Him: <in German> “there are many Germans living in Argentina”

It took every ounce of restraint in me to respond (in German) “that is interesting” rather than “I know, I am Jewish.”

One in DC I was walking the dog (a sweet mastiff) by a hotel during the World Cup. Older couple was sitting on a bench outside. They called the dog over and were petting her. I tried to say hello. “No English,” husband said, pointed to the Argentina jersey he wore.

Me: “deutsch?”
Him: “ja”

If it were true there might be something to that, but I think it’s 100% sampling error and older journalists thinking the Elon Algorithm they’re marinating in on Vichy Twitter is the real world

I could watch a solid fifteen minutes of him flipping through papers, growling “ulrich… ulrich… ulrich…”

Yeah, and Rufus Sewell has utterly magnetic levels of charisma.

Certainly not.

Well akshully, the Peleus War Crimes Trial, prosecuting the massacre of shipwrecked sailors, did not distinguish between murder and manslaughter and just termed it “killing”

Captain Eck was executed tho.

Cool. More for the gallows once a court can be convened

What's changed is that the Court has become more transparent in its corruption. There's not even an argument here beyond the implicit one which is: how do you expect us to hold the House without those seats?

This ruling is deranged for a number of reasons, but one of them is that it embraces partisan gerrymandering as an affirmative good.

The jurists who signed on to it, sede vacante.

SUPREME COURT OF THE UNITED STATES No. 25A608 GREG ABBOTT, ET AL. v. LEAGUE OF UNITED LATIN AMERICAN CITIZENS, ET AL. ON APPLICATION FOR STAY [December 4, 2025] With an eye on the upcoming 2026 midterm elections, several States have in recent months redrawn their congressional districts in ways that are predicted to favor the State's dominant political party. Texas adopted the first new map, then California responded with its own map for the stated purpose of counteracting what Texas had done. North Carolina followed suit, and other States are also considering new maps.

ALITO, J., concurring First, the dissent does not dispute-because it is indis-putable-that the impetus for the adoption of the Texas map (like the map subsequently adopted in California) was partisan advantage pure and simple.

The fact that both the unsigned 6–3 majority opinion and Alito's concurrence (for Alito, Thomas, and Gorsuch) open with a reference to California's redistricting leaves one with the strong impression that this decision, like California's, is about tit for tat.

This is Galadriel’s husband. He’s in the LOTR movies.

Sue him for consumer fraud lol

Top Democrat files complaint over '60 Minutes' interview with President Trump Jamie Raskin wrote to CBS's ombudsman, a role created in an agreement with FCC during Paramount merger to address 'media bias'.

@raskin.house.gov: "President Trump directed CBS to edit his own interview after suing the network for editing his opponent’s interview, and CBS complied with his requests and omitted its anchor’s questions about President Trump’s pardons." @poynterinstitute.bsky.social mailchi.mp/poynter/top-...

lying is the tool of the enemy. your first duty is to the truth

"are you enjoying duo mobile" does a hamburger enjoy being made of quarks. does a fish enjoy linear time. does the mountain enjoy the first taste of a cup of hot chocolate when you get back to the ski lodge. your question means nothing to me. i couldn't enjoy duo mobile even if i tried

I think if you measure by “% of thoughts which are racist” the case is easy and almost inarguable. Like, Thomas Jefferson and Donald Trump are/were both racist pedophiles, but Jefferson at least had some other ideas rattling around in his head, too.

this really isn’t an exaggeration

Dumb question but wasn’t it named by act of Congress?

I have a toilet seat that costs about that much. It’s heated so no cold butt in winter, and has a very good bidet.

There is no reason to give a toilet WiFi or a camera. What is this madness.
