Democrats. Believe. In. Nothing.
Raskin: We are a big tent. We must be a huge, vast tent. I say this is a party that’s got room for Marjorie Taylor Greene if she wants to come over.

The essential immunity of nearly every person in the world has been seriously weakened by repeated infections of Covid-19. What will happen if H5N1, which usually results in a high degree of mortality, takes hold within the human species, as seems increasingly likely?

With most fads, I feel like even if I don't like them, I still get their appeal on some level. But man, I do not fucking understand Labubus.

Establishment Democrats want literally none of these things.
They have proven again and again that they will actively fight AGAINST these things. How do people still believe in this party?

Whenever I see an article or post about a popstar I've never heard of, I keep that shit to myself. Not knowing one of the most famous people in the world is definitely a 'me' problem.
Saw an article about someone "redefining what it means to be a pop-star." And just all the comments from people being like "who?" "never heard of her?" and it's just folks, we're in our 40s, just accept we won't know a lot of these people and that doesn't mean "music is dead." We're just old...

Watching any "bad" 90s movie today: Woah, solid 3-act structure? Visual and story set-ups and call-backs? Good lighting? Nice blend of practical and cgi? Fun movie stars? This is amazing!!
It’s funny when you go back and watch a “bad” 90’s studio movie and it’s somehow less bad because it’s got these cinematic fundamentals - aesthetics and rhythms - you didn’t realize you’d one day miss.

I will never forget the story of “Cara”, a 16 year old who was bullied into removing her mask at school.
Staff and kids bullied her.
Her mom was immunocompromised and undergoing chemo, and Cara was trying to protect her.
She caught Covid & her Mom died.
We must be better than this.

So, she regrets not opposing the genocide, but only because post-election surveys said voters wanted her to. And Democrats wonder why they keep losing. It's because they believe in fucking nothing.

had to read the article to understand wtf was going on here which is that Meta is literally feeding Instagram pictures parents took of their teenage daughters to middle aged men as ads for Threads
“Meta has used back-to-school pictures of schoolgirls to advertise one of its social media platforms to a 37-year-old man, in a move parents described as “outrageous” and “upsetting.”
Meta has 100% stopped even *pretending* not to be astoundingly evil.

Are there people still going into "app development" as a career? Like, literally every app is just a data mining scam now. Who sees that and is like "oh yeah, get me in on that!"

I'm glad the "interesting eccentric" billionaire trope has worn off all these guys. It's so apparent to everyone now that they're just lonely morally-bankrupt pieces of shit.
It’s really funny that you can amass hundreds of billions of dollars, and still
Be desperately uncool and dull. I know that’s gotta hurt.
