What’s Portuguese for “sad because the minute our royal family moved to Brazil they realized it was cooler”

Oh hey look at that an excuse to Post It Again

Three men sit in a cell in El Salvador. The first asks the second why he has been imprisoned. He replies, "Because I criticized Elon Musk." The first man responds, "But I am here for praising Musk!" They ask the third man who has been sitting quietly in the back. He answers, "I AM Elon Musk".

We're all in the billionaire submarine now.

Twitter right now

the democrats should invite Elon to meet with them. tell him that the meeting is on a patch of sticks and leaves that APPEARS to be sitting atop solid ground. but here is the twist,

Yglesias thinks we should welcome neo-Nazi billionaires into the Democratic Party.

must be incredibly frustrating and disheartening to have federal funding that was promised to you for important work suddenly and arbitrarily ripped away

the two Dems quoted in this piece in favor of embracing Musk are 2016 Bernie Sanders delegate Richie Torres and 2020 Bernie Sanders campaign co-chair Ro Khanna

Miracle 1.

We pretty much have to call a Convention under a GOP POTUS because you just know voters will treat it like a midterm/European election ie vehicle for backlash

My not at all novel pitch for Jesus Christ Superstar is dress the preists up in modern day Christian religious garb. Make one a bishop, give another a snake, etc etc.

I mean fuck Buckley but I really do be standing athwart history yelling STOP a lot these days.

kinda weird how intertwined the history of sweden and poland are

might just be the funniest 2 1/2 minutes in history. youtu.be/qVaVsyGV0oM?si…

I will say Trump 1 -> Biden is probably the biggest jump in quality in "Husband of the Secretary of Transportation" history.

When you look at the history of Rome the mad emperors stop pretty much the moment the going gets tough.

Wild to think about how absolutely no one had ever seen an Emperor Penguin in the entire history of human kind until the 1800s. No one even had a conception of an Emperor Penguin.

I regret to inform you that, due to Iran's support for the Joker, Jason Todd has been negatively polarized into supporting Israel. I take no joy in reporting this.

"Who protects Major Esterhazy? The law must stop sucking up to this ineffectual Prussian disguised as a French officer. Why? Who trembles before Esterhazy? What occult power, why shamefully oppose the action of justice? What stands in the way?—

The people like The Checks, various studies have suggested The Checks can be good policy. I think the Democrats should stake out a position as the party of The Checks.

The Defiant is so obviously a bunch of people who only vaguely understand war building a warship. Romulans or whoever: "If I don't perfect this new project, I'll be killed." Blissfully Ignorant Starfleet Scientist: “Guns? Guns and it Goes Fast! Man this war stuff is easy, who wants Pizza?”

Guy who thinks that because of "Deep Space Nine," "Voyager," "Enterprise," and "Discovery" the name of the ship in "Star Trek: The Next Generation" is the USS The Next Generation.

If nothing else we will always have the 2023 MLS Eastern Conference Final, where Supporter's Shield winners FC Cincinnati blew a 2-0 halftime lead to the Columbus Crew, losing the biggest Hell Is Real game of all time.

- the center isn't respecting our culture - let's elect separatists - separatists can't immediately separate, implement reforms to respect culture - time to vote on independence! - why do we need independence our culture is respected

Man they don’t do things like the Statue of Liberty anymore. Not like the design or even message, just the idea of a monumental gift to another country. We weren’t even allied to France at the time they really went “I just think they’re neat.”

Selling Guns to the Past: dangerous, immoral, may have to take time to demonstrate how they work, bulky, can be turned against you Selling Spices and Sugar: lightweight, already established value, more ethical than what they were doing at the time, cannot be turned against you.

Fantastic Four v. Superman caused because Lex and Doom are having a spat and want to prove that their arch-enemy is the best.

Personally, I support the Ohio professional football team that is in a City that starts with "C", was founded by Paul Brown, has orange helmets, hates Art Model and the Steelers, and has a deep history of disappointing fans.

Showing this to someone 15 years ago and they go "why did you come back to show me this?"

Did you know Penn State has the most all time Fiesta Bowl wins? Like it's not that unbelievable, not even weird it's just you don't think about it.

No to blood and soil nationalism. Only soil nationalism. Kaliningrad Russians should hate Rigan Latvians over Hansa Era German feuds. Land acknowledgements carry with them a responsibility to uphold old grudges.

There is nothing cooler than a woke old person and I mean it unironically.

fuck it! tired of this narrative! coming out tomorrow!

So true President-elect Biden should have arrested the incumbent President with...the power of hope?
