"the kids are naive and don't understand that bad foreign people will kill everyone if we don't shoot first; the ones who don't want to fight are pussies/gay; war is glorious and dying in our righteous religious war is your ticket to heaven, which is very real."

In the first 100 days I will dig down into the place of honor. On day one I will issue an Executive Order that the radical woke warning signs be removed and anyone perpetuating the "dangerous and repulsive" lie to be terminated. I will restore the country by touching the ancient treasures.

ICE is not only chasing down every random brown person in Chicago, they have a cameraman following them to film this for social media. Cruelty and inhumanity as content.

If the New York Times wanted to focus on the most relevant aspect of Pam Bondi’s testimony, this headline would say that she dodged questions. Instead, NYT postures as “objective“ and treats Bondi’s appearance as if it’s a pro wrestling match.
This is media cowardice.

It's not just that they're going to strike down a law against conversion therapy, it's that they're going to do it on behalf of made-up claims from a straw plaintiff who can't honestly show the law affected her at all

One thing about American's widespread distrust and disapproval of the Supreme Court is that mainstream news coverage mostly doesn't dwell on stuff like standing, so people don't even begin to grasp how rigged the Court truly is www.nytimes.com/live/2025/10...

i think it’s actually completely okay to say an algorithm is not a real person

hailey @hailey.at
if you're writing a sentence that sounds like eugenics but you go "oh that's fine to say because it's not a real person" (whatever that means) you may want to consider what made you okay with saying that
