Today is National/World Walrus Day! These semi-aquatic mammals, which are a type of seal, share similar bones with humans. Their specialized forelimbs have evolved for swimming.

Well since "drain the swamp" dates to the mid-1800s, I'm going to guess–and this is going to be a wild guess–

Tens of thousands of politicians throughout history.
"Drain the swamp"?

Oh, wait, someone already ran on that. Who was it? 🤔

GB decided to punt to PHI from the PHI 40 on 4th & 11 with 12:52 remaining in the 4th while losing 0 to 3.

With a Surrender Index of 26.81, this punt ranks at the 99.7th percentile of cowardly punts of the 2025 season, and the 97th percentile of all punts since 1999.

There have been four games in all of NFL History that ended 44-22, and two of them happened today in the afternoon timeslot. Weird.

Here's some real talk: Dem strategists urging Dems to avoid the "trap" of talking about Trump occupying cities are saying this precisely in order to get quoted in NYT and elsewhere, and everyone involved in this charade knows it.

Now the DNC should keep pretending they're doing a convention until Trump is fully committed.

Pretending, because holding a convention that shifts attention to the out-party, away from the incumbent, right before the midterms is self-evidently dumb. Fire Ken Martin.
Btw. this comes after the DNC Chair floated holding a convention before the midterms and I bet someone on TV mentioned it and that's how he got the idea to do it too.

Pity the poor Senator. Work is so unfufilling because of all the dumb rules that God made. And it's lonely too! No one from the other party holds hands in public anymore like all the Senators used to do when being a Senator wasn't just politics but racism too

In the 90s my Dad had a friend, Jerry, who loved brewing beer at home. That was his hobby. His full-time job was working for the federal government.

Then Jerry opened a brewery (Old Dominion) and his hobby became his job.

This is what happened with the internet: hobbies became (paying) jobs.

It’s offensive to be called “pro-genocide” when I’ve been in on the “Fuck Netanyahu” party longer than many of these people even cared about the conflict.

Somehow this framing is only believable when you use it absurdly. Like so.

Trump must lead the way to:

Seats

Ice cream

Early afternoon naps

The North Pole, where Santa hides from ICE

More Democrats in Congress, again

I think a thing that gets memoryholed about Iraq II, is that in terms of symmetric conflict, that shit was over insanely fast. It’s the having zero plan for after you removed Saddam that mired us there for two decades.

The better question is: does Trump ever remove the hat 'while on camera'? (If so, how often and when?)

If the answer is never, or close to it, the hat is serving a rather obvious purpose.
So is he wearing that dumbass hat even when he's inside now, or does he just put it on for pictures?

Seriously, try to imagine literally any other president in history, Democrat or Republican, wearing a stupid frigging hat like that all the time. It's completely insane.
You too can buy the hat President Trump wore in the Situation Room when bombing Iran for just $55 at Trump Store dot com.

Wait are distractions good now?
Literally begging you to post about Just Some Stuff. We will see the news I absolutely promise. Twenty people will repost the same exact thing about the news. Only you can post about a turtle you saw
i don't mean to come off as rude but we cannot sustain ourselves on outrage and anger forever. i think it's even more important now to post about other things too. even if it gets less engagement. you never know who will find it cool and interesting.
