Harvey Milk served his country honorably — first in uniform, then in public office. Taking his name off this Navy ship sends a clear message, and it’s one of disrespect and cruelty.

This is a real NYT headline

Welp, there's one more network whose programming I'll cease to watch.

Yeaaaaaaahhhhh... this is, without sarcasm, entirely accurate.

CDC Decides America’s Children Could Do With More Lead In Their Blood ino.to/z8eJzdH

Big Brother is INDEED watching. From privately-owned security cameras.

No no no, fuck this. The last four-plus months have been horrible enough, but a yutz like this is destroying scientific progress.

Is it too much to ask that supposed leader of the free world not be a con artist scumbag rapist racist antisemetic Nazi?

I'm so over this lying, puritanical pixie.

A thousand times yes. 🫶

They promised to root out waste and abuse and found none, and in the process wasted money and abused innocent people. They promised to deport 20 million people but are not getting anywhere near that, so they are desperately arresting anyone they can get their hands on whilst wearing face masks.

Because I'm sure all new federal workers will want to be constantly evaluated and monitored for how aggressively they love Big Brother. Jesus, this IS turning into the trumpian version of Ingsoc...

In a healthy information environment, this would be front-page news.

Trump gives away the game that there is literally no process to his tariff announcements beyond the half-baked thoughts flitting through his head

Interesting that the administration that claims to dislike it when refugees seek residency *illegally* is arresting refugees in *courts* when the seek immigration legally. MAGAs are just xenophobic white supremacist bigots.

It really does sound like RFK Jr's HHS MAHA report was generated by AI, with hallucinations aplenty. So it has that in common with RFK Jr: hallucinations aplenty.

Taco is triggered as fuck. So whatever you do, don’t call him Taco, or Taco Trump or Trumpy Taco pants, or anything else related to the word taco. He would fucking hate it. 😈

Waitasec -- books about farts are "pѻrnѻgraphic filth"? Well, shit, there goes most of my library check-out history...

Last week my D&D group — made up of middle-aged men like me — was discussing the dilemma of having the ability to purchase extremely ludicrously expensive but very cool dice but not the energy to deal with the resulting family arguments.

This is what happens when nutty anti-vaxxers are made Directors of our Health and Human Services. We are going to be killed by the dumbest people on Earth. www.notus.org/health-scien...

You can’t be “addicted” to a human right.

"Papers, please." But what good does that do when ICE claims they're fake? This is 100% about racism and mendacity, not that anyone seriously thought otherwise.

The USA is barely recognizable after 4 months; if you think you can sit on the sidelines and it will be handed back to you in four years you are out of your mind.

So were the locusts.

🌮

A friendly reminder: I can confirm all Nazis are going to hell.

This sentence just makes me happy: "Donald Trump seems to be having trouble coming to terms with the fact that Vladimir Putin might not actually be the happy-go-lucky fun-loving cool dad he’s always been in their handler-bitch meetings."

Oh, so now we care about what people post on social media? Wild how student visas are getting paused for a vibe check, but some of y’all have been posting red flags for years and still got a security clearance. Make it make sense.

Don’t know who needs to hear this but claiming that you’ve prevented lots of really bad things from happening to our enemies is another way of saying that you’ve been aiding our enemies.

You know it’s Fake Melania when she doesn’t immediately recoil like she smelled a raccoon carcass.

MAGA puffing on a Marlboro Advance and downing his third Red Bull of the morning while watching RFK Jr on Fox News: Ya'll, we really gotta do sumptin' 'bout them chemicals in Froot Loops!

They don’t even bother badly lying anymore. They’re doing their crimes right out in the open. That’s how little they think of us.

The blatant corruption would be staggering in any other administration. Here? It’s just Tuesday.

I guess you call freefall "soaring"...

I'm sure this will be an amazing success story for Texas... 🙄

Trumpist fascism is coming for everyone. Yes, you too. This time it was a legal resident of New Hampshire (a) with an American-citizen child, (b) married to an American-citizen cardiologist.
