When someone asks what your warning label should be this is a mood...

(I don't advocate violence or go around smacking people btw, I just have an extremely hard stare and well practised eye roll)

I just got served this ad while checking my Instagram and I have been watching it over and over again and I can’t figure out what the fuck this product *is*. I sent it to Jay and he’s just as confused as I am. Help?!

“I take no delight in this sad spectacle, playing out in a building that two years ago was a crime scene. While that violent episode ended on Jan. 6, 2021, some of that day’s elected insurrectionists are still free, still mouthing off, still convinced their true president’s divine right was stolen (forget the facts), still trying their damnedest to destroy the government.”

Why does the media tell us that inflation is at a 40 year high without telling us that corporate profits are at a 70 year high?

"why do you support your tax dollars going to subsidized daycare if you don't have kids" because if other people can't afford to have kids the only staff at my nursing home when I'm old will be a pill organizer scotch-taped to a roomba

The House of Representatives has reached this part of the IKEA instructions on how to pick a Speaker. #speakerofthehouse

Lately I've feeling like I've been duped for buying an EV. Like, I love the car and everything, but I fell into the trap of making myself feel better about my impact on the climate by going electric. Electric cars aren't the magic solution to climate change. We should be building electric trains and other mass transit, not EVs

OMG you guys I went to the grocery this morning and got behind an ancient guy who *paid by writing a personal check* (people still do that?!!) and also only started writing the check after the clerk finished ringing everything up.

HOW DID WE LIVE LIKE THIS?!!!

Oh the rationalizations of conservatives are getting hilarious.

This from Noam on Post.

Ok. This is undoubtedly a stupid and naïve question. But is there no compromise candidate the more moderate #Republicans could put up for #Speaker instead? One who might pull a dozen or more votes from conservative or centrist #Democrats? I know. I’m being silly. But surely this process is even sillier? I’m just a Canadian senator. I need an #American guide on this. #Congress #McCarthy #GOP

Who did this?

“I took care of your clown problem.”

Oh. A few mins into today's ride came across a person writhing in the middle of an intersection. Motorists honking at them. I entered the intersection and tried to help them off the road but they refused. I called 211, the city's crisis hotline. Recording said they had a higher than normal call volume then I was disconnected. But the cops who won't assist in these types of situations got 50 million slapped onto their 1.1 billion budget.

1. @RonDeSantisFL@twitter.com blasted critics who dubbed a law he signed last year "Don't Say Gay"

DeSantis insisted it was a "false narrative" and the bill only prohibited "sexual instruction" targeting young students

We've obtained public records showing the law's real impact
