Fractures Emerge Between GOP’s Pro-Pedophilia, Extremely Pro-Pedophilia Wings

Going to hear this guy’s last name in Goofy’s voice forever and ever.

Is someone going to tell him that the flu killed more US troops in WWI than any battle did (and that war had chemical weapons so horrific that they were banned afterwards)?

“If we just got rid of all these people, think how easy for my son making friends will be!”

What Was Really Found in Capone’s Vault Forty years ago, and after much hype, little was discovered inside the gangster’s vault. Instead, it may have pried open Americans’ love of reality TV.

Happy 40th anniversary to the night we held our collective breath... and exhaled with disappointment.

Our look back at the opening of Capone's vaults on this day in 1986.

A paragraph from the article by Zimmerman in the Chronicle of Higher Education: Professors cannot fulfill their obligations to their students — and to our democracy - if they are not deeply committed to educating them. That means exposing them to a wide range of ideas, which was once the heart of the liberal ideal. But no longer. In a recent study, the political scientist Jon A. Shields and two colleagues surveyed course syllabi to see if professors who assigned Edward Said's Orientalism also asked students to read lan Buruma's and Avishai Margalit's Occidentalism or other critiques of Said. They also looked to see whether teachers teaching The New Jim Crow, Michelle Alexander's now-canonical account of racism in criminal justice, also assigned scholars who took issue with Alexander, such as the Yale Law School professor James Forman Jr. or the Princeton sociologist Patrick Sharkey. Shields' conclusion was sad and altogether predictable: These kinds of pairings, these efforts at fairness and complication, are extremely rare.

This paragraph shows how “both sidesism” continues to creep into modern thought. Complicating Said or Alexander’s arguments can be an important and worthy measure in the right class, but presenting a critique of a system does not necessitate and is not equal to critiques of that critique.

Incredible insight from the Cubs broadcast

Anyone who follows baseball knows that Bat/ball boys have an often thankless job. The Phillies, however, made a hype video for theirs, and I LOVE IT.

I study racist politicians from the Jim Crow era and this is on par with anything that John Rankin, Theodore Bilbo, or Cotton Ed Smith ever said in public

Making technology less efficient than what we already have just because you want to design it in a way that someday you can feel less creepy having sex with it.

There are few things you can say to a crowd that will get more cheers than “you’re smarter than everyone else.”

I don't recall any previous transformative technologies that had to be sold to the public so hard. No one in 1999 was going, "Guys. Cell phone? It's coming, whether we like it or not. I think it's important, FOR WOMEN ESPECIALLY, to learn about cell phone. So that we're not left behind!!"

Teaching children to speak their truth has unintended consequences.

Are you in luck!

Text from the article: The department said its officers carried out surveillance and identified the suspect, later sharing footage allegedly showing Augustine purchasing the sets. They said he was charged "for grand theft and booked at the Orange County Jail." The footage also showed dozens of mini-figures in bags, with cops saying the act amounted to "what we are calling a pasta-tively terrible plan." "If your master plan involves swapping LEGOs for linguine, we can promise your plan will be cooked al dente." Officer Ziggy Azarcon told CBS News, "These were definitely sets that were consistent with what he was purchasing and then returning." "These were Star Wars sets and Marvel sets, which have a very high value on the secondary market."

The most offensive thing about that story is that the arresting cops are trying to be noodle humorists:

Chuckie from Good Will Hunting, played by Ben Affleck, asking "You know what the best part of my day is?"

Chuckie from Good Will Hunting, played by Ben Affleck, saying "It's for about ten seconds: from when I open BlueSky and it's broken and I'm waiting for it to load."

Chuckie from Good Will Hunting, played by Ben Affleck: "'Cause I think maybe it'll never load and they'll never fix it and you won't be there."

Exactly one year ago today:

Pete Hegseth spent millions on steak, crab legs and lobster: report Open the Books says the Pentagon spent millions on food in September 2025, including lobster tail, Alaskan king crab and rib-eye steak.

I guess the surf and turf was not for the enlisted troops…just the brass.
