Look at these dorks I love them so much

Look at these kids at a slumber party

This ceasefire doesn’t cancel out the fact that Donald Trump threatened a genocide of 93 million people in Iran. Republicans need to abandon their blind loyalty to the President and work with us to hold him accountable – whether it’s through impeachment or the 25th Amendment.

Hale's a good source on Vatican tea, by the way. if he says they took it as a threat, they took it as a threat

According to both Vatican and U.S. officials briefed on the meeting, Pentagon brass picked apart the pontiff’s January speech, reading it as a hostile message directed at Trump’s policies. What particularly enraged the Pentagon, one Vatican official said, was the passage in which Leo appeared to challenge the Donroe Doctrine—Trump’s update of the Monroe Doctrine, which asserts unchallenged American dominion over the Western Hemisphere. In his speech, the Pope declared: “A diplomacy that promotes dialogue and seeks consensus among all parties is being replaced by a diplomacy based on force, by either individuals or groups of allies.”

I was today years old when I learned they're calling it "The Donroe Doctrine" and that did make me want to walk into the ocean but "One Vatican official put it bluntly: 'The Pope may well never visit the United States under this administration'" won me back

... during Holy Week.

He fired the Chaplain. During Holy Week.

I hope this is driving home to folks that anti-DEI/anti-woke are functioning mostly as a way to make racism more palatable by framing it as a kind of defensive reaction to an imagined unfairness.

we gotta send so many guys to the Hague

I went back to capture what the astronauts said in full when the clock was stopped at T-10 minutes and they were asked if they were go for launch:

This is Victor. We are going for our families.
This is Christina. We are going for our teammates.
This is Jeremy. We are going for all humanity.

this morning anya taylor-joy was hit with a question that has never been asked before in the history of the universe

Afghan asylum-seeker dies in ICE custody, US advocacy group says Mohommad Nazeer Paktyawal is at least the 12th person to die ​in ICE detention this year.

He wasn't just an asylum seeker. Paktyawal was an Afghan special forces soldier who worked with the U.S. Army's 3rd Special Forces Group. He was evacuated on August 30, 2021, entered the U.S. legally and had a pending case with a work permit and social security number. Killed by ICE maggots.

They are all worth it!

I may be wrong, but it feels to me like reporters are giving Trump a lot more "Yeah, no, that's bullshit" responses now than they did just a few months ago.

Secretary of State Frank LaRose gives info of 8 million Ohio voters to Trump Justice Department • Ohio Capital Journal If you are one of Ohio’s nearly 8 million registered voters, your personally identifiable information like full name, address, date of birth, driver’s license and partial Social Security numbers may…

Commentary: If you are one of Ohio’s nearly 8 million registered voters, Sec. of State Frank LaRose just gave your full name, address, date of birth, driver’s license and partial Social Security number, to Trump's Justice Department ohiocapitaljournal.com/2026/03/11/s...

Trump has been giving his cabinet his favorite Florsheim $145 dress shoes and guessing their size. “Everybody’s afraid not to wear them,” a White House staffer said. So here’s Marco Rubio in January actually wearing shoes that have to be at least 2-3 sizes too big. Fascism = discomfort

A developer on Blind says coworkers now ship in an hour what used to take days (3 or 5 story points) thanks to Claude Code.

There’s pressure to move so fast you barely understand the code and feel like the bottleneck versus the AI.

This is going to create an interesting fallout across the industry

as any intellectual or student of history will tell you, middle east wars deal with problems once and for all

I think it's time to rewatch this clip from Jon Stewart's ‘The Daily Show’ in early June 2015 titled “America in the Middle East: Learning Curves are for Pussies”.

Trump doesn’t want Americans to know they’re in danger because he’ll look bad.

Words fail me when it comes to describing this sort of evil done very clearly and simply for evil's sake.

"Depravity" is maybe the only one that comes close

So, to wrap up today's insanity:

President Trump, who is deeply implicated in a pedophilia scandal involving his best friend, the sex trafficker, sent Attorney General Bondi -- who only has that job because Trump's first choice was also implicated in a separate pedophilia scandal -- to the House...

Need to stress that, like the Pretti killing, this terrorism is happening in extremely mixed use residential neighborhoods. Cafes and restaurants just down the street. The St. Paul Curling Club that's put out so many Olympians competing *this week* is like two blocks away.

You deserve access to abortion care if you are pregnant and do not want to be. Full stop.

Your reasons are your reasons and they are good enough.

Abortion is healthcare and everyone deserves healthcare access.

Imagine a President bulldozing 1/3 of our Historic White House pocketing $300 million and that doesn’t even crack the top 100 most destructive, vile, disgusting things he’s done, yet here we are

Screenshot of an X post from FactPost quoting Rep. Johnson questioning a proposal to require passports to register to vote, noting that many Americans do not have passports and asking whether the $150 passport fee would be waived to avoid creating an unreasonable poll tax. Below is a CNN screenshot showing a woman speaking remotely, with a banner reading: “DHS FUNDING TALKS AT A STANDSTILL AS DEADLINE APPROACHES.”

Thank you, Julie Johnson, for speaking out against the grotesquely misnamed SAVE act. We need you to keep fighting for us in the House.

Every photo from Minneapolis looks like this. Cops decked out with guns and full tac gear facing off against people in bathrobes, parkas, and sweatpants armed only with whistles and cell phones.

Yet every verified MAGA chode on X dutifully calls it a riot or violent insurrection.
