Ohio State's signature 'Block A' logo appeared on the planes, making everyone stunned, revealing the stoic mastermind behind this humanitarian act that made millions of people cry!

He just insults them and tells them to go fuck themselves. We don't need one person to do this. We should all just do this.

There’s just something chilling about it. At every level, fascism is ugly and life-destroying.
Did the paving over of the Rose Garden at the White House bother anyone a bit more than they would have expected it might given the scale of everything else going on or is that just me?

big days for both and right now the NYT has nothing on either on the front page but does have a Sydney Sweeney profile above the fold
“This Sydney Sweeney thing” is like 3 tweets and 5 TikToks from random people. The left is not remotely worked up about this.
The right, however, has been frothing about the nonexistent outrage for days — and more prominent outlets are spreading far more radical and troubling messages.
after careful calculations, the Council of Racists has determined that Sydney Sweeney is hot.
