My 3 wishes to any genie it may concern: 1. To immediately become fluent in any language, spoken and written, that I encounter. 2. To always have perfect health including fixing any hereditary illnesses/disorders.

Democrats are preparing to investigate Trump's agreement to import Russian diesel if they regain control of Congress, Axios reports. Lawmakers urged US banks and several ports to preserve Russian diesel deal records, warning the imports could violate a 2022 ban and fund Russia’s war in Ukraine.

Columbus was just a misunderstood genocidal maniac...

I had no idea that “eat a bag of dicks” had its origin so long ago. Because that’s definitely a bag of dicks in hand there

yearly reminder to people insisting that we view Christopher Columbus as "a man of his time" that *the people responsible for the Spanish Inquisition* thought Columbus was out of pocket

Every movie, song, and book that you love was made without the technology that people who don’t make art are now insisting is necessary for making art.

SORRY THESE ARE LATE I DRANK HALF A BOTTLE OF NYQUILL AND GOT TANGLED IN MY NEIGHBOR’S WIND CHIMES

If you can’t handle me when I’m depressed, you don’t deserve me when I’m vaguely sad

Pisces: If you see a shimmering light in the night sky soon, be not afraid. It’s just your prodromal schizophrenia.

Aquarius: You’re the problematic relative that shows up to family functions and immediately reminds everyone that their lives could be a whole lot worse, prompting everyone to silently give thanks that they’re not you.

Capricorn: People might notice you more than usual today. Probably because you’re walking around town with no pants. Or underwear. Is that a tattoo of Jar Jar Binks on your left butt cheek?

Sagittarius: If this week’s horoscope seems familiar, it’s because your memory is going.

Scorpio: Your heart is in conflict with itself, according to your very concerned cardiologist.

Libra: Your relationship isn’t “complicated.” Your lover definitely meant to cut your parachute cord.

Virgo: Autumn is a time for transition. The leaves change and fall, the grass turns brown and brittle, unpicked crops rot in the field, the world grows dark and frigid and...we're not sure where this one was headed, to be honest.

Leo: The best part of knowing the future is knowing where to look when the slapstick parts are about to happen. And, not to give too much away, but the stars are pulling up their seats to get a good look at you.

Cancer: Consider a change of scenery. Then reconsider. Palm trees won't solve your problems​.

Gemini: Great news! You’ll finally find someone to blame for your shitty life.

Taurus: "Don't Panic" is almost always good advice, but in your case it's probably time to give it a try.

Aries: Prepare for romance and volcanoes. Mostly volcanoes.

Ever since I watched the movie Jaws, I’ve been terrified of swimming in the ocean with a canister of compressed air in my mouth.

I take a multivitamin every day and this [gesturing toward my sorrow] is the thanks I get

me: hey, can we pick up my mom on the way to church? uber driver: sure me: cool, I’ll cancel the hearse

It happens so often it can be hard to even see. Men having the same experience I am, but I hit a place where the attention becomes unpleasant. Inuendos start. I have to wiggle out of something I did not start (cautiously! trying not to upset any dangerous egos!) so I leave, while the men get to stay

Yes every woman has been harassed, many assaulted. But every woman has also experienced invisible loss from moments she avoided harassment. She felt a space becoming unsafe, so she left, while men stayed on. And in leaving, she lost: opportunities, experiences, learning, promotions, even simply fun.

This is the shit that makes you feel insane. By any measure Labour is a profoundly racist party and its racism has an enormous body count. But cos its racism primarily impacts non-white and non-British people, they get to do this asinine posturing and the press lap it up.

Taurus: Don't worry about that nightmare you had last night. It was just a premonition.

Aries: The simple fact that you were tied to the roof of a car is not enough to make your trip to Atlantic City an “odyssey."

De Niro: When that coward, that fucking piece of shit, Donald Trump, tries to take our voice and power away, what do we tell him? Keep your fucking hands off our vote.

Over the course of us dating and being married, my XH texted 3 of my friends--and my SISTER--to tell them he had a crush on them and basically tried to cheat with them all. Over the last year, I came to terms with the fact that *there were probably more that I didn't know of.*

To save money the BBC could make some easy cuts…

Having quit as Defence Secretary over spending, the new Chancellor now applies “military-style black boxes” to his own vague budget, ensuring no specifics leak.

US social media companies are interfering in the Brazilian elections in favour of the Far Right’s Flávio Bolsonaro. Meta is the latest. It’s just blocked the campaign account of President Lula in the final stretch of the election.

👉NEW -- I was a senior British army lawyer. This is the truth about ‘lawfare’ by Nicholas Mercer Concerns about elderly Northern Ireland veterans are being used to protect the SAS from the Afghanistan inquiry www.declassifieduk.org/i-was-a-seni...

Q: Did you discuss the war with Iran with President Xi? TRUMP: We did. I think we're gonna do great. (China has reportedly helped Iran kill US troops)

"RKF took money earmarked to provide health care for Black infants and spent it on his personal security detail" is a ludicrous headline. Comic book villainy.

A Vermont jury convicted a man of attempted murder in the 2023 shooting of three Palestinian college students that left one of the victims paralyzed. Jason Eaton, 51, faces a maximum sentence of life in prison.

Wow.

Hanania has been on a rape apologism kick for months now, and this has not seemed to slow the reactionary centrist effort to rehabilitate his reputation. I wonder why not.

Pisces: At long last your patience is soon to be rewarded! Probably feels good to hear, doesn't it? A little glimmer of hope? Because you read a post online that justifies continuing to do nothing. Awesome. Well, I'll leave you to it.

Aquarius: Much like a turtle carries their home upon their back, you may also find yourself beneath a home: a single-wide trailer, hiding from the cops.
