@downtowndcdude It is called a co-op

Bro what in the fuck

@mattvanswol I am 12 and this is deep

Maybe the people implying that Black people are stupid… are the racists. Maybe the people saying married women are too stupid to get an ID to vote… are the sexists. Maybe the people screaming tolerance, but trying to silence anyone who disagrees… are the intolerant.

@LloydLegalist You really need to get into our Dad Rock Smarch Madness bracket. Rush made it into Round Two but can they make it past Tom Petty and the Heartbreakers?? docs.google.com/forms/d/e/1FAI…

My reaction to Tom Sawyer: unhinged enthusiasm. My daughter’s reaction: quiet suffering.

@fkajack And Mister Rogers!!

lady gaga singing with bad bunny and jigglypuff in one night this bitch cool with everybody

@theliamnissan @mattvanswol I don't know what's more embarrassing: abandoning any sense of morals to become a right wing grifter, or being so laughably bad at it

@mattvanswol So explain the moment you decided to become a right wing grifter

This is painful to write, but I need to get it out... For years, my “news” came almost entirely from left-leaning podcasts and media outlets. The other day I scrolled back through my podcast history from that era and it honestly made my stomach drop. Thousands of hours of my life, just gone. Hours I’ll never get back, the vast majority of it I know now wasn’t even information… it was just propaganda packaged as news. I’m writing this because I want to warn you, because I wish someone had warned me. It’s hard to explain to people who haven’t lived inside it just how insanely bubble-like the grip on your perception of reality becomes. How it doesn’t feel AT ALL like you’re being shaped to think a certain way, it just feels like you’re being informed and in the process... you feel morally superior and smarter than "them" (the conservatives). For me the routine was simple: A couple minutes of CNN with my morning coffee. A “breaking news” push notification from the NYT. Pod Save America or The Daily on my commute. They all said the same stuff!!! Same framing. Same villains. Same moral conclusions from the news. It's literally the right-wing meme of "the script has gone out!" It's so so true. Yeah the companies were different, but they all had essentially an identical script, all corroborated by experts. In hindsight, it's a freaking miracle I ever broke out of it. It's a near-perfectly-sealed echo chamber. And now, as I'm scrolling through my past, it looks like a record of someone slowly being put to sleep. Episode after episode. Commute after commute. Day after day. Just thousands of hours of my life with headphones in, letting someone else narrate reality to me. And I'm sick with regret. Because I know that a part of me liked it. Like I was smarter, kinder, and more evolved because I just knew so much more, and was on the team of empathy! I was wrong. And I can’t rewind who I was in those years. But I’m writing this because I KNOW there are people still living in that trance. I talk to you (yes, you know who you are) often. And I know you think you're just “staying informed,” and I hear in your voice the moral superiority, the immediate reaction to take offense on behalf of some group or people... Please. Please wake up before you lose years of your life the way I did. Because one day you’ll look back and realize the biggest thing they stole from you wasn't just your time... They stole the truth.

@FEEDTHEGODZ @treyyyy__7 @greyxday A book written in 1921 will explain how the Russians enacted gun control laws in the USA in 1968?

@treyyyy__7 @greyxday read the book the free negro in maryland

i don’t care how radical a communist i become the black panthers had that shit on bro

@FEEDTHEGODZ @treyyyy__7 @greyxday …and that is the story of why there are no guns in America

@treyyyy__7 @greyxday black panthers were a tool of the russians which was used to start unconstitutional gun laws and disarm black people from the 1968 gun control act which was unconstitutional

@farmingandJesus @JcScharl All murderers are people

@JcScharl The officer is a person too.

I grew up with Renee Good. We weren't best friends or anything, but we would hang out. I remember jumping on the trampoline and listening to the Backstreet Boys with her. Everyone involved in these viral stories is a real person.

@TheMaineWonk x.com/dril/status/47…

LEFT: IT’S MURDER. RIGHT: IT’S DOMESTIC TERRORISM. REALITY: Two human beings panicked in a high pressure situation where so many things could have and should have gone differently.

@paulg @naoyak Not all stupid people are into crypto but all people into crypto are quite stupid

@naoyak I know people who supported him who are neither stupid nor evil. Warren's minions in the Biden administration alienated a lot of people in crypto, for example.

The US is now doing the kind of things we used to make fun of banana republics for doing when I was a kid. I know not all the people who supported this man are idiots. Is there a point where the non-idiots say "enough is enough?"

@aseertayeem @vocalnoid This is the Pointer Sisters

@vocalnoid wtf is this rhythm?? what were they cooking???

I remembered this segment from a sesame street VHS I had as a kid, and I went to rewatch it and had the worst jump scare of my life

@ajlamesa @SimTulum It was millions, not billions. The only billion dollar Medicare fraud case I know of was 25 years ago in Texas. The perpetrator is currently the senior Senator from the state of Florida

@SimTulum You don’t think the Norwegians and Danes aggressively prosecute welfare fraud, Simone? This was billions of dollars, systematic fraud.

The smart progressive response to the Minnesota welfare fraud is to: 1) demand the fraudsters be punished. 2) demand political accountability. 3) note that direct government provision of social services can be more effective and invite less fraud. The bad response is to minimize what happened.

@6Merican @JoshLipnik > responding to “Canadian musicians had an outsized influence on American music” lol you just put a thing in quotes that no one said You misunderstood the conversation and then got real mad

@JoshLipnik No, I’m seizing on an opportunity to vent about American culture being taken for granted and responding to “Canadian musicians had an outsized influence on American music”. No, they haven’t. The influence has been so lopsided there have been CanCon laws since the 50s.

Remarkable how famous the Tragically Hip are in Canada and essentially unknown to Americans. I don’t think we even have a band that occupies a similar place in American culture.

You guys, I will do this for for $3000 and guarantee better results. Its like a huge discount my dudes. Let me name your baby and save you so much money!

@xgigglypuff "East Chicago" is not a thing "East Chicago" is Lake Michigan

let’s cheat on our boyfriends together

@maniclimited @BalloonedRacoon @kokoo69420 @JPHilllllll We do not spend more every year on homelessness

@BalloonedRacoon @kokoo69420 @JPHilllllll Why do we spend more every year on homelessness and we just end up with more homeless people?

We could literally end homelessness and hunger with this amount of money. Instead it'll go to making slop on Instagram

@skanks17 Where is the good karaoke spot in Charlotte?

Third pic looks like the crowd when I’m at karaoke

@camefromthe @lydiakauppi lol “I’m not mad about the thing that you said. I’m mad about the thing that I said!”

@lydiakauppi This is disingenuous, and I think you know it. The Platonic ideal of the 15-min city is not my objection. The implementation, demonstrated by real-world precedents set and in effect right now, are my (and many others’) objection.

One of the funniest things people actually believe is that “15-minute cities” is actually a term for a communist plan that people will be prevented from traveling more than 15 minutes from home without permission

@Itssan17 It makes me sad that you wasted such a good video on such a bad tweet

We won

@Elementalpod_ @SickoftheSwamp @Strandjunker OK youre boring Good night

@Crooooow @SickoftheSwamp @Strandjunker A few years back? It's 2025, if you forgot. The election was last year. It was three flicks of my finger, and there it was. It's Monday, my guy. At least wait till Thursday before you start boozing this hard.

Did you know? A large part of the Education Department’s job is enforcing regulations and providing funding and services that states cannot or refuse to. — Anyone claiming states will do what the Department of Education does is blatantly lying to your face.
