One of the things that's very difficult to really take to heart about MAGA conservatives is that you can't get them on hypocrisy about their children because they really don't give a fuck about their kids
Everyone who posts this should note that Megyn Kelly has a 14-year-old daughter. Do not let her off the hook on this.
This was always where this was headed.

This is actually a pretty perfect encapsulation of the abject media failure that got us here: a prolific sexual predator who had close connections to the country's most powerful people is "a guy" and a two-time president is just "somebody" so the things they said about each other aren't newsworthy.
The emails that you’re seeing now are news in themselves, but that’s because of how they’re coming out—a congressional committee released them—& the context in which they’re being viewed. A guy emailing a reporter talking about old girlfriends or saying someone is “dirty” is not a whole news story.

I've been seeing this headline floating around. To be clear:
1) This is "No. 1" on a miniscule chart, The "Country Digital Song Sales" chart, as in people actually paying money to download country songs which is a tiny amount of people
2) The actual consumers are almost certainly fake

Afrikaren Musk being decreed into a trillionaire by his paid minions is about as serious as when my mum told me I was the most beautiful baby she'd ever seen.
Except she's never said that, she thinks another baby is the most beautiful, making her more rigorous and objective than Tesla's investors.

Similar to the Nazi group chat semi-apology responses, I think it is remarkable that the “Groyper” war is being framed pretty exclusively in terms of antisemitism, while the racism is unremarkable for them.

Elected Democrats spending more time today praising Dick Cheney than Zohran Mamdani is a great case study in abject fucking moral failure.

El próximo año se cumplen 10 desde que Bob Dylan ganó el Nobel de Literatura. El 2026 deberian repetir lo de dárselo a un cantautor, pero Hispano o Luso parlante. Propongo la Triple S (Serrat, Sabina, Silvio) o Chico Buarque.

If I were running the DNC, there would be Democratic Party sponsored food relief banks across the country right now that specifically welcomed anyone regardless of party affiliation.
Along with the food, there could be voter registration and links to runforsomething.net

Look, it's a team effort. But between 1994 and 2024, I didn't live in Toronto. And what happens after exactly 6 months and a couple weeks of me living in Toronto? That's right, the Blue Jays go to the World Series. #CorrelationISCausation.

Stealing paintings from a museum? Also absolutely an art form if done correctly. It requires integration of multiple skills, creativity and, funnily enough, proficiency in tech and IT stuff to hack sensors and alarm devices.

If you think that professors exist as repositories of knowledge that students ask for answers, you’re missing the entire point of a college education.
We’re here to teach students how to do research, how to analyze and argue, how to think for themselves — how to find the answers on their own.

This is why the inflatable costumes works so well -- it works the same way calling them "weird" or "creepy" did. It disrupts their narrative, and makes them seem pathetic rather than cool-and-cruel.
