Dem senator: Please, protestors, there are better ways to oppose the president Voters: Like not voting for his nominees? Dem senator: haha no no no. No. What I mean is we are writing a rap

Looks like Homeland Security Advisor Stephen Miller has gone over the edge. Way, way over the edge. He tells Fox News: the Supreme Court is made up of “rogue radical communist left-wing” judges and demands America sides with Trump “to remove these terrorists from our communities.”

I don’t know. People want to grasp to grasp to ideas of legality like a life preserver while authoritarians warp the legal system. If you want to drown in the water, best of luck. But people are going to have to wrap their minds around the fact that authoritarian takeovers change everything.

Letter from Dem Senator Chris Van Hollen (MD) requesting a meeting with Salvadoran President Nayib Bukele To discuss MD father Kilmar Abrego Garcia's return "If Kilmar is not home by midweek – I plan to travel to El Salvador this week to check on his condition and discuss his release."

“When we treat public health as a menu of optional precautions, we stop being a society and start being a collection of disconnected risk profiles. That may feel empowering in the moment. But when the next crisis hits, we’ll wish we hadn’t forgotten how to move as a unit.”

Boycotting the grocery store until they start buying an equivalent volume of groceries from me

Have you said thank you once?

Thanos would have had a podcast

Everyone wants there to be a grand scheme behind all of this but the terrible truth is that extremely stupid people are in charge and they have a fanatical devotion to wrong, childlike concepts of society and economics cooked up by right wing radio hosts in order to sell tainted dietary supplements

"When was the last time you said 'thank you,' Mr. Penguin?"

Trump: "An old fashioned term that we use -- groceries. I used it on the campaign. It's such an old fashioned term, but a beautiful term. Groceries. It says a bag with different things in it."

After trying to buy a state Supreme Court seat in Wisconsin, Elon has turned his attention to PA's state Supreme Court, which has 3 Democratic seats up for retention this November. Will you join us in fighting back?

That they weren’t aware of this — or they were and just didn’t care — before shipping people to an offshore gulag is just pure, concentrated evil. People need to go to prison for this.

31 years ago today, this joke first aired on TV.

Excellent work by new NYT headline writer Werner Herzog

"The president has used a strongman playbook to bring universities, news organizations and law firms to heel. That didn’t work on The Atlantic."

Becoming a “thank you for your service” guy for a car dealership is the logical endpoint of American conservatism

I would physically fight the kid from Adolescence and I would win because he’s 13 and I’m an adult

don’t really wear thongs often so every time I do, I end up stuck in this skanky sisyphean loop of thinking I have a wedgie, trying to wiggle it out and then remembering I chose to have this problem when I got dressed this morning and then immediately forgetting 3 minutes later

this is so wretched, and doing it under the pretense of fighting antisemitism makes me sick www.nytimes.com/2025/03/24/n...

This is so fucking wild

We've just updated the @wired.com guide for how to better protect your privacy when you cross the US border: www.wired.com/2017/02/guid...

One thing I can’t stop thinking about, and I won’t even call it a silver lining because everything is terrible: there will come a moment where Trump deports a naturalised citizen, the first of many. And you realize what that means?

The Constitution is very clear that you don't have to do due process if number too big

K time to watch Star Wars for the first time

Abbot Elementary is my happy show, it should be illegal for it to have a sad episode?!?

The only fair way to handle this is to appoint a team of teenagers to tear this company limb from limb until we find out what kind of financial damage they are hiding and where

You know what it’s called when one country ships people to another against their will to force them into labor? The US is framing undocumented people as “gang members” to fuel a literal slave trade

they’re arresting people for performing abortions, they’re deporting people for liking pro-palestine posts on social media, they’re sending immigrants to forced labor camps in south america, we are living under fascism right now

Gen Z is gonna be 45 and still calling things “cringe” the way some millennials still say “adulting” and the kids are gonna roast the shit out of them for it because all it really means is someone is too self-aware to function

I’m not voting for Gavin Newsom in the next presidential election. I don’t care how many podcasts he starts.

One reason the Democrats are not inspiring much confidence as an “opposition party” is that their leader supports a fascist crackdown by his own political opponents because it aligns with his personal support for an apartheid foreign government.

If Dems were unwilling to fight over cabinet nominees and unwilling to fight over the budget/shutdown, it’s safe to assume they’re not going to fight over anything.

The straight-up Deutsche Volk supremacism here aside, Vance, Matt Taibbi, etc want us to simultaneously believe that European countries are totalitarian police states when it comes to speech and a bunch of hippie communes with no effective borders when it comes to immigration.

Comments on any article suggesting Americans might want to go outside or build community are so exhausting. There is no unique situation in the US preventing you from saying hello to your neighbours, having friends for dinner or learning public transportation options

The deputy director of a left-leaning project at Yale Law School was put on leave over allegations that she's linked to a group the U.S. government says funds terrorists — a claim that surfaced three days ago on a news site that's powered at least in part by A.I., and one she denies.

Rubio's gutting of USAID is illegal and unconstitutional. There is no form of democracy anywhere of any kind that would allow the executive branch to unilaterally cancel budgets and programs passed by the legislative branch and signed into law. It's utter lawlessness.
