one thing thats kinda crazy to get your head around is not that the musk and thiel masters of the universe are ungrateful for the vast public infrastructure, public funding of research, and robust systems of laws and rules that made their wealth possible. it's that theyre too dumb to understand it

On Threads, the usual suspects are telling ppl about to lose SNAP benefits to just start a garden. As a gardener, I had to laugh. You need at LEAST an acre of land to feed a family of 4. Start-up costs are enormous. But yes, subsistence farming on the balcony of your rental apartment is the answer

I respect that there are no perfect candidates and purity tests lead to political stasis but also I’d really love it if more politicians could overcome the very minor barrier of “never did Nazi shit”

CNBC: Is importing beef from Argentina a possibility?

BROOKE ROLLINS: Yes, the president has said he's in discussions with Argentina. It will not be very much. Argentina is also facing a foot and mouth disease issue.

My friend asked if I wanted to go to The Woods (venue where Wednesdays are lesbian night) tonight and I had to be like. I am 40 years old and it starts at 10:30. That’s PM. And everyone there will be barely over half my age. There is no honor there. There is no wife there. There is only back pain

A conspiracy theory I have is that people put hot sauces like Tabasco on everything not so much for the pepper as they do for the benefits of adding vinegar to a dish and that’s what they should be focusing on and recognizing. This conspiracy theory has not gotten traction due to “lack of interest”

He just threw all the greatest hits into one big old nonsensical word salad.

The folks who failed 7th grade English and 7th grade history just say anything.

Every last one of those "monikers" are ideologies, perspectives, and a random religion that aren't synonymous.

Chip Roy: "The truth is the marxist, radicals, and Islamists the Democratic Party promoted this weekend, they cannot handle the truth. The truth is that there is a king and that king is Jesus. And the president has been willing to say it, & Charlie Kirk was willing to say it & he got killed for it."

Yes, sarcasm is most definitely a thing. Those who don't recognize it are often revealed to be humorless pedants when they overtop someone's else's sarcasm with unnecessary guidance and correction.

You dumb motherfucker.

Child has their first imaginary friend, a thing they announced by saying, "I made a new friend," but when I asked who that friend was, they said, "DON'T TALK ABOUT IT! ANY! MORE!" so I guess it's a minor demon of some sort, which I love for them!

The whole point of democracy is so one person's derangement does not become everybody's problem. It's social hygiene. The fact the richest men in the West are a mix of grotty twelve year olds and deranged apocalypse fanatics is a problem, and we should be honest about it.

The only excuse Lois Lane has for why her interviewing Superman isn't unethical, despite their romantic entanglement, is that it would be even more unethical for the paper's other top reporter, who is Superman, to interview himself, yet she cannot say this. This dilemma should be taught in J-school.

Q: In Gaza. Today. And overnight.

I know it's a fool's errand to expect anything from the media but "President posts video of himself dumping diarrhea on America" is an important thing to call attention to for a dozen reasons

(shouting to the press secretary) Can you confirm whether the diarrhea was pre-loaded onto the aircraft or was it coming directly from the president's Ass?
