The Above Party

It’s time to repeal shamefully regressive tobacco taxes!

@werneranima @DisgracedProp is the “joke” that south pasadena has had a transit line connecting it to south central for 15 years longer than Santa Monica? hilarious; consider pursuing comedy full time.

@TheAboveParty @DisgracedProp Oh you didn’t yet the joke r*tard

South Pasadena is the new Santa Monica. Take a morning walk and you’ll see why I say this.

I have a dream: That one day, females will develop a moderately coherent theory of mind for males. (if you still think men care about the novel you wrote as a 6 y/o, where you graduated, or your relationship with Toni Morrison, RETURN TO THE DRAWING BOARD IMMEDIATELY!!)

Men think this is an improvement. MacKenzie Scott, Princeton graduate, writing novels at age six, studied under Toni Morrison, founded Amazon, and one of the biggest philanthropists in the history of humanity. Versus.. whatever the fuck this is.

@aidannonx we need a word for people obviously lying about being on GLP-1s. Like yes, you “stopped eating”. We get it. Stop lying by omission.

This is disturbing. He is not being honest about something if his body looks like this. His diet is woefully lean and shouldn’t be, either His is withering away. Why

glad that in 2026 we can all agree: this freakish behavior deserves only ridicule and has no place in a civilized society.

@werneranima @DisgracedProp are you rеtаrded or something?

@DisgracedProp Wow did they open a rail/bus line from South Central LA there too?

@DisgracedProp They’re reverse-gentrifying our (formerly) clean, white neighborhoods. Next thing you know, it will be “Simi Valley is the new South Pasadena.”

@xannon199 you just know the first draft was “shooting skeet”

I will now be referring to gay sex as "Breaking clays in Edgefield County" for the foreseeable future.

@MGSWITHCQC Cool bike! We love hondas over here too. In fact, honda mini-bikes have kind of a cult following, at least in southern california. Check out honda_grom_lifestyle on instagram. Here’s my Grom / mx125:

アメリカの兄貴達、俺はあんた達みたいに自慢できるBBQはないが自慢のバイクならある ホンダは好きかい？結構、ならますます好きになるだろう ポケットバイクのモトコンポだ。小さくも力強く、折り畳んでどこにも載せれる え？知らない⁇大丈夫、今知ったからにはもう頭から離れないだろう

@JDVance has your pagan wife read it? If so, it must not be very effective.

I’ve been writing this book for a long time, and I’m honored to finally be able to share the full story with you all. Communion is about my personal journey and how I found my way back to faith. It will be available in June, but you can pre-order today: a.co/d/0cTpceI7

@DavidFish7 It’s an absolute shame that Jesus Christ left his followers with 66 books for each of them to interpret themselves, individually. Why didn’t he leave us with a Church that he himself established, instead of a book collection? 🤔 🤔 🤔

Why is knowledge of the original languages of the Bible important? Because people like Kenneth Copeland will sneak things like this in out of nowhere. "The Lord will send" in Deut. 28:20 magically becomes "He'll allow" to fit the presupposition that God cannot cause sickness.

@KaiSchwemmer Total midwit - how is failing the breakfast question in 2026?!?! Also there are numerous reasons a video wouldn’t be admissible in criminal court: if it was illegally seized by LE, if there’s no one to testify to its authenticity, if it breaks wiretapping laws, etc.

Brian Shapiro doesn’t know what he would feel like if he hadn’t eaten breakfast this morning.

@Protestia a real Palpatine / Anakin situation! 😳

Bryce Crawford's interview with Kenneth was sponsored by his soon-to-be-launched company, Praise Energy drink, where he expains: "All of our products are prayed over before it hits our website or even offered in stores. We even have a QR code feature where you can scan our drink and put in a prayer request and within 24 hours, a physical person from our team will have prayed for your prayer."

All right maybe this is a time for me to tell my story about Pete Hegseth. Peter Hegseth is close to my age. We went to high school around the same time. He's also from Minnesota (as I am), and our schools were maybe 20 miles apart. In high school, I inadvertently became infamous for "bullying the football players." I was on the Math Team, which is exactly as nerdy as it sounds, and our school (Mounds View High School) had a very strong math team. We habitually took either #1 or #2 in every regional competition, vying with our main rival, the nearby Irondale High School. The math teams collected the best math students across all the grades, and you'd compete at different levels at the meet: the meet would have Algebra, Geometry, Trig, and Advanced Topics sections, and each student on the team would do two events. This made it so that freshmen could compete in Algebra+Geometry, while seniors could compete at Trig and Advanced. Sometimes people did a straddle, like Algebra and Advanced, and Geometry and Trig. Each team was comprised of 8 students. The totals were computed from your individual score (5 problems per event; you got 1 point for each problem you solved). Since everyone did two events, you could get a total of 10 points max. The team's score would be the total of the 8 designated scoring students (80 points max), followed by a team event to try and solve 6 problems jointly (5 points each) for a potential max of 30 more points. The school's total was therefore the sum of the individual scores (10 * 8 individual + 30 points for the team event, for a max possible of 110 points). We were pretty good, in my senior year I was even the top-scoring member of the team, but the problems were always quite hard, and it was very rare to actually score a full 10 points on the individual portion. I'm going over the point system because it matters for this story. As I mentioned, our school routinely came in either #1 or #2 at each meet, vying with our main rival Irondale. There were maybe 5-6 other schools in the region, and it was always Mounds View and Irondale neck-and-neck at the top of the leaderboard, often a nailbiting near-tie going into the Team Event. If you're wondering why it was so tense, it's because they ratcheted up the tension using time limits: all the events were timed, and you could only get all the points if you quickly realized how to get the solution, and then did the computations super-fast without making any mistakes. This left many opportunities for lost points we'd otherwise be able to get with less time pressure. The leaderboard was always Mounds View or Irondale at the top, with the other one right behind them and then often a 20-30+ point gap, followed by the other schools in a middling cluster. And routinely at the bottom, one of the schools was Forest Lake High School, and they'd routinely have laughably low single-digit scores, like their entire total at the end of the night would be like... 6. We'd laugh at them sometimes, like "Oh wow, their entire school scored less than one of our team members, hahaha Forest Lake" or like "Haha, [our teammate] Nathan Doble beat Forest Lake - good job, Doble." So it was a bit of a joke. We never *met* anyone from Forest Lake - there were hundreds of students at the event - maybe they only sent one student, or a handful, each getting 1-2 problems right (the first of the 5 problems on each set was always "easy"). Sometimes we speculated that maybe they had one kid who was kinda good at math in the whole high school or something. One evening, after we had returned to our school after a math team meet, we ran into some football players returning from their game, looking exhausted. I think I said something like "Hey guys, how's it going?" and one of them (this is Minnesota, so the guy was huge) answered, "Ohhhh man, not so well. We lost to Forest Lake." ... and without thinking I just blurted out, "Forest Lake??? Pfft! MATH TEAM never loses to FOREST LAKE!" and waved him off contemptuously and turned away. Later on my friend who witnessed this said that as I walked away, what I didn't see was that the football player got REALLY MAD and looked like he was going to come after me and beat me up. This later turned into "Yishan was bullying football players." (I actually feel quite bad about this - looking back on this, I feel like I should've said something supportive like, "Don't worry, you'll get 'em next time. Math Team always crushes Forest Lake, so don't worry, we got your back." But high school is kind of another world) What's the point of this story? Well, Pete Hegseth went to Forest Lake.

@j_fishback A Brave New World is a far more prescient warning. We’re being overwhelmed with information - not starved of it. “1984 is coming true”: kinda an NPC take. Surprised to hear it from you.

I stopped by Dragon's Den Books in Arcadia and picked up a copy of 1984. It was supposed to be a warning by George Orwell. Sadly, tyrants in both parties have used it as a manual.
