Secretary of War Pete Hegs... • © • 39m The War Department is once again restoring freedom to our Joint Force. We are discarding the mandatory flu vaccine requirement, effective immediately.
General George Washington required Continental Army soldiers be inoculated for smallpox. We would not have won independence if he hadn’t.
You dumb chucklefuck.
Let's call this policy what this is.
It's socialism. It's Leftism. And it's curing actual ills. Righting institutional wrongs.
It's not coming from someone who is infallible, or someone who is always correct.
It's coming from someone who promised to help and is trying to keep those promises.
Media needs to stop with "critics say" and just quote the actual language of the bill.
HB 249 creates a new category of "seminudity" which can be used to arrest women who aren't nude, but are wearing clothing — leggings, t-shirts without bras — that religious groups feel is too provocative.
I always thought Sun Tzu's "Art of War" was a little simplistic and obvious but it turns out yes, you do literally need to tell the Secretary of War "you need to feed your troops and keep them from being wiped out by preventable diseases"
age of electricity!! age of electricity!!
Tucker Carlson: I'II be tormented for a long time by the fact that I played a role in getting Donald Trump elected. We're implicated in this. I misled people.
It'd sure be nice if Kamala Harris' campaign organization wouldn't constantly promote Tucker Carlson, Alex Jones, Megyn Kelly, and whatnot. But oh well.
It bears repeating that historically, the #1 thing that keeps people alive in hard times and disasters is “the ability to play well with others”
For those attending the White House Correspondents' Dinner this weekend, a small question:
When you're sitting there at your table, do you think it'll cross your mind that the guest of honor is actively covering up his role in a massive child sex trafficking operation?
If you want to boil down John Browns message it isn’t “rebellion” it is “slavery is against gods laws and must be fought by any means necessary.“
It was not “vote against the chief executive who is a dang Cheeto”
it’s a great day for transphobes to eat shit
The first panel shows a crow with the title "How to live a good life". The second panel shows a crow cawing at itself in the mirror with the subheading "Make friends". The next panel says "Explore" and shows a crow looking into a commercial waste bin. The next says "Try new things" with a crow eating something vile. The next one says "Be curious" and shows the crow grabbing a hissing cat's tail". The final frame says "Get a hobby" and shows the crow looking closely at a book of matches.

The Onion has reached a deal to acquire Infowars
• It will be turned into a parody site of itself
• Has the support of the Sandy Hook families
“A lot of people gave up on doing the right thing over the last two years. Despite an insane amount of threats & bullshit, we persevered"
(via Variety)
This Is Just To Say

With the help of the Sandy Hook families, The Onion has reached a long-awaited deal to take over InfoWars.
We've enlisted the help of @timheidecker.bsky.social, who will be InfoWars' Creative Director.
Please stand by for more.
A clip from The New York Times reads: "But only the entities that officially paid the tariffs are eligible to recover that money. That means that the fuller universe of people affected by Mr. Trump’s policies — including millions of Americans who paid higher prices for the products they bought — are not able to apply for direct relief. The extent to which consumers realize any gain hinges on whether businesses share the proceeds, something that few have publicly committed to do. Some have started to band together in class-action lawsuits in the hopes of receiving a payout."
The average American family paid $1,700 in tariffs last year, according to the bipartisan Congressional Joint Economic Committee. Few will ever see any of that money back. The refunds will go to companies, if doled out at all. What a joke.
how is this literally happening in real life

Every AI commercial is like "Hey AI, what goes good on a sandwich?" and then the AI is like "Have you considered... cheese?" And then the narrator is like: THE FUTURE IS HERE.
I think about this all the time
Sunday scaries really hitting
Reminder that you can order pretty much any book you'd ever want via your local bookstore's online website — might be a buck or two more than Amazon, but well worth it to support local small business owners!
You look at Elon Musk's actual life and no amount of money would entice me to trade for that life. He is miserable and carries that misery around with him. That misery has taken over all aspects of his being. All that money and yet so so miserable.
Oh it turns out that vanquishing the college student who uses they/them in their email signature is not bringing you the fulfillment that you hoped for? You are still working in your crappy and unfulfilling job, paying a mortgage you now can't afford, and dealing with your annoying kids... I see.

Saw Vance make his 2012 season debut against the Pirates while we were in Pittsburgh for the weekend. He pitched pretty well in a game that the Phillies would ultimately lose. I always make a point to get photos of the scoreboard when I go to games because it’s super fun to Remember Some Guys
