I have not been able to get enough of this video since being turned onto it. The studio version was already wild but this is downright insane; one of the best things I've ever seen.

So now even certain fonts are enemies of the people. Just another day in the stupidest timeline ever.
Marco Rubio claims Calibri font is DEI and unbefitting the dignity of government documents. 😐
A. Does our government have dignity?
I don't think the world is judging us on our DEI typeface.
B. Is Rubio a font racist? MFTA? Make Font Times Again?
C. Do typefaces NEED equity & inclusion?

If any other 79-year-old man sat on his front porch and shouted this screed word for word, the neighbors would be calling the police to do a wellness check.

Literally nobody is going to come to this country anymore. If I were in an industry that relies on foreign tourism I'd be looking for a new job.

Fun fact: the Eagles are 8-1 when Barkley has 14+ carries and 0-5 when Hurts has 33+ pass attempts. So naturally, Patullo only called 7 rushes for Barkley in the second half and overtime last night.

A lot of worse things to criticize tonight, but what kind of moron chooses to kick in overtime when possessions are at a premium?

I can't think of a bigger indictment of the American education system than the fact that voters put this psychotic imbecile in the White House TWICE.
I mean, do we talk enough about how deranged this person is—and how he should be miles away from the levers of power?

The first reporter he berates who says "fuck my job," gives him the finger, tells him to go fuck himself, and storms out, will be a national hero.

Just finished watching Ken Burns' "The American Revolution" and came away depressed knowing that the republic so many fought and died for is being systematically annihilated by this fascist regime.

It seems even he has grown bored with the recurring ritual of his sycophantic cabinet publicly fellating him.
I just find it hilarious that his whole cabinet is sloberring praise all over him with ridiculous hyperbole and he is falling asleep while they're doing it.

In an era of insanity, I still didn't have "President of the United States accuses former first lady of illegal pardons eight years after she left the White House" on my bingo card.

Who knew that filling your cabinet with the people you most recently saw on TV would turn out to be an unsound governing strategy?

For Eagles fans, he'll always be the one who got away because Roseman thought he was just a possession receiver. Is Reagor even still in the league?
Someone take Justin Jefferson away to a better place, we are killing this amazing man

I think it's highly likely considering that he still believes asylum seekers come from insane asylums.
It is time to seriously consider the possibility that this failed president doesn't even know what the term "vetting" means

One of the worst Eagles losses in franchise history. At this point it's coaching malpractice to continue allowing Patullo to call plays.

That Republicans suck is a given, but fuck every Democrat who voted for this. So they're now against all of the social programs and safety nets they've supposedly been fighting for all this time?
The House of Representatives voted 285–98 in favor of a resolution condemning socialism.
86 Dems joined Republicans in supporting the measure, incl. House Minority Leader Hakeem Jeffries.
