I'm not the first person to point this out and obviously the kidnapping of Nancy Guthrie is a horrible crime

But the dissonance of pretending like this masked kidnapping is a serious controversy and the countless ICE kidnappings by identical looking masked men aren't is gonna turn me into the joker

Trump nominated a legit white nationalist to a top post at the State Department. I asked him some basic questions about his belief in the “erasure of white culture”. Watch this embarrassing, fumbling answer. Like he has never before been asked to explain his views.

I’ve spent years of my life trying to explain to people that anti-trans conservatism naturally flows from their belief that children in the American nuclear family are not individuals with autonomy, but instead property of the parents and state, and this guy just… tweeted it out

By the way Sajam is right but fighting games will forever have the permanent debuff.

Chadwick Boseman and James van der Beek both died in their 40s of an illness that's treatable if a colonoscopy catches it but almost no insurer covers them for people under 45, this is what Engels meant by "social murder"

Will city leaders fight back?

Sources tell @maustermuhle.bsky.social that part of their hesitation could be coming from D.C.'s CFO Glen Lee, who is dealing with the ongoing tax-filing season.

Seems like that AOC's speech in Munich tomorrow will in some way address Palestine.

On a secondary note, it's very rare to see a US newspaper say outright that actual genocide scholars agree that Gaza has been subject to genocide.
