We’ve decided that winning is the most important thing about sports. We used to think it was fairness, good sportsmanship, teamwork, skill building. Now we think “college tuition”.

No amateur sports program is worth sexually abusing children to prove their gender

Brown University has a widget that tracks the cost of the Iran war to American consumers (as contrasted to whatever the Pentagon is spending). Per-household cost now exceeds $600. iranwarcost.watson.brown.edu

i support [$democratic_candidate] for [$public_office] and believe that their politics is a perfect fit for [$state]. I would drag my [$genital] over [$harmful_object_or_substance] to vote for [$democratic_candidate] this fall.

I support the winner of the Michigan Democratic primary as the future senator from Michigan.

Hey folks- help a teacher!

@darthbluesky.bsky.social My wife is a teacher at a Mandarin immersion school in Oakland, CA, and has a class wish list up to help make her classroom amazing for her 5th graders this school year. Any chance we could get a boost? Thank you! www.amazon.com/hz/wishlist/...

If you still subscribe to the New York Times, you are putting my life in danger. That’s not hyperbole.

You suddenly get a narrator describing your life and there’s no way to turn it off - everyone can hear it. While shopping, at work, at home, with friends - the voice narrating your every move goes on. Who do you hope is the voice of this narrator?

Why is it I always hear about the fun stuff after it’s gone?

Trump on the CHIPS Act: "If you weren't transgender, you didn't qualify. So they'd get the money, they'd look all over for transgender people to run the company."

A good human.

Come to think of it, he forgot to include Jews too. No Jews or trans people in a conspiracy theory is like having Thanksgiving and leaving out the turkey AND the mashed potatoes.

Trump opened with trans people but I was disappointed that he left us out of the Grand Election Conspiracy. China, Obama, the Deep State…but no trans people.

He wants everything he has achieved to be named for him.

Hey! These people definitely don’t want you to broadcast their faces. I don’t think they would enjoy that at all.

Online commenter shuts down FBI agents.

@radiofreetom.bsky.social what in the world is there to say about that? That was the most insane thing ever said from the White House and also the speech delivered with the least conviction.

For a man describing a grand conspiracy, Trump sounded bored. And really unconvincing.

Qasim Rashid, Esq.@qasimrashid.com · 3w ago

In his unhinged speech tonight Trump claims an investigation found that people could “Change votes on a deep level that could not be detected even with a deep audit,” and,”There are 278,000 foreigners illegally registered to vote.” This is just making up ish. There’s zero evidence of this. 1/2

With so many conspirators they probably ran into each other like the Keystone Cops.

Michael Ian Black@michaelianblack.bsky.social · 3w ago

Wow. China, Barack Obama, the Deep State, and the state of California conspired to defeat Donald Trump in 2020 (when Trump was president) and then DIDN'T do it again in 2024. So DEVIOUS!!!

The President of the United States just said that two television networks are part of a plot to overthrow the Constitution. That’s it. That’s the news.

Let’s imagine Graham telling Carl Bernstein to go put on a suit. Now, imagine Bernstein’s response. This moment of zen was brought to you by memories of journalism.

@scarylawyerguy.bsky.social · 3w ago

If you left Twitter, you missed Ashley Parker recounting a story of Lindsey Graham calling her "icky" & demanding she buy a dress if she wanted to follow him around while covering the aftermath of a mass shooting. Yes, she thought this was an endearing story that put her (and him) in a good light🙄

I was more certain that most men weren’t rapist before so many of them were asserting their history of “almost” or “not really” raping.

Tal Lavin@swordsjew.bsky.social · 3w ago

i actually think most men havent broken in to a woman's house and raped her. i dont think most men have done that

I believe that only the left was empathetic enough to even respond to him. I notice he doesn’t seem to have heard from any women on the right.

"For half a century, I have been a Goldwater Republican and later became a Reaganite." Mate, you shouldn't be allowed near women at all.

Ask yourself, “ why are kids’ sports gendered at all?”. If trans girls have unfair advantages, how about rich kids? Kids with parents who are professional athletes? Should very tall girls be excluded? Make kids’ sports about teamwork and learning and having fun. Make sports for kids fun again.

“ in order to win you must become an uninformed bigoted ruining children’s lives”.

Alejandra Caraballo@esqueer.net · 3w ago

At this point, it's basically a monthly thing where the NY Times has some boomer Dem write a piece saying the party should abandon trans people.

They killed a man in front of his child. His child in Bluey pajamas. I don’t care that he was here legal but he was. I don’t care that he had committed no crime but he had committed no crime. I care that he was human and ICE killed him in our name. #abolishICE

We can give a Hollywood ending to this horror story if you all just vote. Vote Democrat. End the horror.

Write a horror story in 6 words. I’ll go first: Mike Lee’ll be Judiciary Committee chairman.

Or just read more books, says the librarian. Full of insults to the dead.

To be a historian is to speak ill of the dead and the rest of you should take more history classes and join us.

Deeply saddened to learn of the loss of my dear friend Satan, the Prince of Lies. Though we often disagreed about matters such as the appropriate role of torture in the afterlife, I will most remember how his quick wit and affable nature made our weekly golf outings a ritual. He will be missed.
