Trump: "I'm studying his body. I've never studied the body of a man before. It's not my thing. Nothing wrong with it, of course. But it's never been my thing. But I looked at his ass. I said, 'His ass, shit, it's like a pile of muscle.' Then I looked at his legs and I said, 'Man, his feet are big.'"

I only have a bachelor's in history but lemme tell ya: "local elites began to rival the central government" is VERY OFTEN the second-to-last sentence in a society's story.

That $366 million Elon is spending to try and convince voters that Congress should stay Republican? It's more money than McCain's 2008 campaign spent. But it's also, relative to Musk's net worth, the same as a household at the median income spending $32.

I hope this email finds you no matter how hard you try to hide. I hope this email finds you at the bottom of the sea. I hope it tracks you to the bowels of hell. Flee to the depths of space. Cower behind God's skirts. This email will hunt you, and it will find you.

Discworld QOTD, from Feet of Clay “They were men who felt that The Time Had Come. Regimes can survive barbarian hordes, crazed terrorists and hooded secret societies, but they're in real trouble when prosperous and anonymous men sit around a big table and think thoughts like that.”

Oh you want to make college free for everyone? Heheh... even rich kids???? You want rich and poor kids to attend the same institutions without class distinctions? You idiot. You think if rich families use gov't services, it increases the pressure for those services to be good? You cretin. You freak.

As there is a new cat, so is there a new mouse. The cycle is unbroken

Mongabay@mongabay.com

After 20 years of research, scientists have formally described Mus dumbara, a new spiny mouse species endemic to Sri Lanka’s Knuckles Mountain Range. First lured by burnt coconut in 2004, the elusive rodent highlights the island's overlooked small-mammal biodiversity. Story by Malaka Rodrigo.

I just honestly can't get over that Save Women Sports, an anti-trans group could only find five trans athletes competing K through 12. Five. The NCAA president testified a year and a half ago or so that there were less than 10 college level trans athletes. What the fuck are we doing, people

this is getting funnier with every Irish act that drops out of the tour citing their Irishness as a major factor in their support for Palestine

“Singer-songwriter Ed Sheeran has said he identifies culturally as Irish despite being born and raised in England.” STOLEN VALOR!!!!!!!

The one thing I can say is that I’m completely Suetonius pilled now. Tiberius tortured a man with a fish. Caligula declared war on the ocean and made his horse consul. Nero fiddled while Rome burned. They did all of this because they were insane and bad people.
