I think “all the American voter cares about is gas prices” is overly simplistic and broadly incorrect

but I sure as shit think they are going to care about them rising this much this fast

his tolerance is built up so the videos of bomb/missile impacts aren’t hitting anymore, he needs to see someone shooting a gun

though critically as we’ve seen from Minneapolis he will not want to actually see the person who’s getting shot, because that involves seeing blood and that’s Yucky

I love being a guard for a crime boss, but I hate when coworkers hear a noise and go walk away and don’t come back. We were in the middle of a conversation, rude! Not my job to find him though.

Having faced no consequences for anything, Trump has noticed that he has the world’s largest military at his command, and believes he has found a brilliant solution for solving problems that no one before him was smart enough to discover: just kill everyone in your way, until they obey you.

It is, of course, all gender.

We're doing War-as-Gender-Affirming-Care. Some men get hair transplants, some buy a too-expensive car, Donald Trump and Pete Hegseth accidentally-on-purpose tank the global economy killing thousands in an idiot war.

it is important at this time to have Noah Wyle turning to the camera and telling the audience that healthcare disparities are a reality in frontline medical care.

I’m sorry l, but I had been assured that The Modern State Is But A Committee For Managing The Affairs Of The Entire Bourgeoisie and I am seeing little evidence of this. Is there someone I could speak to?

I do need President Donald J Trump to get on camera TODAY and explain to me and the rest of the American people exactly what he thinks Yu-Gi-Oh is

Unfortunately, “Yo brother, legal team confirmed we can’t work with minors rn” is an instant classic

throwing two seconds of Yu-Gi-Oh in there is also such a choice

It's such bitch behavior to do this whole Department of War rebranding then just go to Russian lengths to avoid calling it a war.

“we need a Firefly reboot” is just “make it 1997 again through science and/or magic” in a different dialect

if we bomb them enough we can fill up our Power Meter and when it fully charges we can use our special ability to deploy 1 Peshmerga anywhere on the map

It was funny to see, I don't even remember which US newspaper it was anymore, but an obit of Ali Khamenei said something to the effect of "he lived a paranoid life in which he believed the US and Israel were out to kill him, which eventually happened"
