The claim “RFK Jr. does not fuck chickens” is not an evidence-based claim because studies have not ruled out the possibility that RFK Jr. fucks chickens.

KEY POINTS • The claim 'vaccines do not cause autism’ is not an evidence-based claim because studies have not ruled out the possibility that infant vaccines cause autism.

Fell into a rabbit hole of youtube of people losing their shit in airplanes, and the three most represented airlines so far: 1) Spirit (mostly Florida airports) 2) Southwest (Nashville seems to be a hotspot) 3) American (DFW - which is understandable)

There you have it. The Republican platform for 2026: Dems are communists & the only reason they’ve won elections is because China rigged them. Hopefully you won’t notice that the economy sucks & you are paying more for rent/gas/groceries because Republicans started another war.

This speech is quite literally an impeachable offense. The President is trying to undermine faith in US elections and to delegitimize the elections of public officials.

Folks, I am a positive person who is happy in my life and who tries to see people’s good side wherever possible and I cannot explain to you how much I fucking hate JKR’s loathsome guts.

I take Jared's point but it's pretty easy to make effective reactionary genre movies. There were dozens released every year in the '80s and '90s, and some of them were decently good and/or widely seen. Craig Zahler makes them today. These guys are just unpleasant nerds who are bad at everything.

The problem is that “I am often scared and angry about social change” does not inherently lend itself to interesting art. You can be as technically skilled as the greats, but art with nothing interesting to say is just a commodity.

Matt Walsh post on X: “Imagine if conservatives, rather than pathetically crawling around on the ground to lap up discarded pop culture crumbs, actually went out and advanced their own creative and artistic vision. Imagine if we used an event like this to actually elevate our own artists and make them famous. What a crazy thought.”
