Like, genuinely, if you want to know why people think there is a "crime problem", your first stop should be examining the fact that local news kicks off every night informing people about inconsequential drug possession and shoplifting arrests and treating them like Watergate.

What a sick joke. A loud swath of Americans made child sex trafficking their top issue, said powerful figures were covering it up. A wealth child sex trafficker gets caught, the president was obviously involved with his crimes and trying to cover it up, and the anti-pedophiles like and defend him.

We built a calculator that doesn't work, but don't worry, it's also a plagiarism machine that will tell you to kill yourself. It runs on the world's oceans and costs 10 trillion dollars.

3 months ago, I was complaining about how lame the show was. It had incredible Boomer shitlib energy and every other guest was some asshole like Henry Kissinger or James Carville.

Colbert seems like a great guy. But I thought the show sucked pretty bad.
I really don’t know how to explain it other than “I bet you Stephen Colbert takes a sec to type out words like ‘Drumpf’ and ‘Rethuglican’ every single time”

kind of feel like all media subscriptions should be on a dedicated credit card, once a year you report it stolen and that breaks all auto-renewals & you’re forced to ask yourself if you really want to stick with that one publication

Can’t believe they picked a ::checks notes:: staunch Catholic to be the Pope
Pope Leo XIV affirms the family is founded on the “stable union between a man and a woman,” and that the unborn have inherent dignity as God’s creatures, articulating Catholic teaching on marriage and abortion at the start of his pontificate.
Pope Leo XIV affirms family is based on union between a man and a woman, unborn has inherent dignity
Leo, the first American pope, also called for reviving multilateral diplomacy and promoting dialogue between religions in the search for peace.

What George Lucas got right about the original trilogy, but has never managed to replicate since, is that I was a little kid when those came out

Bluesky is a retirement home for 39 year old millennials who are forcibly turning themselves into history dads (nongendered) so if you have a hot take about one of the more popular history dad wars you had better come strapped

I genuinely don’t think terminally-online right wing weirdos like JD Vance are even capable of understanding how weird this stuff sounds to the average bill-paying American
Seems like we have bigger foreign policy priorities than attempting to interfere with domestic politics in Germany.

What is it with so many of the Baby Boomers always trying to take credit for winning WW2?

Don’t forget that their parents (the ones who actually won the war) called them the “Me Genration”.

I know this will rile feathers but “you don’t know how an LLM works!” is as effective as “you don’t know what AR-15 stands for!”

People lose all ability to reason when food safety comes into the conversation. Any effort to keep people from poisoning themselves is a government conspiracy and this is not an attitude relegated to one side or the other.
i feel like all the "just grow and preserve your own food" morons yapping on here are doing so bc they've never actually done either of those things, bc it is unbelievably easy to kill your family and yourself with improper food handling and canning techniques. you do not fuck around with botulism

LOUDER FOR THE BOOMERS IN THE BACK PLZ
Cheeto, Drumpf, Orange Whatever - that shit doesn’t help. It has been so overused that now it is hack, and doesn’t hit the mark comedically. Worse, it sounds like babytalk about a man who is a very real threat. When you use these cringey slang terms it’s like calling a TBI a “boo-boo”.

One thing I’ve noticed is that if someone is talking about “processed foods” there is a 99% or greater chance they do not know what the word “processed” means when it comes to food
