We wanted to understand the legality of killing Venezuelan boaters without a trial or charges. So we talked to three unvaccinated Kid Rock fans at a Buc-ee’s in Amarillo.

I know most of the focus is on RFK Jr.'s weird horny texts, but the news that he used to spam Bill Nye with anti-vax weirdness and Bill was like, "Dude, you're you're confusing correlation for causation" is the only RFK text-message news I will ever need.

A friend who teaches theology shared with me a post about CS Lewis's Mere Christianity, which discusses foundational Christian logic across denominations. It reminded me of Dale's tweet below, and I wanted to share some thoughts here regarding modesty and respectability, which are often hot topics.

Someday you, too, could have the moral fortitude to look upon a years-long rape circus organized by the nation's most powerful elites and declare, "The people upset about this are speaking about it the wrong way."

while I’m being cranky, access journalism needs to go. When the president does his “I’m alpha because I insulted you” thing somebody needs to fall on his sword and say “what the fuck is wrong with you, old man?” on a hot mic. the hero of the wizard of Oz is Toto.

I've recently learned about the existence of the bearded vulture and everyone should know about this thing. It is a large bird of prey that is the only known vertebrate whose diet is 70–90% bone. Look at this gorgeous dinosaur!

Naughty Nuzzi is the hottest Olivia since Newton-John and she left bf Ryan stranded at the drive-in while she got physical with the ones she wanted faster than greased lighting. Will she give Larry some Summers lovin'? There are worse things she could do.
