I was in the middle of trying and failing to make a joke and a quickie google showed me I was wasting my time.

As a mom of four kids , I personally love it. I hope they make a tv show, comics and what not. There are too many bad media for kids these days, we need more of this

Even putting the Catholic aspect aside I can’t be the only one who feels like the vibe especially in the English speaking world these days is just way too negative and angry all the time? And I mean about literally anything? I couldn’t imagine how hard it must be being a child growing up in the world today because everything is so bland, doom and unoriginal

I welcome more upbeat and positive vibes

Look, I’ve used a graph so I’ve already won this argument - leftie. But reply back if you want and dig your own grave deeper and deeper because I have ~10 more graphs on this topic.

I can already hear reddit.

Look, Harrison is kinda weird. It’s roughly the size of Liechtenstein so it’s really tiny and it’s today old. But it was a historical region that happened to be divided. It spanned most of two counties one of which happened to be in Vermont and the other in New Hampshire. They speak English there and to be blunt - they’re mostly white. So Biden made it a state with the extraordinary official act powers given to the Office of the Presidency by the Supreme Court

Aaron Sorkin’s Harrison is going to be a 12 part HBO Max miniseries. There’s more. It’s a natural that an unincorporated community in new state gets to vote first. I’m all in favor of Harrison’s Whitey’s Knob being the first place in the nation to vote in 2026 because it was placed officially in the ET+1 time zone. This will help the dems not only in that year but in 2028 which is - duh, the most important election of our lifetime. The Hollywood buzz is that musical Whitey’s Knob by Lin-Manuel Miranda is indeed going forward. All of this stuff shows the power of American democracy.

But ya gotta cool your jets on your wish list. Biden can’t just do anything he wants via his official acts power. The situation in Puerto Rico is complicated and nuanced. They got a different culture there and they speak Spanish. It’s been a country/state territory thing for a very long time so it’s unrealistic for Biden to…

Ninja edit. I entirely forgot the song lyrics are lonely and plaintive. Oops. Never mind that.

That’s exactly them at Bluesky right now.

Liberals will say it’s no biggie. Their nonsense argument will be that liberal billionaires should start buying newspapers.

this will hurt the journalists in wapo that have been posting genocide denial stories in the paper for months

I think their jobs are secure. If cutbacks are needed - the paper will fire the people least important and/or who make the least amount of money.

Mr. Bezos sir - you are canceled.

Yesterday @apocalypticanow.bsky.social used the word “decimate” to describe what Bezos had done to his newspaper and that prediction is now made real and literal.

I didn’t put this in the dunk tank because I assume Bezos doesn’t care at all. He uses the paper to advertise Prime etc. His bigger toy cost him twice as much - his $500m yacht. Also - he’s clearly betting on a Trump win and he’ll recoup any tiny WaPo losses via federal government business that comes his way.

It’s fun to stay at the Y-M-C-A

It’s fun not to pay Trump rally bills

Serious question - how in any logical fashion does this make any sense?

I’m American but I’m not understanding this. Medicaid is federal money so in other words it’s basically free money for the state. I know the republicans love nonsense like owning the libs and “reducing the dependency on the government” but is there some kind of cogent argument here even in theory?

What a great article - it’s to the point.

They uncovered the hidden complex - which they have called Valeriana - using Lidar, a type of laser survey that maps structures buried under vegetation.

They believe it is second in density only to Calakmul, thought to be the largest Maya site in ancient Latin America.

The team discovered three sites in total, in a survey area the size of Scotland’s capital Edinburgh, “by accident” when one archaeologist browsed data on the internet.

“I was on something like page 16 of Google search and found a laser survey done by a Mexican organisation for environmental monitoring,” explains Luke Auld-Thomas, a PhD student at Tulane university in the US.

Lidar needs to appear an horror movie. Something like this - For a thousand years evil was left undisturbed…

OP - you might want to change the link - it probably has tracking. Here’s the direct link…

They just can’t help themselves. They’re supposed to say extremist hateful things after voting is over.

other deranged fascist

I don’t know a thing about r/ShitHexbearSays but whoever Malding is - they are a uber-pro-Israel kook. And they must think of themselves as The King (or Queen) of Online Wit. In real life I wouldn’t be able to stop laughing if somebody tried to cut me to ribbons with a “stool sample” dis to my face. Who does that???

I actually have lowerback pain now. I feel ancient. I’m reminded of this…

Old age isn’t so bad when you consider the alternative.

In other news - what a strange troll. They replied to me with this…

Why are you posting the comments your doctor made while looking at your stool sample?

What the heck. Do you have a long list of reddit ownage quips that you’re copy and pasting at random? You are a trip.

Hey are you the ancient fuck?

Hey now. I’m not that old. Have you been taking notes on us? That’s fucking sad.

I borrowed this book from my neighbor…

In “The Heat Will Kill You First,” Jeff Goodell documents the lethal effects of rising temperatures and argues that we need to take hot weather a lot more seriously.

I managed to get all the way to page 12.

Are we gonna have to live in the sewers or something

My hunch is that the Israelis will spend some of every day (if not all) underground because temperatures above ground (aka in ordinary life) will be too hot for a normal existence. This will break their brains even more. After all - they can’t genocide the climate. They can’t even make it suffer.

Climate change in the Middle East and North Africa

The study further projects that heatwaves will occur for 80 days of the year by 2050 and 118 days of the year by 2100. Considering also increased sandstorms associated with longer drought periods, even a 2 degree temperature rise would make large parts of the region uninhabitable and force people to migrate. Limiting temperature rise to 1.5 degrees, will significantly reduce risks for the region.

We will go past 1.5 degrees centigrade. It’s just a matter of when. 10 or 20 years from now? And 1.5 was supposed to be the maximum acceptable rise by 2100. What a joke.
