Toddlers when you don't let them drink a bottle of highly toxic cleaning agent.

gravedigger of american democracy. a more malign influence than john c calhoun.

This is how I look when someone asks a "two-part question."

"Bannon has been upping his criticism of Musk in recent days, calling him a 'parasitic illegal immigrant.'"

who could have ever seen this coming

Kevin Hassett on Trump's avian flu plan: "What we need to do is have better ways w/ bio-security & medication & so on to make sure that the perimeter doesn't have to kill the chickens. To have a better, smarter, perimeter...they're killing chickens to stop the spread, but chickens don't really fly"

i don't think reading this to yourself does justice to how bad it is. read it out loud. you'll immediately notice how stilted and uncomfortable the prose is, like someone struggling to articulate an actual thought

so far going anti-woke leads to less money and planes falling out of the sky

Our current moment sucks, to be sure. But one way I find some comfort (strange as it may be) is in coming to understand the structures, actors, and ideas which put us here. If I can name it, if I know where it came from (everything has a history), then it's concrete, nameable, and thus overcome-able

I love my city.

How I get roped into some random ass committee every semester.

LET PEOPLE LIKE MORE CHINESE COLORS 💀😂😂😂😂

Encyclopædia Britannica will continue to use ‘Gulf of Mexico’ for a few reasons: -We serve an international audience, a majority of which is outside the U.S. -The Gulf of Mexico is an international body of water, and the U.S.’s authority to rename it is ambiguous. 🧵⬇️

Goddamn.

just fyi when the government DOES do contracts for large scale social engineering they don't call it that in the contract, they call it "democratic education in Iran" and stuff like that

For the 79% of heterosexual married women whose legal married name doesn’t match your birth certificate or passport, get ready to have your voting rights frozen. Yes, read that again. No, that is not hyperbole. Act now.

Dr. Dre?

Of all the dumbfuckery you’ll see today, none of it will come even close to this.

A lot of you are calling Kendrick Lamar's halftime show "subversive," and I honestly don't understand how or why.

Mahomes, you dickbag, lmao

Y'all are so unserious. I'm logging off.

If you use the word "sportsball" you deserve to be banished from the village.

Gonna start eating steak well done just to feel something.
