Borders should delineate legal sovereignty but should not be barriers to movement.

wow. its always the ones you kind of suspect

liberals are obsessed with identity politics issues like who is and isn't a pedophile while trump is laser focused on unleashing the power of the american economy

Especially since straight, white men are a minority and not even all of them are conservative! You don't have to win everybody, and moreover, you shouldn't try - if there's one thing that won't win over insecure, aspiring "alpha males" it's the cloying, insincere desperation of courting their vote

This is what bugs me about a billion "Democrats need to reach out to young men" think pieces. There is no way to appeal to reactionary identity politics without compromising on egalitarian values. Maybe the strategy should be to pick a coalition and advocate for it over and against other interests

It’s not just that Trump is personally a rapist, though there’s lots of credible evidence to suggest that he is. It’s that he is promoting a fundamentally pro-rape ideology, and that the permissiveness for rape and entitlement to rape that are core to his worldview are central to his appeal for men.

donald boat ... @laserboat999 I think the most egregious part is that he thinks listening to george guidall or whichever hoary yakubian beast penguin hired to read the translation while he plays diablo with cheetodusty fingers is 1:1 equivalent with hearing a rhapsode sing-chant the poem from memory, that a sped up audiobook boneconducted into his skull will recreate the exact condition of Classical Antiquity and achieve whatever he thinks is "authentic." To the extent that he has any historical sense (he probably doesn't) it is without a doubt autopopulated by sub-Ridley-Scott tier period slop, D-graded wikipedia summaries, pop history podcasts, Grok, of course. I do think that it is a near biblical punishment to inflict on the richest man in human history with a near boundless capacity to build whatever he wants a near total lack of imagination, the inability to navigate his ignorance of any field, literally any field outside of insectile mechanical reproduction. You will see him bleat about the "West," about "Beauty." I would like to see him, or any other of these robber-baron-hopefuls to just try and build one nice-looking building, a library, a train station, maybe just one fucking cabinet and have it not look like the ugliest piece of shit on the planet. He really is the Final Boor, zero taste, trapped in the most brutal contradiction of dull-garish backwards-forwards looking (And may Allah forgive me for uttering this word) "cyberpunk" futurism. He's too far gone for me to pity him in any real way. I hope he gets to live in the world he wants, his grand fantasy, which, like his cars, is probably just a big refrigerator with an iPad in it Traducir post 8:28 p.m. • 10 nov. 2025 • 379,7 mil Visualizaciones

Joyce Carol Oates has inspired legions

I've noticed the opposing team's fans only cheer when the opponents score on us. To win those fans over, I recommend we score on ourselves repeatedly; that will surely make them so happy they'll start supporting us. And I'm sure all our fans will keep cheering for us—who else is there to cheer for?

I’m stupid and I need to shut the fuck up

DONALD TRUMP: [asleep, drooling on long red tie]

SENATE DEMOCRATS: fine, we give in

Adam Carolla: I had to give my ex wife my retirement account in the divorce. I worked 30 years for that but I gave it to a person who chose not to work. Character is a big issue in this country

this is the trump guy urtext

It is really funny the NY Times has a reporter whose "beat" is college campus cancel culture shit. That's like having a reporter reporting on WWE storylines

get 👏 his 👏 ass 👏 joyce 👏

I was hoping whatever was bursting out of the guy's chest in Alien would be something nice

This is definitely why people think I’m stupid

It is sad, but not surprising, that the president of Mexico is wasting her time on frivolous matters like suing the man who groped her.

Not sure what you'd call this. Not exactly a simulacrum but something vaguely similar to that

They're used to candidates-elect immediately folding to moneyed interests after election. To not do that appears to them to be a violation of an implicit norm. Sure you can promise hope and change on the campaign trail, but you better pick up Bill Ackman's phone calls.

China cannot compete with my capitalist innovation (being given endless piles of money to throw on a fire)

This is complete hogwash

lol

The last time New York had a decent mayor was Giuliani, over two decades ago. Say what you will about him (you younger people only know what's become of him after leaving office), but he really did clean up the city. He oversaw the removal of its two biggest eyesores.

Mayor-elect Mamdani directly addresses President Trump: “So Donald Trump, since I know you’re watching, I have four words for you: turn the volume up.”

To my friend Andrew Cuomo — rest now, brother. We have the watch. And I'll see you in Valhalla.

Oh — the situation has escalated.

Pope Leo has spoken out: says "spiritual rights" of detainees should be respected and calls on the "authorities" to allow "pastoral workers" in.

They shoulda kept the monster-of-the-week thing going with twilight. book 1 she falls in love with a vampire. book 2, it's a werewolf. book 3, a frankenstein. book 4, a mummy. and so on.
