'Round the time that the school doors close?
'Round the time that a hundred thousand jail cells
Open up to greet you like the reaper?

Things I’d Rather Do:
-clean the litter box with a toothbrush
-listen to country music. Not the classic stuff, the pap on 97.3 “The Eagle”
-give myself papercuts with manilla folders
-pour lemon juice in those papercuts
-then pour the lemon juice into my eyes
-have someone clap my ears

I spoke too soon.

THIS (invective about Bill Maher) is the internet comment of the day!
The only person I want to see you interview is Bill Burr, so he can dogwalk you around your own show like the post relevance schmuck that you are.

Watching you hit on that hawk tuah girl was like taking a shit and feeling one of your own balls slip out your ass. Fuck you.

Treating Executive Orders as law is another autocratic constitutional amendment that's being effected by widespread fear and judicial surrender
That said, I want to offer an important caveat that all of you probably already know: an EO is not a law, even if many authorities are currently treating them as such. So we shouldn't just accept whatever is asserted in them.

My boomer opinion is that along with home ec, (“teen living” in my day), there should be a return to technical education too. Every class featuring tablets and chromebooks should be supplemented with classes involving building or repairing things, from clothes to appliances to cars.
my similar boomer opinion is that i think “home economics” or whatever the equivalent is ought to be mandatory for students in middle and high school.
boomer opinion i have is that there are way more young adults out there who legit don’t know how to take care of themselves in very basic ways than we’d probably be comfortable with knowing

Old boy was terrible, smug &crass in 2008; his writers saved his HBO run during the Iraq War of 03 to about 2014 or so. Then he became insufferable. I always had respect for him on a low level, as a D lister at best. But after he bent the knee & had his chitchat with 47, ya naw dead to me ✌️bye bill
I think my problem with Bill Maher is that he’s washed up, but from a high point of sucking.

Doctor here.

A pregnant mother in Tennessee was denied care for being unmarried.

This is legal under Tennessee's Medical Ethics Defense Act.

We are entering a dark time in public health.

There’s getting your shit wrecked, and then there’s what’s about to happen to Candace Owens. She’s gonna find out just like Alex Jones did, what the wages of fuckery are.

What are they hiding?

Speaker Johnson had no problem keeping the House in session to jam through the Big Ugly Bill.

Apparently the only thing House Republicans love more than ripping health care away from 17 million Americans is shielding pedophiles from justice.

We have been warned about this moment for all our lives. Now it's here. What will you do about it?

Unfortunately, FIFA is hella corrupt and they’re just saying these things as a pretext to shake Trump and company down for some racket or another before they go ahead and have the games here anyways. Same for the IOC.
FIFA is considering moving the World Cup games to Canada in response to escalating fascism in the US.

Good. They should. And the Olympics should follow suit.

Refuse to normalize or reward fascism.

The US is not a safe place to visit & we should all vote with our dollar and go elsewhere.

It’s obvious Trump is going to leverage a pardon in exchange for Maxwell testifying in his favour. The fix is in.
The US Trump DOJ to meet with Ghislaine Maxwell in what increasingly appears to be part of a secret kickback.

Maxwell’s lawyer says: "We are grateful to President Trump for his commitment to uncovering the truth in this case." #3E #OpDeathEaters #Epstein

it feels like everyone including me is getting into very stupid very rancorous arguments on here over the last few days and we’d probably all be happier if we figured out how to do that less
July 22, 2025 at 3:52 AM
The Regime knows, after the revelation of the letter, that Maxwell is ready to spill the tea. They don’t wanna chance it. Watch, she’s gonna walk right out of prison and slide out somewhere without an extradition treaty.

Dgmw her life is in danger for sure. This scandal ends in a month, watch.
this got dangerous for her and might earn her a pardon...

Waiting for all the major newspapers to take up this line.
USA TODAY: “.. The president is wildly unpopular, and he is creating a crueler version of America that a sizable majority of voters reject.”

All these tensions inside the left… to me, they feel rapidly inflamed in the past week like some kind of op.

People who are largely all on the same side are picking each other to pieces when they should all be uniting against the real villains of the story.

We need to get out of our own way.

i've given this a lot of thought and considered all the circumstances and here is my conclusion: fuckin lmao
An American who moved his family to Russia to avoid LGBTQ+ “indoctrination” is being sent to the front lines despite being assured he would serve in a non-combat role.
