RFK Jr said these words today on national television "There were ICUs that were empty all over the country including in New York at the height (of the pandemic)" hahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahaha You are a fucking idiot hahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahaha <sobs silently>
Still can’t over the fact that the president of the United States just told an entire state to pound sand after getting cyberattacked by a foreign adversary because they didn’t vote for him and it was treated like a Tuesday lol

Awful: “Nursing homes terminated hundreds of workers, including nursing assistants, dietary aides and housekeepers, industry and union leaders said. At airports including those in Fort Lauderdale, Florida, and Boston, contractors terminated scores of Haitian workers, including janitors…”
Airports, nursing homes and schools brace for disruption without Haitian workers
The Department of Homeland Security alerted employers this week that it had officially ended humanitarian protections for 350,000 Haitian immigrants, triggering mass layoffs.

Parents are fed up with friends and relatives giving their kids “personalized” AI-generated storybooks with characters resembling their kids. Apart from data privacy concerns, literacy experts say these garbled and convoluted narratives could be an impediment to learning how to read.

My Haitian friend was just fired from his job. "They said I don't have a legal status now." This is likely happening to hundreds of thousands of people across this country today. Sick.

Am I crazy? Should the chief of police in Seattle live in Seattle, or in Chicago? Mayor Katie Wilson surely has plenty of juice left, USE IT. Get rid of this carpetbagger, maybe? Reforming the whole department is surely impossible but the Chief? What the hell? FIRE HIM.
Would assume everyone knows it by now, but just in case "First the traitors, then the invaders" is an explicit reference to The Turner Diaries, where a white supremacist revolution overruns "The System" and kills all their enemy during the evocatively named "Day of the Rope".

X owner Elon Musk indicates he would prioritise political violence (assassination of pro-migration politicians is the common sense meaning) over violence against "invaders" (refugees, asylum seekers, maybe ethnic minorities generally) while endorsing call for violence (killing) against both groups
I stared at this headline a full minute trying to imagine a reasonable explanation. And then it turned out to be literally actually the picture that had first popped into my head
Gave him a fresh basketball to kill. Took 30 seconds for him to maul it to death. Hasn’t put it on his head yet though
I’ve finally captured it. My meathead of a dog purposefully pops basketballs immediately and then puts them on his head and runs around like a basketball head.
As a classic boomer child of the sixties, I spend an absurd amount of time mulling over the eternal musical questions of the best bands of the era, like Dino, Desi, and Billy OR Gary Lewis and the Playboys?
Gaslighting people about the literal text of the Constitution and hoping they'll get lucky and SCOTUS will agree in order to cheat and harm nonwhite people is like, this administration's whole deal. It is exactly what you'd expect from a man once sued by the feds for racist housing discrimination.
This story is indeed insane. They literally *discounted his correct answers* (on questions about the Constitution) so that a Trump supporting girl who wants to go to Hillsdale College could win $25K and be televised meeting Trump. So. Gross.
