Just another quiet Friday afternoon of becoming increasingly radicalized.

Oh it's already that time of year where the SC strips more rights away. Where does the time go?

Did I miss something? Why does everyone hate the Thunder now that they won? (Outside of Seattle, y'all's hate is completely justified) #nba

Mr. Miller is the clearest warning yet of what happens to a society when it fails to control the Living Dead's access to sunscreen and makeup

i am simply asking the press to cover the government sending masked thugs to rip people from their crying children and shipping them to a foreign concentration camp with the same ferocity they cover a trans kid playing jv tennis in sheboygan

Impeach daily if you have to, filibuster even when you don’t need to, disrupt the process as much as possible. These are not normal times and this is not a normal government.

Mamdani should win but he's the latest example of the Democratic Party closing ranks to keep anyone young and exciting and full of energy out of the party - and then they spend countless millions on consultants trying to figure out why they're struggling with young voters

Well-meaning folks on Bluesky who dismiss sportsball as some kind of distraction to What Matters Now are missing a key point in creating an alternative to X: Sports for better or worse dominates American culture. You ignore enormous swaths of potential allies when you dismiss sports.

Committed to being garbage

*takes one step outside*

One quarter left to see if the Pacers believe in the Heart of The Cards

If you were too young in 2003 here is what Bush told the American people: 1) The Iraq War won’t cost a lot of money 3) We won’t need a lot of troops 4) We’ll bring peace and freedom to Iraq 5) We’ll find WMDs 6) We’ll be welcomed as liberators 7) It will be easy 8) It won’t take long All lies.

Will newsroom leaders fulfill their civic duty to inform the American people that the attack on #iran is an unconstitutional act of #war? with a remedy of impeachment? Editorial Boards will now show their credibility. @nytimes.com @wsj.com @washingtonpost.com @apnews.com @cnn.com @usatoday.com

BREAKING: Congresswoman AOC says Trump should be impeached due to his strikes on Iran.

Welp

90% of what I learn about Skip Bayless is against my will

the destruction of chattel slavery is one of the great accomplishments in our nation's history and the reason conservatives hate celebrating it is because doing so legitimizes the black counter-narrative of the united states

No matter what happens, hopefully Americans are taking note that when we say “we don’t want war,” the majority of our elected officials responded by saying “too bad, we do.”

It's infuriating how 99% of the coverage of this new war doesn't bother to mention that it is happening because we had an agreement to limit and monitor Iran's nuclear program, which even Trump's own aides said was working, and he blew it up because it was negotiated under Obama.

Good

"Don't start another war" is somehow simultaneously the one thing the entire US electorate is united behind and the one thing both political parties are lockstep against.

I say this with full sincerity: is there any legacy media that still does it's journalistic job? Asking for a friend that's tired of reading slop

Because the US's high financial barrier of entry to the most popular sport on earth hasn't bitten them on the backside enough. We need even MORE exclusion! Surely no diverse teams have won the World Cup in, idk say, the last 11 years s/

Real talk: One of the (many) reasons we are in this mess again is because too many people went back to brunch after 2020.

ESPN's NBA coverage is plagued by Main Character Syndrome.

There's a whole NBA Finals going on and ESPN is doing off-season talk smh

In light of Mamdani's performance, is astonishing there aren't more insurgent primary campaigns. Democratic establishment is discredited. Power is just sitting there like a mountain of gold but instead of being guarded by a fire-breathing dragon, it's fossils like Chuck Schumer

“A deranged maniac impersonated a police officer and killed lawmakers but if you’re an immigrant be sure you immediately comply with plain clothes people who won’t identify themselves telling you to get in a van”, what a fuckin country

Orange man sad on his birthday 🥳🙌🏾

From earlier.

I hear some of you don’t trust the police anymore. Welcome, the water’s fine, the ice breaker’s in an hour, we have free cupcakes on Tuesdays

✊🏾

We have entered the "The police is saying that if the police is at your door you are not safe call the police immediately" stage of making America great again

The Washington Post, which silenced its Pulitzer Prize winning cartoonist and reduced its opinion pages to a defense of “free markets and democracy” alone, would like to lecture other people on the importance of a free and full exchange of all ideas.

I know what real patriots will be watching 😤

Adopting an anti-clanker stance until we can get AI to stop being such a nightmare

This is one of the consistently stupid arguments particularly with basketball. First off, if you shell out the cash to watch a game in person you should be able to watch it however you like. Some people want to document their experience so let them! 1/2

Do you know what else was illegal and had severe life altering consequences? Hiding jews in your attic. Hiding escaped slaves. Sitting in a white only area. Not turning in your neighbours for being unhappy with the regime. People still did it.
