I cannot adequately explain how fucked up the World Cup situation is wihen the president of a host nation *threatens the safety* of one of the participants (Iran).
The USA should be removed as a host nation and if it's not, the games shoud be boycotted and ANYONE WITH A MORAL CENTER should see that.

Dark money group offers influencers $1,500 for posts attacking Chicago Democratic primary candidate Progressive House candidate Kat Abughazaleh told MS NOW the secretive campaign is “filled with false and defamatory claims.”

HOLY SHIT.

A dark money group, hidden behind a bunch of shell companies, is paying influencers thousands of dollars PER POST to attack @katmabu.bsky.social on social media a month before her election.

Thank you to the people who declined the money and went forward with this. So who's behind this?

i feel like if i was tasked with not starting a war and bringing back US manufacturing jobs, i could have done a better job than this

This might be the greatest split-screen ever broadcast.

They’ll play this in museums in future.

I still wonder why old white dudes hate Joe Biden so much when he himself is such a typical old white dude. He loves trains, he's a classic car guy, and he didn't want little black kids going to white schools either.

My pitch would be to serve cod out of a container shaped like the USS COD.

14,000 tons of nachos.

We're spending $1 billion per day on war as millions of working people struggle to get by.

Meanwhile, America's ultra-rich have never been richer.

NBC’s Richard Engel: “The White House meme campaign is outraging many former US military commanders… they say only someone who has never really seen combat would think it’s a joke and put out material like this.”

It’s been downhill ever since

‘Same Ingredients, Different Recipe’ in Proposed U.S. Book Ban House Resolution 7661, introduced on February 24, would withhold federal funds from public classrooms and school libraries alleged to have “sexually oriented material” on their shelves.

They're coming for our books again.

Introduced by far-right idiot Mary E. Miller and co-sponsored by 17 GOP congressmen, HR 7661 would use the hammer of federal funds to force schools nationwide to remove books the GOP doesn't like from library shelves.

I think I’d go the entire weekend without seeing my 13yo if I wasn’t his only source for chicken nuggets.
And he reacts like a fucking VAMPIRE when I open his curtains.

Wonderful obit for legendary comics colorist Tatjana Wood in NYT.

Here she is holding her Eisner Hall of Fame Award in 2023. This photo makes me SO happy. Just look at that smile! Even at age 96, she knew what that honor meant.

Nicki Minaj’s social media propped up by thousands of bots, analysis finds An analysis shared with POLITICO reveals the rap sensation’s advocacy for conservative causes has been amplified by an army of bots and coordinated activity.

Apparently over 18,000 of those bots are dedicated to boosting Nicki Minaj's posts. I actually feel sort of bad for those bots.
