Probably smells like Trump

This was a carnival float in Germany. This is how the rest of the world views The United States now.

A year ago, I stood before you and asked a provocative question:

After we have discriminated against, disparaged, and deported all our immigrant neighbors — and the problems we started with remained.

What comes next?

The question of our time is how do you artistically rebel — and win — against a totally flat cultural landscape? And before my readers, who I assume are all approximately 36 years old and very tired, say, “so what, who cares?” This does matter. I mean, just look around right now lol. You know things are bad when even OpenAI President Greg Brockman is posting stuff, like “Taste is a new core skill.” If people had taste, your company wouldn’t exist, Greg. But if everything is just attention now, and attention is completely commodified by algorithmic tech platforms, how can you push back against that? Well, I am slowly coming around to a theory on the new cool: You have to essentially pre-deplatform yourself. Culture right now is determined not by human teams of editors and producers picking and choosing what youth culture gets the spotlight, but, instead, by the unthinking algorithms that power YouTube and TikTok. Which means the only things that have the level of scarcity and danger required to be seen as cool by young people will, slowly, but surely, be whatever is unacceptable on those platforms.

A post so smart I'm almost afraid to share it.

I just want to point out that’s Doug Wilson speaking at the Pentagon. Doug Wilson wants: the 19th amendment repealed, non-Christian religions outlawed, the death penalty for homosexuality, women barred from working or holding office, blasphemy laws, and one party theocratic rule.

Alright Texas! Early voting has officially started. It’s time to show this nation exactly what Texas is made of. Make a voting plan—get to the polls and make your voices heard.

They all lie so much they can’t keep track of their lies.

Almost makes me want to reactivate my account just to be mean to him.

First rule. Never make nice with a wannabe dictator or any other bully. Punch them in the mouth.

Heritage should be deported

There are very few free speech absolutists. Just a lot of liars.

This richest man alive is responsible for the deaths of nearly a million of the poorest people alive. And he's telling us he's just getting started.

Looking at that interview I think dogs should sue them for defamation.

Trump Appoints His 26-Year-Old Ex-Receptionist to Commission Overseeing White House Ballroom Construction President Donald Trump has appointed his 26-year-old receptionist to the arts commission tasked with overseeing the construction of his White House ballroom.

Any Democrat running for President in 2028 must pledge that, if elected, he or she will immediately tear down/demolish Trump’s grotesque, un-American ballroom. This must be a basic minimum requirement of anyone who wants to be the Dem nominee in 2028.👇 www.mediaite.com/media/news/t...

I believe I could keep up with curling. But then I pulled a hamstring playing ping pong so I'm not even sure of that.

I regularly see people wondering how it's possible that there are so many musicians and writers and film makers and artists from a tiny nation like Iceland.

And the answer is really simple: State funding for art education and artists. I literally get a salary from the government to write books.

this image looks like it's from the Terminator's POV and he's found the golden retriever he was sent back in time to kill

Pardoning drug lords but deporting sick little kids straight from the hospital really sums the whole thing up doesn’t it

So after Trump pardoned Honduras's narco-president, the admin didn't just let him out--they canceled an immigration hold and sent a specialized team to **chauffeur him to the $1k/night Waldorf Astoria.**

“It's "absolutely fucking nuts,” said one official

I hate these smug fuckers who spout utter bullshit while smiling like chipmunks on dope. And they just get invited on to shows where no one challenges their bullshit.

Real insane part of this clip is Hassett saying in the beginning that NY Fed researchers “should be disciplined” for…writing an economics paper that comes to a conclusion the president dislikes? A conclusion that matches the vast majority of economic evidence on tariffs? Nuts

Maybe run a candidate who seems to have core principles instead of pollsters.

The governing part was fine. The messaging was and is horribly incompetent.

notorious radical left communist rag says tax the rich

Does Putin own Trump, or does Trump just want to be Putin?

Doesn't matter. He's still a Russian asset.

Once again--Trump is weakening Ukrainian air defense to help Putin kill Ukrainian civilians and damage Ukrainian infrastructure.

How many times does this need to be said before people will get it.

Doesn't that seem a bit 2012ish though?

Jeffrey Epstein’s reported financier, Les Wexner, is set to give a closed-door deposition with the House Oversight Committee today at his home in Ohio.

For all that screeching about “transparency,” Republicans sure seem to want to keep Epstein-related things private.
