how to eat a corn dog: step 1: bite the tip off step 2: suck the meat out step 3: eat the rest of the breading step 4: eat the stick

Blurred faces classic sign of a healthy democracy.

One of the wilder political things in recent history is that Project 2025 publicly released a 900 page document laying out their plans to roll back 100 years of human progress and then during the campaign Republicans just said "no we're not :)" and then they won and now they're doing it all.

So basically our core biomedical agenda has gone from cancer and heart disease research with major investments in alzheimers/dementia research to jacking up the sperm count of teenage males and a new wild goose for the 'hidden causes' of Autism Spectrum Disorder.

Until 1961, "marshmallow" Peeps were produced by soaking baby chicks in lye for six months until the bones gelatinized, rinsing them in an alcohol bath, and then lightly dusting them with confectioner's sugar. You can still get the original formula Peeps at their factory warehouse in Tulsa

Seeing a lot of people comparing Newsom and Cuomo and I think that's not really getting close to communicating how bad Cuomo is.

This is a line in the sand moment

i work at the factory that makes resealable snack pouches making sure the “tear here” label is too high above the ziploc thing when you rip it off. every day i leave work i get shot at in the parking lot by a half dozen guys wearing shirts tucked into jean shorts

US 30-YEAR TREASURY YIELDS RISE TO 4.95%, MARKING BIGGEST WEEKLY INCREASE SINCE 1982 - RTRS Via FirstSquawk

Here’s where we’re headed next: 1. Record number of S&P 500 companies pull full-year earnings guidance. 2. “Jay Powell is artificially costing us trillions of dollars with high interest rates, he must be fired.” 3. “Beautiful phone call with my friend President Xi, we’re making a deal.”

The people who architected the financial and constitutional collapse of this country, for no reason than to torture immigrants on camera for likes and shares, should pay the penalty for their treason

We are learning the answer to: “What if your racist drunk uncle became King of the United States?”

okay now that you all have gotten a taste of America's rational and predictable new trade policy, everyone who wants to build your new factories here just form an orderly line

The president may be a brainwormed idiot who's tanking the global economy but at least he's also an authoritarian monster renditioning innocent people to foreign slave labor camps.

Not really interested in hearing anyone with the Los Angeles Dodgers talking next week about how important Jackie Robinson was when they all smiled and posed today with a white supremacist trying extra hard to re-segregate society.

Just a legal historian here reminding everyone that “high crimes and misdemeanors” do not need to be felonies. They can include political abuses and stupidity, like, hypothetically, destroying the economy and wiping out people’s savings in 3 days.

"Tesla shares fall 4.2% pre-open. This put the stock below the level it was trading at in mid-March when Commerce Secretary Howard Lutnick proclaimed that it will “never be this cheap again” and Elon Musk encouraged employees to “hang on to your stock.” www.bloomberg.com/news/newslet...

This is really unfair to everyone who just voted for him for the racism.

Trump's announcement is like the classic table-cloth pull trick only where all the dishes and glasses fly on to the floor and break.

Yes, global markets will crash, but at least it’s for no reason at all.

Lucky for us, the plan is probably tremendously stupid.

A completely serious question. When people, and businesses, and institutions with the resources and reputation to stand firm…don’t, where does that leave this country. cc Paul, Weiss. And Columbia. And so many others

Thinking about how Jackie Robinson was worth 63.9 WAR despite entering the league in his age 28 season, for no reason

In accordance with new guidelines all accomplishments given to Jackie Robinson will now be given to former Miami Marlins first baseman Jake Burger

I know this can't be fair or really true. But after the last decade whenever I hear of a scholar at Stanford who I'm not familiar with and especially if they're tied to one of the centers or institutes I have to remind myself not to assume they're a charlatan or involved in something evil.

Just a lil guy

Granting a criminal absolute immunity and then putting him in charge of law enforcement turns out to be a mistake.

they are not "seemingly" "pushing the limits" they acted illegally then when a judge told them to stop they ignored the order illegally. they are criminals, doing crimes
