These declines are MASSIVE.
And the comparative silence in media coverage is absolutely DAMNING.
“Why are ppl always so afraid of crime?”
THIS is why. When crime goes up, media trips over itself to report it.
Falls to pre-war (!!) levels? Just CRICKETS.
Ohtani...unique, dominant excellence.
Shohei arrived in the big league in spring training 2018, and
a lot of people were adamant about his inability to pitch AND hit in the big leagues.
In fact, some teams didn't even scout him in Japan—puzzling strategy. They know who they are.
Hmmm...🤔
"The lawful, beautiful actions that I undertook around the globe against the likes of Tokyo or New York were anything but a rampage. It was a precise enforcement of the law meant to keep everyone safe."
In 1900, 31% of all deaths were children under the age of 5. Today it’s 0.7%. Vaccines, medications, and modern science are the reason why. Trust the science, it’s been proven to work safely and efficiently time and time again.
This actually happened 🤦♂️

President Declines Gift of Holiday Apple Pie WASHINGTON, Oct 27 - AP - President and Mrs. Coolidge have declined an offer from the Girls' Club of Vermont University of a large apple pie for the White House Thanksgiving dinner. Although no reason was given for declining the pie, apparently it was refused because acceptance might have been taken as an endorsement by the president of the proposed apple week to be held about that time. This might be regarded as a precent for endorsement of similar movements in other parts of the country. The telegram tendering the pie said it was designed to be a part of the apple week program. --The Fresno Bee, 27 Oct 1925

"[don't] make managing your feelings the problem of random strangers" should be Rule #1 of all social media.

I'm gonna make my first million by selling home tests to people who want to know if their pets are woke.

One day he’s telling us that tariffs are amazing because they will bring lots of new jobs to the US and raise so much money we won’t have to pay income tax, then the next day he’s telling us we aren’t doing them because people were nice to him on the phone.
Fun fact: dinosaur ghosts existed but their "unfinished business" was just "eat more leaves, be dumb," so they got that out of the way quickly and then went directly to Hell because they weren't baptized.
What's striking is that Adams deal is totally in the open. Trump didn't say he was ordering charges to be dropped because he thought Adams was innocent. He said he was dropping charges because Adams is working with him. Can't get more corrupt than that.
'I know what I know if you know what I mean' is my default going forward
An image of a digital collage painting done in the style of the Obama 'HOPE' poster, except this one features elon musk jumping in the air like a loser above the word 'DORK' in bold type
I tried to make it as unhinged as possible and not to toot my own horn but I think I nailed it
when I write a sentence on here there is a secret, hidden meaning that's up to you to decipher. when I use my brain to put specific words in a specific order to communicate a specific idea, that's really just a jumping-off point for you to decide what I actually meant to say
club sandwich doesn’t get enough love. just a masterpiece of layers: crispy bacon, lunchmeat, lettuce, tomato, mayo, and that perfect triangle cut. simply brilliant
Sorry I'm not dumb enough to believe in "wind." The air doesn't just move sometimes for no reason. Ask yourself who profits from this
People try to see where the air is going, which is a fools errand - you have to ask where it came from

Republicans spent three years saying Twitter being mean to Donald Trump cost him the 2020 election (by limiting one story for a few days).
And we're supposed to say that Elon turning Twitter into a Trump campaign site in 2024 FOR THE ENTIRE ELECTION did not affect the election at all.
wait. did a shrimp fry the rice or not
Just my 2 cents. But my goal is to ignore the trolls. Give them zero attention. Block them if they annoy me.
I think the worst thing we can do on this site is re-create the ad hominem/ personal attacks that occur across comments on Twitter/insta/tiktok/ etc
