I don't really have anything especially profound to say, but yeah man this is it. They won't obey even the most milquetoast SCOTUS orders and are talking about sending US citizens to foreign gulags. It's happened here.

thank you Elon and DOGE! what the world definitely needs is unchecked drug resistant gonorrhea

when we get the white house back, these people are going to have to go to prison. i keep saying it, but it's going to be critically important. even *discussing* this with a foreign leader comes about as close as you get to treasonous without swinging from a gallows.

So look at that. DOGE has cost the US Treasury fucking half a trillion dollars. HALF A TRILLION DOLLARS. This is your cost savings.

every person involved in this needs to be in prison

If Trump can deport anyone, he can deport you and me.

I'm against shipping slave labor to a dictator's concentration camp even if they are gang members. Either convict them of a crime, or else deport them to their own country. Shipping them to a third country where they have no connection and are wanted for no crime is *never* appropriate or lawful.

The sad truth is that the apotheosis of decades of conspiracy theorizing isn't uncovering that the CIA killed Kennedy, it's the election of Donald J. Trump as the 47th president of these United States. It's not just JFK's brains that leaked out over this shit.

They're going to kill Libby and all your other library book reading apps, programs funded by Congress which the administration (and certainly not Elon or his teen Nazi psychopath goons) has no power to shut down. Maybe a day to call all your reps again and to demand action

if the democratic party had a functional propaganda arm it could make a lot of hay of the fact that a non-trivial number of MAGA personalities and politicians are child sex offenders

trump's argument is that he can order masked men who won't identify themselves to kidnap your children while you sleep and then sell them to die in slavery in a south american despot's concentration camp, and no person on earth can tell him not to

we are on the verge of curing maybe the worst cancer of all the cancers but the whole right wing media makes too much money scaring people about "mRNA vaccines" so time to toss that in the trash

Scientists have just cured pancreatic cancer in some patients with personalized mRNA vaccines. Pancreatic cancer. And this Trump administration wants to throw it all away. They’re throwing away a cure for cancer.

You know that Tweet about how if libraries didn't already exist it'd be impossible to convince people to support creating them? We're gonna see that play out in real time, in so many different ways over the next four years.

not to state the obvious but if the tesla protests weren't working they wouldn't be doing an ad in front of the white house and threatening to charge people with terrorism

We're going to need special tribunals at the end of all of this

Voters are freaked when they hear about Trump and Musk shutting down cancer research in the US. Even 71% of indy voters.

Hang the fucking plane crashes on Trump and Musk for fuck's sake. They would do it to a Democrat without even hesitating for one second.

you can just spit in their faces, democrats. you should be spitting in their faces

the richest man in the world decided that you don't deserve safe drinking water

the single most un-american and anti-constitutional statement ever uttered by an american president

real straightforward calculation finds that Cybertrucks are 17 times more likely to have fire fatalities than the Ford Pinto fuelarc.com/evs/its-offi...

Thousand year Reich lasted 12 years and ended with a gunshot on a couch, never let them forget

Gotta say, the mainstream media is simply not doing the minimum amount of work to communicate that a bunch of Nazis implicated in child pornography have all of our banking information and can turn off social security whenever they want.

Trump is openly violating the law on a vast and unprecedented scale and everyone is acting like it's normal. NPR had a long story about finding a rare shrew. NYT said he was disregarding "legal niceties." This is an attack on the Constitution as profound as the attempt to overturn the 2020 election.

i think people who complain about the language police are, by and large, just cowards. say whatever you want! no one is going to stop you. but people may judge you or even, if you say the wrong thing in front of the wrong person, pop you in the mouth. but that’s life!

I imagine there will be backlash but my worry is that it won't actually be to any of the awful undemocratic, racist, sexist bullshit but just to the normal "prices too high" stuff. thus normalizing the truly awful policies

i don’t understand how, psychologically, a person gets to a place where they interpret sign language as some kind of attack or imposition on their life. like, what the fuck is wrong with you?

Something about this has really got to me. It is just such a slap in the face - this is what we're worth, is it? Arguably the largest connector of human beings in the world, flooded with literal friction between each and every one by a billionaire addicted to growth. Death cult shit. Disgraceful.

Between going to UNLV games growing up and rooting for Iowa and the Bears I have watched so much bad football in my life. I'm practically numb to garbage games and even then that 6-3 game tonight was gross.

Anyone and everyone associated with the Bears Oline, with the exception of Darnell Wright, should be banned from the building and chased out of Chicago.

i still think it's incredible that Vivek thinks the point of Whiplash is that the society portrayed within Whiplash is good

I don’t mean this in a dunky dickhead sort of way but the president who had higher approval ratings than Christ tried to use AIDS to exterminate the LGBT community in the 80s and I feel like we should talk about this more.

I said this on the show, but something that hasn’t sunk in, I think. We haven’t had a “new” president who is sworn in and is immediately a lame duck in the nation’s entire history. When Grover Cleveland was sworn in a second time we didn’t have the 22nd amendment!

JUMP PASS FAKE PUNT FOR UNLV

The Ricketts are sure lucky they share a city with Reinsdorf and the McCaskeys. Chicago easily has to have the worst collection of owners in all of sports.

This is just a really bad Bears team all around. After 8 straight losses you can't just blame it on coaching. Ryan Poles has got to go.

Once upon a time, not the entire internet was 4chan. Only 4chan was 4chan, because everywhere else would kick you out for Doing 4chan in their spaces. It sounds utopian, but it is true.

That Daniel Penny and Daniel Perry and Kyle Rittenhouse and George Zimmerman are all walking around free in the most carceral nation in the world is something that demands a reckoning.

Peter Principle Speedrun in Chicago.

The funniest revelation in the Russini Bears piece was that players wanted Bagent to start, not because it would help them win, but to protect Caleb from further exposure to Shane Waldron's offense.

Not only do I want Georgia to lose because that would be funny, but I also feel like UGA losing in this dumb OT format might force CFB to abandon this dumb 2pt shootout
