everyone who defends mocking andrew tate as 'being gay' for wearing a purple shirt with the 'logic' of 'yeah I know he's a serial rapist, that's why I'm mocking him' or anything along those lines is revealing that they think being gay is more shameful than being a serial rapist.
The maddening thing about this line of argument is that if it's true, you literally have no choice about whether you "accept it" or not. THAT WOULD BE FREE WILL, MOTHERFUCKERS
Are you referring to the Jonathan Ross who murdered Renée Good? Because Renée Good was murdered by the murderer Jonathan Ross, the murderer named Jonathan Ross who murdered Renée Good.
While crime rates are falling across the country, police killings are up. Why is that? Because the job of “security” forces is to, on the behalf of fascists, introduce and maintain violence, in order to to claim and maintain dominion.
With Tom Kean's office refusing to give a reason for his extended absence, we can only assume that he must be suffering from the most common affliction affecting elected Republicans -- a crippling addiction to sex-trafficked children.
Saturday marked 100 days since Rep. Thomas Kean Jr.’s last public act. The congressman has missed 135 House votes during his absence. During that time his office has released statements, attributed to Kean, indicating he is under medical care for an undisclosed health condition.
In 2016, Leslie Stahl interviewed Trump and questioned him about his constant attacks on the press and why he did it.
Trump replied: "I do it to discredit you all and demean you all so that when you write negative stories about me no one will believe you"
THE. MORE. YOU. KNOW. 💫
Cops (sent by Democrats!) assaulted and arrested completely peaceful protesters tonight at Delaney Hall. Zero coverage from any major media outlet. And tomorrow they’ll probably call it another “clash” and quote state officials rationalizing it in the name of keeping the protesters safe. For shame.
I am not famous or even moderately successful, but the way it's gone in the last 24 hours I wanted to get out ahead of any potential announcements from Freedom 250
As a science fiction writer I really fucking resent tech bros for ruining the phrase "artificial intelligence." 80 years of it being all about cool androids and interesting computers destroyed by five years of "Spicy autocorrect making everything shittier for money." NEVER FORGIVE.

The message shouldn't be "taxes are bad," it should be that you should get something for them, it's your money, it shouldn't be going to some rich dipshit's Dr. Claw-ass ballroom or into the pockets of J6 child molesters
I envy you the ability to alter clothes! I can hem and sew pillows and patches and reattach buttons, but complex seams go badly, and it's low enough on my list of "skills to acquire" that I probably will never get there.
In 1991, "Teen births have crashed since 1991" was literally the future headline that almost all public policymakers were going for. Teen pregnancy was considered a crisis!
Trump's DOL just proposed opening 401(k) plans to volatile private equity and crypto investments.
Both industries have given millions to Trump's ballroom — and Trump's family leads a multi-billion dollar crypto empire.
He's endangering YOUR retirement to line HIS pockets.
I assure you that if 8 million right leaning protesters had turned out against Obama it the NYT would have given it banner treatment eg POPULIST REVOLT
ICYMI: The Trump administration is reportedly receiving millions of immigration applications, pocketing the hefty fees, and never processing the applications.
It’s collected over $1 billion in fees so far.
Where is the outcry over this fraud and abuse?
Heather Cox Richardson has a larger audience than almost any dudefluencer. More informed. Better values & policy preferences. And yet there are no profiles, no elevation or lionization, because there's *nothing* US media is less interested in than middle-aged lib women. No diner interviews for them.
I was made to feel guilty for existing for 30 years, until I realized I wasn’t the reason the adults in my life sucked. Little Johnny can handle having a conscience.
It is quite telling that since the horrific story of Cesar Chavez re: sexual abuse broke earlier this week and calls to change the names of schools and other public spaces named in his honor, not one conservative voice has stepped forward to object that this would be tantamount to erasing history.
The orange felon and his regime of disgusting criminals will continue to bomb Iran and other countries as it serves them well to keep the Epstein Files from being the main focus.
Never stop talking about the Epstein Files.
And so many do protest.
The mainstream media doesn’t really cover protests. Don’t take what you see there as representative of reality.
Protests are happening in major cities every single day. Rain or snow.
All ages, all walks of life, show up. Even in very red areas.
If we made the green energy transition this war would be unthinkable and these authoritarians wouldn’t be in power — not in the US, not in Iran, not in Saudi Arabia, not in Russia. Hydrocarbons are killing our freedom and just plain killing us.
