It's a special time for Cons and the alt-right: doing mental gymnastics to hate a movie they haven't seen yet for showing Superman saving people and having strong moral values

It's a sign of fragility, showing your hand so early in a narrative. If you've been complaining about how "woke" Gunn's new Superman movie is before you've even seen it, you're just doing what you're told like a good little follower

Anyone who thinks ANY social media is anything but echo chambers full of emotional toddlers screaming past each other in highly controlled conditions designed for conflict that enforces their own narratives is most likely not making any money off of social media

Laura Loomer‘s tweet: Alligator lives matter. The good news is, alligators are guaranteed at least 65 million meals if we get started now.

The entire Latino population in the U.S. is 65 million. She means all of us.

There is silver lining to bombing Iran. More Americans will be able to point it on a map, we generally only learn about foreign countries when we bomb them... here is Geography 201 - how big is Iran.

Iran covers one-sixth of the land area of the United States, nearly as large as the Alaska.

Here's an entertaining cite at the bottom of the first page

Me, after explaining the $5 coffee a lawyer I’ve known for years and went to law school got me was a gift from someone I had a pre-existing non-business relationship with and not a conflict of interest to the government’s auditors:

“THE PRESIDENT WAS GIVEN A WHAT?”

It was a movie that could have passed as a stylish flash in the pan but Del Toro had the wisdom to give the lead role to Ron Perlman who made it his own, as well as cast other strong character actors for support

Harvard Plans to Use Trump’s Haste Against Him as It Fights Funding Cut Harvard’s lawyers suggest the administration was sloppy when it froze billions in federal funding. A mundane but crucial law is essential to the university’s case against the government.

Trump officials tried to reopen negotiations in recent days, but Harvard refused. Instead, the university has accused the administration of breaking the law.

I'm not saying Trump's tariffs are stupid, that goes without saying. I'm saying it's FUCKING HILARIOUS that a man elected on the "strong on the economy" platform has his stooges ask ChatGPT to throw together ill-advised tariff plans at the last second, after Trump talked about it for a year

Remember when everyone complained that the black lady didn't have a detailed economic plan and instead chose Trump because he was "strong on the economy"? 🤣

"The report found that more civilians were killed in the first week of the Trump administration’s bombing campaign than were killed in the 12 months of US- UK strikes on Yemen that were conducted under the Biden administration from Jan 2024 to Jan 2025."

The Signal chat was bad. This is worse:

They're "only taking convicted criminals" and "will charge a fee for that." So the U.S. is outsourcing private prisons to places where inmates are not protected by the Constitution, gotcha.

Former US attorney for Eastern District of Virginia Jessica Aber found dead at 43 Jessica Aber, former U.S. attorney for the Eastern District of Virginia (EDVA), was found dead Saturday morning, the Alexandria Police Department said. She was 43 years old. The cause and circumstance...

It never got a lot of attention, but Aber put a WHOLE LOT of child predators w/ties to law enforcement in prison.

This is where America will fall behind the fastest: biomedical research and development

Newborn babies exposed to measles in Texas hospital Infants barely three days old are receiving antibody injections to help protect against the virus. Nearly 300 cases have been reported in the outbreak.

Prague, 23 November 1911 Highly esteemed Mrs. Curie, Do not laugh at me for writing you without having anything sensible to say. But I am so enraged by the base manner in which the public is presently daring to concern itself with you!? that I absolutely must give vent to this feeling. However, I am convinced that you consistently despise this rabble, whether it obsequiously lavishes respect on you or whether it attempts to satiate its lust for sensationalism! I am impelled to tell you how much I have come to admire your intellect, your drive, and your honesty, and that I consider myself lucky to have made your personal acquaintance in Brussels. Anyone who does not number among these reptiles is certainly happy, now as before, that we have such personages among us as you, and Langevin(3) too, real people with whom one feels privileged to be in contact. If the rabble continues to occupy itself with you, then simply don't read that hogwash, but rather leave it to the reptile for whom i

einstein sent this to curie in 1911 when she was being harassed by tabloids. it contains everything you’d want in such a letter:

(1) your haters are trash
(2) you’re a baller, a true queen
(3) i have determined the statistical law of motion of the diatomic molecule in planck’s radiation field 🧪⚛️

Hundreds of thousands of people have taken to the streets of Belgrade, Serbia, demanding the resignation of pro-Russia President Aleksandar Vučić.

Budapest today. People are demanding that PM Orban resign.

like i said, BITCH,

"It ain't a war crime the first time."

Or any time after this, apparently. . .

It's woke to not be on fire

Remember when Trump rage-Tweeted that any President that let the Dow drop 1,000+ points in a day should be immediately impeached?
