As a sideburns-positive individual myself, sporting some exceptionally cultivated, refined, elegant strips of man-fur upon my own visage...even I must ask: DAFUQ is Milei DOING?!

Come for their stupid right-wing polices that bankrupt their countries, stay for their inability to do hair.

As of February 24, 2022 (the date of Russia's full-scale invasion of Ukraine), there were 7,342 T-72B tanks in Russia's inherited Soviet stockpile. As of today, only 92 remain...

THAT'S how the war is going for Russia.

"Yeah, it's 𝘭𝘦𝘨𝘢𝘭 but it ain't 𝘢𝘩𝘶𝘯𝘥𝘦𝘳𝘱𝘦𝘳𝘴𝘴𝘦𝘯𝘵 legal. I mean, you can't just walk into a public space, unfurl a sign and start chantin' away. I mean, they want you to protest in your home or certain designated 𝘱𝘭𝘢𝘤𝘦𝘴."

#TheEpsteinFiles were hidden in Don's deep, dank, cavernous neck-vagina the entire time...

Not that it's virtuously motivated or anything, but I must give MTG props for sowing FOMO within the GOP. In these circles, one fear (e.g., Don's reprisal) is only assuaged by introducing another (e.g., being Johnny-come-lately to the new political landscape once Don is a puddle of demented lard).

That something apparently included (we still don't know what ELSE he secretly agreed to) a military installation in the reddest state in the Union: Idaho.

Why Idaho? Because Don calculated that the state with the highest percentage of MAGA residents would put up the least resistance. (3/3)

J.D. Vance Got Punched In The Face

Sean Selvig🗽🇺🇸🇨🇦🇬🇧🇪🇺🇺🇦🇬🇪🇮🇱🇹🇼🇭🇰🇰🇷 @seanselvig.bsky.social · 1d

Trouble is, in order to make that happen on such short notice (and in exchange for the plane, of course), he had to give the Qataris (the guys who bankroll Hamas) something for their trouble. (2/3)

OK, I think I have it figured out now. Don's been taking A LOT of Ls lately and desperately needed a W, so he tried to get one (preferably peace-related, for SOME reason) by forcing a brokered ceasefire in Gaza. (1/3)

If you too savored every microsecond of the terse conclusion to George Stephanopoulos' interview with JD Vance, do yourself a BIGASS favor and immediately read this concise, yet replete with literary flourish, commentary about the exchange by Rick Wilson. It's as hilarious as it is accurate.

Respectfully, of course.

‘I’ve definitely had spicier tamales,’ says Portland ICE protest frog that got pepper sprayed by federal agents

He took it like a champ, but I'm still looking into frog-themed MOPP suits.

The 24-year-old talks about the spray, the viral video and why he’s protesting.

This base is intended to train Qatari pilots, presumably in all aspects of flight except landing.

Graham Platner for Senate @grahamformaine.bsky.social · 3d

We have armed secret police kidnapping people off the street based on the color of their skin.

When we win: we will haul them before a Senate committee. The masks will come off. There will be consequences.

He didn't use her name this time, but he's clearly yelling at Pam again.

And THAT, ladies and gentlemen, is how you do it.

The worst part is, JD peaked in high school.
