Two funny things I just found in my gmail spam folder:

1. A google gemini email
2. A notice about a class action lawsuit against Google

“The MAGA crowd is made of dumb people — like, SUPER dumb people. And they fall for it.”

For my @wired.com feature debut, I talked to Sam, a guy who made thousands of dollars on Instagram by scamming MAGA men with Emily Hart, an AI generated, Trump-loving influencer. www.wired.com/story/ai-gen...

A vaccine for Lyme disease could be on the horizon The vaccine candidate is the furthest any shot has gotten since the last one was pulled in 2002. Scientists are testing other ways to block infection.

Y'all I'm IN THIS STUDY!!!

Really I'm in it! I haven't been unblinded and I still don't know what I got but there's ME! Just a tiny little data point.

Good to hear, as a fellow GLP1 user, I always noted the Type insulin dependent notes in the GLP warnings - be careful of low blood sugar yada yada. Good to see it can help type 1.

I so don't want to add to The Discourse, but I do have to say that the use of a GLP-1 has been a miracle for my Type 1 diabetes (not even the kind that the drugs are made for). I am using half the insulin that I used to.

Inside the DOGE Takeover of the Federal Government In early 2025, Americans first learned about the takeover of the federal government by the so-called Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE). DOGE had been operating under a veil of secrecy, with l...

Trump just issued a last-minute warning to Virginians that if they vote YES on the redistricting referendum tomorrow, he will lose power:

“If the Democrats get additional seats, they’re going to be making changes at the federal level.”

The Extremes of Israeli Public Opinion Israeli voters are against a ceasefire with Iran, and think Benjamin Netanyahu has not gone far enough.

And for $20 million you can buy the naming rights to "wife of LA Clippers owner Steve Balmer"

Naming my security company after the giant evil eye that, crucially, was too distracted to see the actual threat sneaking in

I’m almost proud our conservative brothers and sisters are ACTUALLY reading the foundations our our western “civilization” ;()

CNN’s Harry Enten: “It is a blowout in the net popularity ratings. It’s not even close. It’s a nearly 50 point blowout amongst the American public at large. Pope Leo XIV absolutely crushing Trump when it comes to how popular they are.”

Just calling balls and strikes

Some guys have all the luck as an 80s song once mused.

Rep Justin Jones made a statement entrance, walking into the Tennessee legislature with an"Abolish ICE" flag. No subtlety. No backing down.🔥🔥

Kash Patel’s Erratic Behavior Could Cost Him His Job The FBI director has alarmed colleagues with episodes of excessive drinking and unexplained absences.

This is a big one. Stellar reporting from Sarah Fitzpatrick. To call it a must-read is an understatement: www.theatlantic.com/politics/202...

#Hogsbreath is too stupid to be the Secretary of Defense!

Graceland. When it came out, in 1986, it was quite a surprise, even considered "risky" and "experimental" by some people. Simon flirted with African-influenced music but the result was extremely successful; joyous and uplifting. Still a great listen after all these years.

Sonia girl you were right the first time

Why convert to Catholicism then say the Pope is wrong about theology?

If you want to be Christian without deferring to the Pope, there are many options.

Isn’t “the Pope is wrong, the Church is wrong, I’m interpreting scripture myself and communing directly with God” why we have Protestants?

polling must be wild

looking forward to alito declaring that our grand colorblind constitution means that white voters can permanently gerrymander racial minorities out of political representation.

ICE T @FINALLEVEL I do not give a flying FUCK about Fonts.... Weirdo shit. ... Marty Cheese, Katamari @trashcom • Mar 28 Replying to @FINALLEVEL Ice, what is with this FONT?! Love you man but come on, use Impact font.

There are funnier Ice T posts but I always find myself spiritually connected with this one

Truly remarkable how many people have told the Pope, in some way or another, to "shut up and dribble." Or corrected him on the Bible, despite their thin education on theology. Or told him to stay out of US affairs, despite him being a US citizen. The hubris is amazing.

Wait until he hears about Roundup.

You know I knew that Door Dash woman looked familiar

F-ing depraved. The IDF edited a photo of the journalist they assassinated and made it look like he was wearing a Hezbollah uniform. They explicitly state that it is legal in Israel to murder journalists. The entire Israeli state is a criminal enterprise.
