Trump knows 1980 Carter style news won't happen - Trump's a Republican, and the mass media is owned by oligarchs.

That robot still looks like it has diarrhea, and it's sprinting for the nearest porta potty. All those humanoid robots look like they have diarrhea.

US style freedom of the press failed us, and hass continued to fail us, for at least since Reagan. Maybe it's oligarch owners, maybe it's trying to remediate "liberal bias" leading to actual conservative bias, but man, it ain't working.

Let me guess: it has to be used to report on the twin pillars of freedom and personal liberty

To be fair, Swalwell is a Democrat. Republicans, although they are thought to always hold the moral high ground, rarely police their member's crimes and ethical lapses. Comes with God being on your side.

That's the "Discover" feed. I was looking for more Jerry Chen posts.

A toad that appears to be orange in color. (At least to me, but I’m somewhat color blind) 😉

Saw an interesting toad and wanted to share it with the world. ✌️ #nature #toad

You hate to see it

Last month in The Onion:

You are going to be very popular in the FEMA Camps, more popular than most.

A picture of a library shelf with a small rolled up note on it. The note says “read this” in child’s handwriting.

A picture of the note unrolled. In the same child’s handwriting it reads “beware of the future!!”

Still thinking about this note I found in the children’s section of the public library when I worked there back in 2018. This kid tried to warn us…

There's a place in Denver called "Sweet Action". They have Stranahans Whiskey brickle. It's amazing.

U sukk

I flinched and groaned when I read this. Holy shit, I hope her ears are burning. Yikes.

That's Voltron, Defender of The Universe

Look closer. It's Epstein

Wow! How many colleges are there in Vermont?!?

Ra, god of the sun, projects his rays outwards, they are blocked directly by the moon, so his true rays do not reach Artemis II where a person is leaning out the window to take photos, instead Set, god of chaos and trickery, has a big mirror, and is sending his trickery-tinged light at artemis ii!!

There are people out there claiming some of the Artemis II photos are improbable, even impossible, so I made this graphic to clear up how space photography works

I think that Dorsey held off terms of service bans for the "alt-right" posters. Not only were conservatives not censored, they were treated well, given breaks others didn't get, like people who beat Bret Stephens in arguments.

Nixon knew it & compensated by making himself a LBJ, FDR, TR-class politician. He was a good practicing lawyer, a realist in foreign policy, & had the HOF skill to be what the public wanted before they knew it. Vance has none of this. He calculates by rubbing the same sticks at different angles.

I wish I'd though of this. It's absolutely true.

Good @mattpolprof.bsky.social look at anti-intellectualism of the right up through MAGA:

"We see this today in how DeSantis, Trump, and the MAGA intelligentsia obstruct ordinary people from thinking about the colonialism and slavery of the American founding."

Certainly an apt image to accompany the title.

My take is that the Hungarian people saw the first two Deuce Bigalow films and were determined to stop Rob Schneider’s eastward advance before he could complete the trilogy.

I'll never understand why ghosts are always the size of the person.

1) What law of physics could you, writer, possibly be adhering to

2) Jeff the ghost could be 30 feet tall??? Writer you are missing out
