White ppl will move the goalpost all over the universe for dear leader.

They will say they are paying the lowest they ever have for groceries.

Bitch, you discovered Costco. The economy is still ass.

There's no U.S law against ironic insult to injury that I know of.

Alex Jones has asked the Supreme Court to immediately put his almost $1.5 billion defamation judgment on hold, citing the imminent threat of InfoWars being handed over to The Onion.

If there isn't a stay, "InfoWars will have been acquired by its ideological nemesis and destroyed," the filing says.

Someone just called me "holier than thou" for supporting speed cameras. Yep. I am indeed holier than everyone who wants to not only keep endangering actual human lives, but thinks they shouldn't have to suffer any monetary consequences when they do. I'm a much better person than those assholes.

Okay, this was my super cute idea. When you're a couple of famous punks with a signature style, why not be each other for Halloween??? 🤩 It was strange drawing them dressed like the opposite person 😂

The only correct take on a fundamentally anti-human technology.

Screenshot of David Simon interview
SHAPIRO: OK, so you've spent your career creating television without Al, and I could imagine today you thinking, boy, I wish I had had that tool to solve those thorny problems...
SIMON: What?
SHAPIRO: ...Or saying...
SIMON: You imagine that?
SHAPIRO: ...Boy, if that had existed, it would have screwed me over.
SIMON: I don't think Al can remotely challenge what writers do at a fundamentally creative level.
SHAPIRO: But if you're trying to transition from scene five to scene six, and you're stuck with that transition, you could imagine plugging that portion of the script into an Al and say, give me 10 ideas for how to transition this.
SIMON: I'd rather put a gun in my mouth.

Republican Senators, with an assist from Sen. John Fetterman, voted down an attempt to block the Trump administration’s missile strikes on alleged Venezuelan drug boats. interc.pt/4o9CBur

A photo of Sen. John Fetterman, D-Pa., sits on the steps of the U.S. Capitol on Oct. 1, 2025, in Washington, overlaid with the headline, "Fetterman Is Sole Democrat to Vote Against Blocking Caribbean Drug Boat Attacks," and the DEK, "It was the first time members of Congress were put on record about whether they supported or opposed the president’s war in the Caribbean."

Thinking about my great uncle and how about a month before he passed away he covered his back in lard.

After that… man, he went downhill fast.

The fact that the law allows you to pay for a better defense should probably have been a clue to all of us as soon as we were educated about what state appointed attorneys are.

The Editorial Board @editorialboard.bsky.social · 1d

I have come to the conclusion that the law is merely a suggestion for a certain class of Americans. I always knew "equal treatment" was more aspiration than reality, but Jesus, until this last election, I didn't think it was a lie.

fiction is a safe space to think of unsafe things

if you feel it's messing you up, step away. don't assume it's messing everyone up and you need to eradicate it because you caught a case of the feel-bads from something. go sit with that and think about why instead of pissing in everyone else's cheerios.

There's a reason why cognitive unloading is becoming a frequent term used in my field of study right now. Everything from our political failures to our fixation on AI is because there is no way for the layman to keep up with everything they're exposed to.

Welp. It's official. Adderall doesn't help me. It just makes me light headed and sleepy. I'm still as inattentive and executive-functionless as ever. Maybe more so given within an hour or two of doses, I wanna take a nap.

I can't get a single win. Ever.

Seriously I feel a little ... schlubby and boring compared to the energy they bring.

Dunno. Maybe it's imposter syndrome acting up again, but I feel bad when my responses are so much less... energetic.

I don't know how I ended up with the affections of two younger men at the same time.

All I know is these two are bombastically romantic and I don't think my brittle bones can handle the constant cuddle induced shockwaves.
