It was a delightfully perfect day for a bike ride to Red Rocks (Morrison, CO).

I agree. I always thought it was BS that "no one attacks the yellow jersey in Paris"! It will be so much better for cycling fans if indeed the yellow jersey is not only attacked, but has to defend his lead with, you know, actual work!

"A proud feeling? That's a bike ride away!" The Dutch Ministry of Infrastructure launched a new TV ad to encourage people to take their bike instead of the car for short journeys. Whatever the occasion or weather conditions! 🚲 👌🏼

OLD: What is a woman? NEW: What are groceries?

Seems to me that if there’s a senile guy doing nothing in particular the usual way and a senile guy setting everything on fire, the fire guy is the one who should be the focus of media inquiry

Ron Johnson: "This bill is primarily about tax cuts. We can't afford to cut taxes when we're running over $2 trillion a year deficits for the next 10 years as far as the eye can see."

Just hit me that the importing of white folks from South Africa and exporting of brown people is actually, literally an attempt at a great replacement

It's 2015. President Barack Obama has accepted a "sky palace" jumbo jet from the Qatari government, which he'll own after he leaves office. "Everybody relax," he says in an interview with the New York Times. Everyone does. The networks then televise the military parade in his honor on his birthday.

No matter how many times we say Fox News isn’t real news, it doesn’t matter—because their viewers believe it is. Watch: It shows exactly how they’re screwing all of us—you & me—because we’re stuck dealing with people who fall for disinformation. And their own viewers, because they believe the lies.

No matter what this Administration tells the American people, the law is very clear: Members of Congress have a legal right to enter any DHS detention facility to conduct oversight without prior notice - something I’ve done twice this year without issue.

You’re allowed to argue that black people and women are genetically inferior. But you’re NOT allowed to argue they are NOT inferior because that’s divisive. www.nytimes.com/2025/05/09/u...

I feel really stupid asking again

so much other shit going on it's easy to miss the fun ones! 😂😆

I’m starting to think the defense secretary is a moron. Also the health secretary. Also the homeland security secretary. Also the transportation secretary. Also the director of national intelligence. Also the director of the fbi. Also the president.

OK, kinda proud of this one! Wordle 1,394 3/6 🟨⬜⬜⬜⬜ ⬜🟨🟨⬜⬜ 🟩🟩🟩🟩🟩

Dr Peter Marks, "Vaccines have been studied very extensively for being potentially associated with autism" "That theory has been debunked" "One study in Denmark, over 600,000 children. It shows that if anything, children had a lower rate of autism than unvaccinated children"

Judged on sales, the Cybertruck is worse than Fords notorious automotive failure - the Edsel. Ford hoped to sell 200,000 Edsels a year, but managed just 63,000. Tesla predicted 250,000 Cybertruck sales per year but sold less than 40,000 in its first full year. www.forbes.com/sites/alanoh...

Law professor here: I believe the Trump Administration has engaged in questionable behavior.

NATO but for Universities!

Wisconsin Attorney General Josh Kaul has initiated legal action against Elon Musk for buying votes which violates Wisconsin’s election laws.

It is absolutely right that we do not need Greenland (or Canada) for natsec reasons because they are already close NATO allies. So the only rationale to turn the US into an aggressor in our own hemisphere is if you don’t plan on NATO being a US alliance in the future.

In 1862, a Union soldier found cigars wrapped in a piece of paper in a field of clover. The paper was a copy of Confederate Gen. Lee's invasion orders. The Southern sloppiness helped the Union stop Lee at Antietam. It's unknown who lost the orders in the field, or if he was related to Pete Hegseth.

Only a shithole country, a lawless backwater in the middle of a rapid downward spiral, would revoke a student visa over an op-ed.
