16-year-old Gout Gout running a mind-blowing, blistering 200m in the Australian All-Schools Athletics Championships.

20.04!!!!! Australian record. Beats Peter Norman's 20.06 in 1968.

Usain Bolt's best run at the same age was only 20.13

Ro Khanna praising DOGE in a tweet

DOGE is a fake government agency designed to provide flimsy "innovative efficiency" cover to corrupt robber barons as they dismantle federal corporate oversight and sell the country for scrap off the back loading dock

any politicians or journalists helping the performance should be laughed at

Ugh FINE I'll show up to work "sober" to lead the department of defense. YES without "sexually assaulting" everyone, christ anything else?

For future use.

A thing everyone has forgotten is that Donald Trump basically sprang Roger Stone from prison so he could help with the coup and it was maybe a one day story.

I have reached the stage of life where I’m super excited about a new fridge…

Patel, whom the Department of Justice declined to prosecute in order to gain his testimony in a case they eventually also dropped, is now in line to run the entire FBI.

The entire Trump administration is lining up to be people Merrick Garland should have prosecuted, but didn't.

There is no “could”

Whose what?

The most horrendous, harmful stuff I've seen on social media this year has been the countless atrocities carried out by Israel and supported by its Western allies, like us. I would have opted for more pressure to end that, instead of just banning the ability for kids to become aware of the horror.

Well this is the best thing I’ve read in a while.

Labor has passed its proposed social media ban for under-16s. Here’s what we know – and what we don’t Australians may have to hand over more personal data and big tech firms face $50m fines, but there are a number of questions that are yet to be answered

Passing far-ranging laws without any idea how they will be enforced, kicking the can down the road and saying "we'll figure it out later, should be fine" - good thing that approach has never backfired before or had unintended consequences!!

Elon Musk Follow @elonmusk Vindman is on the payroll of Ukrainian oligarchs and has committed treason against the United States, for which he will pay the appropriate penalty 11:12 AM · 11/27/24 . 2M Views

anyother genuine question: treason is a defined crime. if Vindman lives in a per se state, does he have a defamation claim?

Elon Musk Wants To Wreck A Crucial Agency That No One Is Talking About Constitutional challenges to the National Labor Relations Board may end up before the Supreme Court, with grave implications for workers and unions.

Elon Musk's SpaceX and Amazon are trying to claim that a crucial agency is unconstitutional — and it could deal a major blow to workers' rights

Can’t decide what’s more embarrassing, this or Drake suing Kendrick

Trump announces plan to trash the USA economy.

Wow that’s a tough one

i think the part of all this that's been so hard to accept and has been so emotionally devastating is that even the ability to pretend that this country's ideas of equal protection and that "no one is above the law" are real is impossible because they're being refuted by our institutions

I think I would die if I got name dropped in the Simpsons

This really is quite extraordinary.

Dreyfus should have grabbed him on the way out of the committee room and sacked him on the spot.

But then Dreyfus was the one who thought him a great pick.

“Bluesky is an echo chamber,” he posted on Truth Social.

Whoops!

Oh, is Bluesky an echo chamber? Really? Are we missing out on the valuable contributions to human knowledge from people who post links to YouTube conspiracy videos and give their very important thoughts on White Birth Rates?

Wow, that's really sad. I'm so sad about that.

I suspect that some annoyed pundits are insistent in claiming Bluesky is a progressive bubble not because, as they believe, it’s hyper-partisan, but because for them, subconsciously, the remarkably civil tone of the platform feels coded as progressive. And that says quite a lot about their outlook.

Maybe I’m a sick weirdo and the only one who thinks this but I love the #NBA in-season tournament courts. They’re insane but endearing. I enjoyed most of them last year too.

Are we calling them skeets now? 😅

Trump’s election represents the triumph of normal Americans (a South African billionaire who does nothing but post all day) over unaccountable elites (a mid-level functionary in the EPA office of water enforcement with $25,000 in student loans)
