I didn't know I could hold my breath that long lol
You are not tripping. It's been broken all day....
Hahaha lol. This.
I did appreciate the Russian doll with Orbán on the outside and Putin inside at the Tisza party 😀
Excellent analysis here, worth a read.
I live walking distance from several Haitian restaurants & bakeries, two Jamaican spots, a Dominican place, a Trinidadian spot & many more local businesses owned by immigrants or their children. I love to hear their voices, their accents, their languages. What a blessing. Fuck that guy.
This &, male citizens commit the vast majority of violent crimes in this country, but the crimes that get the most attention are the outliers—crimes by undocumented folks (vanishingly rare) & crimes by women (often victims of IPV). Male citizens doing violence...crickets.
Also full no-fault divorce became legal in all fifty states during the time period 1970-2010. Forty years!
Suicide rates among women dropped 10-20%, DV/IPV dropped 30%, and 10% fewer women were murdered by their husbands.

People who can afford Boston Red Sox tickets often have a household income over $100,000, are typically aged 45–65, and are gainfully employed, often possessing significant disposable income. While average ticket prices in 2024 were roughly $64.68, high demand and premium pricing often cater to affluent locals, tourists, and families, with higher costs for weekend games. Key Demographics and Characteristics Income & Employment: The audience often consists of households with $100,000+ income and high disposable income. Age Range: A significant portion of the fanbase, particularly those buying premium seats, falls within the 45–65 age range. Location: While a large portion is local to New England, the high tourist volume in Boston makes it a major attraction for visitors. Fanbase Diversity: MLB fanbases, including the Red Sox, are largely composed of Caucasian (roughly 69%) and Hispanic (nearly 19%) demographics.
About the booing of Michelle Wu: the "haves" can't stand a mayor who's looking out for the "have-nots." I think Wu is doing alright. #Boston
Reelecting Orbán and reelecting Trump, expect the same process. John Oliver discusses the elections on the horizon for Viktor Orbán, the prime minister of Hungary and the longest serving current head of government in the EU, why conservatives in the US are so invested in him maintaining power.
Must see TV. Please watch and share.
These are dark times and I find many of the explainers by John Oliver to be valuable.
The laughs are a spoonful of sugar to help the medicine go down.
Is this extortion?
EU: We're going to develop sustainable clean energy infrastructure and reduce our dependence on fossil fuels.
Russia: Buy our fossil fuels or else. *Invades Ukraine*
Vance to EU: See what you made them do?

Most of GOP love Orban's Hungary, despite (maybe because of) ties to Russia, & definitely because they want to remake our liberal democracy into an illiberal "democracy." It's been out in the open for all to see—for years—if only we'd look.
Oh @mcsweeneys.net, you never miss. Needed this today, thanks!
This is correct.🍇🍇🍇
Hopefully it's just more stock market manipulation. At least that's less likely to kill anyone.
Jack Goes Boating gutted me. What a performance.
I migrated away from Threads and came here and haven't looked back. I just can't fuck with Meta. I like it here...and it doesn't seem die-ey to me.
Lol no shame... I'm always thrilled to find you in my inbox, typo or no typo!
Lol, I love that quote, "Coach, I am running full speed!"
