Boiling Water The corrosive damage cause by forcing people to defend their own lives by debating ideas that have already been defeated.

Imagine you have a friend. Let’s call him Rick Reasonable.

Now imagine you have an enemy. Let’s call your enemy Bart B. Oilingwater.

Bart is a real piece of crap. Whenever he sees you, he throws boiling water at you.

If I never have to hear about Spotify Wrapped again, it will be too soon. It's just a fake made up thing by a corporation like Prime Day

This man may be the most racist president this country has ever had, and twelve presidents owned slaves

Is there a statute that says a law is not a law unless it has a wet ink signature from the President?

Awful taste but great execution? The sheer amount of work that must have taken.

Feliz Navidad, which I guess counts as religious. It’s got a nice beat and I can dance to it.

And secular, The Old Bar by Trans Siberian Orchestra. I consider that secular, anyway. It’s also the song I thing that best embodies “the spirit of Christmas” in my opinion

I have an idea and bear with me here: Tar Varlon Presents a BG3 Playthrough

"Western civilization," the font, the 11 stars - 11 states in the confederacy, for the record.

Why is this never news? Why are we letting our government agencies do this sort of thing while the news agencies report on hallucinated trade deals and act like everything is normal

On “The Necessary Conversation” podcast, Chad’s Trump supporter parents tell him the military should follow Trump’s illegal orders and kill everyone in LA if Trump commanded it — even with him and his sister in the city😳

One thing I’ve learned from Facebook is that, no matter where you live, the drivers there are worse than anywhere else.

A reminder for those who are not aware: "remigration" is the process of deporting all non-white people from a country. It includes citizens and is, by definition, ethnic cleansing.

And to be clear: this is not fake. I just screenshot it myself.

I also can’t get past this castle being named New Carfax Abbey. Now that’s some product placement!

(Yes, I know, just give me the joke)

Yeah I definitely remember this scene in the wine cellar, but I could not tell you a thing about the rest of this movie.

To be clear, no quarter without warning AT SEA is worse and undstood to be bad for a VERY LONG TIME.

I’ve started watching The Invitation, I’m not sure why but I think the trailer might have looked interesting, and I’m thinking I might have seen it before?

Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth gave a spoken directive, according to two people with direct knowledge of the operation. "The order was to kill everybody," one of them said. A missile screamed off the Trinidad coast, striking the vessel and igniting a blaze from bow to stern. For minutes, commanders watched the boat burning on a live drone feed. As the smoke cleared, they got a jolt: Two survivors were clinging to the smoldering wreck. The Special Operations commander overseeing the Sept. 2 attack - the opening salvo in the Trump administration's war on suspected drug traffickers in the Western Hemisphere — ordered a second strike to comply with Hegseth's instructions, two people familiar with the matter said. The two men were blown apart in the water.

It really bugs me that @hbomax.bsky.social doesn’t have a way to tell what’s been recently added to their catalog. It’s all “Our top 10 picks for you” algorithmically generated stuff.

Because his stroke has made him unsteady and he can’t stand or walk well

You can mount up inside the tents if you wiggle around a bit. I first did the heart before I’d unlocked that mastery.

They demolished the East Wing and they don’t even have plans drawn up yet.

So many men go through life like that. You can play poker because it's right-coded, you can't enjoy fruity alcoholic drinks because they're women-coded, you can't lick an ice cream cone because it's gay-coded. All day, every day, choosing and judging things based on coding for narrow norms.

It’s kind of annoying this article says nothing about what these “healthier snacks” would be. I’m surprised we’re not already charged $8 for the half cup of soda and half oz bag of pretzels we get now. What does this reality tv show guy want, a green juice and sous vide egg bite?

What time do you get in?

I feel like this is the cake from a gender-reveal party, just in reverse, somehow.

If AI is going to be consuming resources at an exponential rate like this, perhaps we should … not allow them to do so?

You ever get cum in your eye, Charlie Brown? Hmm? It burns!

The only thing I have to say about the Twitter location scandal is that TikTok was forced to sell itself because foreigners could have used it to influence the American people.

I just noticed a serving size of chili crisp is two tablespoons and apparently I’m a weakling.
