Failgoat

there’s a scene in SPEED where Keanu Reeves introduces Joe Morton to Sandra Bullock, and both the script and basic logic would indicate that he calls him “Lieutenant McMahon,” but it really, really sounds like he says “Lieutenant McMac”

I grew up in central Jersey and probably 70% of over-40 men who live there are exactly like this

This is a classic kind of Tristate Guy - full of resentment and all talk, very little to back it up. He likes Trump specifically because Trump makes him feel big, like he could be Trump if “They” hadn’t held him back.

When someone uses this emoji 🤣 they are more mad than they have ever been in their entire life

The Trump shit video is basically this, but I will reiterate that if a Dem is critical of conservative voters it’s a generational scandal and when Republican pols literally post themselves shitting on their opposition virtually the entire elite politics and media class treats it as fine and normal

genuinely curious how newspapers and TV are going to describe this video to try to make it sound normal the way they try with everything Trump does. will they say “poop” or “feces”? will they just try to keep it vague?

it was for me, and I very much appreciate it

I agree with whoever said a rather under-appreciated dynamic is the extent to which Professional Politics Opinion Havers flat out just find the left interpersonally irritating in a way they do not find the right so, and I think a lot of the talk of a vibe shift was wish-casting their irritants away.

@milwaukeebrewers.bsky.social do you guys still have that big L flag? Seems like it would come in handy right about now

The Pope tweets: "The poor are not there by chance or by blind and cruel fate. Nor, for most of them, is poverty a choice. Yet, there are those who still presume to make this claim, thus revealing their own blindness and cruelty. #DilexiTe" Someone replies: "I was so hopeful I could be a Catholic again after the disaster that Francis was, guess we just get Francis 2.0 now and I am heartbroken. How do I stay a Catholic now...I don't want to lose faith but I am. You belong to someone else, not God."

heartbroken to learn the pope sympathizes with the poor. how can i continue to believe in god

ToeJam yes, Earl no

cannot possibly overemphasize the degree to which this is my shit

Chicago priest Fr. Larry Dowling describes procession to ICE facility: “No one had the courage to speak directly to us. No one from Homeland Security could stand in the presence of the Monstrance holding the Blessed Sacrament. No wonder. Evil is repelled, recoils in the presence of Christ.”

an incontestable fact of the second trump administration is it is actively trying to sicken and kill as many americans as it can

Lord give us the Democrats that Republicans warn us about.

When prices were going up under Biden there was a constant deluge of news stories about it because the media did not like Biden and wanted him to lose. Under Trump there is not a constant deluge of news stories about coffee prices because they like Trump and want him to win

Johnny Cash is one of the coolest people in human history, what the ever-loving fuck are you talking about

Honest to god the biggest scam in America right now is whatever Dem consultants are being paid

It would be inappropriate to condition funding of the government on the government following any rules whatsoever

More like Barely Wise 😏

I hope Democrats understand that if and when they get back to power, defaulting to “unity” politics and empty reconciliation without any real accountability would not only be morally abhorrent, but also politically suicidal: The desire for at least some semblance of justice will be overwhelming.
