What...so now I'm NOT supposed to read every post with the hashtag #Periander? I'll probably be sitting here all day because of you.

I don't understand why he was allowed to run in 2024 if he was still claiming that he had been elected twice.

Bananas.
Just astoudingly nuts.

Here's a law prof's take:

Yet compared to the main character in Scandal, she's wise as the Buddha.

Please enjoy this turtle being given the gift of speed, and immediately using it to chase a kitty

Did no one at CBS consider monetizing the videos online?
Plenty of people would love to hear what Colbert has to say in the morning, or in the afternoon. Advertisments on CBS's website instead of YouTube would generate a ton of money, but no one is going to subscribe to Paramount Plus to watch it.

Some are born great, some achieve greatness, and some have greatness thrust upon them.

Is there a reason I can't see what he wrote in the archives? Were those posts removed?

“The New York Times collaborated with a white nationalist eugenicist hacker and agreed to keep his identity a secret to publish a Zohran Mamdani hit piece” is a way bigger story than “18 year old Zohran Mamdani ticked ‘African American’ on his Columbia application because he was a citizen of Uganda”

Congratulations!
Wish we'd had a chance to try to entice you to Marshall.

Can we stop pretending that the voters believed anything Trump said in the campaign? They didn't care about policies, or they would have questioned the tariffs. They just needed superficial reasons for rejecting the black candidate and/or the woman candidate.

That's really quite clever rhetorical technique:
Brush off the question and then slather bullshit all over the next 60 seconds so that there won't be a soundbite of the interviewer's reaction to the brush-off answer.

Plato's Cave allegory, illustrated. the shadows on the cave wall are captioned "increasingly insane and extreme positions", the prisoners labeled "internet users", the figures holding the shadow's shapes labeled "algorithms", the fire labeled "random internet users expressing their idiosyncratic beliefs". the space above the cave is labeled "literally just outside" and the philosopher freed from the chains of the physical world labeled "guy who logs off"

They'd call Reagan a communist.

Come on, guys! It is essential that our elementary school kids learn that the Sabbath day must be kept holy. How are they supposed to learn morality if they don't acknowledge that there is only one god, the god of the ancient Israelites? This is *exactly* what our schools need. Not math and reading.

When the Cass Review came out last year, the NYT rushed to cover it complete with post notifications. After reviews in Germany and Utah came out supporting gender affirming care for trans youth, dead silence. You can be just as biased in what you don't cover as what you do.

Maybe you should send notes like this to Kristi Noem each week to help her understand the basic concepts that she needs to know in order to do her job.

Is there a place trans healthcare is not abysmal? I don't know anyone anywhere who didn't have to wait years.

How do I ask Anonymous to get the list of donors to GiveSendGo's fundraiser for that Nazi playground mom in Minnesota?

I suspect that it's not just small donations from a bunch of racists, that some big donor racists wanted to see it make her rich.

Nothing silences worrisome thoughts like getting on a whaling ship.

I know what you're thinking: Whaling is bad. We should be protecting the whales.
But understand this: You don't need to kill the whales. You can use a whaling ship to watch them swim around happily.

There isn't enough Purell in the world after shaking that slimy hand.

Huh. I did not expect Vance to murder the Pope.

Only because the idiots charged him with murder. If they had stuck to the charge of taking a gun into a situation illegally and causing it to escalate, he would have done jail time. He put himself in a situation requiring self-defense because he was hoping to shoot protesters. Don't defend him.

1. Trump can't admit mistakes.
2. The longer the crisis and the lower the market goes, the more shares his friends can buy on the cheap. The plan is to concentrate wealth even further than it already is.

I can't wait until the Republicans pass a bill allowing presidents to run for a third term and then Obama beats Trump's ass.

If you're 60, 69.1% of all job growth since your birth occurred under Democratic administrations.

If you're 45, that number is 74.7%.

If you're under 30, the number is 100%.

There is no mechanism for removing a member state from the NATO treaty.

But...all of the other NATO countries could withdraw from the treaty and then recreate an identical treaty without inviting the US (or Hungary). They could even include a clause allowing Ukraine to join despite the war.

She literally has them surrounded. Can't she use their dependence on her city to make them give the appropriate funds? Raise the fees for motorcades? Refuse them permits for events? Charge government buildings more for utilities?
