it’s unreal how these grown-ass men had no problem destroying untold lives with chatGPT but go crying to a judge when people make fun of them online

The crime is not just the killing of people who surrender. The crime is telling the enemy that if they surrender, they will be killed. Because when the enemy hears that they cannot surrender peaceably, the war changes from a strategic conflict to a blood-soaked deathmatch.

the country is at war and the president is leaving DC this afternoon for a weekend at his private club in Florida that he'll spend with his paying customers

anyone who believed trump would do less war than Harris is a fool or a fascist, and probably both.

I find it particularly galling that the reactionary tech oligarchs currently vying to control the world have been talked into fascism by a guru who is one of the dumbest people ever to place one letter after another. bsky.app/profile/seth...

There’s nothing that shows off what a Masculine Warfighter you are than constant mewling about how unfair and mean everyone is to you. Defiantly filling your diaper in public is the act of a Warrior!!

Let there be as much outrage from politicians in Washington when kids go hungry as there is when I break bread with New Yorkers.

Sports gambling should be legal but you should have to go to an actual building to do it and it should be so off-putting and sad you’ll never want to do it again

This site needs a break. Post 3 good things, none of which are the cessation of a negative.

1. Crunching into the crispy, bubbly, yeasty goodness of a perfectly baked pizza crust.

2. The stillness just after sunset.

3. Jazz music.

sorry basically the problem of my life is that i internalized and believed a lot of stuff people said about valuing children and loving your neighbor and living in a society at the exact moment that everyone in power decided all of that shit was fake and gay and not a way to make a living

There's a good reason people in positions like this need to choose their words carefully. He's using "no quarter" because he thinks it means "we're being tough," but it's a real term and opponents will take a different meaning

This pushes opponents to declare no quarter because we did it first

The P51 is one of my favorite vintage fountain pens. They are stylish and dependable pens. The one you have looks to be in great shape, too.

He doesn’t want pictures taken that make him look bad yet he goes in front of cameras and spews nonsensical word salad almost daily. The Sec of Defence is dangerously incompetent with zero self-awareness.

it took just over a year to get from "I'll lower costs on day one" to "I'm raising prices and it's good, actually"

Right wing country singers beating their heads against the wall, trying to make pedophilia, high priced gasoline, rolling over to Russia and Saudi Arabia, losing your social security because of dumbass elon musk and A.I. screwing everything up as acceptable and patriotic in a doofy assed song

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.
