Like a lot of free speech loving Americans today I have this stuck in my head: 🎵”Afroman’ll bring it tooo ya…”🎵 @ogafroman

The Afroman Trial. -Cops raid Afromans house for bullshit reasons. -Steal money, break his door, fuck his house up. -No criminality found whatsoever, no charges at all pressed on Afroman. -Afroman spends the next 3 years making songs that make fun of all the officers involved by name, even using footage of the raid from his own CCTV cameras. -Songs had titles like "Randy Walters is a son of a bitch" and "Lick Em Low Lisa" accusing one of the officers of being a lesbian and sleeping with the other officers wives. -During the raid one officer looked like he was about to eat some lemon pound cake sitting on Afromans counter, Afroman made a whole album calling the officer fat. -The cops get mad and file a lawsuit for defamation. -Afroman turns up to court in a whole American flag suit. -Officers performatively mald and cry while listening to the songs really trying to oversell how badly the songs upset them. -One officer was suing because Afroman made a whole song about him saying he was fucking the officers wife. When the officer was asked if Afroman was really fucking his wife, he said "I don't know". Nuking his own case and establishing that there is a non-zero chance that Afroman might actually be fucking his wife. -As his only witness for the trial, Afroman brought a deputies EX FUCKING WIFE. -The jury ruled completely in favour of Afroman. This entire thing has been a great win for free speech and absolutely fucking hilarious.

1999 – this is built around Chris Rock's classic "How Not to Get Your Ass Kicked by the Police" routine from his Bigger & Blacker special. The meme edit with the "LISTEN UP LIBERALS" overlays and extra clips has been remixed and going viral for years (this CocoFun version resurfaced big in early 2026). Timeless gold! 😂

It’s March 18, 2026. Exactly 5 yrs, 4 months, & 13 days from the day Joe Biden beat Donald Trump in the 2020 election. And Republicans are STILL too afraid to say Biden won the election. And they’re STILL too afraid to say Trump lost the election. My former party can’t be saved.

Good thread on how many people, including liberal women, kept silent on trans issues because they feared being called out by their community, but they'd rant privately to Megan. I hear this too. I know an uber-liberal woman who is a hardcore TERF, but only privately to me.
Megan McArdle@asymmetricinfo

I think Dave Roberts did not hear those rants, because people were extremely afraid to expose verboten views to someone who would deem them transphobic. So when the vibe shifted, it seemed astroturfed rather than authentic. But it was not only extremely authentic; it was the majority view I encountered.

''#1 - Don't hire the Hells Angels as security for your gigs.'' Mick Jagger presents top ten things he has learned after 50 years in rock and roll on his meeting with Letterman on the Late Night Show. That's a humorous list when you think of five decades.

Actually @RichardGrenell, no. When you lose an election and refuse to accept the results, refuse to concede, and then commit crimes trying to overthrow the election, that’s when democracy begins to die. Hillary conceded in 2016. Kamala conceded in 2024. Your dear leader is the only one who didn’t love his country enough to just simply accept the will of the people.
Richard Grenell@RichardGrenell

Every time you lose an election you say democracy is dying.

Donald Trump has taken America, a country the rest of the world always loved and/or respected, and turned it into a country the rest of the world now despises, laughs at, and wants nothing to do with.

If Biden or Kamala had won, and started a serious war with Iran, and asked Congress for $200 billion in the first 3 weeks, every single MAGA influencer would be calling them warmongers and demanding impeachment. Neocons would be happy, but the MAGA influencers would be enraged.
Cenk Uygur@cenkuygur

You should be absolutely furious about this $200 billion ask for the war. I guarantee you if you asked for $200 billion in health care or food for American people, you'd be laughed out of Congress. There's no money for that! But as soon as Israel asks, it'll fly through Congress.

"Keep Feeling (Fascination)" (1983) This was a comeback moment after a rough patch, and it pushed them back into the spotlight. The song hit No. 2 on the U.S. charts and became one of their biggest singles. Do you know the band's name?x.com/calmalgodown/s…

My brother texted me saying his grandson got suspended from kindergarten—for fighting. To make it worse, the kid has a disability. I asked, “Wait, what happened??” He said, “I asked him, and he told me: ‘Granddaddy, all the kids were talking about me. And I told them—I don’t care if you’re deaf, keep my name out your hands too!’” I sat there for a full minute. Then I texted back: “So let me get this straight… your grandson, a deaf kindergartener, caught a case for fighting kids who were talking trash… in sign language??” He replied: “Yep. And now he’s suspended and wants a lawyer.” I said, “For what?!” He said, “Defamation of character. He claims they signed lies.”

Obama opposed the Iraq War when most Dem leaders were for it, which earned him enormous progressive cred in his 2008 campaign even while he was pretty modded out on other issues. The 2028 parallel would be a non-leftist who breaks left on Israel. slowboring.com/p/the-obama-of…
