What was the joke? Who was the butt of this joke?


Yes yes, I’m sure the pissed-off MAGA base have seen the error of their ways and will make amends by voting for Vance
Feels like there should be a Minecraft mod to do this.


I’m not a believer myself. And yet. The length and specificity of this list of parallels between what the Bible says about the Anti-Christ and the behavior and character of our dear leader gives me pause.


Come on, guys, he’s just saying what everyone is already thinking. Right?


“Regrettably, such resources have been misapplied in prior years to pursue media headlines and run up numbers…”
Well, yes, of course, the famously reticent and modest-to-a-fault trump regime would never exaggerate numbers or do anything rash just to conjure up headlines.


So they’re too liberal, and weak on crime?
I don’t know how many Hark, A Vagrant strips featured the Straw Feminists, but here’s their introduction, I believe.
Edit: The dangerous time-suck rabbit-hole-o-matic website, TVTropes, has a page for “Straw Feminist,” which links to Hark, A Vagrant.


…federal immigration officials attempted to use the tariff statute to unmask the president’s critics before, during the first Trump administration, and were reprimanded for doing so by the Department of Homeland Security’s Office of the Inspector General in a 2017 report.


In its summons, ICE indicated the basis for its request was a provision of the Smoot-Hawley Tariff Act of 1930 . John Doe informed the court that they had nothing to do with the kind of activities at issue in the near-century-old statute, which governs boat show sales, wild animal imports, forfeited wines and spirits, and cross-border trade in other goods.



Everything he does makes sense, if you can accept that he sees the United States itself as an rival for the attention and praise that is rightly his. Commanding other people’s attention, redirecting it to himself, has been the only trick behind his falling-up success, his whole life. This is what they mean when they say “all publicity is good publicity.”
Now we’re not talking about Iran, we’re not talking about America’s future, we’re talking about him.


Are… are the ceasefire talks in the room with us now, Donnie?
Edit: Trump Was Watching a U.F.C. Fight in Miami While Iran Talks Collapsed


One of the criticisms of the Artemis program is that NASA’s SLS rocket is Titantically, catastrophically expensive compared to SpaceX rockets. Or compared to the Saturn IV rocket. Compared to just about everything.
Artemis III is supposed to involve a commercially-made moon lander, probably from SpaceX. Artemis IV is supposed to build a space station in lunar orbit, on the back of about a zillion SpaceX rocket launches.
I don’t know everything, but I don’t think NASA’s in any position to tell Elon Musk off.
Grain of salt: Most of what I think I know about Artemis is from a very long, very detailed, very critical and persuasive blog post by someone who isn’t even an engineer as far as I know.
Even in pre-history, men were somehow convinced that what women really wanted was: bigger dicks. Bigger dicks than human men could possibly offer.
It’s such a weird preoccupation, and it seems like it’s got to be deeper than just a cultural thing.


It’s gotten the point where one must dig into every accusation of “antisemitism” to see if there’s really bigotry or if someone just pissed off the Zionists.
If one must find out more every time one hears a word, that word’s utility is gone.
Painesville is a real place


So on one end of the bridge, you’d have the Lincoln Memorial. And at the other, you’d have gilded Temu Arc de Triomphe knockoff.
It wouldn’t be possible to visit Arlington National Cemetery without thinking of our Dear Leader.
Maybe we deserve it.
This is going to wind up granting AI agents a piecemeal, half-assed, legal-fiction version of “personhood,” like corporations have. The AIs will wind up with freedoms like: They can spend all the money they want, that’s “free speech.”
And the fleshy unfortunates among us still won’t have a right to a living wage, to medical care, etc.
