I feel like this photo of masked, armed men pepper spraying a pastor protecting his community is going to be a defining picture of this moment in America for a long, long time.

I kind of can’t believe this Bari Weiss quote is even real, and yet www.nytimes.com/2025/10/06/b...

“I know that there are some people in this room who don’t believe that my marriage should have been legal … and that’s ok. Because we’re all Americans who want lower taxes.”

Without Seven of Nine, there is no Obama redshirtsalwaysdie.com/posts/voyage...

Voyager kicked off a butterfly effect that ended with Obama becoming president

Star Trek: Voyager's retooling that brought in Seven of Nine was the first first link in a chain reaction that ended with the election of Barack Obama.

American Christians deciding the Pope doesn't know the Bible because he said immigrants are human is the perfect summary of the evangelist movement

really enjoying all the people trying to explain the bible to the pope today

Pope Leo XIV
Today, more than ever, we must return to the heart, the center of feeling and emotion, the locus of freedom. Though it includes reason, the heart transcends and transforms it. Only by returning to the heart can we undergo a true ecological conversion that transforms our personal

Ted Cruz just posted a video montage with photos of every Democratic senator altered to make them wear sombreros and mustaches. It’s set to the song Macarena.

The 44 Senate Democrats who voted for Schumer's Shutdown should know that the Sombrero posting will continue until they re-open our government.
Hey, Macarena!

Great story that they're back in the top flight, but what a list of "Where are they now?"

Santi Cazorla, sure, but also: Eric Bailly, Leander Dendoncker, and Salomon Rondon!

The Trump admin just filed a Supreme Court brief asking to redefine 14th Amendment birthright citizenship. Chockablock with often obscure historical material: 19th century treatises, passport denials, regulatory footnotes.
