straight-up jury nullification. this guy did it, confessed to it, and the jury instructions explicitly said that if he did it intentionally, it was assault.

Scoop: Inside DHS's vast college football surveillance effort If you go to a college football game, the feds have cameras on you.

In 2023, students at Ohio State blocked the doors to the president's office.

Little did they know, live video from campus CCTVs were being fed straight to DHS.

It's part of a little-known, decades-long surveillance effort built on the back of college football.

Photo of NBCโ€™s exit poll data (from my work laptop, lol) showing Mamdani splitting the straight vote equally with Cuomo, but taking the LGBTQ+ vote by more than 5:1. Even though the LGBTQ+ slice is only 14% of the population, they were a LANDSLIDE in his favor.

This needs more attention: Zohran SPLIT the straights with Cuomo. ALL of his margin was from LGBTQ+ voters. Every Dem who ever said โ€œwe should abandon the transesโ€ needs this shoved down their fucking throat with a ramrod.

TRANS RIGHTS ARE A WINNING POLITICAL ISSUE

Every single centrist claiming we must all compromise our bodily autonomy for their personal comfort is a traitor to American democracy & rational human decency.

They have no place in a modern Democratic Party, toss them out. Total liberation for all.

Japan's "Mundane Halloween" costume contest is back!

Each year website DailyPortalZ holds a contest where people dress up as something super duper ordinary.

Here's a thread of some of my favorites from the 2025 contest!

A riff on the famous Mike Primavera (@primawesome) tweet about shelter cats and coyotes, with substitutions in brackets

My neighbor told me [Republicans] keep eating his [vulnerable minority groups] so I asked how many [minorities] he has and he said he just [Votes Blue, No Matter Who] and gets a new [minority] afterwards so I said it sounds like he's just feeding [vulnerable minorities] to Republicans and then his daughter started crying.

i think it's very funny that the one thing everybody seems to be able to agree on in modern-day american society is the idea that "things are worse now", but the culture divide lives within the two answers to it being "and it should go back to when i was 13" and "but it doesn't have to be this way"

in Demolition Man, Sylvester Stallone plays a supercop from the violent 1990s frozen in time and sent to the future. He winds up fighting a group of terrorists until he realizes they're just trying to steal food, at which point he refuses to continue attacking them

Once again proving my pet theory that Americans hate taxes because weโ€™re alienated from what that money pays for. These guys are happy to pay indulgences to the church so long as they get to feel like theyโ€™re part of something holy.

Python was awarded a funding grant, funding grant asked Python foundation to remove all diversity and inclusion initiatives they have.

Python foundation said no and rejected the grant.

If you use Python, send a few dollars to the charity to keep it going. Iโ€™m pushing a dono on behalf of ScamGuard.

Ninja Gaiden 4 was one of my most anticipated games of the year and I'm not playing it in accordance with the BDS Microsoft boycott, and it turns out that actually nothing bad happens to you if you don't play a video game.

thank you lib institutions for reminding us all that we must defeat communism to preserve lgbt, because lgbt is about buying things; lgbt is about signifiers given to you by benevolent capital overlords; lgbt, as we all know, is about the means of production remaining in the hands of capital,

I glean unending satisfaction from the fact that my very class statement German SUV has clearly done more work (carrying lumber, off-road camping) than the several pickup trucks twice its size that park in front of my house.

Advertisers spent decades tilling the soil by making men feel insecure in order to sell them shit and so conservatives found fertile ground to plant their own messages preying on weak men's insecurity with their own identity as men.
