Exactly what it says on the label: The Pope in 1982. He's wearing a black hat, dark RayBans, and looks like he's a member of the Blues Brothers.

What's from Chicago, hates Illinois Nazis, and is holy as fuck?

It's the Pope in 1982.

ever since I learned about three-cueing I've developed infinitely more patience for replies on social media. mfers literally do not know how to read. people are walking around conjuring random meanings into words they don't know, and they don't know a lot of words. it's crazy

WOW. 81% of women 18-29 voted for Mamdani, 80% for Sherril, and 78% for Spanberger.

Gen Z women aren't playing around.

well I for one am shocked that "every aspect of your life gets worse forever and also look at my marble bathroom" did not turn out to be a winning election strategy

I was laid off from Teen Vogue today along with multiple other staffers, and today is my last day.

certainly more to come from me when the dust has settled more, but to my knowledge, after today, there will be no politics staffers at Teen Vogue.

they all write/talk like this now and it feels like a new genre: hate smut; manic, agitated vitriol that reads like it was written while feverishly masturbating to revenge fantasies

Q: β€œGovernor Pritzker has asked for Operation Midway Blitz to be on pause for the holiday weekend. Are you willing to do that?”

Noem: β€œNo, we're absolutely not willing to put on pause any work that we will do to keep communities safe. The fact that Governor Pritzker is asking for that is shameful.”

Filmmaker Guillermo del Toro says 'I'd rather die' than use generative AI Del Toro's new Frankenstein adaption reimagines Mary Shelley's 1818 Gothic novel. Frankenstein was like a tech bro: "creating something without considering the consequences," he explains.

β€œI am not interested, nor will I ever be interested. I'm 61, and I hope to be able to remain uninterested in using it at all until I croak. ... The other day, somebody wrote me an email, said, β€˜What is your stance on AI?’ And my answer was very short. I said, β€˜I'd rather die.’” 🫑

Politico: Democrats are demanding Republicans negotiate a bipartisan stopgap spending measure. Among their asks is for the GOP to extend certain Affordable Care Act subsidies, which were expanded by Congress in 2021 and are due to sunset at the end of the year.

President Donald Trump on Thursday blamed Democrats for making β€œunserious and ridiculous” demands, foreshadowing what is likely to be the go-to talking point should neither side blink ahead of the Tuesday night deadline.

β€œHe read all the shit they’re asking for, and he said, β€˜on second thought, go fuck yourself,’” the White House official said.

If you’re worried about losing your health care, apparently Trump has a message for you:

BC/BS emailed me today to say that the subsidies allowing me to have health insurance at a rate I can afford are disappearing in 2026. So, the tier that gives me any preventative care could jump to *6* times what I'm currently paying.

They're happy to help me plan for the change! Bless πŸ™ŒπŸΌ /sarcasm

As a woman who has experienced 36 months of pregnancy and 61+ hours of labor across four boys, 45 hours of which were unmedicated, all I have to say to any man in the room, particularly those who have evaded military service, is "get women's pain meds out your damn mouth."

Right-wingers are calling for my arrest. You know why? Because they know I’m the only candidate in my race who will actually stand up to ICE and Trump.

And they’re right.ο»Ώ
