm a socialist that's generally of the opinion there needs to be a broad popular front against the Republicans, but i think people are a little overboard with assigning this kind of coherence to democratic primary voters. Nobody has any idea what they're gonna do a few years from now

maybe the coolest thing this dipshit ever did in his life?

100% right on. I think a lot of it comes from users seeing shouty confrontational personalities getting the most attention and and social media is nothing if not people doing everything possible to get attention. Those people are not online to have fun.

Anyone currently involved in federal immigration enforcement, every officer, every bureaucrat, every lawyer, every judge, is a member of the most evil group of people this country has seen since Reconstruction. Darkness personified, every one. Doing this to children is beyond depraved.

“They were hellbent on not allowing anybody to help him until he was dead,” she said. “I was right there, and they — all of them — made the decision to deny me access to give him the best possible chance of survival.”

several jobs ago when I had to write internet coupons for like 800 shitty crossfit gyms a month, I got to looking into some of the paleo stuff that evolved into whatever it is RFK Jr is doing with his diet. And I can't stress enough how much of it really just seems to be "eating plants is kinda gay"

Besides being a transphobic ass who hates the homeless, he was married to Kim Guilfoyle! You don't think the Rs have every piece of oppo they'll ever need to sink this slimy fuck? She knows where all the bodies are buried. You are straight stupid if you run this asshole for the big job

I think it is important to emphasize that at no point has anyone suggested a policy or campaign of vengeance against white people. Reparations for past harms is the most radical proposal people can think of, they’re making all of this up in their own minds.

It's cool how the Socialist Equality Party seems to run kinda like some trotskyist version of the Westboro Baptist Church--some elderly crackpot who actually runs a multimillion dollar business convinced the most annoying attorneys he could find to join a cult

It's not a new observation at this point but that wild Noem/Lewandowski story in WSJ really brings home the extent to which all the Trump 2 cabinet-level goblins see their jobs as flying private, doing short-form video, and screaming at underlings. They all hate each other and none of them can read.

personally, I would not be firing and then immediately rehiring someone to fly me in a plane if I was a high-ranking official in an extremely unpopular government

The details of the Kristi Noem blanket incident are just fucking perfect

It’s so funny how badly people want to talk themselves into a version of “progressivism” that does not involve having to be a part of society or the public at all. Sorry babe you’re gonna have to touch the unwashed masses, otherwise you’re just a libertarian with a different brand narrative

You need to understand that for every store that gets out, there are easily 5 more. There are segments of la frontera that are known as death valleys because of the difficulty of maintaining hydration and CBP‘s institutionalized culture of destroying water sources left behind by crossers & activists

powerup comics guy has been making incredible content these past few weeks

So the feds ARE NOT considering an mRNA vaccine for the flu, which could save countless lives, but ARE backing research into whether horse dewormer can cure cancer, because the right views vaccines as elite and ivermectin as populist. Cool. kffhealthnews.org/news/article...

Sorry but Kurtwood Smith starting this with "well Paul is Dutch, so" is killing me

having your city noticed by the president is now a natural disaster on par with a hurricane or major flood

It's good that this fucker will never get a chance to become president.
