Super Bowl 2026: The NFL, smarting from JD Vance’s criticism of the 2025 halftime show, presents Kid Rock, Ted Nugent, and Carrie Underwood singing “Camptown Races”

Dems spent years avoiding having any kind of convo about adding seats to the Supreme Court because 'what kind of precedent would that set for Republicans?' Meanwhile, the GOP take office & within weeks are openly talking about ignoring court verdicts and impeaching judges. Sigh.

How I’m feeling tonight

Found out that TWENTY emails is considered a lot to politicians on an issue. TWENTY. As in, they call that getting slammed. So next time you see a request to email your rep, or call, keep that in mind. TWENTY is a lot.

How is this legal? How? Why is every top Democrat not outside the Treasury right now, holding a press conference at least? Or filing a lawsuit?? I am losing my mind.

I was one of those warning how bad it would be and how Trump 2 would be much worse than anyone complacently assumed. But even I didn’t have ‘cancel all foreign aid, including to kids with HIV & malaria’ and also ‘let the world’s richest man get access to our private data’ on my 2025 bingo card.

Idgaf I’m still fighting for guaranteed healthcare. Aspiration is the answer. Not just “we’re not the bad guys.” We need something more meaningful than that. I want a future worth fighting for. They have no vision. We do. Lean into our strengths and knock them out. 👊🏽

Anyway as they pull bodies out of the Potomac bear in mind that the guiding ethos of Trumpism is that the TSA, NTSB, and FAA should be radically downsized and run by dudes whose main qualifications are loyalty are a willingness to say “cunt” a lot

god I just hope we can figure out who’s responsible for this deadly crash. if only there were clues. ah well. total mystery

afrikaner doing a fascist salute on the stage on mlk day is i think a pretty perfect encapsulation of where we are in america, thankfully our media is pretty prepared to cover it

This is so insane

someBODY once told me luigi mangione

your bio should just be an explanation of what you think happened over the last 4000 years. no ai, no on the spot research, just off the dome explain how we all got here, i think it would be very enlightening

I have a very simple idea to dismantle the oligarchy. All assets over $1 billion are taxed at 100%. No more billionaires. If you choose to leave the US to evade those taxes your citizenship is revoked and you’re no longer allowed to conduct business in the United States.

the “user” in “user-centered design” is increasingly a fictional creature, like santa claus we should see “user” as first and foremost a corporate phantasm: a powerful hallucination conjured of fractal office politics, endless slide decks, and cargo cult design dogmas

This story knocked the wind out of me and i hope esquire paid this man. www.esquire.com/news-politic...

Watching the 4-7 Cowboys with a backup QB play the 2-9 Giants with a 3rd string QB and thinking, how could this possibly be worse? And then the braying dipshittery of Tom Brady washes over me.

Nothing profound, but: When people use algorithms to analyze “the world,” they are analyzing that algorithm’s intervention into that world, not the world itself. This can be fine, but people neglect to acknowledge this when arriving at conclusions. There is an “unobserved observer” bias.

It didn’t used to be that you went online to get mad. You went on the computer because that’s where Strong Bad lives

Public education isn't an expenditure; it's an investment, averaging a $10 return for every dollar spent, especially early childhood programs like Head Start. We need more opportunities that give people a shot at the American Dream, not less.

i do not want supporters of a racist fascist rapist bigot anywhere near me tbh i do not think that is an unreasonable position tbh

"If a woman doesn't look woman enough to a Republican, they want to be able to inspect your genitals to use a bathroom? It's disgusting. Everyone should reject it completely... they're endangering women, they're endangering girls of all kind, and everyone should reject it. It's gross." - AOC

For all y’all in the back. This is important… you need to give the Han Solo movie another watch. It’s good. It’s a fun little romp. Please. Don’t keep sleeping on it. It’s fun.

"'Just to be clear, both of your clients testified that they were paid by Rep. Gaetz to have sex?' Chang asked Leppard. 'That's correct. The House was very clear about that and went through each." abcnews.go.com/US/lawyer-te...

I do dig this as an alternative to the oligarchy influenced platforms but two suggestions @bsky.app product folks — 1) some sort of verification system (how do I know any of these people are real lol) 2) make people/businesses use their real names - no shadow account nonsense.

Does anybody need millions of dollars worth of supplements?

“I’m going to snap my fingers and make half the population suddenly disappear” is literally the supervillain monologue from the last Avengers films
