just saw someone call Kash Patel “J Edgar Boozer” and need to lie down

Ex Deputy National Security Advisor for Strategic Communications and Speechwriting under Obama👇🏽

(not mutually exclusive)

Spot on.

I keep coming back to this. It's such a huge wall between me and those whom I've loved.

😭😭😭

OK for fun: top funniest tweet ever? I am torn between "moon's haunted" and "Denise I was at your wedding."

Cats, probably

You’re literally lading them!

3A8, though if raw onions and pickles were available…

Optical illusion of a woman bent over some papers. Her sunglasses are pushed up and she is wearing a hair band so the top of her head looks exactly like a Muppet face

Sorry I know the world is in a terrible fix but I've been laughing at this for ten minutes now

Poetry is a bird
perched lightly on the back
of all that is fickle
and dangerous in this world...

have to endorse this important message. the mango flavor distribution runs from "mild upgrade on cantalope" to "proof of the existence and boundless love of God"

ok the full clip is way better than the little one going around. her whole team try to get her to bail on the event and she's like no, I came to speak. incredible example.

Every social theory undergirding Trumpism has been broken on the steel of Minnesotan resolve. The multiracial community in Minneapolis was supposed to shatter. It did not. It held until Bovino was forced out of the Twin Cities with his long coat between his legs. The secret fear of the morally depraved is that virtue is actually common, and that they’re the ones who are alone. In Minnesota, all of the ideological cornerstones of MAGA have been proved false at once. Minnesotans, not the armed thugs of ICE and the Border Patrol, are brave. Minnesotans have shown that their community is socially cohesive—because of its diversity and not in spite of it. Minnesotans have found and loved one another in a world atomized by social media, where empty men have tried to fill their lonely soul with lies about their own inherent superiority. Minnesotans have preserved everything worthwhile about “Western civilization,” while armed brutes try to tear it down by force.

Last week in Minnesota, I watched ordinary people risk their lives to protect their neighbors. In the process, they not only won a significant—though not final—victory against authoritarianism, they proved virtually every MAGA social theory wrong. (gift link) www.theatlantic.com/ideas/2026/0...

Here's a regular white guy (literally "Chad") not a protester. because, "It seemed pointless, or just a way for people to expiate their sense of guilt." Chad witnessed something shattering. And, that all changed in a moment.

Excellent article!

I just woke up from a nap and somehow while I was asleep, everyone on the bus has figured out we are not going to the right place

The image shows the hourglass shape of the length of the day and night over the 365 days in 2025. Diagonal bands indicate when the Moon was up in the night sky.

Happy new year! My all sky camera imaged the sky every 15 seconds and this picture shows what happened in the sky in 2025. It shows the length of the night and day with the hourglass shape, the monthly lunar cycle with the diagonal bands, the elevation of the Sun at local noon, and lots of clouds.

Some Dems have told themselves only ~1% of the population is trans so they can dip their toe in the anti-trans filth and come out clean.

I don't have any trans family members—but it still makes me irate. I see it as a huge red flag, a sign you are unprincipled and untrustworthy. And I'm not alone.

Holy shit this is relatable!

Is it Fallout New Vegas time again? It has been a while since I've killed and eaten Caesar in a most satisfying way.

WILD game to end on! I was going to gush about it but just realized it might spoil the game if someone wanted to watch the vod.

Agree and also Mars, the Bringer of War from this series is definitely one of the all time classical bangers

InFURiating that we all have to write/think/talk about vaccines this much, outside of celebrating new successes (HPV vax largely *eliminating* cervical cancer, my god), this shit was settled as one of the great scientific and public health triumphs EVER and now these dipshits are trying to ruin it

To pull this off I had to write in a unique format a regular expression pattern matcher to automatically exclude any of our domains or commercial partners from being operated on by Ublock Origin. That was the only way this is gonna work. And I did.

Using knowledge I gained at 14 editing Wikipedia.

“Prohibited words and concepts: Equity, diversity, & inclusion; anti-racism; Bias; Critical race theory; implicit bias; oppression; intersectionality; prohibited discriminatory practices; racial privilege; promoting stereotypes based on personal identity characteristics.”

This week, I withdrew from a speaking engagement at a public university because they sent me a list of prohibited “words & concepts.” I will not humor this censorship. It does a disservice to the stories I’m discussing & the audience, who deserve unfettered access to information & conversation.

AOC to @pabloreports.bsky.social : A swastika is one of the clearest symbols of hatred in all of humanity… to remove that designation… indicates a possible collaboration with those very elements, which I think is genuinely frightening to any American.
