Blows my mind that some of the same journalists who see Trump as a want-to-be dictator at home are earnestly discussing the "challenges" for this same man to "bring democracy" to a country it just illegal invaded. Please grow up.

it's not as though "signing up for the military" didnt carry risks, you just thought they'd be mortal rather than moral

As of 12/24/25, USPS changed policy on when they postmark mail. Mail dropped off is no longer guaranteed a same-day postmark. Tax returns & other time-sensitive items are now stamped when they reach a regional processing center, which may be days later. Plan deadlines accordingly to avoid penalties.

Unlike Trump & Witkoff, most Americans aren’t seeking “amazing business opportunities” for US billionaires in Russia. We just want them to stop indiscriminately bombing civilians & end their barbarian war of aggression with their horde of convicts, rapists & foreign mercenaries.

If we learned that the Obama or Biden DOJ was casually monitoring the comings and goings of a reporter for any reason, much less b/c she was the lead reporter on all things Epstein, it would be a Watergate-level scandal but of course since it's Trump, one day (at best) and we move right along 🙃

They’ve been slashing healthcare due to “waste, fraud and abuse”.
Telling people they must “prove they matter” to receive Medicaid.
Yet this man frauded the system of $1.2 billion dollars and what does he get?
A pardon!
It was never about saving money.
It’s eugenics.

i don’t see how any of the benefits of chatgpt and other consumer-facing LLMs can possibly outweigh their incredible ability to induce suicides
Adam Raine’s life hurtled toward tragedy soon after he began talking with ChatGPT about homework. Analysis of his ChatGPT account shows how the chatbot became a confidant as he planned to end his life.

America has 925 billionaires as of this year. Collectively they have a record $6.9 trillion in wealth.
The bottom 50% of Americans control $4.2 trillion in wealth.
When 925 people control more wealth than half a country’s population, we have a very serious problem.
