I think about this a lot as I'm panicking in my shower.

Canada's top military commander Jennie Carignan calls out the GOP for questioning women in combat: After 39 years as a combat arms officer and risking my life in many operations, I can’t believe that in 2024, we still have to justify women's contribution to defense and service in their country...

For me, the thing that knocked the wind out of me with this election is that I dared to believe America would get it right THIS time, that America was ready for a Woman President.

It hurt having that blind faith in neighbors, friends, and strangers smacked out of me.

Dammit, America. 😞

You're not "late to the party" when you enjoy an old book for the first time. Books don't have an RSVP deadline. The party started long ago, and guests show up when they're meant to.

While I'm definitely worried about the negative impacts of the next administration, I'm more worried about the cover-up of the impact data. Recall that Trump did everything he could to hide COVID data.

I love that when I say "the good place" and "the bad place" everyone knows exactly what I'm talking about.

One thing I find interesting about the echo chamber complaint is that an echo chamber just won a presidential election.

Put aside the convo of whether it’s β€œgood” or β€œbad” for a moment. The far right has devoted enormous resources + time to building echo chambers & loathes spaces they don’t control

I’m pretty sure that if some CEO got fired from his job & on his way out he told a mob of crazies to show up with zip ties, flag poles and tasers and to bash in the windows & smear poop on the walls, that he wouldn’t get hired back a few years later, but what the hell do I know.

I can’t tell you how different it is on X now after so many people have left. I have always followed mostly right-wing accounts because I cover them, and they are running out of people to pick fights with. So they’re just mostly fighting with each other.

Just my 2 cents. But my goal is to ignore the trolls. Give them zero attention. Block them if they annoy me.

I think the worst thing we can do on this site is re-create the ad hominem/ personal attacks that occur across comments on Twitter/insta/tiktok/ etc

Thanks for your patience as we navigated some technical difficulties today! Moving forward, the performance issues you may have noticed should hopefully be resolved.

TL;DR we're so back

The Onion Buys Alex Jones’s Infowars Out of Bankruptcy The satirical news site planned to turn Infowars into a parody of itself, mocking β€œweird internet personalities” who peddle conspiracy theories and health supplements.

Hi everyone.

The Onion, with the help of the Sandy Hook families, has purchased InfoWars.

We are planning on making it a very funny, very stupid website.

We have retained the services of some Onion and Clickhole Hall of Famers to pull this off.

I can't wait to show you what we have cooked up.

A lot of people ask me what the worst thing I’ve ever smelled is.

Some people think it’s rotting shark blood, since shark blood has urea in it. That’s pretty bad, once had to throw out shoes that got a drop on them.

But I gotta go with putrefied sea turtle here. There’s something in their fat. 🀒

This is Darwin. He is afraid of pretty much everything. Despite this, our 3yo is convinced he chases away super scary monsters every night when we all go to bed. To him, Darwin is the bravest cat in the world.

You might not feel brave, but I promise, just like Darwin, to someone, you are a hero.

In a world that's built on purpose to wear you down until you're nothing, simply making art and being yourself and even just loving... they're truly acts of rebellion.

"kamala harris will protect your right to disagree with her" is something i haven't really heard from another surrogate and i find it genuinely compelling?
