too cool for school

Reports of Scots drinking the bars of Boston dry which is colloquially assumed to mean Scots drink more than Americans. I propose two alternative reasonings: 1. The Boston bars simply were not ready for any sporting event, let alone the World Cup 2. Scots finally have access to decent beer

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.

All the liberals and redditors who were bashing Trump for dodging the draft are about to find out that dodging the draft is actually the only good thing Trump's ever done

I'm already sick of "It's all a distraction from Epstein" replies. This regime is killing innocent people because our leaders are all power-hungry tyrants and war profiteers. When you say it's "just a distraction" you minimize the gravity of what's happening and the lives lost.

I don't really see enough people talking about it but the ultimate purpose of these massive data centers  isn't for generative AI (but it certainly does help). Their main goal is cloud computing

protestors have painted what appears to be a tunnel on the side of the mountain, causing ICE agents to run into the mountain at full speed. disgusting.

Cripes a’mighty people, Steven Miller is not staging a militarized ethnic cleansing and sending the border cops to murder people in the street to distract from the Epstein files. He’s doing it because he and Trump (and Vance and Homan and Noem etc) really really want to.

I wish people were as horrified about immigrants being kidnapped and killed in detention centers as they are about this shooting at the same time I am very glad there is finally some larger momentum building against this and I hope it sustains.

People saying "I'm not suicidal" when talking about Epstein is the same as boomers passing around a copypasta to tell Facebook it doesn't have permission to take their data. Like, brother, they're gonna do it anyway

School shootings almost every day with child deaths are met with thoughts and prayers. A Minnesota lawmaker, her husband, and their dog are shot in their home and it's radio silence. One pro-gun death, anti-empathy podcaster gets shot and it's all hands on deck. Get fucked. Rest in piss.

no offends if this is you but if you're thinking "this is going to make the right do fascism" they're already there. they blew up a boat with 11 people on it for being immigrants. they're kidnapping US citizens and trying to rendition them to Uganda. do you think we're on a trajectory to peace
