Luigi Mangione surrounded by flames grinning with the text Repent or Perish

Westboro Baptist Church tried to make an Anti-Luigi Mangione poster but it just looks like Luigi is threatening billionaires and goes unironically hard af

I'm beginning to suspect that the United States might be the bad guys...

Feel like this is going to get a lot more attention than if they had just aired the video.

But what if I want my kettle to start advertising to me? It will help drown out the ads from my microwave, sink, and fridge while I wait to open my cabinets that are locked during a firmware update

Thank you for a week where we could forget about the state of the world and do something for a good cause. I have been watching for a decade now and it is always a highlight of my year.

Maybe Don’t Talk to the New York Times About Zohran Mamdani It’s remarkable, the people you’ll hear from. Teach for even a little while at an expensive institution—the term they tend to prefer is “elite”—and odds are that eventually someone who was a studen…

What if the rapture actually happened a long time ago and no one made the cut?

For all the various hand wringing culture war nonsense about "things you're not allowed to say anymore", an actual thing you're apparently not allowed to say for risk of drawing down the wrath of Big Brother is "I do not mourn for Charlie Kirk."

It is wild that Charlie Kirk of all things is becoming *the* litmus test.

Even just talking about the event publicly without a sufficient supply of sackcloth and ashes is cast as "promoting political violence." I haven't seen this kind of mandatory performance of allegiance and piety since 9/11.

I've never been super enthusiastic about this whole human enterprise but watching it get stripped for parts by the dullest dipshits imaginable is kind of ass.

Virtually all incitement to political violence comes from the right.

Virtually all political violence comes from the right.

The right made a felon and rapist POTUS.

Meanwhile, the left keeps nominating for POTUS lawyers who believe in rule of law.

Do *not* let this timeline gaslight you.

Ever.

Anyone else feel like the US decided to go certifiably insane over the last week?

These are right-wing terror events I covered just from 2017 to 2023. It's not even close to comprehensive. The government's trying to erase this history.

It's telling that so many public figures are more concerned with the death of a man who thought the way he died was the price you paid to live in America, while ignoring the children who were shot at a school a few minutes later.

I mean, to be fair to Trump's take, the city IS run by a lawless crime boss, a convicted felon who escaped punishment and corruptly protect thousands of violent lawbreaking followers from punishment.

As SCOTUS said in Houston v. Hill: The "freedom of individuals verbally to oppose or challenge police action without thereby risking arrest is one of the principal characteristics by which we distinguish a free nation from a police state."

As of 7:45PM ET, protests of historic size are happening in Chicago and NYC, the other two of the three largest cities in America.

There are no reports of violence.

Why? Because police are standing back and letting people peacefully express themselves.

Trump wanted and incited the violence in LA.

I will be damned if I allow a bunch of Confederate-waving January 6th apologists give the American people a lecture on flag waving.

There is ZERO reason to enter an argument about patriotism with people who still worship traitors to America 150+ years later.

They. Are. Breaking. The. Law.

It is 100% carrying water for the opposition to participate in this collective delusion that Dems for some reason need to answer for every teen who throws a rock rather than hold the Trump admin accountable for intentionally creating chaos and breaking the law to stoke violence.

They are in charge.

"The fascist need for control is so desperate because it is so unnatural. Tyranny requires constant effort. It breaks, it leaks. Authority is brittle. Oppression is the mask of fear."

I had to pause for laughter at Surveil magazine.

Might be more excited for this than any other UB so far, which says a lot considering several of my favorite IPs have UB sets released or announced already

One of our supporters shared this with us—people are getting creative tonight!

Yes this agency is more or less a free enormous benefit for the public and a cost to rich frauds

Day Five of the Trump-Musk Treasury Payments Crisis of 2025: Not “Read Only” access anymore If you are a current or former career Bureau of the Fiscal Service Employee, especially if you’re a legacy IT programmer with years of experience and especially if you are a COBOL programmer currently...

EMERGENCY PIECE: Previous reports that Musk's DOGE programmers only have "read only" access is inaccurate. I can confirm what @wired.com first reported at 1 AM today that they have Read & WRITE access with a source in BFS referring to this as "apocalyptic"
