Been laughing at the idea of Trump pitching a legacy sequel where Jackie Chan and Chris Tucker hand the keys to the franchise over to their white sons

This article heavily implies that ICE is being used in a custody dispute to help Karoline Leavitt's brother get his son and have the mother locked up in ICE detention

I wonder if the person who wore the goth kimono in 19th century Japan got roasted like I did in middle school when I tried wearing a spiderweb bowling shirt to school

The high five should be much older than 50ish. It should be ancient. I can absolutely picture soldiers in ancient Rome high fiving each other

I think one of the red flags I spot and dip out on sight on is someone criticizing how someone else pronounces something. No wonder or whimsy how it got that way, no curiosity for accent or regional dialect, just black or white. I’m out, can’t trust you to try and get on anyone’s level.

hey dipshit pull your head out of your own ass, you're too old to keep doing this. everyone, everywhere, one day has to disconnect themselves from the unethical behaviors of their tribe and you still refuse to do that. you're your own person, stop fucking following the herd you jackass.

PITTSBURGH'S Public Source Newspaper Guild of Pittsburgh journalists return to their jobs at the Post-Gazette after three years on strike After a court ruling in their favor, long-striking journalists declared victory and returned to a pivotal Southwestern Pennsylvania newsroom. They return as union organizing continues throughout the region. Stephanie Strasburg November 24, 2025

Natalie Duleba, local secretary of the guild, hugs Jon Schleuss, president of the NewsGuild Communications of America, as she hands him the mic. "The first day of this strike, our folks went over across the street and they sat down at a table, and they started talking about that they were going to take care of each other," said Schleuss, acknowledging the guild could not have known how long the path back to work would be.

ICE deported a woman who owned a home in the US for 30 years. A judge banned ICE from deporting her to Sierra Leone where she had been tortured, so it deported her to Ghana, which kidnapped her and sent her back Sierra Leone anyway. ICE is part of this illegal conspiracy.

Chuck Schumer Faces Pushback From a β€˜Fight Club’ of Senate Democrats

Wow β€” Senators Van Hollen, Smith, Murphy, Sanders, Warren, Markey, Merkley, Heinrich have created an official internal "Fight Club."

They're challenging Schumer & Gillibrand's leadership, arguing the party is using an old, corporate-friendly playbook insufficient to take on Trump or win elections.

Study In The Journal Of Pediatrics Finds Trans Youth Care Lowers Suicidality, Few Detransition The groundbreaking study found that suicidality dropped for transgender youth receiving hormone therapy by nearly 70%, with only 7 patients of 432 discontinuing treatment.

1. A landmark study was just published in The Journal of Pediatrics.

It found a 68% reduction in suicidality for trans youth getting HRT.

It also found only 7 of more than 400 stopped taking HRT... and of those that did, 4 still identified as gender-diverse.

Transgender care saves lives.

Bari Weiss thinks CBS’ path to relevancy is more Alan Dershowitz. We couldn’t make it up if we tried

She also clearly says something we have said for years: all media has a bias. β€œcharismatic centrism” is just her way of being very clear objectivity is a myth as she plans to Newsmaxify the network

Germany uses the excuse of the ’ceasefire’ which Israel routinely violates to sell weapons to Israel again. Israel is being rewarded for committing genocide by the country that pretends to have learned from the holocaust.

Founders on LinkedIn still seem to be struggling with the difference between telling people about their humble beginnings and admitting to straight up committing fraud.

so if i understand this correctly, gaines has made her career by publicly calling trans athletes predators and threats to women while completely failing to ever mention even once that her mentor/college swimming coach was sexually assaulting and harassing women on the team while she was there?

You have to keep giving money to avoid collapse and if there’s collapse you have to give more money. It’s called the free market.

The idea that one has to be a Jew in order to have any meaningful understanding of what is or is not Zionism in theory or in practice is to more or less render the term meaningless. Like saying you have to be white to understand white supremacy or Hindu to understand Hindutva.

Seeing how much of the right-wing on Twitter is just bot farms, kinda lays bare how much hate and hatred is a project that needs to be constantly maintained, a fire that needs to be fed all the time lest it go out for a moment, so much time, effort, and resources to keep people angry and hateful.
