So people don't want stuff behind a paywall (I get it!) but they also want to use ad blockers everywhere. How, exactly, do you expect the people writing the stuff you want to read to get paid? How does that work, in your mind? How is it sustainable, exactly? I'm just not sure, here.

Seems simple: places I like can show me an ad to pay the bills, a site owned by google can suck my ass and get ad blocked.
Are the House Democrats so disorganized the leadership told its members not to vote in favor of impeachment proceedings without knowing this was coming out the next fucking day?
BREAKING: House Democrats release more photos from Jeffrey Epstein's estate, featuring pictures of President Trump, Bill Clinton and other prominent figures.

“Trump is the most nakedly corrupt President this country has ever seen but we also need years of investigations to impeach him so is that something you really want us to do?” - The Democrat Party

Kristi Noem has attacked Sister Norma Pimentel, a leader of Catholic Charities serving immigrants in the Texas Rio Grande Valley, after she spoke out bravely criticizing DHS deportation projects, echoing the words of Pope Leo. www.catholicnewsagency.com/news/268391/...
Yes, a much better outcome would have been to keep the government shut down indefinitely while planes fell out of the sky and the economy began to crash, that certainly is a simply scenario that it would be easy to manage

Really funny to post this, see the same type of Democrat vote against an impeachment, then less then a day later be like, “OMG guys, Trump is bad!”
This should be the biggest story in the country right now. The sitting US President was extorting state lawmakers from his own party by threatening to withhold public money if they didn’t gerrymander for him.
I don’t know how else to say it…

How fun to pair this “should be the biggest story in the country” with the ”Democrats won’t vote for Impeachment“ one.
I wouldn’t put it at a high percentage simply because there wasn’t enough of them, but I wonder how many “clinton-to-mccain“ voters are also shouting about “lesser of two evils”?

One of my favorite moments in the Phillies World Series run was Matt Stairs hitting a ball into fucking orbit, and you know what? Joe Buck’s call on it was good! Hated him a bit less after he admitted he went overboard on Randy Moss’s fake mooning.
We've never had a father and son in the broadcasters' wing of the Hall of Fame ... until now
Congratulations to Joe Buck, just announced as the winner of the 2026 Ford Frick Award
His father, Jack Buck, won in 1987. What an amazing family legacy the Bucks will be celebrating in Cooperstown in July

Significant statement from Jeffries and House Democratic leaders saying they will vote “present” on the motion to table Al Green’s resolution to impeach President Trump. They say they’re “laser-focused on fighting to lower the high cost of living” plus on health care and corruption.

More Democrats will have voted to censure Al Green than will have joined him to impeach Trump.
It’s the same with idiots who talk about theft causing stores to close. You can show them articles about how the stores admitted to lying, but nope, they saw some shoplifting happen once in front of them, so the exaggerations the stores admit were lies must be true.
I think this is a widespread phenomenon. In a bunch of European countries, the US, and perhaps elsewhere, lots of people who live near-ish cities are scaring themselves silly on Facebook about how dangerous their nearby urban area is, in a way that is impervious to any empirical evidence.

I’ve always said the thing holding me back from winning at gambling was the taxes I’d have to pay. Thank you Trump for opening up this incentive to gamble, we needed one!
US President Donald Trump has said he may eliminate tax on gambling winnings

“In Trump’s transactional and corrupt approach to governance, it certainly helps that Paramount’s bid for Warner Bros directly involves Jared Kushner and the three Arab petrostates that have struck lucrative business deals with the Trump Organization” — my latest for @theguardian.com
We, as Americans, are powerless to not buy trash items or prevent anyone from selling us anything, so it’s China’s fault that they don’t care about profiting off of how shitty we are.
New! We worked with the Public Interest Research Group to test a bunch of LLM-driven toys ahead of the Christmas. That sexual talking teddy bear wasn't a one-off; it turns out disturbing behavior is deeply built into these toys across the board.
