why the hell does this place have Boise St-SD St and Wyoming-Fresno St on instead of the actual literal local NHL game? Are there big Wyoming heads hanging around Seattle?

Remember when your parents corrected your dining manners because "someday you might have dinner with the President"? And now, it turns out the manners of the people close to the President entail saying things like "i thnik youd like metting her ... . shes kinda yuong tho"

The person running for Stevens Pass sewer district commissioner appears to have not even voted for themselves.

*Marries someone educated at Stanford, UC and UT systems*

This is the tone of voice you use when you feel secure and confident in your position
Bluesky has a 3-minute limit but here's most of Trump's new video telling Republicans to end the filibuster.

"It was their idea originally, Obama and Harry Reid, in order to screw the Republicans, and now we can turn it around and we can screw the Democrats and make our country so strong."

Is New York going to turn into a hyper-permissive 24/7 Folsom Street Fair or is it going to be a sexually repressed Sharia Law backwater? I just need to know what clothes to pack next time I visit.

The thing about Mamdani is that being a big city mayor is inherently toxic. Everyone on here is going to hate him in approx. 2 months. It’s still good that he won, but arguably gave up the ability to be an actual national leader

Is any 79 year old in optimal health every day? Hell, is anyone in optimal health every day? I'm a 26 year old with generally excellent fitness (cardio-wise, at least) and it would be weird if she said that about me.
Q: Why did Trump get an MRI at Walter Reed?

LEAVITT: As President Trump said, he would inquire with the physicians. I'll check back on that. Every single the day president is in optimal physical health

Climate change warrior Donald J. Trump! Preventing people from using air travel is one of the most important ways to reduce carbon emissions and other forms of pollution.
Q: Should people fly next and is the administration encouraging people to stop flying altogether and look at alternative transportation modes?

LEAVITT: The administration is encouraging Democrats to reopen the government

Nothing is scarier than the wanton firing of public servants responsible for safeguarding public lands from damaging forest fires.

Wait, is the restarting nuclear testing thing just the same thing as ending the filibuster? Did someone tell him “we need to use the nuclear option”, and he went and tweeted about testing weapons before anyone could stop him and clarify?

I feel like the sheer number of layoffs happening this week should cause some prestige outlet to publish an “Are we entering a recession?” article. But apparently pattern recognition isn’t allowed anymore in major newsrooms.

I'm pretty sure if I met my dad's cousin, he would introduce them as "This is my cousin, idk what that makes her to you, probably like an aunt or something." Not even in an immigrant community "great respect for your elders" kind of way, but just as practical need to create some shorthand around it.

Seems like pretty bad constitutional design that the President can tell the military to do war-like actions outside of a war. We're getting to (already at?) the point where retaliation by COL/VEN is justified, which would force Congress to declare war. The sole sanction for this is impeachment, yes?

So glad they finally optimized the weather. Took a bit too long imo

This article offers critical support for the “Everyone is 12 years old” theory of politics: Oh, you think everyone should live in a big single family home and want to stop people from living in apartments? Of course you do, you’re 12.

I keep seeing libs on here make comments wrt the White House East Wing like "He's destroying the people's house to build himself a palace."

The White House has always been a palace. We have weird feelings about that word, so we don't use it. But it is a palace in every sense of the word.
