Just want to share with my American friends how the Australians respond to a shooting tragedy. Action, rather than thoughts and prayers.

Rob Reiner directed some of the most beloved movies of all time, including Stand By Me, This is Spinal Tap, and The Princess Bride. His production company also made movies like The Shawshank Redemption, Before Sunrise and Michael Clayton. The film industry has lost one of its titans.

Trump granted this guy’s request for asylum in April. But all you’ll hear out of his mouth is how the guy came here during the Biden administration.

Russia’s Central Bank found a 10 trillion ruble black hole in unpaid loans. That’s 24% of the entire Russian budget gone. Another reason why the #Kremlin is desperately pushing for a “peace” deal to save itself. We didn’t surrender in 2022, we won’t in 2025 — Russia is weaker and poorer than ever.

You might not have caught what just happened on the Senate floor, but the Senate just “deemed as passed” the Epstein resolution.
That means as soon as it arrives from the House, it automatically passes the Senate (with no amendments) and heads to the President’s desk.
Wow.

it's not that i ever doubted that being a barista was a skilled position, but my year-long effort to try to produce a half-decent latte at home has convinced me that a good barista is easily more skilled than virtually every c-suite executive on the planet

@[email protected] Thank you for this. It’s depressing that we have not been able to attack these people for the being the soulless, culturally vapid monsters that they are. We make it acceptable for them to be that way because so few ever openly criticize them for it.

Korean soldiers were like, "This Southern fried chicken is lit! I can get down with this! I respect your Mama's recipe but... what are your thoughts on double frying? Shall we cook it again? For more crunch? And what do y'all know about soy garlic glaze? Have you considered honey butter?" 😋

It’s painfully clear. By refusing to swear in Adelita Grijalva, Speaker Johnson’s covering up Jeffrey Epstein’s global sex-trafficking ring.
Hey GOP: Bring back the House, cancel your health care cuts, reopen the government and release the files.
