Question, so if Super Mario Brothers tells us that flowers make plumbers throw fire at turtles, and science says that plumbers actually fix pipes in exchange for money…can anyone explain it?

Threads is where the conversation is happening

My calendar (and recent letter of rec writing spree) reminds me it is that time of year to wish for violent death to happen to programs that require those stupid fucking rankings. Those programs that have eliminated them are doing the lords work.

I don’t think that the only tool to improve our public discourse should be random private firms filing suit, over harm to their profits, in Delaware court.

so RFK Jr was using malign foreign agents to conduct HHS sponsored research?

(chef's kiss) perfection!

Yep, that's the A-Z of what's wrong with this.

The problem is that we have yet to hear about any benefits of AI

I don't trust people who make part of their online identity always coming to the defense of anyone accused of rape.

This is a weird position to take even among theologically illiterate evangelical powermad lickspittles.

My man looks like he's cutting an ad for a new veneer-friendly toothpaste called White Replace-Mint.

Dig deep, Pitchbot. You need to channel some Kafka to keep up with the vast and unrelenting moronity that now governs us.

No matter what metric you use, Republicans have been worse for the economy than Democrats for a century now. And yet they’ll *still* point to the latest mess they created as an argument to elect them again. And half the media will happily help carry their water for them.

I'm sure I'm like the millionth person to make this point, but if I were a strong, independent woman who took pride in her successful career, I probably would not want to date a Republican in this year of our Lord 2026.

For the past ten years, the NYT has been extremely concerned that Republican single men aren't getting laid by hot enough babes. I feel like they do some version of this story every 9-12 months.

As an academic, I have decided to pre-empt AI taking my job, so I am going to take ITS job! I am going to start hallucinating, lying to my students, and drinking 700,000 litres of water

every dead senator gets a thoughtful obituary lauding their “courage” and then if you look it up the courage was filibustering the Give Medicine to Cancer Kids act

Live your life in such a way that, when you die, people don’t have to rush to say, “Please be polite!”

This is funny until the end where it becomes amazing.

DOGE officially ended over the weekend. One of its crowning achievements was cutting $15M from the federal government’s screwworm monitoring program. Now, the Trump administration is preparing to spend $1B to combat the screwworm outbreak. "Efficiency."

No-one ever expects the Islamic Republic of Japan. Surprise is their chief weapon.

Trump: Iran, a country, very morally bad Reporter: [nods] Trump: but we’re winning the war, we won it already several times Reporter: [nods] Trump: and we’re fighting it very hard Reporter: [nods] Trump: We just defeated the United Arabia Estonians with our hard men Headline: Trump addresses NATO
