Trying not to fuel another social media addiction but may as well set up here just in case.
It can be true that Charlie Kirk raised entirely innocent children who now have to grow up without a father and that political/gun violence is a horrifying epidemic in this country, AND that Kirk knowingly used his platform to spread dangerous misinformation and demonize vulnerable communities.

Everything that’s happened over the past six months has been a response to an imaginary crisis. There is no immigrant invasion. No trade crisis. No scientific or governance crisis. Just people completely high off their own supply trying to fundamentally reorder society. None of this had to happen.

The thing to remember about Andrew Cuomo's breakfast order is that he resigned the governorship in disgrace after being credibly accused of sexually harassing at least 11 women with unwanted groping, kissing and sexual comments

Jabba the Hutt is a vital part of the worldbuilding in Star Wars. The Empire has all this energy to put down supposed rebellions on Ghorman meanwhile there's an entire planet basically run by crimelords and what the fuck is this supposedly law-and-order-loving Emperor doing about it

The HHS report on gender dysphora -- henceforth the "Trump Report" -- really is that apocalyptic of a broadside against trans people. Nothing in it is law -- yet. Which is why it's a good time for cis people to make angry noises about it and trans people to make plans for what to do next.

I have in general become way less tolerant of ‘crunchy’ bullshit since ascension of people like RFK jr. to actual power. Sorry but the obnoxious Reddit science and logic guys were right, you should be scorned for believing objectively wrong things about consequential issues.

A friendly reminder to all my friends that there's nothing at Target that you can't already get at Best Buy or Costco (especially now that they're phasing out of physical media, not that that's the most important thing in all this, but still).
there is a decent chance i never spend a single dime at target again in my life www.startribune.com/target-gave-...
Target gave $1M to Trump inauguration fund, a first for the company
President Donald Trump raised a record amount of cash for his inauguration, including donations from several companies with operations in Minnesota.

Okay, I'm going to repeat my Lorde/Weezer theory:
1st album: The big one with all the hits
2nd album: The beloved fan favorite that didn't sell very well
3rd album: The dippy happy one that split the fanbase
So if I have this right, the next video should have the Muppets in it

"Can't understand what I mean," chuckled Ed, seeing my confusion. Then he looked me dead in the eyes, and the smile dropped from his face. "Well... you soon will," he told me, and just stared at me for a couple seconds, repressed rage behind his cold eyes.
"...One week," he said, and walked away.

So this is kind of awkward but it’s been on my mind lately and I know it’s probably nothing but I’ve gotta ask. And be honest, because I need someone I can count on to tell the truth. Okay, so…do you ...

It's depressing that even after all this Kanye bullshit, I guarantee his next album is gonna debut at #1 since his fans have deluded themselves into thinking making Graduation 18 years ago means a free pass for life (never mind his last good album was in 2016, and even then it was only decent).

It’s honestly depressing and frankly very telling how many people I know who wouldn’t hesitate to (rightfully, I must emphasize!) call Biden out on his catastrophic handling of the Gaza crisis, and yet have been shockingly silent over this monstrous proposal this morning.
President Trump repeatedly doubled down on his suggestion that nearly 2 million Palestinians should be relocated from battle-leveled Gaza to new homes elsewhere so that the US could send troops to the Strip, take ownership and build the “Riviera of the Middle East.” Read more analysis:
