The greatest trick that the devil ever pulled was convincing you that not listening to their ideas was living in an echo chamber and a Very Bad Thing for you.

Sure, and is this free press in the room with you now? Is it the same free press that is owned by, like, 3 right-wing billionaires or is it a different free press?

Great read from Dan Rather:
"...The very existence of a free press is a threat to this president’s modus operandi, which is to govern by lying. Why would he want people around him who ask for facts and truthful answers?..."

every time a community tests ubi or free housing for the homeless the result is always "holy fuck this works incredibly well and costs less than existing solutions!" and then every politician alive does this

An Oregon pilot program giving cash to homeless youths sees a staggering reduction in homelessness. The program gave participants $1,000 cash payments each month for two years, and at the end of the project's first phase, 91% of participants reported being in stable housing.

Adams dropped for Scotland 🙌
I'm not saying he's been anonymous but are we truly 100% positive that we're not going to learn he was the first CGI footballer and was never actually there, like the lines they draw on the football pitch when the wee guy has to throw the egg a certain distance?

Sometimes you get so used to Excel that you get numb to it and then you're in a shared document watching someone else trying to add a column with a formula you remember what a pain in the ass this program is.

Poker Face could've been a great show if they had actually had the guts to stick to being a mystery of the week show, but no, instead it just needed that awful overarching story to be a big deal and now it's cancelled on a cliffhanger so good job everyone 👏👏👏

idk the NYT called up ms rachel to ask if she was funded by hamas so i'm not sure the NYT exactly has impeccable judgment on what makes a whole news story
The emails that you’re seeing now are news in themselves, but that’s because of how they’re coming out—a congressional committee released them—& the context in which they’re being viewed. A guy emailing a reporter talking about old girlfriends or saying someone is “dirty” is not a whole news story.

The idea that anyone should give even a fraction of a shit about giving 2 weeks notice to a company always makes me chuckle. The pro-business propaganda on that one is strong.
You don't owe them anything - that's what the whole exchange of services for money thing was about. Fuck 'em.

we're not going to catch 30% of the population in some elaborate logical snafu and they'll suddenly just snap out of it and stumble out of the shadows, blinking against the bright, rainbow-tinged sunshine.
MAGA: he's right, woke liberals have no talent.
There. MAGA has seen it, now what?
Like seriously, now what? Move on to the next soundbite?
