This is just a fucking carjacking. How the hell was he supposed to know it was a state sponsored carjacking. what the fuck are we doing here.

The NYPD just released surveillance video of the ICE shooting (which occurred off camera). Two men in civilian clothes run up to a car with guns drawn. One second later, one man begins smashing the butt of his gun into the driver’s side window. The driver appears to panic and hit the gas.

If you're in these 3 states, *TODAY* is deadline to register to vote. Alaska Rhode Island South Carolina Even if you think you've registered: doesn't hurt to check everything is in order. Do it now. And there's a lot to vote for across them. A thread with stakes on each. ⬇️

I’m pretty sure we’d all be better off if bedtime was uninterrupted and you had just stayed at home looking at AI videos of you with a six pack holding the ten commandments tablets or whatever man

Remember at the beginning of the Iran war when Hegseth was like “we’re done with WOKE WARS. ok???? We’re done with the geneva CUCKventions. We’re doing only warfighter warrior wars now” and then they got absolutely wrecked over and over and over again

I feel like I’m living In a dystopian novel written in 1993 that was rejected by dozens of publishers because it was incredibly stupid.

The five Simpsons lines I’ve uttered most: 5) “she needs premium dude!!!! Premium!!!” 4) “mmm… gummy venus” 3) “I’ll get you for this, Midlerrrr!!!” (Explodes) 2) Skinner in steamed hams: “…. No.” 1) all of Goulet’s lines but especially “Ohh! I’m sorry kid!” after clocking milhouse with a mic

The five Simpsons lines I’ve uttered most: 5) Milhouse: My Dad’s a pretty big wheel down at the cracker victory 4) McBain: Ice To See You 3) You Don’t Get Friends with Salad 2) Homer: And who can forget rat boy? 1) Comic Book Guy: “Is there a word in Klingon for lonliness? Oh yes. ‘Aag-plach!’”

I enjoyed The Odyssey (2026) but I have one historical nitpick. The phrase “Jiminy Christmas” is a minced oath for “Jesus Christ”. As the story is set around 1200 B.C. it is unlikely that Odysseus would have said the phrase even once, let alone the dozens of times he says it in the film

BREAKING: Mitch McConnell has descended into the In-Between and is meeting with Berath, God of Death. His soul will soon either be cast back onto the Wheel or he will agree to return to Eora as Herald of Berath after character creation and importing his choices from the first Trump administration

tired of the "#1 dad" nonsense. if you're a dad, stop treating it like a joke and post your actual national dad ranking. i'm # 492,018, which is actually really high up there, but more importantly it lets me enter ranked dad lobbies where i can get matched up for fistfights with dads of my caliber

Elon Musk’s net worth of $1.1 trillion is five million times as large as that of the typical family. The median American household had a net worth of just under $200,000 in 2022, the year with the most recent data available from the Federal Reserve. nyti.ms/4aL8sNH

"a goofy movie": a humble title. why it's not even necessarily "the" goofy movie. we simply, respectfully offer you this story for your consideration "doug's 1st movie": the hubris of icarus. the unbridled audacity to imply that this is only the 1st chapter of the Doug Cinematic Universe. pathetic

Walking through a big NYC park on Eid today, with tons of celebrating families grilling, everybody happy, kids playing with their parents, I am struck by how obviously wholesome it is. It stuns me a bit to recall the many people in power today who would eagerly vilify these folks for power or profit

Note to democrats: “he has been robbing you blind, every single day” is a kitchen table issue

BREAKING: It's official. The Trump DOJ just confirmed the creation of a $1.776 billion slush fund that can be used to pay Trump allies who claim they've been wrongfully targeted by the Biden admin's ‘weaponization' — including, reportedly, Jan. 6 insurrectionists.

it is important to emphasize that this was *the point*. this was *intentional*. elon musk is a vicious white supremacist who thinks poor african children ought to die, so that the world can be whiter

David Roberts@volts.wtf

Still feel like "Musk and his crew of incels destroyed a bunch of stuff they didn't understand and thereby hastened the deaths of millions of children" did not get the public attention it warranted.

No, Mr. Bond. (Bold text) I expect you to die. (End bold text.) Let’s walk through what will happen when this laser hits your junk. - Loss of genital function — cancel any dates you’ve got, James. 😢 - Death — mentioned this one above, so you know it’s coming already, but just another heads up. ✅

most of my anger towards dems is they repeatedly invoke this trope and then do not govern, either in majority or minority, as if it was true. whereas i actually often do believe it and believe the responsibility to act like it’s true extends past the first week of november

“direct your anger at trump not the democrats” buddy you are severely underestimating the amount of anger i have available to me

Today’s military strikes on Iran — carried out by the United States and Israel — mark a catastrophic escalation in an illegal war of aggression. Bombing cities. Killing civilians. Opening a new theater of war.

like at a certain point it is easier to just run a candidate with popular policies than a dogshit one with awful policies who you have to somehow scold people into pretending is good. far too much work, that
