It's too bad the Age of Discovery is over. I just found something

They better not or I would be so triggered

DEFUND THE POL . . . Wait, what? www.nytimes.com/2024/06/26/u...

House G.O.P. Pushes Deep Cuts to Federal Law Enforcementwww.nytimes.com Republicans put forward a spending bill that would slash funding for federal law enforcement, though they failed to find a way to defund the special counsel prosecuting former President Donald J. Trum...

White people love to be named “Keir Starmer”

Best self-defense advice I've heard is "carry two knives," because a lot of people carry a knife for self-defense but the only person who'd carry two is some sort of crazy knife-lover you'd better not mess with.

People are getting mad at this guy instead of rejoicing at the buried lede that Martin Mull is alive after all

This is the tradcath weirdo whom the @nytimes.com is publishing to tell you not to vote. You should not listen to him. Instead, you should shove his ass into a locker and burn the entire campus containing said locker to the ground. (The campus is Hillsdale)

Dog I am not ready for the “Labour’s success proves Biden must get more transphobic” takes

Meme posted by the most unpleasant asshole you know: the problem with being empathetic is that everyone tries to take advantage of you

A weird messaging advantage to Trump as the figurehead is because he’s so personally crass people overlook that the people handling policy would be Michael Shannon’s character on Boardwalk Empire

I don't think "Trump will ban porn if he gets elected" is a winning message with the entire electorate but it probably is a winning message if you want to damper the enthusiasm of the already-only- marginally-committed-to-voting Barstool/Manosphere frat dudes for Trump.

The president in a wheelchair was a full 20 years younger than Biden, what is the point of conflating age and physical difficulties like this

IMO this is a straight-up ageist and ableist image, no?

It used to annoy me how stupid Threads was but I’m getting kind of obsessed with it

One thing we can all agree on: whichever campaign staffer wished Gaza wasn’t Biden’s biggest liability shouldn’t get to use the monkey’s paw anymore

I don’t even wanna be around anymore

honestly they’re kinda cooking with this

Haven’t really kept up on whether this is still in vogue but we love a self-care king

President Biden told a gathering of Democratic governors that he needed to sleep more and to work less at night, but said he was staying in the race.

Biden Tells Governors He Needs More Sleep and Less Work at Nightwww.nytimes.com The president’s opening remark to a group of key Democratic leaders — that he was in the race to stay — chilled any talk of his withdrawal, participants said.

How many “The Tories Should Never Have Gone Woke” columns do you think were prewritten

This man did not vote in 2020 because he was killed in the Blitz

Hopefully someone will check the Michigan voter file to see if it is true that this lad does not vote

A good Labour landslide that doesn’t come at the expense of any principles or positive vision

I am excited to see the Tories get obliterated today but I would be significantly more excited if Labour hadn’t made a hard turn into TERFdom the trans people of the UK deserve so much better

Cosby is so fucking good every time and also one of the sweetest authors I’ve ever met in person, best of both worlds

Finally read S. A. Cosby’s Blacktop Wasteland and it’s so fucking good. Oyeyemi’s Parasol Against the Axe is weird & gorgeous. Spufford’s Light Perpetual is everything I wanted it to be. Buehlman’s The Daughter’s War broke my heart. Craft: Stories I Wrote for the Devil by Lima is a wicked delight.

“I love America like Anthony Bourdain or Woody Guthrie did” is the phrasing I’ve settled on

Not to be corny but I do think the ongoing aspiration to make America a pluralist democracy of equals is righteous, beautiful, and worth honoring, even if it has more often been the struggle of minorities & dissenters than the policy of the government. 🇺🇸

Think part of how I figured out I’m probably non-binary is I wish I had Storme DeLarverie’s swag specifically

Keep thinking it's Saturday, vibes are gonna be absolutely unsalvageable tomorrow, save me Momala

It’s weird being an environmental reporter right now because like all our reporting is about the stakes but no one reads policy news compared to straight political news

"Gavin Newsom is starting a podcast with Marshawn Lynch" sounds like one of those details that you would spot in the background of a movie that tipped you off that the main character was actually dying the whole time

John Roberts must be the most neurotypical person in existence because the immunity ruling reads like someone who has never had a single “but what if…???” anxiety spiral in his life

New season of Babylon Berlin features an American gangster played by an Israeli actor but I can’t really tell because the Israeli accent sounds kind of like an American speaking German anyway

A formidable contender has emerged as a potential Democratic presidential candidate: a mysterious man with a mustache named Mr. Amabo, who comes from someplace far away

Imagining Gruesome Gavin watching “Bottoms”

I’M IN HELL

Hit the 140-page mark in my book after feeling for a while like I'd never cross 100.

Nobody has said this in like 10 years you dumb sad bitch

Only if you believe that "all bodies are beautiful," or whatever the slogan of the month is.
