Well, gas is expensive, and food is expensive, and we’re doing a war nobody wants, but at least there are no jobs

Grew up Catholic. 13 years of Catholic school. Went through confirmation. Church every Sunday, or the occasional Saturday night.

JD Vance is a bad Catholic whose actions are incompatible with anything I was ever taught. This is setting aside his deep amorality and intellectual bankruptcy.

Again: Not hyperbole, misinterpretation, or a joke that Christian Dominionism is a strain of apocalyptic accelerationism which VERY LITERALLY SEEKS to hasten their vision of the Biblical end of the world, & the people who believe this have VERY CAREFULLY worked their way into the halls of U.S. power

As of tonight, licenses of trans people across Kansas are being invalidated en masse, enabling the overnight criminalization of an entire group of people for going about our lives. It’s often said you never know when you’re living through history, so let me assure you: that’s what’s happening now.

Observation of a Rapidly Pulsating Radio Source by A. HEWISH S. J. BELL J. D. H. PILKINGTON P. F. SCOTT R. A. COLLINS Mullard Radio Astronomy Observatory, Cavendish Laboratory, University of Cambridge Unusual signals from pulsating radio sources have been recorded at the Mullard Radio Astronomy Observatory. The radiation seems to come from local objects within the gala‹y, and may be associated with oscillations of white dwarf or neutron stars. In July 1967, a large radio telescope operating at a frequency of 81-5 MHz was brought into use at the Mullard Radio Astronomy Observatory. This instrument was designed to investigate the angular structure of compact radio sources by observing the scintillation caused by the irregular structure of the interplanetary medium'. The initial survey includes the whole sky in the declination range - 08° < 8<44° and this area is scanned once a week. A large fraction of the sky is thus under regular surveillance. Soon after the instrument was brought into operation it was noticed that signals which appeared at first to be weak sporadic interference were repeatedly observed at a fixed declination and right ascension; this result showed that the source could not be terrestrial in origin.

Jocelyn Bell and Anthony Hewish announced their discovery of a “rapidly pulsating radio source” — what we now refer to as a pulsar — with a paper in @nature.com #OTD in 1968. 🧪 🔭 ⚛️

What if their heads were just shaped this way, and anthropologists have had it all wrong?

Since Universal owns Focus Features, I think they should add some more roaming characters to their theme parks

Slick rich opportunist asshole. Need to stop treating him like some wunderkind who can save us from Trump and treat him like you would someone who flips sketchy boats on Facebook marketplace.

Cantaloupe. Honeydew melon isn’t far behind. Pomelo is fine but never with the effort.

They could have covered “Train in Vain” together

Connor O’Malley is an incisive satirist. I wish he was just a guy doing a pretty good impression of a guy you know from high school who went to the hospital because of gas station viagra, but unfortunately a lot of men are 50/50 that or a guy who eats raw chicken to salmonellamax to health.

Incalculable number of deaths caused by this absolute failure of a man.

Three panel comic. Panel 1: baby monkeys in overalls jumping on a bed, having fun. Panel 2: one of the monkeys falls over the edge of the bed, reaching out as he falls. Panel 3: one of the other monkeys, now looking super buff and badass, grabs him by the arm to save him heroically. “Monkey Stronger Together.”

I think we should have winter lights. Just lights we hang up to feel nice until spring comes.

Mean, cruel, spiteful, emotionally incapable monsters cannot be reformed or trained out of these image qualities. They need to be prosecuted in a way we haven’t seen since the post-war era.

One point of the initial Nuremberg Trials was to layout the extent of he crimes committed by the Nazi regime in order to assess further prosecutions. Crimes against humanity was considered one of the chief offenses.

Anyway it sure would be cool if this happened, but for all of ICE.

Pam Bondi is horrific, of course, but a different kind of histrionics and evil from the others who, to be clear, have these same qualities. But Bondi is really more about an upsetting amount of psychological damage. The rest, as far as I’ve seen, just seem like giant assholes.

It’s legit depressing that there’s a neck-and-neck contest for worst cabinet secretary and all three contenders for the top spot (Noem, Hegseth, RFK Jr.) have an actual body count to consider. RFK Jr. may quietly end up killing the most people and the most indiscriminately.

The writers are paid $10 an article with high volume expectation and old shitty Gawker-style “but if it dos well we will give you more money.” (This is not an exaggeration, but it’s possible they gave a cost of living bump up to $15 an article.)

“We aren’t doing the thing we are explicitly doing and have repeatedly been caught doing”

They hate women. They hate your mom, they hate your sister, they hate you, they hate me. They always have.

If Caroline Cash brings anything back to the modern Nancy strips, it should be the vague idea that Sluggo might be an orphan squatting in an abandoned house.

Inside you there are two wolfs. Unfortunately, one of them is Naomi and you just saw a plane contrail.
