Basically all US policy is at this point about indulging Trump’s irrational obsessions, petty grudges, and corrupt grifts, and then taking secondary and tertiary measures to mask the consequences of those policies.

lol, great, so we're now subsidizing Argentine ranchers at the expense of American ranchers. Seems politically sustainable, no questions from me.

CIAsandman on Twitter writes: "Leftist friend got called “fuckin lib” by a foid at a bar last night. Their cultural grip is slipping. It’s cringe and gay to even be associated with anything left of center."

On January 21, 2025, CIAsandman tweets: "White boy fuel." There's a photo showing him holding a half-eaten piece of bread a bottle of water. On his wrist is a white Swatch watch.

An eBay auction for the Swatch says: 1996 Vintage Swatch Watch TUTTI FRUTTI GW109 Working Swatch Watches Women

Everyone who carefully constructed obfuscations in politics over the last hundred years must feel like a real dummy. Actually you can call it The Department of Murder. You can post a video of yourself dumping diarrhea on the public. You can go on TV and say "I am stealing from you lol"

I have been traveling and today I present to you...the thing I saw in the Frankfurt airport.

Is it efficient? Undeniably. Does it probably work better than the normal way? Oh certainly. Produce less of a mess? Probably?

But the existence of Condiment Udders gives me a deep, aghast disquiet.

A hotdog and pretzel stand with large hanging bottles of mustard, ketchup, and mayonnaise. The bottoms contain squeeze tubes to dispense the condiments.

21% of households in RURAL Georgia receive SNAP assistance (that’s 5% above the national average)

So one in five conservative homes will become food insecure, in addition to losing healthcare and elder facilities. Can their bootstraps handle their political ideology? We gon find out I guess

Menswear guy has spies everywhere. Doesn’t matter if you’re showing collar gap in the Twin Cities, being rude to service workers in Charlotte, or wearing a raggedy white t-shirt to eat at an expensive place in Malibu, he *will* know about it and burn you if you force his hand.

i don't get it. omen sushi in nyc is cheaper than nobu in malibu, where you dined last year without your wife

Michael Rapaport tweets: "How’s a so-called “working class” mayoral candidate like Zohran Mamdani eating at OMEN SUSHI tonight — one of the priciest joints in NYC? 🍣💰
This clown lives in a rent-stabilized apartment in Queens but dines like a diplomat on a Qatar-funded per diem.
Who’s paying for that toro, “Zoron the Moron”?"

There are two photos of Zohran Mamdani and his wife eating at a restaurant.

Michael Rapaport eating outside of a restaurant. There are some white canopy umbrellas around him and a tree in the background. Also the ocean and some fence.

Two photos. The first shows the outside of Nobu in Malibu. The second shows the area where Michael sat. There is the same tree, ocean, white canopy umbrellas, and fence.

The menu for Nobu in Malibu shows prices around $60. The menu for Omen Sushi in NYC shows prices around $35.

I’m skeptical that a court can or will do this, but i think it has to be tried, because the GOP has descended to full lawlessness, and we don’t have any kind of government if the majority party can just refuse to recognize others.

NEW: The State of Arizona sues the House of Representatives, demanding that Speaker Mike Johnson seat Adelita Grijalva or that someone else be allowed to swear her in. storage.courtlistener.com/recap/gov.us...

PRAYER FOR RELIEF
Because there is no dispute as to Ms. Grijalva's election or qualifications, the Court should:
A. Issue a declaratory judgment stating that Ms. Grijalva shall be deemed a Member of the House of Representatives once she has taken the oath prescribed by law, see 5 U.S.C. § 3331;
B.
Issue a declaratory judgment stating that if Speaker Johnson has not administered
the oath, the oath may be administered to Ms. Grijalva by any person authorized by law to administer oaths under the law of the United States, the District of Columbia, or the State of
Arizona; and
C. Award other relief as the Court deems just and proper.
Dated: October 21, 2025
Respectfully submitted,

I have to mention that Steven pinker's ethology class syllabus leaked. It's like it was written by 4chan. Gone are any mentions of foraging theory, migration, even the concept of learned behaviors. Every lesson was a extremely esoteric bit of ethology that could be used to justify racism or sexism
