If you're willing to lie about shit like this then why is anyone to believe you'll tell the truth about anything

This must go so hard if you’re stupid

Look, the world sucks at the moment, so it’s important to find joy where you can. The latest episode of Let’s Game It Out is exactly what you might need. This poor game did not deserve Josh putting the spurs to it but goddamn if it isn’t hilarious.

GenZ draftee, outside Tehran: "Do you ever get used to it, Sgt? Unaliving people?"

the media consistently and aggressively portrayed de blasio as a widely derided, unpopular disaster and then when he actually came up for reelection he won with kim jong il numbers because the media are liars who hate progressives

Jesus, ‘the Iranian govt is overall bad and does lots of bad things’ and ‘the Iranian govt is not the aggressor here, bombing them won’t produce anything positive’ are not complicated thoughts to hold in your head at the same time, some of you people need to realize life isn’t a video game.

crazy embarrassing, in 2025, to be using the same 2017 Game of Thrones meme you used as a demand of fealty that didn't even work the first time

great point. the centrists could have united around somebody other than Cuomo a year ago, but they didn't bother until Mamdami looked likely to win www.eschatonblog.com/2025/06/inco...

I'm the most religious person in my nuclear family, my parents didn't go to church, and I (sometimes) do, with a wife that insists our children go through Catechism. Mostly the reason people don't go anymore is they don't feel welcome there, sorry folks

Again and again, the Free Press spent years complaining about illiberalism and when confronted with the first truly authoritarian government of our lifetimes went from being soft apologists to full throated endorsers

seems like every american election is about beating the 35% of the country who aren't interested in the issues, don't follow the news, know nothing about the candidates, and are dead set solely on walking into that booth and pulling the lever for I Want To Put A Shot Gun In My Mouth

We have gone from the margin of error to the margin of effort. On the day before the election, we stand on the verge of toppling a political dynasty and winning a city we can afford. But we can only do it with you. zohranfornyc.com/gotv

people got way too into "everything is projection" as an explanation last time around but sometimes things really are projection

The media does 500 stories about "are the Democrats commiting political suicide by deposing deportations?!" when Trump is +2% on immigration, but when Trump is 20 points underwater on Iran they don't ask the same thing about Republicans. It's interesting!

We went in blind to Melancholia, though in retrospect it was the least bad lvt movie to see on a date

the political lesson everyone should take from Iraq is that you will regret being in favor of this sooner or later and the earlier you were against it the better off you’ll be ignore the media frenzy and stake your position now, it’s the right thing to do and it’s the ambitious thing to do too

US hasn't had a draft in over 50 years. Highest troop level was Iraq, and didn't use a draft. No Dem proposed a draft, nor wars that'd need one. Where did these young men get the idea they're going to be drafted, and by a Dem president no less? That's a misinformation problem, not a policy problem.

Personally I think zoomers should be drafted. They need to be hazed.

The Biden admin spent 2 years repeatedly saying they would never under any circumstances commit American boots on the ground to the largest land war in Europe while the GOP talked about a special military operation to decartelize Mexico

Wow so you’re telling me everyone who cheered on the Iraq war is on board with this now too? And so are the people who opposed the Iran nuclear deal and killed it? You’re kidding.

I think it's hard to credibly promise to address an issue that people have entirely hallucinated. Like we should try but this is a fantastic example of a Glonzo issue.

💥 🍃 🏥 New Stem Cell Therapy Effective for Severe Diabetes (Type 1) 🧪 Single treatment led to reduced or no need for insulin in all 12 patients New England Journal of Medicine Report nejm.org/doi/full/10.1056/NEJMoa2506549 Gift Article NYT

As a friend of mine said, Hillary has the opportunity to do the funniest thing of all time here

This is absolutely insane shit to write down and publish. The left scared her. This might beat allll the other NYT headlines. Truly spectacular. The GOP banned abortion, the GOP said they would prosecute doctors providing abortions, the 6 Republican appointed SCOTUS judges overturned Roe.

"The Left was fully supportive of Biden's agenda before before 10/7" is a lie and you know it's a lie.

What would have given anybody the idea within living memory of young men or their parents that democrats are the party that might draft you into an illegal war?

Among many other things this is a proliferation nightmare. The lesson learned will be never negotiate with the United States.

It's very funny seeing all the Middle East knowers who freaked the fuck out about Harris' "most lethal military" comment act shocked and confused that the guy who bombed Iran in his last administration is just tossing us back into another war in the Middle East

I mean the Constitution is a dead letter at this point. Trump does whatever he wants and Republicans either scoff at the idea he has to follow any rules or retroactively change the rules so he has to follow them.

Shutting down Indian Point was a big pet project of RFK Jr. and his allies

In this house we believe The state enjoys a monopoly on legitimate violence Violence can only be legitimate when constrained by the rule of law Agents of state violence should be uniformed and accountable to the people

With just one more ten figure funding round, xAI will finally be able to create Evil Howard Zinn

The reason Elon made Grok in the first place was because he assumed OpenAI was turning the secret “woke” dial up too high and small parameter tweaks could make it right-wing. Now he has realized the only way to get the AI to agree with him is to lobotomize it by rewriting the entire training set.

and as we know, "viewpoint diversity" means, "you need to recruit, hire and reward white nationalists"

Trump winning a second time caused being an asshole to be victory coded with morally corrosive effects that will be felt for generations.

it is funny how many people affiliated with the secret police have had to say "stop making fun of the secret police, the guy in the tac vest that covers him like a training bra is a hero, he tracked down and subdued two hospice orderlies using only the W-2 forms they file annually"

they ran a flagrantly racist campaign in 2024 and weren’t punished for it so why wouldn’t they assume they can just keep doing it

the pope is setting the church up to make catholics pick a side, and good for it, what’s the point of being the pope if you can’t flex political and theological muscle

if you know anyone who has fallen for the “Andrew Cuomo might be a jerk but at least he and gets stuff done” myth, please share this article with them Andrew Cuomo is an incompetent micromanager who has a history of screwing up everything he touches

i will go to my grave boiling mad about how the media failed to hold JD Vance to account for his gutter racism

There exists a breed of white conservative “intellectual” who has never gotten over the fact Obama had the audacity to be Smarter While Black.
