empty seats can't melt supreme court justices

The killing of schoolchildren should shock our conscience and cause us to recoil in horror. A nation whose leaders can so easily shrug off the death of children, no matter the cause, is in need of moral repair. There must be accountability and lessons learned from this tragedy. And we must never forget that Iranian children, too, are children of God. 7:08 PM · Mar 12, 2026 · 7,179 Views

Shouldn't be rare to see this said by a US senator

“This technology disrupts humanities-trained—largely Democratic—voters, and makes their economic power less. And increases the economic power of vocationally trained, working-class, often male, working-class voters,” Karp said in a CNBC interview

I Will Never Forgive Trae Young For Surpassing Kobe Bryant's Career High For Assists In A Game Eight Times | Defector Kobe Bryant was not just some normal NBA player. No indeed: He was the second-best shooting guard in the history of the Los Angeles Lakers franchise, and something like the 11th-best Laker overall, an...

Not even Kobe himself would have believed this. Stop it.

if the amount that is spent on gambling was simply in a savings account or IRA would be so much better than gambling. it's not even close.

the super long shot parlays always get splashed over social media to make it seem possible

when this first launched in AZ I did the $1000 free bet for a few bets and hit two like $14k or so parlays and saved some but ended up giving too much back.

I have a much better control now and only do a small amount of betting.

but I agree it's ontologicallly evil

The chapter about the DK/FD reps whose job is to become texting buddies with "VIPs" (high-volume losing bettors) and take them out to games and stuff so that they keep betting and losing, all while carefully avoiding any discussions with the VIP about gambling addiction, made me want to [redacted]

White daughters are useful when you want people to be scared of Black men, but they are not so useful when they want rights, I see.

Gotta love (sarcastic) the NY Times' assumption in that headline that only Iranians are likely to be infuriated by the US bombing of WORLD heritage cultural sites in Iran.
Maybe not in the technical sense of the term, but this is a crime against humanity.

Says a lot about him that he's still on twitter :/

Ramadan is a time for modesty and respect, requiring covered shoulders and knees. Crop tops, which expose the midriff, are considered too revealing for traditional, public, or family Iftar gatherings.

No idea who this Naomi Wolf person is but can people not be normal about Arab and Muslim women?

I'm just praying for some brave soul to leak footage of Kash Patel getting tied up like a fucking pretzel

Cosign all of Jonny's writing here, I occasionally cover the sports betting industry and consider myself reasonably well-informed about how it works, and there were several entire chapters in this book where I was just, like, holy shit, I had no idea, man

One of the most important lessons to learn as a blogger is that one simply does not have to blog

“Her vision is clear: Inspire Unity” made me laugh out loud

Ex-DOJ prosecutor who proclaimed ‘this job sucks’ will run for Congress Julie T. Le made headlines during DHS’s surge in Minneapolis and will launch a campaign to challenge Rep. Ilhan Omar for her seat.

Pretty solid entrant here in the genre of Journalist Politely Letting Interview Subject Hang Herself With Her Own Words

Watching footage of this makes me openly sob. Disabled folks repeatedly put their bodies on the line in hopes for better. Needless to say, we’re not impressed lately.

They felt safe to protest when a democrat was in charge and then they got the shit beat out of them and then a republican got in charge and then tried to deport everyone in addition to beating the shit out of everyone.

They are college students, they are trying to graduate, not be beat up.

or it's because the cops beat the shit out of everyone and tried to deport many of the leaders

it's cool @editorialboard.bsky.social limits replies after posting this. yes people can't genuinely be concerned about seeing a genocide. just ignore how many kids were expelled, professors brutalized and the police called to raid encampments. it's always the least powerful people's fault

you're living a fictional existence

that's certainly one conclusion you could draw i guess...

The sooner we can get over the inherent sexism of wondering who hurt these (usually white) women to make them like this & just admit they're the same strain of dumb evil asshole as their male counterparts, the sooner we can stop reading articles like this.

Taco Bell, I hate your new bougie food rollouts and $7 price points. Put a stoner in charge, make the food cheaper, and give me a million dollars for literature

very fun how so much of this stuff reduces down to “i wanted to be able to say slurs”

1000% this. like, i came of age in peak south park times, i know you can get a rush out of edgy stuff when suddenly there are no parents to police you.

but like, it shouldn’t take a good person long to realize *why* some words and ideas have sharp edges, and who they cut when used

I try to put myself back in my early to mid 20s shoes when I was a more selfish person and surely didn't see the danger in some stupid stuff here or there -- but I still can't commiserate with these people, as even in my misguided youth I had a soul and knew right from wrong
