If we're getting Gilded Age diseases and economics again can we also have their OTC narcotics

I hate this shit so much

That Kristi Noem video with the detainees is so upsetting and the fact any sizable fraction, let alone a majority, of our society would endorse it is evidence of a deep rot in our entire culture. Like until you answer what fuels the appetite for that kind of thing it will only get worse

I don't know how exactly but we cannot let ourselves abandon these people to rot

They are rounding up the students. Anyone acting like this isn’t a 4 alarm fire is deluded.

the hustle grindset water face guys being houston-adjacent makes so much sense. houston is the perfect place for guys who pretend to have a six hour morning routine before they go to work at a petrochemical company where they sort numbers on a computer like in Severance

Every night we go to sleep to horrors we failed to stop during the day Every morning we wake up to horrors we failed to stop during the night

I've seen 4 new dead infants in Gaza and I wish it wasn't obvious that hundreds more were coming. I fucking hate this world

Be the opposite of whatever this guy is

I was actively not prepared for how truly evil some of this shit would be. Just the vilest kind of online rhetoric now being used as official positions. Incapable of shame or empathy or anything human, reveling in the sadism of it. These are the most disgusting times I've ever lived through.

Wife: Is that Karma Police? Me: Yes. Wife: On repeat? Me: Yes. Wife: Things really are that bad, huh. Me: Yes.

To be fair, she's the best ♥️

I know this is extremely vulgar idealism, but I do think we should try to aggressively reassert the norm that lying is bad. Not in a "Four Pinnochios" fact-checking kind of way, but in a way that frames this kind of lying as moral degeneracy that is fundamentally corrosive to the human spirit.

think if you're a zoomer you're at a disadvantage here, because unless you were really paying attention in the obama years, you don't really have a *full* appreciation of the rank hypocrisy of the conservative propaganda apparatus today. just incredible stuff.

We are unequivocally the bad guys.

can't believe it's 2025 and i'm stressed about tariffs and measles, like am i a character in an american girl book

You may say "it's never been more embarrassing to be an American", and you're probably right, but don't forget that tomorrow will be worse.

Hey, we're just brainstorming here; there are no bad ideas

Happy Black History Month
