one of the few kinda nice things about this period of time is that it's revealed, often surprisingly, which influential political figures actually believe in something

remember when elon musk was still in government and DOGE still active and they pretended for like a week rampent social security fraud was happening, and then it turned out they just didn’t understand that databases would include people who passed away and we never heard about this “fraud” again lol

and by his logic, he's punishing china half as much for sending us enough fent to od 900 million Americans or whatever

This is an incredible LIE being told by the guy that manages the agency that oversees the ACA. It's obscene how easily, how frequently and how dramatically these Trump folks lie to us.

✅Fact check from the extremely reliable @kff.org (& no, KFF did not retract this.)

This was published one year ago. Everything is, sadly, true today.

Then she brought a gun
to school to get in trouble at school and say you should get to bring a gun to school, at Kent State. So that's why they call her, the Kent State gun girl (who shit herself) instead of the Kent state shit girl

i really resent the continued assertion that there’s so much anger on both sides, as if the causes of the anger are equally legitimate. we’re angry because masked maniacs are violently snatching our family and neighbors off the street, and they’re angry because we’re calling them out for it.

it's not about material results, it's the aesthetics of power and humiliating enemies. Losing an election is flashy and embarassing. The clips from the street will look about the same even if they don't make many arrests.

Is that an la thing

I keep thinking this with nix flakes. Toolbox is at least ergonomic for running weird deps for a project quick, that you can then formalize later.

Hmm, maybe if I fed the container's history to Claude Code or something it'd spit out a decent dev shell flake.

Weird how it's the *same fucking pundits* who are now twisting their brains into knots trying to defend why a guy would have a nazi tattoo for 20 years

“Once my colleague pulled out his camera, the agent put away the gun," Huynh told the Sun-Times Tuesday night. "[But] if they can do this in broad daylight to an elected official, and point a gun at someone, imagine what’s happening behind closed doors.”

But like, are there drugstore dupes for us working schlubs without office bidets?

pretty proud of my home state sometimes

fack you, assholes

Look Trump said it's 1000% discount. If he says a smaller number, that's like pulling down the President's pants on live tv.

"We can't govern, we didn't know a diverse mega economy would be so haaaaaard, and most of these people aren't even blood relatives, can we do a crime against humanity to get an incomplete?"

It feels insane but that seems to be trump and miller's mindset

I think they just got bored and embarrassed and want to move to the next stage of immiseration for the people they hate, and came up with a lie to justify it post hoc.

They're real into that "america was best with 100 million americans, see these ads full of white people!" Meme now

it would probably be sorta hard for just anyone to do it *this well* because it requires you to actually be normal about trans people, but still it feels important to state for the record that WE ARE NOT HARD TO STAND UP FOR AND ANY OF THEM COULD DO IT.

This is so, so, so f'ing true.

america just needs to admit we need an antipope who gives oscars to the right guys after the fake real oscars

You can tell it's not about crime when they start listing shit they want to get rid of. It gets into contempt of the aesthetics of addiction and homelessness and ethnic communities. Crime is the failure of the outgroup to make itself invisible, not concrete harm to society.

A still of Ricky from Trailer Park Boys looking to the camera, saying "I don't think it's a big deal but according to the police it is"

Being trans in 2025

JD antipope!

antiwoke guy who wants to change the recycle bin on his computer back to the trash can

an AI x post from elon picturing him as a super hero (like tony stark), wearing a tesla suit and smoking a cigar in the desert, he also has a chin and cheek bones 🥴

shattering all previous records of divorced here folks

Andy Ngo wants to draw your attention to Barney the dinosaur

I love when Andy Ngo does one of his David Attenborough-style posts about Antifa and highlights some kid who took a bong rip and waddled into the protest dressed like a giant muppet.

My favorite flavor of his commentary by far.

“Who was president in 2020?” is the question of our time

Actually, I think the far-right is accurately identifying an existential issue.

So many of the most vehement far-right were either heavily bullied or did the bullying.

Teaching empathy to the next generation is fundamentally at odds with conservative political philosophy.

That's why they hate it.
