No wonder Xi has that wtf look on his face. He didn't know it was his week to watch our toddler.
Every time you feel an ounce of sympathy for a Trump supporter they open their mouths and its gone.
As if I couldn’t hate the orange felon more than I already do, over 60 trees which include historic Cherry Blossom trees were quietly cut down recently in Washington DC without court approval. I’ll never forgive anyone who supports this monstrous hateful destructive criminal.
They were so beautiful. Japan famously gave thousands of cherry trees to the U.S. in 1912 (and earlier shipments around 1910) as a symbol of friendship, which grew into Washington's iconic spring landscape. Why doesn’t anyone STOP him!!!

"I don’t know about you, but Trump’s intervention in the World Cup has ruined the game for me," writes @rbreich.bsky.social. "How can the fine athletes representing us rejoice in a victory when the president of the United States has used his political power to seek to change a referee’s call?"

We try to teach our children to follow the rules. Now an American president has chosen the opposite tack

I have thoroughly enjoyed the World Cup. I have loved cheering for the US team. Then that fucker intervened. Yes, the red card was excessive, but I would rather lose because of it than win because Imbecile called FIFA. The joy is gone. Now we’re the bad guys. He destroys everything.

Why are we having a debate about air conditioning when we could be getting on with using solar power to make all the air conditioning work

Tonight’s #FridayLimericks watch the full Trump administration pattern play out in a reflecting pool nutshell. Trump is up to his usual tricks With his hubris-incompetence mix. The reflecting pool plot Shows us all that he’s got: An admin of dumb, arrogant pricks.
Welp, Stephen Miller happens to LOVE the new Lincoln Memorial Reflecting Pool.
It really hurts how true this is. It used to be a resource. And a very good resource at that. There had never been anything remotely like it in our lifetime. An endless virtual encyclopedia Britannica full of expertise you hadn’t known existed. And then people started lying.
"I can't properly describe to anyone under the age of 30 just how cool the Internet was before Amazon. Gooale, Meta, and Apple turned it all into a walled carden of garbage and commerce."
Sorry to hear about Jeff Bezos's rocket exploding prematurely. A good technique to prevent that from happening is to try thinking about something you find totally unarousing or even repulsive, like giving workers a living wage or paying a fair share of taxes.
Thank you for your courage to publicly address abusive language.
Regret to inform everyone that Peter Magyar beat the world’s smartest illiberal populist in large measure by working incredibly hard for 2 straight years, meaning the rest of us are just going to have to get off our asses and do shit rather than just complaining.
This guy says what I've been trying to say, only he's better at laying it out. I know Hegseth profited *right before* things went sideways.
