She wasn't attracted to the right by the romanticized aesthetic of "traditional America" - big beautiful houses and bread-making and families with half a dozen children. Rather, she says, "I was in love with the frisson of transgression." The online right had begun to engage more explicitly with forbidden subjects: nativism, race science, and gender essentialism drawn from evolutionary psychology. "There was an element of gnosticism to it," she says, "the sense that you know secret things that other people don't know."

outright saying you're not even in it for the fake cottagecore tradwife stuff, you just really like the racism and transphobia is crazy work

Jeffrey Epstein used a 2006 physics conference to cultivate ties with elite researchers, including Stephen Hawking. New documents and interviews show Epstein funded events to bolster prestige before first arrest for soliciting minors, using Nobel laureates as human shields for his reputation.

Reza Pahlavi urges Iranians to await ‘final call’ | The Jerusalem Post Pahlavi, working alongside allied experts, has also developed a detailed “Emergency Phase” plan for governing Iran in the immediate aftermath of the Islamic Republic’s fall.

I dont think Iran needs a planted leader.

Don’t forget the way they‘ve been strangling Cuba with the intention of an imminent takeover.

They can’t do one thing at A time well, so we’ll see how this goes.

oh for cryin out loud what fresh hell is this now?

They’re systematically taking out missile defense systems with the help of Russia. I think they plan to finish that job. They still control the strait. Can’t imagine why they would give up that leverage

look, it's very simple:

1) collect a roadrunner from Arizona
2) have it paint a tunnel on a rock well south of the strait of hormuz
3) sail the oil tankers safely through the tunnel

BREAKING: The usually snarky White House account has not responded to Iran’s attacks on social media! Thank you for your attention to this matter!

The view is looking along to the bow of the ship. To the right are burning oil storage tankers with red flames and black smoke billowing into the air. To the left, a small boat is on fire while a different, firefighting boat is in the foreground spraying water out of multiple on-board hoses. To the left, other buildings on the port shoreline are on fire. It is a scene of chaos

V.A. Begins Drive to Put Some Homeless Veterans Into Guardianship

What. The fuck.

Trump’s experience is more like committing insurance fraud.

Of course he thinks there is some loophole of free money. That’s how he operates.

Just stumbling around trying to figure out how the world works.

In South Burlington, Vermont, protesters are being tear-gassed by ICE and local police as they attempt to prevent a kidnapping.

In the last 24 hours, Iran has:

- Struck three ships trying to cross the Strait of Hormuz, disabling a Thai cargo ship
- Blown up a large oil storage facility in Oman
- Struck two oil tankers at harbor in Iraq, setting both ablaze.
- Blown up oil storage tanks next to Bahrain’s main airport

Dozens of U.S. service members in Kuwait suffered serious injuries, including burns, brain trauma and shrapnel wounds, sources say About 30 U.S. service members remained hospitalized Tuesday after an Iranian drone strike in Kuwait.

We have gained so many new friends during the Trump presidency.

So people can go through easy peasy now, huh

New visual metaphor for the Trump administration just dropped.

Elon Musk is now worth $845 billion.

Tesla reported paying ZERO federal income tax on $5.7 billion of U.S. income in 2025.

Meanwhile, nearly a quarter of Americans are living paycheck to paycheck and household debt has risen to a record high.

See the problem here?

The president is unwell. In so many ways.

Trump: Gavin Newscum's interview weeks ago was, perhaps, the most self destructive interview I've ever seen. In one fell swoop, he took himself out of even being considered as the Presidential Nominee of the Crazy (as proven at the State of the Union Address) Democrats. He said, in a speech, he was dumb, had low Boards, can't read, has dyslexia, and has a mental disorder - A Cognitive Mess! On top of that, Black People are angry because he is obviously a racist. While we all want to be politically correct, having a mental disorder is not a positive campaign event. Also, this was a politically suicidal act. The only thing he didn't say is he is losing his look, but nobody wants to say that about one's self. He is no longer a viable Presidential Candidate!

This is quite a Trump post about Gavin Newsom. A goldmine for psychologists in every line.

“The only thing he didn't say is he is losing his look, but nobody wants to say that about one's self.”

Wrote this yesterday. TIL from @motherjones.com it might've been Melania on the fuckjet? I now think "EXEC1F" means "Top Executive office FLOTUS."

Trump ended the IRS Direct File program that allowed millions of taxpayers to file taxes for free.

That happened after Intuit, the maker of TurboTax, lobbied the government to block the IRS from launching its own program.

Intuit also donated $1 million to Trump’s inauguration.

See how this works?
