America is the richest country on the planet! Why the fuck are there 22 million Americans who need food stamps anyway???

You'd think companies could cope with a little less 'maximising shareholder value' so people could afford to eat the food in their own country without government subsidies.

Do you think Hegseth realises that the Nigerian Christians are Black? 🤔

My Spotify 'Account closure completed' notice.

ICE ads??? Spotify can just fuck off!

I cannot understand why the Democrats are so useless at this. There are blatantly corrupt, literal fascists in charge, an empty podium for "Truth, Justice and the American Way" and Democrats are still incapable of stepping up as The Good Guys. It's right there for the taking! WTF is wrong with them?

The acoustics in Trump's ballroom are going to be atrocious. It's going to sound like the world's biggest cafeteria.

Canada's ad had the real Ronald Reagan bagging the idea of tariffs back in 1987. Trump's petulant, mad-king response:
“Based on their egregious behavior, ALL TRADE NEGOTIATIONS WITH CANADA ARE HEREBY TERMINATED.”

Just waiting for him to respond to some new affront with:
"OFF WITH THEIR HEADS!"

Dear Anonymous,

It looks like the government is never going to release the Epstein Files. So... do you reckon you'd be able to get them for us? We'd really appreciate it.

Love,

Everyone

Screenshot of Trump's 'Truth Social' account where he posted the AI video of himself in a crown, flying a jet with 'King Trump' painted on the side, bombing the 'No Kings' protest with literal shit. The captured frame is the jet dropping it's load.

I hadn't realised that the strategy of "flood the zone with shit" was meant to be taken quite so literally...

Historians should read psychology. Psychologists should read history. Both should read some social theory. Everyone needs to read outside their academic lane, 'cos you're all missing bits of the puzzle, and the folk in the department down the hall have your missing pieces.

Comedy Gold! All kudos to the sign-maker.

Traditional 'NO' symbol over a graphic of a pompous looking, enclosed monarch's crown with a cross on top.

Go America! NO KINGS!
Love, from Australia.

Nah, I read that he's 5'10", he just seems short 'cos Washington is full of tall men ('cos of the standard height bias for males).

Yes, the Portland Frog is real. There's lots of legitimate footage of it at the protest. I've also seen footage of people dancing at the protests in inflatable T-rex and unicorn costumes. Upping the absurdity of sending troops in.

'Papal Infallibility' doesn't mean what people think it does. It's a formal designation for Papal pronouncements on matters of faith, not on issues of morals. Not much has a 'Papal Infallibility' stamp. The rest are like 'Papal Directives', to be obeyed, but still open to debate (by theologians).

That was such a bizarrely inappropriate bit of messaging, I'm not 100% sure that Trump didn't just get trolled into reposting something deliberately showing him up as an idiot who didn't catch on that they were making fun of him.

Genesis 3:16
Unto the woman he said, I will greatly multiply thy pain and thy conception; in pain thou shalt bring forth children; and thy desire shall be to thy husband, and he shall rule over thee.

That's right Ladies: NO TYLENOL FOR YOU!

For the record...

From Australia: Yes, weird as f***. General reaction is 'appalled disbelief' with a lingering suspicion that the whole of American politics is just a giant trolling war now, because this shit can't possibly be real, right?

Not just 'an' Australian news network - it's 'the' Australian news network - the Australian Broadcasting Corporation, our primary public service broadcaster. It's like the equivalent of kicking out the UK's BBC.

If they don't want to be called fascists, maybe they shouldn't be shouting so loudly about their sworn enemies being the anti-fascists.

Jeezus America! The hypocrisy and gaslighting... MAKE IT STOP!

Case Study of the Hard Right | 2024 Year in Hate & Extremism Founded by Charlie Kirk, TPUSA’s effort to sow fear and division to enforce social hierarchies rooted in supremacism is emblematic of broader political project.

If you know people who seem like they might be sipping the kool-aid along with the glowing obituaries for Charlie Kirk, maybe gently point them at this convenient summary of his legacy... www.splcenter.org/.../turning-...

So I asked Grok to define 'Actual Malice'. It says :
"In US law, "actual malice" means knowingly publishing false information about someone with the intent to harm their reputation, or doing so with reckless disregard for whether the information is true or false."

Grok would do a better job of it.

Maybe people should have paid more attention to what the girls were saying back when it was still just Gamergate...

Just leaving this here...

ADL graph showing that the right-wing is responsible for 75% of extremist-related killings, and the left-wing is responsible for 4%.

Just leaving this here...

heh heh, excellent work! here in Australia, the conservative candidate for prime minister who got trounced at the last election was widely nicknamed 'Temu Trump'.

How Charlie Kirk turned campuses into cultural battlefields – and ushered in Trump’s assault on universities The slain head of Turning Point USA stoked campus culture wars and ‘treated faculty and students as enemies’’

Lets all take a moment to reflect on Charlie Kirk's legacy...
