“The court also noted that Kendrick's pedophile line "was a direct callback to Drake's lyrics" in his previous diss track, "Taylor Made Freestyle."”

Lmaoooooo! Imagining the judge going through each track in the back’n’forth & taking notes.

RFK JR: There are many other confirmations -- there are two studies that show children who are circumcised early have double the rate of autism. It’s highly likely because they are given Tylenol

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..."

Remote work during Covid expanded job opportunities for so many people with disabilities. Instead of taking the win/win- America decided they should go back to poverty with RTO requirements.

The thing is, CNN knew Project 2025 really was Trump's plan. We all knew.

That's why @mississippifreepress.org had a special section on our elections page devoted to helping people understand what the Project 2025 plans would mean for their lives.

Meanwhile, legacy media laundered Trump's lies.

Trump demanding a Nobel peace prize as he actively defies court orders to send troops against governors wishes into American cities and is blowing up random boats in the Caribbean is one of Trump's most absurd storylines

When I see people talking about not liking remote work because they're alone all the time that's concerning to me. Work shouldn't be your social life. You should have a community of people for that. I empathize with the loneliness... but there should be more to life than work.
