A screengrab from a video of a very cute blonde corgi looking off its porch and making those muted “ufff” sounds that aren’t quite barks. A caption reads “BOOFING (verb) used as a warm-up when things are looking suspicious”.

This is funny to me bc boofing is also the name for ingesting drugs rectally.

when u and ur friends pass around the same $20 for rent and transition funds, the joke is how powerless u are

when tech companies pass around the same $100 billion the joke is that they hoover up enough capital to cause great depression 2

i love round tripping

cassie squeakypenis @sandy.meangirls.online · 29m

well, the case is really “let’s all pass this same $100 billion around, then all our stocks will go up” which always ends well historically

ICE arrested comedian Robby Roadsteamer for singing a parody of Rod Stewart’s “Do Ya Think I’m Sexy” in a Jeffrey Epstein the Giraffe costume outside their facility.

He sings “If you hate brown people / and you are a Nazi” and ICE thugs grab him and drag him into detention. No violence—just speech.

Let me slide in here before this goes left lol my wife is working on her Masters. I am her biggest supporter and cheerleader. She deserves to make as much as her heart desires.

i'd posit the point that it doesn't matter to those that hold institutional power or are already mostly surrounded by like-minded people.

Olivia's in shock because she's not fully in the latter camp yet.

We don't have to defeat Trump. We have to defeat the systems that nurtured, created, and empowered Trump.

Many of those systems are built around the comfort of white people, cis people, and abled people, at the expense of everyone else.

I'm about to post something that will probably get me in trouble and then walk away. Men complain that they don't "feel like men" when a woman makes more than them. But being a man is not about what you get, but what you DO. Do something!

Solomon @solomonmissouri.bsky.social · 2h

and i'll do you one better ... men become uncomfortable when their partners make more than they do because they believe that their partners will financially and emotionally manipulate them ....

as they .... manipulate their partners.

The president freely admits he's using your tax money to repress you and interfere with your free choice of representatives. He's looking into the camera and telling you he's a tyrant bsky.app/profile/atru...

Trump and Bessent clarify that they will only help out Argentina as long as Milei is in power. Trump adds that the same thing goes with NYC, where the White House will hold up funds if Mamdani wins.

My Xbox Ally and Xbox Ally X review.

The top phrases running through my mind while testing it:

"Someone's getting fired for greenlighting this launch"

"This is not an Xbox"

"If this is the future of Xbox, Xbox is screwed."

Went with the middle.

This is not an Xbox

Microsoft’s first “Xbox” handhelds are shipping not fully baked.

i love when they talk like this, because they're allergic to reading. 350 pages? can't wait to see how they mess this up.

"I have been reliably informed that the Wallet Inspector has almost completed his work and is prepared to announce his findings."

Rep Luna tweet:

My office just received word from the @RusEmbUSA
that the ambassador from Russia to the United States will be hand delivering the @GovernmentRF
’s findings on who assassinated JFK to my office.

This is a 350 page document.

We will be uploading these documents as soon as we receive them working with @jeffersonmorley
to ensure that the American people have direct access to them immediately.

It is important to note that Congress attempted to obtain these files in the 90’s and was denied. We have been given access to them now for the first time in history.

Here's a T. Rex bored to death trying to bite their own tail. My partner asked me to animate it in stop motion, after she watched a video about the very important topic of "could T. Rex chew its own tail like a dog". The puppet is still a work in progress 🦖

my latest investigation for @consumerreports.org is based on months of reporting and 60+ lab tests of leading protein supplements

we found that most protein powders and shakes have more lead in one serving than our experts say is safe to have in a day (🧵)

Matt Novak @paleofuture.bsky.social · 10h

I just checked and this is real. It's on Border Patrol's official Instagram (I don't see it on Facebook) and is being celebrated by Nazis on Twitter, as you can see in the screenshot.

The clip is just 13 seconds long too, so it's a very intentional thing. We've got a Nazi government.

Twitter account: Uncensored @HmanQuotes1945: Official border patrol Facebook page is posting with the banned lyrics of Michael Jackson's song.
