We're long overdue for something to collapse America's cultural hegemony and "say mean things about God's Precious Baby Trump we'll make you sorry if you ever come here" sure seems like it might do the trick.

I don't want to be a "I'm not surprised" guy but covid made it clear that a substantial part of the population wants the freedom to do whatever they want even if it kills them and/or others
strangers are fighting to the death in my menchies over this pretty innocuous take and slinging devastating counterarguments like “what if I had to run away from a murderer” and “I like speeding”
one of my longstanding takes is that car manufacturers should be forced to install mandatory speed limiters in every new vehicle and people react to that like I'm advocating to strip them of their right to free speech

There's the common adage of "zombie media comes up with new names for zombies because it hates zombies, mecha media comes up with new names for mecha because it loves mecha" but there's the weird case of werewolf media, which has a tendency to be one or the other

I saw a chart about commitment to AI, and unsurprisingly the US was far in the lead, and it really drove home an key emotion driving the grift.

The *idea* of the U.S. as number one is so powerful that we have effectively made up a category we can be number one in, and it MUST BE TRUE.

It's our final heist movie of the year, and it's time to flip the script a little. A union man in immediate postwar Italy is assigned a job putting up posters. The pay is enough to finally give his fa...

Things we learn:

1. Bovino's existence is the result of chain migration, which MAGA wants to ban

2. His family arrived legally under an immigration law MAGA wants to repeal

3. His father killed a woman while driving drunk, a crime for which MAGA aims to deport immigrants

And much more. Read it.
Greg Bovino’s the star of Trump’s deportation show. We trace his roots.
As a boy, the Hollywood movie “The Border" set the course for his life. He couldn’t believe the Border Patrol agents in the movie were the bad guys. Now that he’s in charge of deportation efforts caus...

The absolute funniest thing about this is that the house pictured is legitimately an abandoned meth lab, as someone in Derek’s replies discovered (see thread for proof)
If you want to do something like this, why not buy a $150k home in a small town in Italy, France, Spain, or Mexico, instead of having nine people share one bathroom after they eat at a restaurant called "Stinky's?"

Bovino, the man overseeing mass deportations, publicly declared that we must all have our papers on us, at all times, or we could be stopped, harassed, kidnapped, and detained, as they did with the man in this case, who is a US citizen.

2. The evidence we can now see demolishes the core argument made by opponents of the Robinson-Patman Act. They claim not enforcing the law has led to lower prices. But this new material shows the opposite: Pepsi forced all grocers besides Walmart to raise their prices.

1. For at least 10 years, Pepsi has conspired with Walmart to force up grocery prices. That’s the shocking evidence made public today in an unsealed FTC lawsuit. The suit was abandoned in May by the Trump FTC just before it was to be un-redacted. We went to court to get it unsealed & won.

Maybe it "doesn't feel like Christmas anymore" because for the past 25 years culture warrior crybabies have been sucking all the fun out of it. Getting mad at Sbux cups and people for saying "happy holidays". And celebrating the holiday as statement rather than having good will towards man.

One of the things I'm acutely aware of is how likely comics frameworks that are run by a single dev can turn into abandonware; Keeping Time is on Toocheke for now, but what happens if that dev ever leaves it?

To give you a sense of how big a departure this year, the government doesn't do this for wanted criminals.
SCOOP: The Trump administration is providing the names of all travelers passing through U.S. airports to immigration officials in search of people with deportation orders, a substantial expansion of government efforts to draw on data to hunt down immigrants.

The University of Oklahoma has now put a second instructor on leave, this time for telling students they would be excused from class on Friday to attend a protest in support of trans graduate student instructor Mel Curth after *she* was unfairly put on leave.

Yeah, that'll fucking fix it, guys.

If the rest of the world treats the U.S. like we treated Germany after WWII it will be entirely deserved

Unless the citizens can prove that they'll do better by hook or by crook.
