I just figure he got a divorce and needs money badly. Or maybe bought a boat.

It feels like the necessary first step to a nation finally saying “what the fuck are you talking about?” whenever presented with this hyperbolic danger language

This is the genius of the Portland protests - they make the claims of lawlessness look not just wrong, but comical

Besides linking Tylenol in pregnant women to autism, RFK Jr. now says circumcision is part of the reason why kids are autistic.

"Children who are circumcised early have double the rate of autism, and it's highly likely because they're given Tylenol. None of this is positive..."

I plugged a new mixer into my pc and have been listening to apple music lossless tunes on it and it sounds _so much_ better than plugging into the pc headphone jack it is not even funny. Miles different, it's wild.

It's amazing that these pathetic losers, with the power of the state behind them (horribly corrupt, but still the state) can be absolutely stymied by a dude in an inflatable frog costume.

Doing a listen-thru of Faith No More's "Angel Dust", what a classic album. I refuse to believe it is 33 years old.

Q: Do you agree that the mayor of Chicago and governor of Illinois should be in prison?

MIKE JOHNSON: Should they be in prison? I'm not the attorney general. I'm not following the day to day on that

The irony is if there was a way to keep all content locked down it would probably be controlled by some company like adobe and we would all (rightfully) hate them for it.

Dallas Brodie just raised a point of order, claiming David Eby called her racist, denialist and hateful in the house

Eby says he was talking about a recently fired BC Conservative staffer and suggests it's maybe a little revealing if Brodie thinks he was talking about her 💀
