I will be blind for life. I have fractures in my skull that they can't fix. I can't sneeze or cough bc it's dangerous to. They pulled a piece of plastic the size of a nickel out of my eye. I had shards of metal, glass, and plastic behind my eye and in my skull. They said it was a miracle I survived.

Dave’s been saying this and stuff like it since the 90s. It’s one of the reasons you think his music sucks or whatever other vaguely negative emotions you have about him - because saying it even then had consequences.
DAVE MATTHEWS: “I don’t want my taxes to pay for masked thugs to roam our streets & terrorize our communities... She was trying to get away. He shot her 3x in the head. Murdered in cold blood. They’re trying to tell us not to believe what we see. FUCK ICE.”

My sense is that the “male loneliness crisis” is not really about addressing men’s emotional needs but rather the relatively newfound absence of having someone to perform domestic labor for you quietly in the background now that there is a longer gap between your mother and your wife doing it

Yeah. Once you hit the point where Big Balls gets a medal of freedom, the health secretary is bloodletting with lampreys, and there’s wrestling on the South Lawn, you’ve pretty much jumped the Idiocracy shark.

Mike Crapo said the “Big Beautiful Bill” wouldn’t touch Medicaid. Then, as Senate Finance Chair, he slashed it. Now, 70,000 Idahoans could lose their health insurance.
He lied. Plain and simple.

just saw a group of masked men stuffing masked ICE agents into an unmarked car, who were saying "we're ICE we're ICE!" but the abductors shouted to the crowd "no we're ICE!" no one knew who was ICE, so no one in the crowd said anything.

DOGE is actually INCREASING the deficit.
It has cut only a small fraction of what it’s claimed to cut.
And it’s cutting the IRS and CFPB — both of which GAIN revenue for the government.
So DOGE is a money loser — except for Elon Musk, who profits off fat government contracts.
