don jr furiously printing out epstein emails and shredding them at mar-a-lago

Elon threatening to just leave people on the ISS is making a pretty good case for why you nationalize your space program!

Has anyone ever tried jousting on Vespas

They're literally doing the meme

just saw this picture of an HP laptop with the ports on the back and I had no idea I wanted that to come back. this is a future is worth fighting for

Lol just heard the NPR story about the DOGE guy who lost his job when he said he was surprised at how hard it was to find inefficiencies in the federal govt because he came from Silicon Valley where companies always have lots of people sitting around doing nothing

people are getting disappeared, innocent men sent to foreign gulags, the civil service hollowed out, thousands left to die without foreign aid, and schumer is saber rattling about iran. these people make me fucking sick.

you shouldn’t care about it because they might be coming for you next, you should care that they’re coming for anyone at all

every swing voter believes the president has a button that punished bad people and one that protects good people and they vote for people who promise to hit the buttons and get mad when the buttons turn out to not exist, a fact they find so upsetting they cannot retain it.

Musk should be asked about this in every interview he does now and forever. To ignore it is a dereliction of duty. www.nytimes.com/2025/05/30/o...

For those not familiar, here's the opening paragraph in the Wikipedia entry for the term "remigration," a term which popped up in Europe over a decade ago and until very recently has not been part of the U.S. political discourse. It is NOT a neutral term. en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Remigra...

i won’t link that politico article. i’m not a journalist; it’s the same consent manufacturing op they’ve been running for ages. but look at these two stories from today side by side. “third way” is afraid of being canceled—a thing they can’t even do to nazi kanye. my friends are at risk of dying.

the people here probably already know this but really spread this far and wide: tell your normal offline friends and family to stop using ChatGPT for legal advice. it's happening constantly now. I'm always explaining to people why the advice this silly thing gave them is not real legal advice.

Main character energy is OUT, this summer we’re bringing NPC energy. We’re posted up at the bar dropping lore and suggesting side quests. We’re leaning casually near a locked door and saying “I don’t think you have the key for that” when someone tries the handle. We’re staring at a tree.

I’m not holding my breath, but it would be nice if we could litigate the definition of national security down from its commanding heights.

Don’t Stop Leavin’

Sometimes I forget Vanilla Ice and the Ninja Turtles know each other

A hardcore anti-scammer campaign platform would crush. Dealing with scammers is universal but especially burdensome for older voters.

While I think it’s corny to use Orson Welles’ voice for AI stuff I could see a world where he’d sold his voice rights away after death to buy a month of fancy dinners in Madrid and gone like “I’m told I’m to be the voice these dreadful computers following my untimely demise”

Saw a tweet saying David used “manipulative chord progressions” to please the Lord

I -> biii -> vi -> (iv) -> N6/V -> V/V -> V is a very manipulative chord progression, if anyone is in the market for one.

I have no patience for this. The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time retailed for $59.95 in November, 1998. That's $117.27 today. You're dramatically underpaying for games right now. In fact, AAA studios are killing themselves with big bet live-service disasters and microtransactions to cover costs.

no one questions glass being stronger than brick, and thats how the fourth wall is broken in the kool-aid cinematic universe

alright, it’s been forty years. it’s time for Coke 3

That moment with the cabinet secretary who does not understand the concept of habeas corpus demands that universities make sure their students "learn what this country is about."

You need to grow the fuck up. You’re an adult now. Time to face the facts. There’s no N in the word restaurateur. Quit believing in fairytales.

RFK abolished pharmacies, y’all! Apothecaries are back! Gonna drop a STACK on unguents and salves, can’t tell me nothin.

Full disclosure: I was up at the wee hours past midnight helping my very good friend Eric through this bill after he flagged the language for me. If you want to support the only journalist who was up late last night asking lawmakers about trans Americans, PLEASE share this story.

When I interviewed KKK leaders in Arkansas, this is what they said too. “We don’t hate anyone. We just love our own people.” Then they burned a cross.

i think it should be a bigger story that the president held a meeting with a foreign head of state where he ranted about the most gutter white supremacist propaganda you can find on the internet

We need a liberal Jigsaw

Why did they stop making electronics transparent? What are they hiding??
