They told the Pope he doesn’t understand the Bible and then they quoted Pulp Fiction.

People seem to be sleeping on “New York’s Cutest,” and I mean, come on.

Mark Rufalo warns Congress against the Paramount-WBD merger:

"You don't have to watch 'Citizen Kane' or read '1984' to understand that the concentrated oligarchic control this merger represents is a threat to a free press, an informed populace & democracy itself."

I don’t think we should have made Donald Trump the president

My friends/family thought I was unreasonable for cutting people out of my life for voting for him. I think it was the most rational think I have done in my life.

Someone should release the Epstein files at 8pm est tonight.

We won't last 33 more months of this.

This must stop.

We must make it stop.

Tucker Carlson: "It's vile. It begins w/ a promise to use the US military to commit a war crime. Those people who are in direct contact w/ the president need to say 'No. I'll resign.

SNL UK is absolutely putting its American counterpart to shame dear lord

If we’re not in the middle of a fucking war then why is he comparing other wars timelines?

A firefighter in Istanbul performed CPR on a cat affected by a fire, bringing it back to life.😍👍💙

I know it’s competing with an illegal war and 10,000 other major scandals but I feel like people should be making a bigger deal out of the DefSec systematically trying to resegregate the military

Just so you understand, this is as if you prepared for argument in front of a panel that included Cookie Monster, and Cookie Monster asked you a question about cookies, and you had not thought about cookies in advance.

I mean there it is.

This is an excellent summary of current circumstances

Kyle Kulinski: “A sundowning president with Alzheimer’s who’s a malignant narcissist is dragging us into WWIII, committing war crimes on a daily basis and crashing the global economy, and nobody is actually grabbing the steering wheel.”

It must be *infuriating* to TSA agents, who are NOT getting paid, to see lazy ICE agents, who ARE getting paid, lounging about the airport and doing nothing to help either them or passengers.

Taking care of business. We need to do this and move on.

You could say that Rock n Roll was born 111 years ago today in Arkansas, but probably not where you'd think. Before there was a Chuck Berry or Little Richard, there was those who wanted to be like her.

Rosetta Nubin better known as Sister Rosetta Tharpe, the godmother of Rock was born on this day

So Apparently, Netanyahu has pestered the last several presidents to bomb Iran.

All of them said hell no.

So Lindsey Graham coached Net into how to manipulate President Pedo to get his project approved.

AI pilot program in L.A. County courts will help judges craft rulings in some cases A select panel of L.A. County judges now have access to an artificial intelligence tool that can help them summarize motions and draft rulings in civil court. The tool, Learned Hand, is already in use...

Civil court judges are testing a product, Learned Hand, to “rapidly distill hundreds of pages of legal motions and use samples of a jurist's writing style to help reach conclusions and even draft tentative rulings.”

Thanks for this, @samsteindc.bsky.social. It's really hard to keep track.
