Had no idea this was where that phrase came from and I was there when it originally aired

Like I think they want us to believe that bringing down the cost of production will equal more production and a new golden age but we know better. Consolidation and corporatization have proven otherwise.

There are times when you know you’re done writing because you reach a satisfying stopping point. And then there are times you know you’re done writing because your brain is like β€œI will leak out of your fucking nose if you force me to make one more thought.”

Optical illusion of a woman bent over some papers. Her sunglasses are pushed up and she is wearing a hair band so the top of her head looks exactly like a Muppet face

Quick public service announcement

Just been informed my old Twitter account is back and I want to make it VERY clear it’s not me.

Haven’t posted on that hell site for years.

I know it was desperate times but Dems really, really have to vet candidates better.

There were stories about this dude being a racist POS before and we all fell in line behind "vote blue no matter who" but look where that's gotten us in this case.

Same should go for Graham Planter.

It’s Not Complicated The mainstream media failed the public during the genocide in Gaza. The Key's editor-in-chief shares her vision for what comes next.

Former LA Times managing editor @sarayasin.bsky.social launches The Key, a new publication about Palestine that will be "a home for journalists who have had their stories spiked in mainstream outlets."

Her opening essay is worth every second of your time: www.thekeymagazine.com/p/western-jo...

Cops don’t keep us safe. They exist to defend power, capital, and the white, Christian patriarchy.

Did any reporter at that presser tell Noem she was fired?

Trump just canned Kristi Noem and replaced her with Sen. Markwayne Mullin.

That congressional hearing must have been going horribly even by this administration's standards for him to boot her

This isn't shocking when you remember the United States was built on taking indigenous land and slavery. For generations white people here have never seen anyone else as "good."

I saw an interview with Hamish Linklater where he (jokingly) lamented that he had yet to work with Flanagan again after Midnight Mass. So happy he's back in the mix.

Billions (2016-2023): "rich people! so crazy and terrible but also smart and kinda cool am i right"

Succession (2018-2023): "rich people! so crazy and terrible and stupid and uncool but aren't they just so sad"

Industry (2020-): "… and in conclusion, that's how you get a Ghislaine Maxwell"

Nobody hates living veterans more than Republicans. Dead veterans they can exploit in videos. But living veterans with opinions and medical needs are literally offensive to conservatives.

Not gonna lie, watching all these burger CEOs eat their wares has made me want a cheeseburger. Now I just need the CEO of Five Guys to do it and I'll treat myself.

people love to say "you should read conservative opinion pieces too" and every conservative opinion piece is like "corporations should have the right to vote but minorities shouldn't. source: I made it up"
