Boy I bet the faculty at UVA are just loving this moment.
Glenn Youngkin takes a victory lap on Fox for University of Virginia ending DEI and says it's a step toward restoring the values of Thomas Jefferson

This is not a serious suggestion. This is a taunt. She is taunting us, flaunting her ability to do so in the face of the media.
Trump’s Sec of Agriculture Brooke Rollins says the solution to high egg prices for Americans is to get some chickens and raise them in your backyard.

I appreciate that the Bluesky algorithm has apparently learned from my relentless muting to stop showing me Woolwich fan accounts.

But now it’s endless Pool posts. Certainly an improvement but I’m fully COYS and the last thing I want is more news about the league this season.

The Deshaun Watson trade continues its destructive impact on the Browns. With Baker the Browns would have been a playoff contender or more.

Now with Myles leaving, and good for him, the team is effectively back to 2016. Cleveland fans deserved better than the this.

Glad I left when I did.

Hearing a stadium of people do a caricature of an Indigenous chant makes me wonder how KC dodged the criticisms of Cleveland, Washington, Illinois, et. al.

But then again I’ve thought this every year that team has been in the hunt and yet it never seems to hit the discourse.

The speed at which elite academic institutions are abandoning racial justice efforts mere days after Trump entered office reveals how paper thin their commitment truly is.

If the suppression of Gazan protestors didn’t convince you that academic institutions are deeply conservative, this should

The internet is not prepared for what online Brazilians will do to celebrate if Fernanda Torres wins an Oscar.

I have now muted a dozen Woolwich accounts that show up in my discovery feed.

At what point will the Bluesky algorithm realize that I do not in fact want to see that content?

I wonder how much Gatorade pays for that scan up shot from behind the Gatorade station that they show in every single football game

A collection of the lovely Christmas replies I received for daring to suggest the person I voted for didn’t run a perfect campaign and should not have tried to court the center/right.

I am particularly fond of the message suggesting I should die in a labor camp.

Im beginning to think that if I wanted I could blame trans people for Gareth Southgate and the weather in London and I could get the Telegraph to publish me.

TERFs really will blame trans people for everything over there.
Everyone can see this is insane and that Suzanne Moore is a fucking joke right?

One can be reminded of many things with this narrative but what most sticks in my mind is the assassination of Ernst vom Rath. I can’t help but see a media ecosystem eager to be the first to kick off our own Kristallnacht.

They want so desperately to validate the violence they know is coming.
In a discussion of the murder of UnitedHealthcare's CEO Fox News host Harris Faulkner suggests that undocumented immigration is making "the work harder for the NYPD because they are already dealing with rampant crime uptick from those individuals who came here illegally."
