Wait, J&J added cancer-causing benzene to Neutrogena and Aveeno sunscreens because their biggest profits come from their cancer drugs? Well OBVIOUSLY they were nostalgic for the good old days, when they put cancer-causing asbestos in baby powder for 52 years. You know how it goes, right? Jeez!

You know for a fact that Trump gave the FBI guys a box of crayons and told them to replace his name with Clinton's in every Epstein email, except for the ones that talk about Clinton being the second-worst pedo president in history

Retail stores be like "Our Black Friday sale starts the Saturday after Halloween, so if you see the one human cashier lady not dressed like a freshly vomited Christmas tree, report her to us, we'll cut off her food stamps and you'll receive a complimentary box of chocolate-covered pig dicks"

All the Epstein emails are powerful elites saying shit like “Hello my friend the pedophile, i need your advice as a pedophile, what do you think about this other pedophile? Pedophilic Regards, your Friend ;)” and instead of swinging from a gibbet most of them are still writing op-eds against leftism

Lol every right-wing black-hat troll in the solar system is trying to make "Trump isn't *technically* in the files" happen. Can we not be complete dumbasses for once and just make it not happen, that'd be great.

Not worried about getting interrogated by Trump’s gestapo, I'll just tell them I've been anti-Democrat since Sleepy Joe ripped me off for 600 clams

One reason Twitter is dying is because people are finally realizing how fucking stupid it is to pay a douchey billionaire a monthly fee for a "VIP account" that only makes them feel obligated to create more free content for him to attract advertisers with (and reward him for helping to elect Trump).

This a big deal: "China’s carbon dioxide emissions have been flat or falling for 18 months"
China's economy has grown by ~5% in the last year, so this comprehensively debunks the idea (again) that emissions are tied to growth. So yes, faster progress needed, but this is how you turn the corner.

Don't count on that $2000 tariff rebate check yet, Trump is lying about a lot of things with regard to it, including the math, never mind the fact that it's been no more "strategic" than a completely unnecessary tax.

Three Ways You Can Tell Trump Is Lying about Tariff Rebates - emptywheel
Trump's promises he'll pay tariff rebates isn't real. Rather, it's part of a two-sided effort to pressure SCOTUS not to make him pay back taxes he unlawfully collected.

People have gotten so used to thinking "Well, everything sucks, but at least we have rich political comedians like Jimmy Kimmel and Stephen Colbert speaking truth to power" that they've forgotten how pointless that is, and that the only people who actually benefit from it are rich comedians.

NY Gov Hochul made the anti-free-bussing remarks from Puerto Rico, "where she and other New York Democrats are gathering for an annual get-together." How many bus fares paid for all that prime rib? 🤔
