Universities can't even have a Gay Sex Command Center anymore, because of woke.

if you inherited a movie theater, what's your first double feature?

500K Mexican-Americans served in the U.S. armed forces in WWII, as did millions of 1st and 2nd-gen immigrants, and 109K noncitizens. Mexican immigrant Macario Garcia won the Medal of Honor in Normandy. When he returned to the US, he was was arrested for trying to eat at a segregated restaurant.

Imagine suing for the right to be an asshole to a coworker or employee. To harass someone who has done nothing to you. Because that's what this is. Wrap it up in religious freedom or whatever, but at it's core, they just want to be mean to people. Kacsmaryk, unsurprisingly, is still terrible.

Editor: You get the pictures for the air traffic controller story? Photographer: Sure did boss. Real fucking sexy just like you asked. Editor: What

“reality tv is inherently fascist” is my most consistently vindicated hot take of all time

"I don't feel like first place was taken from me. Instead, I feel like a happy day was turned ugly by a bully who is using children to make political points."

this is a letter to the editor from a high school track runner who came in second to a trans girl in a race. her state house rep in maine started talking about it. so she wrote this: www.pressherald.com/2025/05/14/r...

This quote, from "Chambraigne" struck a cord. Me and a buddy still laugh about it. I think about how it's a perfect bit often. "Shut! Shut! If you had a neck and I had hands, I would squeeze your brain, which is your body, right out the top of your head, which does not exist!"

Hi, I'm the inventor of the public trash can with the dirty flap over the opening that you have to push with your hand to throw something away. AMA

Every day with this clown. This was at 7:10 AM. This is how he starts his day.

In middle school, a buddy had on a pair of Wrangler jeans. And another buddy noticed and started singing the "Hear comes Wrangler, and he's one tough customer..." jingle. And after that crushing humiliation, you wouldn't have caught me dead in a pair Wranglers. www.youtube.com/watch?v=5JzC...

Just got word that Secretary Noem is asking for an addition to her budget - a new private Gulfstream 5 jet for her personal national photo op tour. She's already got a private plane but wants a tricked out new one. All while she supports kicking 13 million people off Medicaid.

Every now and again, I am reminded that one of Javier Bardem's first movies was the Spanish film Jamón Jamón (which I have not seen). The title translates to Ham Ham.

Elon Musk killed food and medical aid programs that will kill millions of the world’s poorest people, while forcing some of their governments to give his companies contracts. The richest man in the world stealing from the poorest people in the world. Absolutely depraved.

I have a fairly new and firm synthetic fiber filled pillow that matches my wife's two pillows. I use it as a body prop. And then I have a very old beat-up feather pillow that I refuse to have replaced and I use that for my head.

Anyone else’s country have an old man who dresses up in the flag and calls himself your uncle or just me

On the ride home from school today, my daughter and her friend grappled with one of life's timeless questions: "When are we ever going to use this math in real life?" It's nice to know that eternal gripe is still going strong.

Today's edition of "what's that guy up to now?"

Only a very stupid person wouldn’t let this beautiful wooden horse into the walls of the city

RFK Jr always looks like he’s four weeks into a stint on Survivor. If he showed up to a press conference shirtless with a wet bandanna wrapped around his head, I don’t think anyone would notice the difference.

"Our coverage is not perfect. Nothing is." is doing an awful lot of heavy lifting in this post.

If you're thinking about a friend or loved one, remembering a good time or happy memory, shoot them a little text to let them know. People love being thought of, and you will probably make their day. Do it enough, and it will start to come full circle.

A single subplot of Andor: a senator hides secret funding of a rebellion against her own government by agreeing to marry her loyalist daughter to a corrupt businessman’s son. Entire story of original trilogy: farm kid learns magic to help blow up evil headquarters twice.

Please, I beg of you, don't anyone play any audio of the new Chicago Pope speaking. Because I want to believe he sounds like the old SNL "Da Bears" guys for as long as possible. Da body of Christ. Da blood of Christ. Shed for yous.

A lot of people seem real eager to learn who the new Pope that they are going to ignore whenever he says things they don't like or want to do is going to be.

Whoever the new Pope is, I hope is able to clear the incredibly low bar of saying maybe we should be doing more to help and protect our most vulnerable. You know, the kind of wacky beliefs that made the last guy some sort of super-progressive in the area of organized religion.

Just a quick note to say that "When we were kids people worried about this other thing and it turned out not to be a problem!" is not actually a valid argument against worrying about a different thing today.

some people go on vacations to sightsee and go on beautiful hikes but nancy mace flies around the country looking at bathrooms

I don’t mean to alarm anyone, but the orcas now have two F/A-18 Hornets

I'm one of the"people". And I don't have a Pope. So I'd appreciate it we stopped calling him that.
