Kinda flop god pack

The 14th Amendment says that all people born in America, regardless of race are citizens and have a right to equal protection under the law. For SCOTUS to be remotely confused on that text speaks to their racism, not the Constitution (1/3) www.cnn.com/2025/12/05/p...

this really isn’t an exaggeration

The impact of the destruction of USAID is so wide-ranging. We got a field report from one of the poorest states in India, where foreign aid funded "TB champions" who educate and assist tuberculosis patients. Without their help, advocates expect a 36% increase in cases & 68% rise in deaths from TB.

If you see this, post your favorite Pokémon!

If Pokémon was real and you were just an average trainer, what would your team be? (Be as realistic as possible. No Mythics or Legends.)

Ok what the fuck is Spotify’s problem this year? why are you saying it like THAT

This is actually quite brilliant, up to and including the final sentence 🔥

One point that may have been lost: I’ve never seen this ad before. It’s only when I searched for Mexican folk music tonight that YouTube started running it. Google’s surveillance technology has enabled the government to selectively terrorize specific groups in service of white supremacy.

The first strike was also murder. You can’t just up and kill civilians on the high seas and then claim you were at war with them.

Republicans spending 30 years desensitizing the public to gun violence and then wondering why they can't get any mass outrage to take traction over these shootings.

"a single person of this demographic may have committed a crime, therefore we must punish the entire demographic" is a policy response you may recognize from fascist governments dedicated to ethnic cleansing elsewhere.

This is the scandal. Trump isn’t targeting dangerous people. He’s targeting peaceful immigrants. Almost exclusively.

What a nightmare nymag.com/intelligence...

There is a certain kind of Catholic convert who thinks they are more Catholic than the Pope.

the rage that reading this makes me feel. just full 'need to stare into the middle distance because we are so, so lost' stuff.

Charlie Kirk being a glib asshole about gun violence at the moment he was killed by the kind of gun violence he was being a glib asshole about is some bad absurdist comedy shit.

The press: “Kamala, what is your position on updates to section 420(c)69 of the internal revenue code? Too slow, you dumb bitch, never gonna be president.” Also the press: “mr. Vance you’re so dreamy, tell us more about Ohio.”

This is a view from the surface of Comet 67P. The busy particles in the foreground are cosmic rays or bits of dust and ice. The dots moving in the background are stars.

At Stonewall these people would be telling everyone to stop focusing their outrage on the cops because they’re not amendable to change. It’s so stupid.

The waitress gave me sis because???

I wonder what percentage of the country has been to any of these states…. 😳

Evergreen:

BREAKING: Juan Carlos Lopez-Gomez has been released. This is the moment he reunited with his mom.

Research shows increased immigration enforcement in schools is associated with chronic absenteeism, drops in enrollment, exacerbation of racial disparities in student outcomes, and negative physical and mental health among children in immigrant families. on.kff.org/3YhQA7d

I lost my job, my kids have measles, and I had to drive my parents 200 miles to a Social Security office, but at least I know that immigrants are getting sent to torture prisons in El Salvador.

Ahah I'm going to k__ m____ this is Verhoeven shit we live in Hell.

When will the bad news stop coming?!

Migrants found dead at Krome Detention Center in Miami, due to possible starvation and dehydration. The facility, which was a detention facility prior to it being converted for ICE use, has a max capacity of 500.

every person involved in this needs to be in prison

I will never get over the fact that fucking prominent asshole idiots like Chappell Roan acted like our options last fall were so painstakingly similar that it was hard to choose between. That it was hard to advocate to others why it would be important to vote for one over the other.

I’ve fallen in love….

the fact that the husband in this story doesn’t appear to regret his choices at all is mind-boggling to me. tens of millions of americans have linked their very sense of identity to trump such that it overrides every other attachment.

The New York Times is the first to put out comprehensive estimates on the cost of a year without U.S.A.I.D. and they’re higher than I thought: - 1.65 million deaths from AIDS - 500,000 from lack of vaccines - 550,000 from lack of food aid - 290,000 from malaria - 310,000 from TB
