fellas is it gay to live in a city

It only happened once

“Let’s do the fucking news” is a line they cut from Ron Burgundy.

On thing that really makes me trust my commitment to liberalism is that whenever anyone ever describes their vision of a "post-liberal" order it ends up being the most insane thing I've ever heard.

Every CEO involved in these "deals" should be prosecuted.

pete buttigieg in particular said outright "if elected president, i will appoint an AG who does not believe the president is above the law." before january 6th.

wizard frog is insane

They’re using American tax dollars to fund infrastructure in Argentina because that’s where they’re all going to flee when we kick them out of office

It's bleakly funny about how the GOP was able to form a multi-racial reactionary coalition largerly through the sheer power of anti-black racism in this country (and exploiting intra-Hispanic racism too), only to go "wait, we actually hate Hispanics too" at every opportunity

They ruined Google search for nothing

Mark Carney leads Pierre Poilievre in net favourability by 32 points Prime Minister Mark Carney leads Conservative Party leader Pierre Poilievre in net favourability by 32 points.

Mark Carney leads Pierre Poilievre in net favourability by 32 points

“Poilievre’s personal favourability remains poor, as the Conservative Party leader continues to struggle to resonate with Canadians.”

Repeat after me:

I am not hornier than Mark Carney.
I am not hornier than Tyler "Ninja" Blevins.
I am not hornier than Mr. Rogers.
I am not hornier than Rich Piana.

But if I stand back and watch and learn,
I will be hornier than I am.

Men would rather be on one than go to therapy

going to start using the trad buzzword of "false ecumenism" but to describe reactionary Catholics who make common cause with Evangelicals over their mutual bigotries devoid of any theological substance

it's pretty wild to be doing "stop being racist to my computer friend" discourse when the forces of Actual Racism are totally ascendant in government and inventing new ways to arrest people for their skin color every day

"Making fun of ai is racism" is honestly incredible discourse, 2010s Tumblr truly has found its spiritual successor

This site has the juice and is also never beating the allegations lmao

the "kid drowning while mom helps other kid" meme. The Mom is labeled "white evangelicals explaining the gospel," and she's focused on the kid labeled "the crucifixion." The kid drowning is "The resurrection." The forgotten skeleton at the bottom of the pool is "liberation."

Here’s an idea for a reporter:

Gather some retired cops or MPs together and show them how ICE handles hecklers and protesters.

I guarantee you’ll get some amazing copy. Especially if your outlet lets you reprint profanity.

Insanely stupid decision, and Robinson has plenty of ties to literal neo-Nazis.

we're getting, though, a sort of natural experiment in how well foreign governments can actually use secret intelligence

Really hard to overstate how much long-term damage the Israeli government is doing to their own country through this endless parade of violence and pariah-state behaviour

Humans: generally woke

Vulcans: invented woke

Klingons: anti-woke but funny about it

Romulans: anti-woke and always seething-mad about it

Ferengi: pretend to be woke (think Pepsi cop ad)

Andorians: SJWs

Borg: literally don't understand the concept of woke

Q continuum: extremely woke

Look, I don't know how you can think the drones over European airports is a media hysteria thing when Russia is doing wildly more aggressive things than fucking with airports and military bases with what I imagine are quadcopters

Macron remarks are notable- some quotes: "We have been incredibly naive in entrusting our democratic space to social networks that are controlled either by large American entrepreneurs or large Chinese companies, whose interests are not at all the survival or proper functioning of our democracies."

An internal Army memo reportedly says Anduril and Palantir’s battlefield communication system has deep flaws Filled with “fundamental security problems,” the system should reportedly be treated as “very high risk,” per the memo....

I did military comms, there is a reason the tech is 10-20 years behind civilian industry. Yes, the military loves to keep old shit, but that's secondary. Primarily, the certification process for everything from tactical satellite uplinks to RJ45 cables is mind-bendingly strict and exacting.

And meanwhile, over in actual moderation land, I've been waist deep in "It's alright to kill Jewish people in Manchester because of Israel" and let me tell you it's pretty fucking bad out there today when it comes to real issues.
