And the Canes are staying hot

"74 percent of American kids are not qualified for military service" it's very cool and not ominous how everyone in this administration keeps repeating that the highest goal of this country is to send your kids to war

Puts to shame that milquetoast “farewell to our friend🥺” statement from the CBS Evening News anchors that everyone’s crowing about.

“from tariffs” ;)

My first apartment in 1994 was $350/month. Adjusting for inflation, that apartment should now rent for $744/month. It actually rents for $1500. Greed and inflation are hurting the kids, not their Starbucks lattes.

“We are at a moment right now where people are asking themselves why can’t the Democratic Party defend this assault on democracy . . . and I would submit to you that if you can’t draw the line at genocide, you probably can’t draw the line at democracy.” - Ta-Nehisi Coates

Pope Francis telephoned a church in Gaza nearly every night since October 2023. But the New York Times didn’t include that fact in its obituary. mondoweiss.net/2025/04/main... #Palestine #Israel

I just know Jake Guentzel wishes he could've stayed in Raleigh once Pittsburgh traded him away.

Everyone's all "Conclave!" this and "Conclave!" that, meanwhile I'm trying to figure out how to get added to Cardinal Secretary of State Voiello"s group chat

FMK: JD Vance edition.

Sully in Pittsburgh and Brind’Amour in Raleigh are two of the four, off the top of my head

it's important this go as viral as the original story for morale purposes if nothing else. despite the image they project these people are NOT unaccountable. consequences CAN be forced. focused anger and outrage MATTERS.

"the coddling of the american conservative" would be such a good book

NY Post headline: Hegseth Shaken, Not Stirred

Nothing Compares 2 U 😥

…yeah everyone should watch this

RIP to the only decent Pope in my lifetime

Jesus’s parents were unwed and undocumented. So he got what he deserved. by J. D. Vance

sure do wish @saracivian.bsky.social would leave the Bad Place behind (diggin the dark hair!) good stuff w/ @adamgold.bsky.social www.youtube.com/watch?v=uALd...

RFK Jr: Autistic people will never play sports :( Professional hockey players:

"they also don't care about your way of life" is a total lie. they're obsessed with your way of life! they vote and speak in loathing of your way of life! small-town red America obsessively focuses on other ways of life

Seeing folks confused about this, saying this person doesn't want to acknowledge the cognitive dissonance. But it is imperative that you understand that the core of Trumpism as an ideology is satisfying a seething, uncontrollable resentment. Nothing else matters. Not friends. Not family. Nothing.

FEMA has wiped their website of a bunch of courses- one of which is: IS-368.a—Including People With Disabilities in Disaster Operations If it wasn't clear yet- these people aren't just ideological, they are barbaric.

The White House doesn’t care about Garcia’s legal status because they’re not enforcing immigration law—they’re conducting ethnic cleansing. They can’t justify their actions legally, but they don’t think they need to.

Good trouble

If you like what I do I have 2 live stand-up specials available at www.gofasterstripe.com/unwinnable and www.gofasterstripe.com/bet they are ÂŁ5 and ÂŁ10 respectively and they are solid, 90 minute stand-up shows from your friendly neighbourhood autistic ADHD trans lesbian stand-up comedian

You all need to treat Harry Potter IP like we’re treating the Tesla brand.

If you’re doing the “trans men in women’s toilets” gotcha, 1) you’re making what was always a crap argument 2) you’re revealing that you haven’t read the UK Supreme Court judgment because it says trans men aren’t allowed in women’s spaces (because we look like men) OR men’s spaces

These are great and a few stand out (Boston, CBJ, NYR). And this made me a little teary lol: “The Penguins are never totally cooked with Sidney Crosby as their captain”

So. The only way to stop that British hag is making Harry Potter as toxic a brand as Tesla is.

It sounds like a religious group assuring us the messiah is about to appear.
