Not being dramatic: has any NBA player has as clutch a playoffs as Halliburton has had?

Yes ‘Cers!! Tyrese Haliburton is HIM!

In Chicago they also almost arrested a court interpreter.

It's like there's a plastic surgeon somewhere that turns all MAGA women into blow up toys and all MAGA men into Disney villains WTAF

I say this a lot but we are all so lucky this generation of fascists came of age on message boards and not stabbing people to death at close range in a trench while the world detonates endlessly around them

I'm just glad one of these men has the nuclear codes and the other has all our personal data.

Poor Bobby, he never realized what building a following of scientifically illiterate anti-vaxxers would mean… 😆

Ah. So, all the attacks on Harvard are supposedly about stopping antisemitism on campus... but they need to hire a holocaust denier in the name of "diversity of viewpoints." Got it.

me: there's no market for this vendors: but everyone has a face

very clear message from media is that universities should constantly be disciplining progressive students for speech but conservative students should never even be questioned (note that the disciplinary charges in this case were dismissed, but the times published the story anyway)

not a data take but this is fucked up. cutting food benefits to poor moms, infants, and toddlers is pointlessly cruel. not a partisan issue, just straightforwardly fucked. the cruelty is the point. call your congressperson

There are 2 previous historical cases of countries destroying their science and universities, crippling them for decades: Lysenkoism in the USSR and Nazi Germany. The Trump administration will be the 3rd. It's not just budgets but research, institutions, expertise, and training the next generation.

i have begun to use “wicked” to describe these people. it is old fashioned but captures the active nature of their malevolence. they are *agents* of evil

Straight up evil

Democrats, upset after the GOP cut off debate on abortion % paid sick leave during session, showed just how disruptive they could be Thursday. They refused to let the Senate conduct ceremonial bill signings due to a lack of a quorum, forcing senators to make unplanned trips to Jeff City tomorrow.

The last sentence is, of course, wholly inconsistent with the American tradition of judicial independence. Nominees don’t work for the president or his attorney general and they can’t dictate what they will or won’t do.

Scoop: Texas police used Flock's license plate cameras to search *nationwide* for a woman who had a self-managed abortion. Claim it was "about her safety" www.404media.co/a-texas-cop-...

New from 404 Media: a cop in Texas performed a nationwide search of license plate reading cameras for a woman who got an abortion, according to multiple sets of data we've reviewed. Included cameras where abortion is legal, like Washington and Illinois www.404media.co/a-texas-cop-...

No big deal, I mean just our team launching a whole other national organization today. Visit: AGVR.org

In case this isn’t obvious: In a healthy political system, if officials released a hyped report on health policy, and the document relied on scientific sources that didn’t exist, those officials would be expected to resign — quickly. www.msnbc.com/rachel-maddo...

The important part about this poll, and Jentleson knows this, is not that the deregulatory agenda polls poorly. The important part is the other side of the poll. “Billionaires are bad” polls extremely well. @adamjentleson.bsky.social should be asking why every Dem leader isn’t saying that.

This is just a straight-up lie. The post-truth insular information ecosystem on the right is just letting them lie to our faces

Lies = "formatting issues" now. Doubleplus ungood.

I hate it here

The president has to follow American law. The lawmaking process (in which Congress and the president play a role) is binding. The entire U.S. legal code is not merely a suggestion to the president. He is required by the Constitution to "take care that the laws be faithfully executed."

A glacier partially collapsed in Switzerland, burying the village of Blatten in a huge landslide of ice, rock, and mud after residents had been evacuated. Scientists called the collapse of the glacier “unprecedented” in the Swiss Alps.

The secretary of transportation literally goes on tv every day to talk about how pants-pissing terrified he is of public transportation

i’m a woman in a major city who takes public transit twice a day and is rarely scared, most likely bc i have not sequestered myself in places where people are taught to fear everyone who isn’t Just Like Them

Jessica Tarlov: “He does these interviews and says I don't know, or I'm not sure. He was asked ‘do you need to uphold the constitution? I don't know, ask a lawyer’ … He may be in front of you, but that doesn’t mean that he’s not spewing utter BS.”

yeah that quote from adam squires is genuinely chilling

been saying this for like 3 years now, the core constituency of the "manosphere" is not Gen Z or teenage boys, it is 35-55 year old dudes who wish they were still teenage boys

Immigration court arrests continued across the nation yesterday (and are likely ongoing today). Yesterday, in NYC, 30 ICE officers swarmed the immigration court, holding lists of names of people to arrest. All were dutifully attending their immigration hearings and many had pending asylum claims.

Update: reports today that multiple legal observers were arrested today in New York at two separate immigration courts, for allegedly “obstructing” ICE. Not only that, apparently some immigration courts are barring the public from attending hearings. This mess is escalating fast.

Why are they using a shot of Westminster Presbyterian? Also destroyed, but not the same church.

I have been sick for a week and I just read about "something going around" in a subreddit, which I guess is how I get my information now that the CDC is officially spending the next four years determining when and how microscopes became gay.

grok is it good if the president of the united states is incredibly thin skinned and easy to trigger

"Trump’s unrelenting public screeds serve as potent evidence that the Harvard funding cuts are retaliatory, and any supposed DEI 'crimes' are mere pretext."

The government will decide what work you can do in the name of freedom

This is what @MarshaBlackburn & SenatorHagerty want you to believe is helping you. Snake oil salesmen. #TrumpsTrillionsTransfer

Trump either has the most consistent signature known to man (down to the specific spots where he applies more or less pressure, as well as little imperfections). OR He’s also using the autopen. Heavily. It’s always projection with these clowns. www.federalregister.gov/presidential...

In addition to everything else, I resent them from using LGBTQ as shorthand for bad and low quality.

reputable medical journals keep saying that RFK and his pro-disease friends are full of shit and so naturally they must be shunned www.politico.com/news/2025/05...
