A man applied for a card from the Beachwood Library and, over two visits, withdrew 100 books. He later posted two videos, one in which he burned all of the books.

Reminds me of Jordan tormenting the Utah Jazz.
In the Steph Curry era, the Warriors are now 5-0 in playoff series against the Rockets. They've closed out the last three of those in Houston.

my reaction to this is not "oh Trump's losing it" it's "the entire point of fascism is that the leader declares reality and everyone else has to follow it".
Absolutely, furiously certain that the floating letters pasted in around the knuckles were physically there
Well that sure clears up the question of whether he was just sharing the meme from the neo-Nazis that purported to translate the tattoos or whether he's so senile he confused the added translation in the meme for part of the tattoos!

I feel like, at some point after the election, Whitmer was looking for a new adviser and said “get me the guy who put Dukakis in that tank.”

Everyone is freaking out about Hegseth for legitimate reasons & he must resign.
But as a physician I can promise you, RFK Jr is an equal or greater threat than Hegseth.
He can’t separate fact from fiction.
He will kill millions.

What, the literal, FUCK.
Donald, the Dove
President Trump announces he'll be requesting a record-breaking $1 trillion Pentagon budget.
"$1 trillion, and nobody's seen anything like it. We have to build our military and we're very cost conscious. But the military is something that we have to build, and we have to be strong"

my humble opinion is that if your job is to manage risk and make big decisions about markets and you screw up your judgement this badly you should be disqualified from ever managing money and also shunned completely from speaking on the subject in public again

thank you donald trump for your diligent work as you make the US a stagnant, backwater pariah state and playground for sociopathic tech oligarchs

They’re not going to get out of this by playing semantics.
Sending detailed information about an upcoming military strike on unclassified channels (and even to the wrong guy) is wrong, reckless, and obviously a threat to American troops.

Raskin: "Really, if we were censuring anyone, it should've been Donald Trump, who I don't think had been back to our chamber since he incited a violence insurrection against us. And then he used his pulpit in order to call a sitting member of the Senate 'Pocahontas.'"

The FAA approved another launch before the last crash investigation was completed — and it ended in another disaster.

It would be helpful if more people understood renewable energy is actually an extremely disruptive technology and the reason monied interests are trying to make folks hate it is that they are the ones which will be disrupted.

stop arguing over fucking semantics.
remain objective.
being technically correct on a non-issue and causing conflict among people that overwhelmingly are on the same side is a mugs game.

Probably should be a bigger deal that Musk, the richest man on Earth who is essentially acting as the leader of the GOP, endorsed the pro-Nazi AfD Party in Germany in a tweet the same a day a supporter of that party killed people in an act of terrorism.
The VP Vance just supported Musk's tweet.

In his 1792 tract “The Rights of Man, Part 2,” Thomas Paine proposed a graduated tax in which the top marginal tax rate would be 100%. He pegged that top income at £20,000 per year. That would be roughly $4 million in today’s money.
This is an oligarchy.
The founders never intended people to have this much power… EVER
Stop the oligarchy
