If you thought at some point in your life, "I wish we could legalize death pools," please see yourself out of existence.
What once would have been a pitch in a writers’ room for tastelessly edgy joke in a comedic satire of a deranged country full of greedy sociopaths is now our reality.
seems like a politician could make hay promising to ban this shit where are they?

BREAKING: The New Mexico Department of Justice has sued Acting AG Todd Blanche and the DOJ, requesting the court for access to unredacted Epstein-related investigative files that the DOJ has been withholding.
A 60 Minutes probe into Epstein's banking, with Wyden already interviewed, vanished right after Sharyn Alfonsi got pushed out under Bari Weiss. Same editor who stalled the CECOT migrant story until Stephen Miller got a say. CBS keeps calling it timing. Sure looks like a pattern.
60 Minutes Epstein Banking Story Vanished After CBS Ousted Sharyn Alfonsi, Dem Senator Reveals
Wyden revealed he was interviewed for the show in a Senate report alleging the country's largest banks turned “a blind eye” to Epstein's financial activity

So get this. There are 33,000 properties owned by people in NYC that is NOT their primary residence. Assuming that each of those units is owned by a single person, (which isn't even true) and divide that by the population of NYC... 1/2
When does the nightmare stop? I don't want Trump games. No one wants to play a child beauty pageant simulator.
EA officially now owned by the Trump family, Kingdom of Saudi Arabia, and a cadre of private equity ghouls. Real race to the bottom in gaming these days
Spooky shit
The Soviet animated version is set on Dec 31 2026, but it is also very much worth experiencing (thank you to @rblemberg.bsky.social who showed it to me!) - www.youtube.com/watch?v=4oxP... Possibly even more terrifying than the original story.
Thankfully, lying is the #1 skill of a cop.
New: Police are being told to hide the fact that they're using Flock to pull people over and arrest them in both encounters with citizens but ALSO in their official police reports: www.404media.co/do-not-menti...
In their lawsuit, they literally claim Capital One closed the accounts for the Trump’s because of the bank's "woke beliefs." Spoilers: It was because of the money laundering.
OVER Three HUNDRED accounts for laundering money... #jailtrump #endthegop
Fun fact: No missiles for U.S. means no defenses for Israel. It's FAFO time!
Now I have to pay to suck face?!? That sucks, and not in the way I prefer!
“Generations of us have enjoyed driving out to this secluded little perch for sucking face, and now this giant corporation wants to make it some sort of growth investment,” said longtime Fredericktown resident Diane Moseley
*moments later* --- She had one job. Lie to cover Trump's ineptitude and prosecute innocent people in service of that lie. Oh, well!

If feeding hungry people is a "socialist trap," what do we call it when we give billions in weapons, money, and aid to a foreign nation committing the world's first live-streamed genocide so they can continue to do proxy strikes on our behalf? Status quo?
Opinion: Mamdani's idea may sound appealing, but it's NYC taxpayers who will take the hit, subsidizing discounts they may never even use.
I'm gonna say this while it's still my 1st Amendment right to do so, but we could save Trillions as a species by replacing these super yachts with super guillotines that are massive luxury guillotines with a smaller guillotine inside the larger guillotine. Let 'em go out with style.
While millions face cuts, superyacht sales are somehow exploding
Heading into midterm season, voters are experiencing Trump’s economic illiteracy first hand, even as Trump, embarrassingly, keeps blaming Biden. If he hadn’t elevated personal loyalty over professiona...

My town this week
Every single second, the world hands $6,000 to the fossil fuel industry in subsidies. That’s $5 TRILLION every year. Renewables? Barely a fraction of that. We are literally paying to cook our own planet. When does this madness stop? 🌍💸 #ClimateCrisis #FossilFuels
