Dear Russia,

Iran's fire is making oil prices spike.

Spiking oil prices makes economic problems for us, so we're making it easier for you to sell more oil.

In sum, Iranian military success against us reduces economic pressure on you.

Just, you know, FYI.

Sincerely,
The geniuses leading America

NYT Hed/Dek: Slurs Filled a Chat Created by a Republican Party Official in Florida After the secretary of the Miami-Dade County Republican Party created the chat for college students, it devolved into slurs against Black and Jewish people.

If this post resonates with you, schedule your colonoscopy today.

nyt website currently resembles one of those mock covers people made before 2016 election: economy floundering, war in the middle east, scandal-plagued cabinet sec, brazen corruption....

wait is that the inspiration for dan flashes

For the last time:
You can pick your friends.
And you can pick your nose.
But you can't....

They also have to contend with a profoundly ignorant and unreasonable electorate.

Reactionaries convinced us for decades that something like gender studies has no practical use in society, and I know many reasonable people also believe(d?) this. It was the butt of the joke for as log as I can remember.

But OMG does this video drive home the point they were wrong.

But also, Mullin is terrible and an idiot, Chuck

At CBS News, where staffers are apparently barred from reading history books, the hostilities between Iran and the US don’t begin until 1979.

I agree, quite apart from the merits of the case. Alito could only defend the Supreme Court's authority to intervene by grievously misrepresenting the facts. The reality is that there's no plausible argument SCOTUS had the power to do what it did. Why didn't that matter to six justices?

i am told on here all the time that theres just nothing democrats can do in congress and that its pointless to do messaging bills and yet here is a member of the fucking majority - one of the worst cretins -- doing just that.

/2 Also this is the Trumpist/Modern Right exemplar of performative needy masculinity. Look at me using violence! I am a big tough man! I demonstrate the righteousness of our side and the evil of the other side with force!

At least he didn’t strangle the guy. Must not want an Andreesen job.

I like to argue and I like to pet cats but I don't argue with seminarians and I don't pet tigers

What’s with these elected politicians who think that people can’t understand why sexual harassment is wrong unless you have a wife and/or a daughter?

This is the truth

Viewpoint diversity, FTW!!!

It’s wild to watch the handful of right wing grifters who have an iq over 80 just melt down occasionally because of how obvious the hypocrisy and grift is.

So operation "epic fury" is a "major combat operation" but is too limited in scope to be called a war, and a "special military operation" is not an invasion but a retreat during it is a "goodwill gesture".

The post truth age has become the post satire era.

Tweet from Ryan Grim: "Understand what Neera is arguing for here: she thinks that no Democratic candidate should appear on any podcast where a host has flirted with conspiracy theories around Charlie Kirk and Israel. I don't think she understands how many podcasts that includes. And if you make the opposite argument, and say no, actually, tens of millions of people love those shows, Democrats should be on them, she says I'm "defending anti-semitic conspiracy podcasters." The good news is that this stuff doesn't work anymore. Save your breath, nobody cares."

I really don't think "There are so many antisemitic podcasts out there that you just can't help but appear on them" is the defense they think it is.

Why your coding agent keeps undoing your architecture Think of your codebase as a state machine. The code is the current state. The architectural decisions are the transitions.

I mean at this point that’s the absolute best fucking thing we can get out of republicans

“Michael Tracey and other credible journalists” is one of the shortest phrases you could use to demonstrate that you are a fucking idiot.

"Both sides are bad but Dems are always worse" is the main guiding principle
