Ok, this is an undercooked take, so bear with me here. Is it possible that the things people were upset about under Biden were not typical economic markers like wages or savings, but the continued enshittification of our lives? Because I think that [definitely] continued under Biden.

They finally caught the son of a bitch

subscription-AI versions of their kids who no longer speak to them

kinda fun father's day gift from the fam

Installed a new mailbox post, didn't like how it turned out, dug it out and did it a second time. Also replaced all of the ceiling registers on the 2nd floor.

Alonso P6 in Q1 on mediums while Stroll finishes in P18 on softs haha wow

we need to start a GoFundMe for George Soros bc that dude is gonna be beyond broke after paying all these protesters today #NoKings

Honestly, I'm saddened by how numb I feel to all of these things anymore. I think after Sandy Hook, where we just did nothing, was the point hope for this country was lost.

Did they catch the guy??

Nothing to see here, move along

This man is getting *cooked* in the comments

the right won't tell you this because they want your money, but the best way to get a girlfriend as a young man is to be a straight guy who likes musical theater.

Note that the people coming out against waving other flags are generally White, natural-born Americans who don't have any context of belonging to more than 1 culture or more than 1 nation.

One of the things about the US that still puzzles me is why we are so resistant to learning from other countries. You don't have to look hard to find an example where they tightly control immigration, have an aging population, and a declining birth rate. How's Japan doing, anyway?

The NHL is afraid of the General Managers and has been for years. It's not clear why they continue to let them guide the direction of the sport.

Texas, yes that Texas, is at 50% power generation from renewables. The only way out of a clean energy future now is government intervention on behalf of the fossil fuel crime syndicate, because free markets are carrying the transition now.

I see the suit guy is today's main character. Shame. Ah, well.

[posting pictures from the LA wildfires last year] "Look at what all of these rioters and protestors did!"

Wow when I saw this post, it was so wild, I had to look up the raw trade data for myself. Sure enough, U.S. wine exports to Canada have fallen off a cliff:

LAPD leadership: "of course we're not gonna help the feds" [3 hours later] [LAPD cops enthusiastically helping the feds]

I hope Florian's Wirtz it.

must be incredibly frustrating and disheartening to have federal funding that was promised to you for important work suddenly and arbitrarily ripped away

Those white South African refugees are going right back lol.

please, we need Stephen Miller to get involved in this

why not decommission it the usual way: launching it into a million pieces over protected wetlands

I, for one, thought Donnie and Elon would remain best of friends forever! Certainly nobody could have predicted this!

I have a 5yo with hyperactive and inattentive adhd and I understand now why men have heart attacks and/or brain aneurysms at 40

I don't think we talk enough about how the Tavares contract did not age well. He just finished the final season of a 7-year contract, and he was still the 8th highest paid player in the NHL. It certainly wasn't a disaster, but he was 34th in pts/gp and 19th in ESG over that time period.
