Ok so what’s the best pope / Malort joke so far?

“But mom—“ “For the last time, we’ve got Level 4 at home!”

Oh my god you want me to find "evidence" before putting someone in jail? Every time?? Do you have any idea how long that would take

Everything might be horrible, but there’s at least a 50% chance they announce a new animal crossing game on Wednesday, so… hey. We got that going for us.

okay, it’s time for me to finally weigh in: it’s probably a bad sign that guys are just doing sieg heils in public again

The past ten years has just been the same clutch of morons and apologists insisting that Trump would never cross that line and then shuffling along with him to insist that he would never cross that next one.

trump is employing the age-old defensive strategy of standing next to an even more annoying guy

This is fine.

Motherfucker.

Oh hey Mr. Canary, you takin' a little canary nap? You deserve it, workin' so hard down here in the dark.

Bumping this with the hope that a senator might see it

I’ve been thinking about this scene a lot lately

A man who has shown himself to be deeply sympathetic to Nazism might now have all of our Social Security numbers. That is a statement that would have seemed like absurd liberal hyperbole a few years ago, but is now just a neutral statement of fact.

Jfc do not trade the fucking First Amendment for a goddamn merger www.nytimes.com/2025/01/30/b...

babe, wake up, new all-purpose excuse for white men's failures just dropped

“Why didn’t the helicopter go up or down?” Jesus Mary & Joseph a competent opposition party would make him wear this around his neck for the next four years. At least six months of hearings. Over 60 bodies in the Potomac. “Why didn’t the helicopter go up or down.”

Images you can hear.

In a functioning democracy, a president who -tries to seize Congress's constitutional spending powers -attempts to rewrite the Constitution unilaterally -pardons violent insurrectionists who attacked the government -fires the Inspectors General and DOJ prosecutors would face immediate impeachment

Everyone should be aware of the line that has been crossed in the Trump trans military EO. No longer is this about "evidence," "science" or "protecting kids." Now, explicitly, black and white, it's about trans people being "liars," "dishonorable," "false." It's a big step towards very bad things.

one leftist threw one punch and Richard Spencer basically ceased to exist. makes you think.

BITCH ITS STILL JANUARY

What we have instead of an opposition party is a copy of Robert's Rules of Order that has learned how to do GoFundMes and insider trading

I don’t care if you’re a relative, a fantasy novelist, or an elected official, transphobia is manufactured outrage and transphobe are trash. None of America’s problems are cause by trans people. None. But a LOT are caused by bigots.

In fairness, “you can make millions of individual molecules but there are 13 that you need but can’t make so let’s outsource their production to plants. Also, it’s actually 12…you can make one of the vitamins…as long as the sun’s rays touch your skin like you yourself are a plant” does sound fake.

If a plea for kindness and empathy makes you furious, you might be a sociopath.

Captain America (Series, 1966)

The rules, if you are keeping track: If a single left activist anywhere in the world says "defund the police," it becomes the official position of the Democratic Party, now and forever. If the president's top surrogate repeatedly sieg-heils on stage, it's ambiguous, impossible to interpret.

It’s time to make COD and all the other shooters WWII games where you kill nazis again.

I had a relative compelled into service to the enemy. He mistranslated all the manuals for captured equipment so that The Thing Don't Work. Mistranslate the manuals, whatever that means for you.

Wait I almost forgot they were all antifa

I was thinking yesterday how the torrent of heinous, bullshit EOs were really taking attention away from the even-worse stuff that’s in the works. It really will be any everyday shitstorm again, won’t it.

The plan was always to flood the zone with shit. Not everyone can respond to every outrage. That's on purpose. But no need to get mad at someone for focusing on stuff *you* don't think is important. Let everyone focus on what they want to focus on.

sometimes I wonder if covid really did cook much of the population's brains

Key a Tesla today.

lol big tech is all like, “we didn’t like democrats criticizing us, we much prefer abjectly humiliating ourselves by publicly kissing the ass of MAGA idiots who make us jump through hoops and dance for them while saying our families are no longer citizens”

Mask off, armband on, by the looks of it. Remember, it’s always justified to punch nazis.

bumping this from three weeks ago in light of Elon Musk busting out a LITERAL FUCKING NAZI SALUTE at inauguration

You’re all about to be gaslit about that Nazi salute and I’m begging you to spend no time on it. You know what you saw.

Whatever happens will be worse than what you can imagine in some ways, less terrible than you expect in others, and so, so stupid and corrupt in all ways.

its cool how in a pretty short span all the major social media platforms have come under the ownership of open fascists lol

How is it that no one close to Elon has managed to convince him how stupid his scraggly little beard looks?

I would caution people to stop relying on the Constitution as written to have any meaning other than what the people Trump put on the Supreme Court says it means. "He can't do that" is not a useful response to the things he's going to do. The correct response is "Will the Court uphold that?"

Remember when iTunes had a free song every week?

this is what long-time Elon watchers call "The Realization": when Elon stumbles into your area of expertise, and you realize everyone just gives the guy the benefit of the doubt because he talks about complicated things people don't pay attention to

If you’re not afraid of getting canceled, you fucking coward, why didn’t you let them print your name?
