as a man raised by a single mother in the 80s and 90s who showed me via words and actions that women can in fact do it all, im so offended that in 2025-6 we're seriously even discussing "women, are they asking too much by asking for basic equality?"
shut the hell up. go shut up.
shut the hell up. go shut up.

I used to teach an undergrad historical methods class and their favorite day was always the one where we listen to @drmatthewsweet.bsky.social telling Naomi Wolf (live, on air on the BBC) that she misinterpreted her data and based her whole book around something that didn’t happen
You’ll never guess who else experienced ‘racism’ on the job market despite their unimpeachable academic credentials.

I see Ben Shapiro was burning down barns over Candace Owens and her conspiracies.
Did he admit any personal fault for all of this?
Without him, we probably would not be having this discussion over Candace Owens and her mental state.
He is the reason she's a thing.

She’s always interesting and right. She’s called (at Thanksgiving) Trump’s term “REVERSE PHILANTHROPY.”
Exactly!
Trump TAKES INSTEAD OF GIVES. NEEDY SICK MAN.

Iowa woman on rising ACA premiums:
"It's so frustrating that we're in this position when it could easily be solved... I feel like we're being held hostage because of this... It's not fair. It's just putting too many people at risk."

Everything is so so so stupid
Candace Owens: 2 employees at TPUSA had prior knowledge of the assassination of Charlie Kirk. I gave their names to Erika Kirk.
Piers Morgan: Do you have any evidence for it?
Owens: I don’t have concrete evidence, which is why I’m not naming them 🤡

We were dead and now we're the hottest country in the world, the first country—quite frankly the only country—where a box of breakfast cereal costs $11. We're saying Merry Christmas, and also the r-slur, and we're getting back to saying "gay" so it means "stupid" again. Grown-ups are doing it now,

Massie: Previous presidents told us to go to war over WMDs that did not exist. Now it's the same playbook. Except we're told that drugs are the WMDs. If it were about drugs, we'd bomb Mexico or China or Colombia. This is about oil and regime change.

MORE from Jack Smith:
"The decision to bring charges against President Trump was mine, but the basis for those charges rests entirely with President Trump and his actions, as alleged in the indictments returned by grand juries in two different districts."
"The decision to bring charges against President Trump was mine, but the basis for those charges rests entirely with President Trump and his actions, as alleged in the indictments returned by grand juries in two different districts."
BREAKING on MS NOW:
Jack Smith, in his opening statement to House Judiciary, says:
"Our investigation developed proof beyond a reasonable doubt that President Trump engaged in a criminal scheme to overturn the results of the 2020 presidential election and to prevent the lawful transfer of power."
