Genuinely nostalgic for the days when Donald Trump was a small-time creep who only hurt the people who came in contact with him.

the mantis shrimp has 16 types of color receptors.
humans have 3.
we see roughly 10 million colors and think that's impressive.
the mantis shrimp is sitting there processing a visual reality so hyperchromatic that scientists genuinely aren't sure what it's like to be one.

He certainly is a POS.
A picture of Marco Rubio shoes that are too large for him
I’m a grown man who works for the president of the United States who is afraid to not wear the shoes he bought me that do not fit
Thought I would have gotten used to it by now, but I’m still grappling with the realization of just how stupid the men running this country are.

goddamn is this a breath of fresh air after Allred 2024
There's a new hot bird in town! And it's the first time NYC has ever seen a trumpeter swan, in recorded history (after it came back from the brink of extinction). In the last week, it's been spotted frequently hanging out with one of our mute swans 👀

That Elon Musk, the richest man ever to live, walks the earth free and unbothered after condemning millions of the poorest people to an early grave is a sin we must spend the rest of our lives correcting.
More ICE human rights violations.
People, including children and the elderly, were held for weeks in Colorado ICE hold rooms, without beds, in clear violation of ICE regulations.

So he’s surrendering without accomplishing any of his stated objectives while declaring victory. Exactly what we said would happen.
Wahls: The war in Iran is going to be devastating for farm states like Iowa. You mentioned diesel — that is what the vast majority of farm machines, like tractors or combines, run on. And the cost of oil not only has a huge impact on fuel costs, it also has a huge impact on other farm inputs
NBC’s Richard Engel: “The White House meme campaign is outraging many former US military commanders… they say only someone who has never really seen combat would think it’s a joke and put out material like this.”
Schlossberg: If this becomes the new normal and the president is able to trademark America’s birthday and issue his own currency while weakening the dollar, having gold skyrocket, and increasing prices on every commodity and input cost in our economy, we’re getting screwed and he’s getting rich.
Lindsey’s diplomacy working wonders in UAE.
I don't think you have to Nostradamus to figure that bombing Iran might raise oil prices. And it seems pretty obvious that buying oil in advance of causing an oil price spike might just save Americans a lot of money. But...
...maybe there wasn't much planning?
#6. Trust Is Transactional — And It’s Broken I asked what qualities would prove that a politician actually understands their lives. The answers were simple. Be authentic. Show up. Know what groceries cost. “There’s people that really have to make the decision — am I going to pay rent or am I going to get groceries? Politicians are paid. A lot of them don’t understand that the things of the day-to-day life don’t really apply to them.” A third of the room raised their hands when I asked if they had personally faced the choice between rent and food. A grocery store manager who leans Democrat put the representation gap into words: “Most politicians, they’re from Columbia University or Duke University… most people didn’t go to those kinds of schools. Maybe it would be better if someone was there who had a more general experience.” These young people aren’t asking politicians to say the right things. They’re asking them to have lived the right things.

Bhattacharya loves his anti-vax pals almost as much as he loves railing against the “politicization” of science.
And he loves that almost as much as he loves blaming scientists for the loss of public trust in vaccines.
