People overseas love their kids just as much as you love yours. Your kids aren’t more special just because they were born on US soil

Americans do not want this. They do not want another war in pursuit of regime change. They want relief from the affordability crisis. They want peace.

Representative Hakeem Jeffries, Democrat of New York, the House minority leader, said in a statement that Iran was a β€œbad actor” that must be β€œaggressively confronted” for its human rights violations and nuclear ambitions, among other things. But he condemned Mr. Tump for failing to seek congressional approval for the strikes. The Trump administration, he wrote, must explain its rationale and justification for the strikes, define the national security objective and β€œarticulate a plan to avoid another costly, prolonged military quagmire in the Middle East.”

This is unacceptable from democratic leadership in Congress. They should be screaming NO WAR, not merely raising procedural objections. Cowardly, politically foolish failure to meet the moment.

Nihilism is the abdication of courage, the abdication of will.

Nihilism is the shadow fear casts on the walls of Plato’s cave.

And that’s how you have to respond to it: not by attacking shadows like fools but by shedding our own light, by dispelling the shadow with affirmation and life.

The world could be such a nice place if we allowed it. It's all so goddamn unnecessary. There's no need for any of it. It's so beautiful here. It should be so cool to be alive

People are increasingly going to be stuck inside because of climate change with little to do besides be online without better third spaces. Not in a 24/7/365 kind of apocalyptic movie way but for a few days at a time under the snow or when it's 120Β°F out.

They're just black holes of wealth that think greed is a skill. I'm certain these guys could get Thanos-snapped out of existence anytime and life would move on without a hiccup.

I keep hearing that the Epstein files are so big if we held everyone accountable everything would collapse. And no it wouldn’t. These rich guys don’t do any actual work. They aren’t actually important or useful they are just rich.

I don't know how many times we have to see this cycle play out in business and tech before it clicks that most of these people are not remarkable and did not become wealthy due to any singular talent beyond familial wealth and opportunism

I don't know how many times I need to repeat this but Elon Musk is genuinely not very bright. It's all a press-constructed mythology of another lazy opportunist.

The Supreme Court confirmed what your bank account already knew: you were paying an illegal Trump Tax on nearly everything you bought. More than $160B drained from families under a fabricated β€œnational emergency” the Court says never existed. This wasn’t a tariff. It was a heist dressed up as policy

BREAKING: The Department of Education has ended its directive that attempted to restrict diversity, equity, and inclusion efforts in schools nationwide.

This is a victory for academic freedom and education equity.

At each stage in America's fascism, the current stage is admitted by commentators while the future is denied.

Once they denied Trump was fascist. Now they concede it.

Now they deny the concentration camps & that there will be attempts to overturn elections.

They are more useful to Trump than ICE.
