In his acceptance speech, Lula says he will work to regulate digital platforms in Brazil. “Digital crimes must be dealt with like real-life crimes.” This comes after Meta directly interfered with the Brazilian elections, favouring Flávio Bolsonaro.

there must be some kind of bot that adds these completely worthless trivia items to IMDB and I hate it.

I enjoyed Wildwood. The character animation is absolutely untouchable but the landscapes– the trees! I could have watched two hours of just scenery

I’m pretty anxious about midterms. I know the polls are promising but it just feels like too many people are declaring victory too early. Not to mention the bogus legal challenges and other asssults on the process

I feel like we don’t talk about the president calling one of his most important defense contractors a “drug addict” enough

I bet a lot of the Republican pol pushback was from people who assumed Vivek would shrink away from it

Vivek is doubling down and doing a $4m ad buy for the Acton Mom ad which has been widely debunked and faced bipartisan backlash www.axios.com/2026/10/21/r...

All of the CHUDs who said the Vivek ad was bad when it looked like it might be a ratfuck will be using attack pponts from it tomorrow

I think it's within the realm of possibility that a decisive enough wave election will get the job done

this picture from moments ago is of Trump's LEFT hand -- not the one that is usually disfigured (Finn Gomez/Getty)

I don't think Trump is wearing a high-tech exoskeleton robot walker under his clothes, I think he's 80 years old and has never taken care of himself so he moves weird

A good bit would be to go to the airport dressed as a lifeguard and when you see someone rushing to catch a plane you blow a whistle and go "HEY! NO RUNNING!"

the genre of "politician says stupid thing" is busted, they're just trying to out-stupid each other for attention at this point.

BREAKING: President Trump has repeatedly claimed that Democrats are cheating by allowing noncitizens to vote. But the poster child of Monday’s voter fraud sweep — who the DOJ alleges was illegally registered to vote in L.A. — is a registered Republican lamaterial.com/p/voter-frau...

Trump: "The first one is they show you a lion, a bear, a snake, and a giraffe. And they say, 'Which one is the giraffe?' I got a perfect score."

if you were wondering whether Alito's book is an embarrassing crock of shit, I can now officially answer your question with a resounding yes ballsandstrikes.org/legal-cultur...

When you're on a zoom call and everyone has their own AI notetaker bot, do all of those notes look the same in the end or does each bot subtly take the point-of-view of their owner?

I want to show my kids Little Shop of Horrors but I'm kinda worried it will make them afraid of going the dentist

I went to a Nathan Fielder Q&A for Nathan For You season 3 and it was probably the most uncomfortable, awkward event I've ever been to

I hurt my ankle putting out Halloween lights. If I have to get an X-ray that would be spooky

Ossoff: "It's the most corrupt administration of all time & everybody knows it. While the crook president & his crook family rake in billions from all over the world, you pay more for everything... they lied us into war & spent most of the last year covering up for the world's most famous pedophile"

I don’t think Trump is being bribed or blackmailed by Russia or whatever. I think people told him that working with Putin would be bad and he’s really dumb so he thinks defying those people will show independence and power. It’s like when a toddler throws a toy out of the stroller.

the important thing to know about every republican candidate who is pretending they will be an independent voice and not a rubber stamp for trump is that they're all lying

we hired a guy once and on his first day he went to get lunch and never came back

Wow -- Hannity is moving in for the kill: "Why not just say 'I went to Pepperdine Law School and then took a different career path'? Why get into this long drawn-out thing about the difference between a lawyer and an attorney?"

does this work on anyone anymore? I assume you're meant to click it because you think that she's stepping down or something? It's barely justified in the text of the email, which is just about meet & greet in Boston

Ossoff: "In my view, based upon the evidence I've seen thus far, the president's misconduct, abuse of power, and corruption, already exceed any prior standard for impeachment."
