Dr. Fauci belongs in prison! We’d never inject unnatural chemicals like the COVID vaccine into our bodies!”
Oh. My. God. FOX host doesn’t know that pigeons lay eggs. So he thought they give birth like mammals? He was genuinely surprised when corrected.
Facebook must be listening to me but is getting it alllll wrong. Context matters.
Call me crazy, but maybe two men who fathered 19 children with 7 different women shouldn’t be lecturing us about family values.
When we have fires in the US, Canada sent help. When Canada has fires, Trump threatens them with tariffs. What an asshole.

My kids have measles, I lost my job, and a parasite that the CDC no longer monitors has given me explosive diarrhea. But at least now there’s no plaques honoring Black scientists at the Smithsonian.
Goes to one Knicks game and they lose for the literal first time in 2 months. Calls the head of FIFA to make him overturn a red card and then the US loses in one of the worst matches of the tournament. No one does it like him, it’s actually amazing
Watching the President watch himself on Fox News, very meta
Tater Tot does not enjoy fireworks. He is prepared for the worst. 🫡
I'll summarize this: Mamdani asked NYers to keep air conditioning at 78 degrees. A wave criticism hit online. A MSNBC broadcast pointed out the US Department of Energy recommends that 78 degree figure. Immediately after, the US Department of Energy deleted 6,000 web pages related to energy saving.
Of course it looks like a fucking Reichsadler. Why wouldn’t it 🤦♂️
Watching episode of ER from 2001. Dr. Chen & Dr. Carter are trying to diagnose an unconscious preschooler. Carter: “Could be measles.” Chen: “Measles? Have you ever seen measles?” Carter: “No, have you?” Chen: “Of course not, nobody’s seen measles.” So far backwards in such a short time.
Had to go into a Walmart for supplies (since it’s the only store near the town we are staying) and saw these abominations. JFC America is a broken country.
This Father's Day, I'm thinking about how my dad immigrated to the US after escaping the bloody Vietnam War, only to see his bloodline die out because his son stumbled into a menswear forum, where he spent the bulk of his adult life arguing about pants with teens named Pablo Thriftscobar.
“Iran's national soccer team honored schoolgirls killed in a strike on an elementary school before a friendly against Nigeria in Antalya, Türkiye, on March 27, 2026.“
This Iranian “deal” has made it clear to the entire planet that Donald Trump’s promotion of himself as the consummate negotiator was always a myth. He has shown his incompetence in a very public, high profile way.
Aaron Rupar@atrupar.com · 2mo agoKatie Britt: "President Trump is the best dealmaker that there is on the planet, so I trust his ability to get this done"
Mamdani: "Solidarity with a government that is committing genocide is a very different thing than a question of solidarity with people of a specific faith. I'm proud to be a mayor of the city with the largest Jewish population in this country."
The Knicks only lost one game in the last two months and it was the one Trump went to lmao
Here is a livestream of crews removing Trump’s name from the Kennedy Center. I’m pretending this is part of the 250 celebrations. www.youtube.com/live/aAhm880...

At the top, a bold white header inside a rounded navy box reads "THIS LOOKS LIKE...".
Below the header is a vertical list numbered 1 through 4 inside light blue circles:
• 1: Altered immune system cells. The text notes severe cases can change parent stem cells to create more inflammatory immune cells.
• 2: Viral reservoirs and fragments. The text explains that lingering viral components in Long COVID patients can amplify inflammation.
• 3: Immune dysregulation and chronic inflammation. The text defines dysregulation as some cells overworking while others are exhausted.
• 4: Triggered autoimmune conditions, blood clots, and latent viruses. The text states infections can trigger autoantibodies leading to disorders.

There are currently more bills attacking trans youth’s right to play sports across the U.S. than there are trans youth in school sports.
