The 90s and 00s saw a lot of movement in the direction of open bigotry and assholery no longer being acceptable in polite society and reactionaries basically decided that if that is where the world is headed they’d rather set it all on fire
So the problem here is that this would essentially be writing a $200B check to importers. There is no way to unwind this policy, the absolute closest you could come would be to send checks to… everyone…? And call it a day
I actually think this happened in the first month or two of this term but other than that basically yes. The United States of 2024 was fundamentally different than the United States of 2025 and there is no going back

No, I don't think i will
I admit I care for this shit less and less. Oh are you going to hold more hearings? Are you going to ask her to testify again? Is that even legal? Does the Geneva convention ban it? If you aren’t going to install actual consequences I would much prefer you shut the fuck up
By the time you’re 40 you should have strong opinions on which NSAIDs work best for which types of pain
Bruh
I was gobsmacked. Like if you re-recorded Wish You Were Here as a 1950s doo-wop song or Brick as a hair metal ballad. And then did a bad job with them
There’s zero despair or desperation in it, the drums are all wrong, the guitar is all wrong, there’s some phaser-like effect at the end that sounds like 1999 alternative, the vocals are like he’s never thought for a second about the words he’s singing
Late to this but the Luke Combs cover of Fast Car sucks? It sounds like every generic stadium pop country ballad released in the last twenty years. Like it was arranged and performed by someone whose ability to feel emotions was surgically removed at birth
I’m not sure we’re taking this seriously enough
“lol,” said the scorpion. “lmao”
Sometimes my wife and I divvy up the races and each research half and then share after so this process takes less time
I know I’m a legit adult now because I do this in my home at the precise moment I look at my watch and realize I need to leave in 15 minutes to go vote

This appears to be from a WSJ Ed board oped that says in the sub hed that they have plenty? Anyone have a subscription and can say whether there are any actual sources here?
You gotta wait until all the elementary schoolers are buried before you can accuse someone else of indiscriminately targeting civilians, man
Jesse Singal is a bigot who wants to kill trans kids
“Taxing the wealthy won’t fix the deficit”
An intricate octopus cut from a single piece of paper
Japanese artist Masayo Fukuda hand-cut this life-sized octopus from one sheet of paper. Known as Kirie in Japanese (translated as “cut picture”), the art form involves cutting intricate forms from a single sheet of white paper and then contrasting it against a black background to reveal the design.
“I want to assure the American people that this war, which 80% of them do not support, can and will continue for a long, long time.”
All it takes to debunk the theory that thousands of kids were pushed into gender-affirming surgeries is to talk to literally any trans person who has tried to get gender-affirming care of ANY kind. It's extremely difficult.
When we talk about Baby Boomers not getting off the stage: In 1997, the US president was born in 1946.
In 2007, the US president was born in 1946.
In 2017, the US president was born in 1946.
And next year in 2027? The US president will have been born in 1946.
I sincerely hope I’m wrong but I have been hearing this for literal decades now
I suspect blue no matter who is the default for 95+% of Dem voters and the remaining 5% are a roughly even mix between lefties, ideological centrists, and people who have no idea what the difference is between the House and Senate
Has anyone asked Platner about his willingness to, say, expand the court or pass a fresh VRA or add DC and PR as states or all that kind of thing? Is he at least saying he’ll do anything meaningful?
Climate change, vaccines, healthcare, tax policy, income inequality, foreign policy, energy production, it’s the exact same “discussion” over and over again forever until we all die
Everything in American society ultimately boils down to this Onion article from 25 years ago.
This Kid And Their Parents And Their Doctors And Their Therapist All Agree This Kid Is Trans vs. An Atlantic Opinion Writer Says No They Aren’t
It’s so funny that these people love the “good times make weak men” meme because they are the weak men they’re warning us against
