"the new model where your family never breaks out of the cycle of working at factory jobs that we've stripped all safety and economic sustainability out of in order to maximize profits for oligarchs. oh, and heavens no, this isn't for *my* family. just yours."

How the hell is it hitting the hand extended out away from the back not a freaking handball? Kudos to Gvardiol for saying, “Fine, we’ll do it in hard mode.” But honestly, textbook. #mcfc #ManCity

I mean… can Luke Weaver resume closer duties? #Yankees

Elon backtracked on DOGE savings goals from $1 trillion to $150 billion. But watchdogs report only $12.6 billion in verifiable savings. That represents just 0.173% of the U.S. federal budget for 2025. We're losing vital government services for basically nothing in return.

Errors, dumped out of virtual lines, your cart is empty… but victory in the end. (Until they cancel the orders suddenly, I’m sure.) I kinda miss the days of just lining up at the store on launch day. #Nintendo #NintendoSwitch2

Ah yes, the government asking Jews to register as Jewish, in the name of protecting the Jews. No way that could go wrong www.nytimes.com/2025/04/23/n...

Check out how the anchors of CBS Evening News ended their broadcast tonight:

Wow, I finally understand the former baseball players who say they stayed clean in the 1990s and as a result don't think that any PED user should be in the Hall of Fame.

🧵 THREAD: A federal whistleblower just dropped one of the most disturbing cybersecurity disclosures I’ve ever read. He's saying DOGE came in, data went out, and Russians started attempting logins with new valid DOGE passwords Media's coverage wasn't detailed enough so I dug into his testimony:

I said my main goal of this trip was to meet with Kilmar. Tonight I had that chance. I have called his wife, Jennifer, to pass along his message of love. I look forward to providing a full update upon my return.

NYT Connections woke up today and chose violence against all Mario fans.

Adam Ottavino to the #Yankees.

We are so effing broken.

Well, that was… thhhhhbpt. #mcfc #ManCity

I would love for City to do something to make me… almost said “lose my mind” but I will instead be more precise… CHEER right now. #mcfc #ManCity

Trade deficit. I have bought food from say, Chilis. They have never bought food from me. There is a trade deficit with Chilis. I’m still doing fine. The trade deficit argument SOUNDS compelling, but it’s a straw man with no relevancy

"Vanilla is in vanilla ice cream and what else?" is such a perfect encapsulation of the surly self-confidence of the people who are ripping the wires out of our government and our economy.

Super Metroid is EGM’s game of the month - June 1994. #Nintendo #Metroid #EGM #90s #SuperNintendo 🌴☀️

IBB Judge in the 3rd with two outs and bases empty IN MARCH? Damn straight Jazz puts the next at bat in the seats. If Megill is so concerned about “bush league,” start there. 🙄 #Yankees

Posts from 2024: The Yankees have to clean up their defense. A lot of these mistakes are just lazy and careless, not a lack of skill.

Okay, offense is picking it up today, but we NEED to tighten up the defense. This will bite us long term. #Yankees

Fourth at bat of the game in the 4th inning, third HR of the game for Judge alone, all rise for the Captain! 👨🏻‍⚖️ #Yankees

I’m choosing to ignore the shaky defense in the 2nd for now and exult in Aaron Judge getting his third at bat of the game by the 3rd inning because that means the #Yankees are rolling. Give me a grand slam!

The Yankees are the 10th team to hit back-to-back-to-back home runs to lead off a game

Yankees beating up Nestor

WHAT A START FOR THE @YANKEES!!! 3 pitches, 3 home runs!!

Sorry it had to be you, Nestor. #Yankees

I love you Nestor, but the game is the game.

Paul Goldschmidt Cody Bellinger Aaron Judge back-to-back-to-back! First time in Yankees history that they've led off a game with 3 straight home runs!

And Judge!!! Three pitches, three homers. My God! The #Yankees seeing whatever the hell Freddie Freeman saw last Fall. 😆

What are the stats for a team’s leadoff hitter crushing a home run in the first at bat of the first two games of the season? And now Bellinger too??? #Yankees

Unidentified men grabbing someone off the street and putting her in a car because she wrote an op-Ed. This as flatly authoritarian as anything we’ve seen in this country in a very long time.

MASKED SECRET POLICE arrested a student on the sidewalk in broad daylight FOR WRITING AN OP/ED We are absolutely at that point now

Just a reminder: having a functional moral compass right now is going to make you feel bad all the time; don’t mistakenly hate yourself for that.

I am no hero.

Honestly, extremely well done announcement video. Love seeing Troy & Nolan back together… Hinting at Indy/Drake rather than outright saying it. Games!

As a former military kid, this is a big deal. Their actions can directly affect the military parent’s career.

"Walkouts have happened at Defense Department schools in Japan, South Korea and Germany." Kids of troops are braver than the troops www.military.com/daily-news/i...

so far I'm seeing a lot of universities respond to grant terminations with "oh I guess now we don't have that grant anymore" instead of "your assertion of a grant termination is executive overreach, see you in court" So, universities: respectfully, what the fuck?

You're not overreacting

What is happening to Columbia is the beginning of what happened to the Central European University in Budapest, which ultimately led to them forced to leave Hungary, so no one in Hungary can teach critically on Gender Studies, Jewish History, Romani History in Hungary. We are going the Orbán route.
