Dude I agree with you generally, but this makes me think you’re more out of touch than I thought. Do you have a budget?? Kids? A dog? How do you not talk about how insanely expensive shit is? My friends/family talk about it all the time.

Portland resident here: the city looks better than it has in years. I honestly think he saw a video from the 2020 protests and assumed it was current and is making decisions based on that false assumption.

Then what’s the point of being a progressive if you give up your values like that? I truly don’t believe Melania or any other law abiding citizen should be deported. Might as well just go full MAGA.

Log off, Mehdi. This is a brain rot take.

Agreed. But covering for Kirk's hate speech only fuels the fire. You have become part of the problem.

And all articles like this will do is radicalize people further left because it makes people like me who know who Kirk was feel like we’re taking crazy pills! He was a bad fucking guy! You’re allowed to say that.

I just don’t understand how anyone can say this while condemning violence. Kirk’s vile and violent rhetoric helped lead us to this place!

Yeah man - a straight up bigot who called for the stoning of gay people, lied everyday to his audience, was an election denier, and who was directly involved in organizing J6 did things the right way. Great stuff.

Two of the politicians cited aren’t even in power anymore. It just sucks when leftists know they can engagement farm by shitting on dems over shit that happened 25 years ago when we are in a fucking real crisis caused entirely by republicans RIGHT FUCKING NOW.

Dude, I grew up in the church and it took me months of wearing one of their hoodies before making the connection. Honestly, I didn’t dig into the meaning too much after that because I love the clothes and didn’t want to discover that they were the chik fil a of menswear or something.

Portland, OR: It depends on the burger experience you're looking for (smash, fast food, gourmet...) but I'd probably send you to Tulip Shop Tavern.

a man in a cowboy hat says come on in yellow letters Alt: Val Kilmer as Doc Holliday in Tombstone β€” a forgettable 1990s movie in which he gives an indelible performance β€” saying, and gesturing, β€œcome on”

There are obviously things wrong with the system, we just need to blame the right people: republicans!!!

Man, I agree that it's really frustrating, but this is just not true. Trump was impeached twice and indicted four times on 91 felony counts. It's not "the democrats" fault that our justice system moves slowly or that republican judges didn't allow things to go to trial.

Yes! When I stopped training for looks and started training for performance (and started eating enough calories to train hard), not having super defined muscles was a tough hurdle to get over. Abs do not equal health or athleticism.

... when it actually showed SPED teachers. Equity in education means ensuring students have equal access to education. Not equity in hiring practices! Worried SPED departments are going to start getting axed purely for using the word"equity."

Something else I'm worried about but haven't seen any reporting on is that people are confusing equity in education with DEI. I saw a chart of a special education department floating around twitter that people were criticizing because they thought it showed DEI hires...

The text reads: "Tracking Misinformation: Yes, the HPV vaccine is safe, despite R.F.K. Jr.'s claims. The HPV vaccine is remarkably effecting at preventing cancer β€” roughly 97% effectivein preventing cervial cancer, and nearly 100% effective in preventing external genital warts. During his second day of confirmation hearings, Robert F. Kennedy Jr. declined to disavow comments he had made disparaging the vaccine as unsafe."

Why are you complaining that the mainstream is coming to your side? What do you want? Credit? Isn’t this the goal?
