Oh he’s black. MAGA is going to shit itself empty.

I'm not loving a country that pays its adults half as much to teach children to spell as it does to kidnap them.

I think this is wrong. The right isn't even really mad about "social trends." It just WANTS to be mad, and it has propped up an enormous media and communications infrastructure to give it things to be mad about it. The social trends are a means to an end; the end is feeling enraged and resentful.

Yup. As I’ve said before, the right’s constant sense of grievance even as they control every branch of government stems from the fact that the base doesn’t really want specific policy reforms. They’re angry about cultural trends the government can’t really do anything about in a free society.

This is a great example of how conservative grievances are with society overall rather than government. It’s not even like a teacher told her; another student did! The only way around it is to police society so much that no child anywhere could learn about lesbians from anywhere and tell their kid.

Democrats are terrified of primaries.

And that's a mistake.

Vibrant primaries produce better candidates, stronger campaigns, new technology, and a lot of highly engaged activists.

It's good for the party overall—both in 2026 and in 2028.

Dear Humans,

Here’s how it’s going to play out:

1. Republicans are going to attack Joe Biden until his last day and giddily celebrate his passing.

2. Then when Donald Trump inevitably passes away, and the world celebrates, these same people will feign outrage until the end of time.

They suck.

Yep, this isn't surprising. Christian nationalists have never really cared about antisemitism or the Jewish people.

Table showing the massive cuts in federal science funding for EPA- 54.5%, NASA -24%. NOAA - 24%, NSF -56%, USGS- 38% etc.

This is just a partial glimpse of the destruction of American science by Trump and the GOP.

Great question

Nico has to take the shot with his right foot

“If the administration can process Afrikaners in three months,” says Yael Schacher, a director at Refugees International, “it’s inconceivable they can’t process people who have already been vetted, having applied years ago.”

I 100% believe that was a call they decided to overlook because they didn’t want to entirely tilt the final. Pick and choose when they can overlook rules 🤦‍♂️

There is perhaps 3 player on this squad who are good enough to play regularly for City. It's mostly has-beens or not-quite-ready players.

Absolute shit in defense

going to get pretty interesting when and if any of this particular set of refugees catches some charges

Washington Post, where ownership intervened to make the paper kiss up to Donald Trump, lost traffic.

Associated Press, which the White House banned for saying "Gulf of Mexico" and the rest of the press let flounder, gained traffic.

Media execs still say loss of public trust is from liberal bias.

Yeah, it does seem kinda bad for a newspaper owner to get into business with a guy who vivisected one of his opinion columnists.

Not defensively. Gvardiol has probably passed it directly to a Palace player at least 4 times already. Not even cut off by a Palace player, but literally to his feet like he was trying to pass the ball to Palace.

City are just shit this year.

Gvardiol has decided he's just going to give away the ball with every fuckin pass.

Of course lol. The City penalty curse continues.

At this point I have to question the intelligence of anyone who believes institutions can exist without implicit and explicit ideological boundaries in the first place. The ideological boundaries at UTAX were fully transparent, at least for anyone not blinded by disdain for progressives.

Lol handling the ball outside the box and it's nothing of course. Shit is rigged against city.

Akanji so weak in defending. Fuckin cowardly.

I'm so done with him bro. #CTID

👀 The Trump administration has been arguing that one of the people it deported to Mexico — despite fears of persecution — said verbally he was not afraid to go there. Now, in a late Friday filing, they say that was a mistake. storage.courtlistener.com/recap/gov.us...

Whatever the merits of the “Biden mental decline” debate may be (and there are very few given it is basically nothing more than a historical curiosity at this point), it is pretty clear to me that the people pushing the narrative are doing so in genuinely sociopathic ways

In Chicago, in 21 months, the AI-powered gunshot detection technology ShotSpotter generated more than 40,000 “dead-end police deployments”

89% of ShotSpotter deployments resulted in no gun-related crime

But the tool did cause the fatal police shooting of 13-year-old Adam Toledo.

Good. Rest in piss to the prematurely crowned Celtics dynasty.

You hang a Dear Leader banner on a federal building and #LordLaser is gonna have something to say about it.
