Men will do ANYTHING to avoid couples counseling.

Cartoon titled "know the work rules". The first panel, labeled "appropriate" depicts Garfield the cat in a business suit leaning around the edge of a cubicle and pointing to a woman at her desk while saying, "coffee lasagna Mondays am I right?" to which the woman responds, hands clasped together, "awww you're so funny" The second panel, labeled "inappropriate", depicts a far side cow leaning around the edge of the same cubicle and speaking with a word bubble which contains only the shapes of the 4 cow tools. The woman fearfully picks up the Phone and says, "hello , complaint department??!"

Despite Promises, Veterans Affairs Department Cut Thousands of Roles for Doctors and Nurses

Got it. There's plenty of funding to send troops into harm’s way, but not to take care of their health afterwards. This is shameful.

Most telling part of this rant: That the war will go on until "we decide it is over," not until the aims of the war are achieved - because there are no stated aims; and Trump prefers having none, so any result will allow him to try to claim a "win."

sometimes a coworker will drop offhand a piece of lore that feels like finding an audio log in a survival horror game

It’s just such a silly argument. If people want to bring the country leftwards but think religious people shouldn’t be part of it they’re ignoring everyone from Martin Luther King to 3/4 of places where a country has moved leftward

47 years is the *opposite* of imminent (which means "something that will happen soon"). These people are so stupid.

most people don't think he's really a nazi, the central criticism is that he has disqualifyingly bad judgment and temperament for a prospective senator, which he objectively does, and this is why the obama boys want to make it about whether or not he's a nazi

got called "very stable" by a mental health professional, who i ALSO managed to make laugh. turns out you CAN get a good grade in therapy. just fyi

'those movies where people watch a video because it's supposed to make you die in a week are unrealistic' I say as I watch another person take a Chotiner phone call

Is it powered by ghonorrhea

My endorsements are insurmountable and that’s why I need the person I don’t endorse to please drop out immediately

it's okay to socially ostracize parents who won't vaccinate themselves or their children, in fact we should be doing it as a rule

It's quite normal for young soldiers to get dumb tattoos. It is not quite normal for young soldiers to get Nazi tattoos.

Learning that the abundance of Thai restaurants around the world is a direct result of the government of Thailand doing a sort of restaurant diplomacy makes me wonder why America can’t just do that, why can’t we make the burger to end all burgers instead of Henry Kissinger 2

It's too bad i'm not important enough for Isaac Chotiner to interview because i'm pretty confident I'd be the first person to come out of it looking pretty good

143M of your tax money went to a company that was 8 days old. 8 days old.

I forget who caved on that funding bill. It'll come to me.

boy that's a war crime

sorry we fired all the missiles. no, there won't be more missiles for a while. the missiles take a long time to make. in fairness you weren't supposed to use them all at once

Good plan, there’s no way that the US would ever betray Kurds who fought on their behalf, or that Turkey would be upset by and seek to frustrate any US-backed Kurdish forces, or that an invasion from Iraq would trigger Iranian nationalist opposition. None of those things have ever happened.

He's looking at the We Rate Wars Bluesky account

The reason why our stockpiles are seriously depleted is not because of Joe Biden. It is because the Iran War is the SEVENTH bombing campaign by Trump in the past year. And that doesn’t count the Venezuelan boats. bsky.app/profile/atru...

A cartoon from the 1950’s that’s more relevant than ever 💔

i love the handful of people responding to this to say that Dunks is bad coffee

i don't think they understand that New Englanders' affection for Dunks is only incidentally related to the quality of their products

gotta say, "the modern right is built entirely around vice signalling" seems like a theory with legs

We’re gonna need a bigger bus.

jesse singal suggesting that someone else has a professional stake in this is wild since it's the only story he's written in a decade

Odysseus had his crew lash him to the mast to keep him from doing an interview with Chotiner.
