A recent post about Judy Baar Topinka asking "what's she thinking?" failed to meet my editorial standards and has been removed. As a content creator I am constantly learning and growing, and I promise to do better going forward.

Errol Morris trying to interview Pete Hegseth using the special camera he used in Fog of War where the interview subject sees Morris looking directly back at them, but Pete Hegseth keeps pawing at it confused like a raccoon
This would be the most "actually just Robocop" event to cap off this stupid fucking era.
we need to end him
a 2028 campaign ad where the average american voter is represented as the guy from memento but all the tattoos are like “every republican president destroys the economy and starts a war in the middle east“ or “trump was president during covid”
You know there are groups of cranks or extremists who in an effort to make their position sound more respectable adopt a serious sounding name for their outfit. ‘The National Policy Institute’ sounds a bunch of poli-sci academics, it was however a white nationalist front
I love the "could this be a solution" post because it's a perfect example of Founder brain. You have to be a special kind of stupid to imagine that you are the first person to come up with the idea of driving around the Strait of Hormuz. It's being so dumb that you think everyone else is even dumber
Look at the smile on his face. He's talking about Iranian children. That's the enemy. If he's allowed to walk amongst the people a free man when this is all over then we are hopeless as a country. We will never be a true democracy if nothing happens to them.
The messaging is always "Look we all know and agree that you people have to get fucked a bit, that's just how it is. We'd love to shave that fucking down 10% tops."
re my last reposts there are also very few if any Democrats saying "you are getting fucked. they are gouging you." Which is true and everyone knows it.
Yes democrats talk about "affordability" but everyone also knows to them that means a widget should cost $49 instead of $50 etc.
Elad Simchayoff on twitter: I interviewed two Israeli Air Force pilots who are part of the operation in Iran. When I asked what it felt like to enter Iranian airspace for the first time, one of them said: “You find yourself thinking, what do these people, so far away from us, actually want from us? They have a huge and beautiful country. Right now full of snow and lakes. Truly a very, very beautiful place. What do they want from us, this small piece of land? It’s such a strange feeling.”
A surprising number of Israelis seem to have already forgotten that they're the ones who started the war.
there is a child-like naivety to the way business leaders approach sociopolitical problems that would be really sweet if it wasn't coming from the leader of a company with 30,000 employees and 3 billion dollars in revenue
lmao let’s goooo
Rare Kam Buckner L. I’d sooner be forgotten a thousand times than have a highway named after me.
Here’s a better idea. In 2020 we renamed (Stephan A.) Douglas Park to (Anna and Frederick) Douglass Park.
Let’s change (Andrew) Jackson Park to (Jesse) Jackson Park.
President Donald Trump, the Oracles tell me that "If you attack the Persians, you will destroy a great empire"
So funny to see anyone bragging about their writing being good. The point of writing is to hate yourself during literally every moment of it
democrats still seem to be laboring under the delusion that they can introduce stuff to pass while trump is president and they, not trump, will somehow get credit for it. they learned nothing from trump taking credit for covid stimulus checks
i genuinely cannot process how debased our ruling class is. these guys will walk around all day in shoes that don't fit rather than tell their boss he's wrong. this whole thing where they pretend a stupid evil guy with brain damage is qualified to run every aspect of everyone's life is unacceptable
I really hate podcasts that are actual news. I am begging you, if you have a podcast that is real journalism, please release some form of written component. I don't care if you just post a transcription. I don't really feel like listening to it and I just want to read.
I think there is something to explore that many nations at the WBC have come showing what they love about their country (dancing, celebration, tradition) to represent the people while the American team has shown up representing and only celebrating the military
spoken to someone at the Congressional Budget Office, and they've told me, the time to steal copper, car batteries, catalytic converters, and buy solar panels, is now
If Italy has a team in the world baseball classics than Ireland should also have a team to display the prowess of Irish American greats Troy O’Leary, wade boggs and Shohei O’htani
its only been like a week and this is already one of the stupidest things anyone's ever posted
personally i'm rooting for the burger quadrant tonight
I really hope that the pendulum swings the other way and for the first time ever we get a cultural environment like the one every conservative imagined we had where you can never criticize trans people and if you fire one of us your life is ruined.
MrBeast competition to see who can make it through the Strait of Hormuz
