Remember high school when they explained the commutative property of some math operations? This guy doesn’t
FOX: If you cut something by 100%, the cost goes down to 0. If you cut it by 600%, the drug companies are actually paying you

LUTNICK: What he's saying is if a drug was $100 and you bring it down to $13, it's down 7 times

F: Not a 600% cut

L: But it's 700% higher price before. It's down 700% now

Remember that it’s the radical left loonies who glorify death and violence. The right protects and honors the sanctity of life

Sigh. When the stock is up, the trading window is open, now that the trading window is open, stock is down

Why are my trade restrictions so much stricter than members of congress?

Good thing the evangelicals are bringing back those good old-fashioned Christian values, like empathy and compassion and kindness
this is one of the most psychotic things Trump has ever posted

This is so fucking boss!

Also, my father was a marine corp vet who came to this country when he was 12 and they absolutely would have shipped him back if he were still alive
MAGAZINER: How many veterans have you deported?

NOEM: We haven't deported veterans

MAGAZINER: We are now joined on Zoom by a combat veteran you deported to Korea

🤦🏿‍♂️For people outside the US to know how silly this is...

Everyone in the US, and I mean everyone, knows that a disproportionate number of US homes *are built by* undocumented workers from Mexico and El Salvador.🤡

This isn't "unskilled labor." These are skilled trades men and women. They are FAST.

Yeah, in the world of cloud computing, Brewster’s Millions is kind of a joke. Spend $30M in a month and don’t own anything? Sure, let me calculate a 100 trillion digits of pi, find all the prime numbers under a googol or stream Twitter into an AI. I could burn $30M a month without sweating

UPDATE: Another Chicago-area church has put up an immigration-themed Nativity scene.

A church member at Urban Village Church sent this one along, where Mary, Joseph and Jesus are gone and replaced with a sign that reads: “Due to ICE activity in our community, the Holy Family is in hiding.”

What is the quintessential Onion headline? The strong contender that just randomly popped in my mind is "Hank Williams Jr. Honored by Institute For Football Preparedness"

You know how people never talk about more than ~10 or 12 kids when talking about very large families or farm families from 100 years ago? I discovered it’s because by the time you get 12 kids, that first one has become a teenager and you’re no longer interested in having more kids 😒

How broken is today's frontend culture?

A friend points out that the median *mobile* page is now larger than a copy of DOOM (2.6 MiB vs. 2.48 MiB), the 75th percentile page is more than 2 DOOMs, and the P90 mobile page is 4.5x the size of DOOM:

The irony in this series of posts is mind-numbing.

“These people hate you for your beliefs”

“Yeah, especially Muslims”

“Yeah, we hate Muslims”

No, it’s brilliant! Give the money directly to the people to pay for healthcare.

Or wait! What if we skip the middleman and have the gov’t pay the people’s medical expenses for them! No insurance companies. Just one single payer - the gov’t! I think he might be on to something…
and i thought his understanding of Grocery was bad
Hey kids the Trump Healthcare

South Africa shouldn’t even be in the Gs anymore. Why was South Africa ever in the G’s? Africa doesn’t begin with G. North Africa isn’t in the G’s. Guatemala, Guyana, they should be in the G’s. South Africa should be in the A’s…
Trump: "For generations Miami has been a haven for those fleeing communist tyranny in South Africa. I mean, if you take a look at what's going on in parts of South Africa. Look at South Africa, what's going on. Look at South America, what's going on. You know, we have a G20 meeting in South Africa."

I love all the memes from the Midwest Republicans who’ve never stepped foot in NYC talking about how New Yorkers “forgot” 9/11 because they elected Mamdani. Fuck those guys. They weren’t the ones trying to call their mom downtown on that day to find out if she was anywhere near the crash.
