Indeed. The magic isn't always hidden... sometimes it's right in front of us, waiting for us to notice it.

Funny how the moment a public service starts helping ordinary people, some corporations suddenly have a problem with it. Affordable access to medication should be about people's health, not protecting profit margins.

Nothing quite matched the thrill of opening a fresh pack of baseball cards back then. Great memories... Tom Seaver and Johnny Bench were legends! ⚾

A harsh verdict, but if character is truly built through work, then this might be the first real opportunity he's had to start constructing one.

Maybe it's not *ideal* to have someone with so much anger and so little self-control responsible for deciding if the US should start a nuclear war.

Senator Ron Wyden @wyden.senate.gov · 17/04/2026
I sent a classified letter to House and Senate colleagues about a secret interpretation of surveillance law that every American should be concerned about. Representative Massie is right. The Constitution requires EVERY member to vote against a clean reauthorization.
A tweet from Representative Thomas Massie that reads:

I just viewed 2 Top Secret FISA docs.
1) FISA Court opinion that raises serious concerns about FBI implementation of FISA 702.
2) letter by Senator Wyden describing a secret government interpretation of FISA law.
The Constitution requires I vote No on FISA 702 reauthorization.

I miss President Obama so much. I will love that man forever. Was he perfect? No. But he was a man filled with decency, with an aura that moved your soul. He never punched down on people or dehumanized groups for a laugh. He understood the solemnity of the office, and he remains such a good man.

this is my nephew's homework and i'm gonna cry
Elementary school homework with the alphabet at the top. The question says: imagine you are a wizard with a magic wand. What kind of spells would you cast? What magical things would you do?

A child's handwritten answer: If I was a wizard I would make life easy. because there will be no wars and no crimenals. I will disapear every bad guy in the world so no one will get hurt.

There is a drawing of a blue sky, a yellow sun, a black wizard with a wand in his hand, and a crowd of people. There's a caption bubble with the wizard saying no wars, and a caption bubble over the crowd that says everybody cheers

So there’s no regime change, we lift all sanctions against them going back decades, they retain missile and drone capabilities, they control the strait and can charge tolls, and keep their enriched uranium. So much for “unconditional surrender.”

The President of the United States is threatening to commit war crimes and wipe out a "whole civilization" — all because he started a disastrous war of his own making and had no plan and no strategy for how to end it. This is abhorrent, and the American people do not support this.

Sounds about right, it’s that classic "progressive until it touches my property line” mentality. Everyone wants affordable housing and inclusivity in theory, but the moment density or zoning changes come up, suddenly it’s all about “preserving neighborhood character."

Exclusive: No evidence of primary residence violation by Fed Gov Lisa Cook, says Michigan official
The property tax authority in Ann Arbor, Michigan, said that Federal Reserve Governor Lisa Cook hasn’t broken rules for tax breaks on a home there that Cook declared her primary residence.

The Prime Minister is hoping that a state visit from a close friend of Jeffrey Epstein will dial down the furore surrounding the Prime Minister’s decision to promote a close friend of Jeffrey Epstein. And it’s probably the best chance he’s got.

"I don't care that he's dead." "He's not a hero." "He's a scumbag." "He shouldn't be celebrated." No, no. I'm not saying that about Charlie Kirk. Charlie Kirk said that about George Floyd. Just in case anyone's interested in what he thought was fair to say about someone who was killed on camera.
