brianmcginnisnc Brian McGinnis' wife has NOT been allowed to see him in the hospital. He is currently awaiting surgery for severe injuries. Legal counsel has also been denied access. A Marine veteran. A firefighter. A father of four. And his family still cannot see him.
so apparently Brian McGinnis has been denied access to both his family and legal representation since a sitting senator broke his arm
Most people also won’t finish your 500-word article. So write at whatever length is appropriate for the subject.
yeah, that's a conversation to encourage them to have with, for instance, a pro-vaxx doctor from their own community; white ol' me is probably not the one who is going to convince them.
but a lot of actual honest-to-God anti-vaxxers are part of movements of the straight-up evil, and you cannot separate that from their stance on vaccines. *all* of their takes are harmful and cruel and eugenicist.
we have been having this discourse since the pandemic started. I had no issues with the vaccine-hesitant due to a legitimate mistrust of the government (e.g., Black and Indigenous folks), and the information landscape has gotten mindbogglingly chaotic.
I just did! lol.
Harper to the judge: "Your driver's license doesn't list your height and weight at birth. It doesn't list where you used to live. It identifies who you are now."
DHS nominee Markwayne Mullin is one of the most active stock-traders in the Senate — and violated the STOCK Act against insider trading as recently as last August.
He currently holds stock in L3Harris, which has millions in contracts with ICE and FEMA.
The grift continues.
I maintain that simply arresting Elon musk and making a real example of him is the quickest way to global stability
she’s right and she should say it
there is nothing the white-dominated music industry would love more than to make a minimally marketable approximation of Black music without involving any Black people in any way
thank you for this! I saw it earlier but no alt-text, no share.
A sequence of shots from the TV series MASH. Three surgeons are operating in a mobile army surgical theater, and are masked in cotton masks, wearing cotton caps to cover hair, and aprons. Bright lights are visible in their backgrounds. The first, panel shows Frank Burns (an absolute jerk character but Larry Linville, his actor, was not) saying, “Everybody knows war is Hell”. The second panel shows BJ Hunnicutt (Mike Farrell) saying (sarcastically) “ remember, you heard it here last.” The third and fourth panels show Hawkeye Pierce (Alan Alda) saying, “War isn’t Hell. War is war and Hell is hell and of the two, war is a lot worse.“ 5th panel shows Father Mulcahey, the chaplain (William Christopher) saying, “How do you figure that, Hawkeye?” 6th is back to Hawkeye, saying “ Easy, Father. Tell me, who goes to Hell?” 7th is Fr Mulcahey saying “ Sinners, I believe.” The last three panels are all Hawkeye, saying, “ Exactly. There are no innocent bystanders in Hell. But war is chock full of them. Little kids, cripples, old ladies. In fact, except for a few of the brass, almost everybody involved is an innocent bystander.”

Agree that I hate this is still relevant.

Capitalism doesn't invest in producing new kinds of things any more. It buys up existing things and either strips them for parts to sell as scrap or enshittifies them with paywalls and bricks them if you don't pay a subscription.

Congratulations, WaPo, you did it, you published the worst take
I'm unsure how people really think people were downplaying a virus that can kill you, make you go blind, wipe out your immune system for years, and oh yeah come back and kill you a decade after you thought you'd shaken it.
The picture shows a needle made of bone, it resembles its modern descendants with an eye at one end and a tapered end.
Things used in everyday life are the real archaeological treasures!
This sewing needle was made from animal bone some 13,000 years ago.
Some designs simply don't need to be improved, because form and functions were perfectly matched from the start

yep. I wasn't a dipshit before I went back to school as a "mature" student and I'm not a dipshit now. the only thing that changed was I got a focused, formal education.

It seems unwise to die on the hill that Israel is not an apartheid state
these people don't have any values. they don't really care about religion, or history, or science, or actual real children, especially Iranian ones. they simply want what they want, they want to be sadistic and cruel and powerful, and they'll use any expedient rationale as a red herring.
we wear masks to protect people. you wear masks to brutalize them with impunity. this is not at all the same thing, but I can see how you want to color it that way so you can rationalize just doing whatever the fuck you want to people.
OH GODDAMMIT
Donald J. Trump C @realDonaldTrump + There will be no deal with Iran except UNCONDITIONAL SURRENDER! After that, and the selection of a GREAT & ACCEPTABLE Leader(s), we, and many of our wonderful and very brave allies and partners, will work tirelessly to bring Iran back from the brink of destruction, making it economically bigger, better, and stronger than ever before. IRAN WILL HAVE A GREAT FUTURE. "MAKE IRAN GREAT AGAIN (MIGA!)." Thank you for your attention to this matter! President DONALD J. TRUMP
Unconditional surrender without ground troops. Right.
the Austin mass shooter was a Tesla employee who assaulted a coworker during a company-allowed prayer break late last year
the company refused to give the victim her assailant's name so she could press charges, and he went on to become a mass shooter

I think they might have better luck spending two thousand dollars holding a press conference where they detail who made the key decisions to collaborate with the Trump administration, how and when they were fired, and explaining what would stop that from happening again.
my dog can feel anxiety because my dog has a body. that has sensations. Claude does not and cannot.
where do you feel anxiety? *in your body*. does Claude have a body? no. therefore Claude cannot possibly feel fucking anything. my God, you people are pathetic and silly.
