The principal guiding light of this administration is that every single societal advance in the last 60 years that has made life more livable was a mistake.

At every branch of every decision tree going "well what if we were evil, like a villain in a novel for small, slow children"
"guy who has never dug a ditch in his entire life but posts about the nobility of the proletariat" is like 60% of this website lmao
KFC announces their frontier-class model briefly escaped its sandbox and attempted to exfiltrate the 27 herbs and spices
Another performance management year done, that means we spent fifty hours in one-on-ones last year. Think of that, a whole work week of just you and me, discussing your disappointing performance.
The claim “RFK Jr. does not fuck chickens” is not an evidence-based claim because studies have not ruled out the possibility that RFK Jr. fucks chickens.
"How do you keep a legislature from abolishing itself" remains the most important constitutional question we haven't answered
the degree to which they want to destroy one of the jewels of the American republic—our exceptional research universities—is just gobsmacking

A year ago >100 died due to a lack of flood sirens in Kerr County, TX. Nearby counties made the upgrades. When Kerr got $10m during Covid, constituents wanted to return it to the “communist” Biden admin. Instead, local officials spent it on new radios for the cops. www.nbcdfw.com/news/local/t...
Here's what happened in Kerr County meeting now under flood scrutiny
Kerr County once debated federal aid, funds later used to respond to 2025 flooding.

Faine Greenwood@faineg.bsky.social · 2mo agoat least in my experience, sometimes lifelong denizens of blue cities genuinely don’t fully grasp just how insane, depraved, and dangerous many American GOP voters in red areas have become. Meanwhile, sane people originally from those GOP-dominated areas viscerally grasp this.
this guy wants as many americans as possible to die of preventable diseases. he views that as preferable to vaccines or long term medication. makes us “stronger”
Gillian Branstetter@gbbranstetter.bsky.social · 2mo agoRFK Jr. asked the National Institute of Health to dedicate $5 billion (!) to finding a link between vaccines and autism. "That would have dedicated more than a tenth of the NIH’s annual budget to investigating a hypothesis already refuted by scientists worldwide."
Racism aside, there is nothing that the Chinese Communist Party wants more than for America to continue to be run by stupid hicks like this woman whose careers are dedicated to flushing every competitive advantage we have down the toilet.
Matt Novak@paleofuture.bsky.social · 2mo agoMarsha Blackburn's new ad is so racist that it makes me wonder if mainstream Republicans could have gotten away with something like this back in the 1980s or 90s.
Happy Independence Day (in a liberal way)! I love watching this show because you can feel the explosions on the water. Austin has its perks
Between this and the French with the sign on the Eiffel Tower, good reminder these things are bigger than the current admin and moment
Tibor M. Kalman@kalmantibs.bsky.social · 2mo agoBeautiful gesture from President Volodymyr Zelenskyy, illuminating the Mother Ukraine monument in Kyiv in Stars & Stripes of the American flag.

Absolutely insane that Cape Verde — a country of 500,000 — played Spain, Uruguay and Argentina…and lost to none of them in regulation. Easily one of the greatest performances in World Cup history.
The Supreme Court Gives Donald Trump Full Control Over the Executive Branch, Except the Part of It that Impacts Their Retirement Portfolios
A cartoonist named Daniel "Des" Rolando Sanchez Estrada was tried as a terrorist and sentenced to 30 years in prison for having anti-Trump comics in his car. Prosecutors connected him to a 2025 anti-ICE protest he didn't even attend because he was in the same book club as others who were.
Imagine Biden starting a war for no reason and then sending Hunter to settle it. I’m sure the media would have been very chill about that.
Kevin M. Kruse@kevinmkruse.bsky.social · 3mo agoNever mind that Vance got conned, the fact that the vice president saying he heard second-hand from the president's son-in-law and the president's real estate buddy that the strait was open is humiliating on its own.
Someone out there is gonna be so upset when you tell them: sorry the US can’t return to the gold standard because we had to give it all to Iran when we surrendered.
Mikhail Gorbaechev@mikhailgorbaechev.bsky.social · 3mo agoHonestly the lie is better, then they'll correct you and say "it's only half the gold in Fort Knox," a thing that won't help them.
