You won't commission an Etsy witch cause "it's silly", but you'll decorate a dead tree inside your house with lights and ornamental animals? Okay. Guess you hate women in the workforce.

"Last year, under President Joseph R. Biden Jr., 63 percent of those arrested by ICE had a criminal conviction, and 24 percent had pending criminal charges."

"ICE is arresting the worst of the worst."

Everything this administration tells us is a lie.

When the U.S. commits war crimes, acts of war, and meddles in the internal affairs of other countries, it jeopardizes our national security because it invites retaliation and sets precedence for others to follow suit.

HOT TAKE: reactionary politics are based on defence of petty capital, including "psychic capital". White privilege and TERF-style "womanhood" are psychic capital in that if you possess them, you get status and material rewards, and you will fight anyone trying to devalue it. Landlords are obvious.

If they cancel your favorite TV show, but then you get a movie where a beloved character dies, do you call it a Wash?

Being broke was lit when all you needed was $20 to have a great time.

The issue about killing the last 2 survivors is secondary: Trump and Hegseth have ordered *83* murders, not 2.
None of these people were ‘enemy combatants’.
They were suspected drug smugglers until proven to be guilty in a fair trial.
Without that, they were murdered.
That is all.

Byron would’ve been on every social media and dating app, but William Blake would only have been on Bluesky

Last week, ICE arrested and separated a father and son after a routine check-in. Six-year-old Yuanxin had just enrolled in the first grade at an elementary school in Astoria. Now he's in custody, alone. ICE won't say where. This cruelty serves no one. It must end.

Some kind of verb
Some kind of moving thing
Something unseen
Some hand is motioning
To rise, to rise, to rise

Too fat, fat you must cut lean
You got to take the elevator to the mezzanine
Chump, change, and it's on, super bon bon
Super bon bon, Super bon bon

I hope someone draws this wonderful story about Tom Stoppard's Arcadia and the power of the arts to help us see things differently, to the attention of our Education Secretary. Do read it, it will lift your spirits.

Great culture can save lives. Literally.

Amazing letter in today’s @thetimes.com about Tom Stoppard

Wow. $1000.
Whooptie-do.
“Recent studies say that Trump’s 2025-era tariffs cost the “average” U.S. household $1,200–$3,800 this year.”

“Nonpartisan and academic sources show that the annual cost to the average American household ranges from $1,600 to $4,900.”

This tired, deeply-damaged man is so needy. He has to have references to him being president on his hat, on his shirt, and on a golf-framed placard next to his overcooked cheeseburger he's almost too-out-of-it to eat.

the parable where the guy refuses help in a flood, saying god will save him, drowns, and asks god why he didn't help, and god is like "i sent you a raft, i sent you a helicopter..."
except it's christian right college students ignoring every attempt to get them to open their minds slightly.

Click through and read the assignment feedback, which was constructive, kind, and frankly very gentle. Suspending the instructor over this is a deranged overreaction in support of a clearly bad faith student, and the university choosing this action is once again another stain on higher education.

My dad and I were fascinated by a car next to us at the tip which had gull wing doors. We were watching as the driver opened the doors and then knocked their head on the edge, and then as it drove off it turned out to be a Tesla Model X. We are currently in hysterics

LSU is paying its previous football coach over $50 million NOT to coach there while likely guaranteeing Kiffin something approaching double that, all while having an academic hiring freeze and budget cuts across the board. What is the purpose of a university (rhetorical)?
