Gosh, if there is a better speech for this moment in America, I don't know it.

McGovern: "You are literally taking food off kids' plates to buy Elon Musk another yacht. I guess he's getting a good return on his campaign donations ... this is not policy. This is theft."

I used to giggle when he dropped the horn through the drum hoop, but I was 10 years old. Please forgive.

Missed a spot

I can't help but feel like we're about to see a lot of history happen this summer

JUST IN: Trump self-ordains himself the next Pope; orders conclave to end immediately.

So, I’m playing one of those helicopter sniper idle games, and one level makes me shoot them on the toilet or in front of a urinal. I was suddenly struck by the callousness of sniping digital bad guys while they drop a deuce.

i would enlist specifically for this campaign honestly

why is no one forcing AI sports onto us? is it bc no one would care about sports without humans’ inherent flaws? This is the same reason ai “art” doesnt work

A relief to hear this said. Trump operates from the same untested, blustering ideas he had in the 80s. They weren’t good then and even less so now.

It would be great if BUSINESS LEADERS were prepared to say what they clearly know - that Trump only knows how to run a muscle racket. And here we are.

Yes, the stock market may be tanking and our national security apparatus has never been more vulnerable and we're on the verge of both economic collapse and war, but it was all worth it to keep pronouns out of email signatures.

Please don’t share this picture. Apparently the president hates it.

Well, at least the turds are useful.

Today is the 60th anniversary of the death of Margaret Dumont, a seasoned actress who endured every affront the Marx Brothers hurled at her as their foil. Dumont died knowing she'd be falsely accused of not getting the jokes:
"That was the job, you dumb assholes," she rasped at the end. "Christ."

Best question of the day:
Q: do you know what is a Pig Inflator? (Syntax error in original)
A: a bad idea with unintended consequences?

Things are a shitshow right now, so please take a moment to enjoy this recent photo of the destitute outcast Rudy Guiliani on a scooter in Walmart shopping for hair dye.
You’re welcome. 🙃

The Wiggles just put out a song with Orville Peck about how they’re friends of Dorothy…welcome to the resistance, The Wiggles

I bet Jodie Foster would be so impressed if somebody did the thing

Football fans wave to the pediatric hospital after the first quarter

Hey Hawkeyes fans!

When the children’s hospital no longer exists after Medicaid and NIH cuts…

will you still wave to the empty pediatric hospital?

So the Mexico-US-Canada World Cup is going to be interesting, huh

He can guarantee he sucks.

looking back everything went to shit when Schoolhouse Rock stopped airing

Spineless, yellow-bellied, lily-livered, weak-kneed, pusillanimous chickenshits.

Two paths diverged in the woods and America took the psychopath.

Country music fans mad at Beyonce…. Do you realize it was mediocre white dudes that completely bastardized the genre? You cranked up Jason Aldean and now you’re a “purist?” Sit down.

America is currently living out one of those horror sequels that goes a million times harder than the original.

He has dementia, he has no handlers who can tell him when he's crossing lines a decent person shouldn't, and if he wants to show us how to fight a fire in 80mph wind gusts then by all means, hateblob, c'mon over and show us how it's done. Come insult the fire into submission like it's Jeff Bezos.

It's bad enough we have to live under oligarchs. But these dorks?
