Thinking about the fact that Trump put Ben Carson in charge of HUD just because he thought Urban meant black.

It's a failure that so many people are even aware of the HHS Secretary. It's one of those jobs that calls for quiet competence. If you're aware of them, they're probably fucking up, and holy shit is he fucking up. Often intentionally.

I can't talk about what I want to happen after the election because I start to sound like Sephiroth, and if a dull normie like me feels like that well... some shit better go down.

In theory, withholding judgment about any accusation until the process plays out is entirely reasonable, but when that process starts with the assumption that the woman is lying, that standard collapses.

RFK Jr. alleges that he wants to focus on chronic disease and sideline infectious disease research, but the big dummy doesn’t care about the interplay between the two. A new study estimates that 12% of all cancer cases in 2024 were caused by infections, including H. pylori, HPV, HBV, and EBV.

Our findings highlight the importance of infection control to achieve cancer prevention. Scientifically proven, but often underused, approaches include HPV and HBV vaccination; testing and treatment o...

It’s very weird how mad some people get when a filmmaker says they don’t like AI. Comments on an article about Guillermo del Toro saying he doesn’t believe in using it are full of people melting down saying he’s going to be irrelevant. Why exactly?

Many comfortable white people prefer to believe the lie that welfare recipients are just lazy scammers since the alternative is deeply uncomfortable: people are suffering as a result of the same structure that enables their comfort.

They're just going to lie and claim they got him, and the grim thing is all their followers will clap along with it.

I’m never surprised by the people who say things like this. It’s like they’re excreted from central casting.

If they would have followed the directions and not resisted they would still be alive. Actions have consequences.

Two conservatives stand staring at camera blankly.

Not only did Schmitt completely clown himself, but positively quoting one of the most bloodthirsty and evil men of the 20th century, NKVD head Lavrentiy Beria, is just wild.

I can’t get over how Republican leadership is a combination of morons and people pretending to be morons. It beggars belief that this collection of freaks and assholes have managed to hammer so effectively at the foundations of civil society.

My favorite car color-wise was this ludicrously loud gold / yellow VW I had. If this dumb society is going to force me to drive a car it could at least be a fun color.

This is an incredibly important point. Every time I've warned of fascism or dictatorship, people have laughed and said that full-blown dictatorship has obviously not arrived. But that's often not how it arrives, fully garbed. It arrives thru steady erosion of norms that you barely notice are gone.

I want to throw something any time I hear someone blathering about degrees not being worth it if they don’t lead to massive earnings. Surely making cash isn’t the only purpose to adult fucking life.

This stuff doesn't even offend me because it's so transparent. Like of course he's not fit for office, but this is like a 13-year-old bully trying to offend me. Could not give less of a shit what this sad, empty man thinks of me.

I genuinely think the rape accusations are a bonus for some of these people. It's transgressive to elevate utter pieces of shit just to spite the libs. It's not like he's some incredible talent, he's just an unfunny dipshit who stupid people think is smart because he has a British accent.

I know I keep hammering on this, but I think it's important: any worthwhile future for humanity requires we see one another's shared humanity. A country that treats people as subhuman has a potentially fatal moral wound, and it should be addressed with urgency. We're bleeding. It's bad.

Here’s Chris Rufo and his podcast co-host addressing “the Indian question,” a reference to “the Jewish question.” That question was whether Jews could be incorporated into European society, and the Nazis were the ones who claimed to have developed the “final solution” to that “problem.”

I don’t know if it’s my imagination, but it seems like convenience stores have bumped up the temperature of their refrigerators a few degrees. When I get a drink now, it’s coldish, but after a few sips, it’s too warm for me to finish.

It may not be the primary motivation, but pushing you to an algorithmic feed rather than your friends helps Facebook mask just how dead that app has become.

I was going to have a productive day today. Instead I: went out for chilaquiles, watched Aliens, took edibles and watched Star Trek IV, watched like four episodes of Hajime No Ippo THE FIGHTING, then watched a tiny Japanese wrestler destroy every food challenge she could find.
