BREAKING: Tatsuya Imai goes to Astros

Here’s to a better 2026, when the #Astros will win the AL West and the Republicans will get stomped in the midterms!

Really looking forward to this
2026 is midterms and it’s the year we get going on putting these assholes in the dumpster of history where they belong

This is a strange way of saying “we’re complying with court orders now that we failed to get #SCOTUS to stay them.”
Trump announces he’s pulling the National Guard from Portland, LA, and Chicago but threatens that “We will come back, perhaps in a much different and stronger form, when crime begins to soar again - Only a question of time!”

Just a reminder that you don’t have to take him seriously when he says stuff!
Elon Musk promised a lot of things by 2025

- colonists arriving on Mars
- xAI achieving AGI
- Tesla robotaxis serving half the U.S.
- completely driverless robotaxis
- a Tesla Roadster demo
- DOGE cutting trillions

none of them happened

Everything Elon Musk promised in 2025, but didn't deliver
Musk is now infamous for his false promises, but even this is excessive.

Every time I read about what the set of Community was like, I find myself contrasting it to everything I've read about Mike Schur's sets, and his "No Assholes" policy. (Excerpt from www.thecrimson.com/article/2019... )

whaaaat
This is true and I was the only one on set excited about it (and playing the song on my phone to blank stares)
Just watched the new Knives Out and I think it's really important you know that the scene in the Seminary's Gym is filmed in the same place Rick Astley filmed the music video for Never Gonna Give You Up.

I saw the window tracery and immediately made my friends pause the film so I could tell them.

This cracks me up every time

Nothing but good vibes around that plot, too!
whatever 2026 holds i don't think anything next year will be funnier than Chicago Pope. 2025 was overall a huge stinker but Chicago Pope was an all time great B-plot

President Trump’s spiteful defamation suit against the Pulitzer Prize Board may backfire, as the latter is now demanding Trump’s psychological records, prescription medication records, and tax returns in the discovery process. trib.al/LUCScTR

Pope Leo said in a Christmas Eve sermon that the story of Jesus being born in a stable because there was no room at an inn should remind Christians that refusing to help the poor and strangers today is tantamount to rejecting God himself. For @reuters.com

The year was kind of tumultuous but my husband and I both have good jobs and our kids are happy and healthy and I feel kind of guilty given the state of the world but things have been going well for our family!
Hey if I resolve to celebrate other people’s successes will y’all resolve to share your successes more widely damn

Brett Kavanaugh (September 2025): The facts and how they relate to the law don’t matter. Assume ICE and other federal forces always act with integrity, always respect rights, and consistently impose minimal burden.

Brett Kavanaugh (December 2025): Should I not have done that? Was that wrong?
Kavanaugh in a footnote in today's opinion says "the officers must not make interior immigration stops or arrests based on race or ethnicity."

Heck yeah
“Health Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr. came within hours of publicly promoting Denmark’s childhood vaccine schedule as an option for American parents — before legal &political concerns got in the way…the HHS Office of the General Counsel said it would invite a lawsuit the administration could lose”
RFK Jr. wanted to endorse the Danish vaccine schedule. He was forced to pull back.
Legal and political concerns prompted the health department to cancel a planned announcement on Friday, officials said.

This is the evil villain’s plan in more than one movie!
Private company wants to put up space mirrors that can beam 'full noontime sun' to anywhere on the night side of Earth. I might be OK with preemptive shoot downs of these satellites rather than allow this to become an unregulated real industry

Obviously it's bad but it is very funny/on-brand for Trump to be going around grafting "The Donald J. Trump And" onto stuff that people actually respect in the hopes of getting rounded up into it. The Donald J. Trump And Orioles Park At Camden Yards ass. The Donald J. Trump And Chrysler Building.

I think it's good to keep getting mad about evil and unjust things, if only to remind yourself and everyone else that these things are in fact evil and unjust. I don't think it's naive. Nor is it wise and sophisticated to adopt a "You fool, nothing matters and nothing good can ever happen" posture
