Remembering Daniel Craig answering that question from the kid in Road to Perdition - "Why are you always smiling?"

"'Cause it's all so fucking hilarious."

How many of the liberals complaining about today's mass shooting even know that the A in AR-15 stands for?

As a conservative, I am so furious about a potential third Trump term that I may write in "Edmund Burke" if he runs again in 2028.

Noam Chomsky made it very clear that he was a scumbag when he denied the Khmer Rouge genocide back in the 1970s: if you’ve been trying to deny the obvious about him ever since, well, that’s on you.
Well, there's a photo I never expected to see in my life. Noam Chomsky palling around with Steve Bannon.

Trump looks like he's dying.
Q: At the end of this year, those extended Obamacare subsidies expire. What's your message to those 24m Americans who will see their premiums go up?

TRUMP: Don't make it sound so bad. Obviously you're a sycophant for Democrats. You're obviously a provider of bad news for Republicans.

Avengers: Endgame - "Wait. Who threw Thor's Hammer, if it wasn't Thor?"

Reveal.

All rise in the theater.
Raising the always fun question: What are your most memorable theater-going experiences?

Mine also include The Matrix, Blair Witch, and being way too stoned in Belgium when Fellowship of the Ring was sold out so we sat in the back row for Mulholland Drive instead.
It was hands-down one of the most memorable theater-going experiences I can remember, a collective 30-minute butt-clench/armrest-grab for the final climb. And we knew he lived! Wild.

Jeff Epstein, Chomsky wrote, taught him the intricacies of the global finance system in ways nobody else had been able to.

I guess the other people who tried didn't have a sex worker sucking Gampy Noam's shriveled cock while talking about exchange rates.
Chomsky had deeper ties with Epstein than previously known, documents reveal
The philosopher and the sex trafficker were in contact long after Epstein was convicted of soliciting prostitution from a minor, documents reveal

I can't stress this enough as a Democratic voter - please let Republicans be the party of Data Centers. If you have a Democratic Governor playing footsie with big tech & encouraging the placement of data centers in your state - let them know you don't like it.

At the risk of being an out of touch upper middle class dude:

DUIs *should* make it more expensive for you to drive! Possibly prohibitively!
The California ACLU is staunchly opposed to the ignition interlock device program and is a big reason that it has not been expanded. Despite the fact that California heavily subsidizes the cost for low-income drunk drivers, the ACLU says that the program is a form of "racialized wealth extraction."

That same 30% are the unabashed fascists in the country. It's always 30 to 35%. 30% would say to bring back chattel slavery if they were sure the survey was anonymous.

Every disaster movie starts with someone ignoring a scientist…
More than 250 people who were exposed to measles, including dozens of unvaccinated school-aged children, are quarantining in South Carolina as the state wrestles to contain an outbreak that has sickened more than 110 people.
Hundreds Quarantined in South Carolina as Measles Outbreak Shows No Sign of Slowing
The outbreak shows no signs of slowing, likely because of the affected area’s “lower-than-hoped-for vaccination coverage,” a state health official said.

It is absolutely wild to me that Miller is so monomaniacal that he can't see that the GOP's best shot at long-term relevance was appealing to conservative minority voters on cultural issues. Racism makes you stupid.
“…And yet there are Republican lawmakers who eagerly facilitate the disinheritance of their own children.”

That right there is some dark, disturbing shit.
