I feel like wanting to be hot is really unfair and stupid and everyone should stop trying to be hot like what if we just tried to be silly at the same rate we try to be hot.. wouldn't life be so much better?

Called that man a “vagan” 😭

Q: Who are you going to endorse in the Texas Senate race? TRUMP: I'm looking at it. I think the Democrats have a weird, weird candidate. Six genders, a real hit on Jesus. This guy is bad news, with his mask from relatively recently. He was a vegan.

Among the crappiest of Trump’s renovations is the teardown of the wall between church and state

Leavitt begins the press briefing: "Could you hear our 'amen' in there? We just had a little loud prayer as a team. In this holy week, President Trump and the First Lady are joining in prayer with Christians celebrating the resurrection of our lord and savior, Jesus Christ."

Aliya Rahman attended Trump's State of the Union address as a guest of Rep. Ilhan Omar. She was arrested and ejected from the gallery for simply "standing up" in protest.

Wuthering Heights 2026 is one of my fav movies... maybe ppl should watch the movie and then decided how they feel? Sexually repressed population? Imo a visually gorg movie, well acted, funny, quirky, and captures the sympathetic position of all the characters, which I found rly powerful and timely.

White men make movies casting their friends all of the time. The criticism here really feels like misogyny and internalized misogyny popping out. Nelly isn't Asian in the book, but is played by Hong Chau and no one is even talking about that. Let creative adaptations live!

If Heathcliff were played by a person of color in this movie, I'm sure the criticism would be that we're over sexualizing him. The target would just move to that. Anyways end rant. Great movie 10/10 imo. Keep making movies, Emerald Fennel.

The U.S. military says it carried out strikes on three boats in the Caribbean and Pacific, killing at least 11 people and again providing no evidence of alleged drug smuggling. This brings the total number of strikes on boats in waters near Latin America to 42, resulting in at least 145 deaths.

As a Minnesotan who has dedicated his career to mental health issues, it's really hitting me that I'll be dealing with the ICE occupation for as long as I'm both a Minnesotan and a mental health person. It's trauma for our community. Most of us will survive. But we'll be forever changed.

The United Nations reports Israel displaced over 37,000 Palestinians in the occupied West Bank in 2025, a new record. The main driver was Israel's military operations in refugee camps across the northern West Bank, but thousands were also displaced due to home demolitions and settler violence.

Watch the breakdown of the videos of an ICE agent shooting Renee Nicole Good. She did not him with her car, she was turning away with her car when he shot her at point blank range. This was murder.

nytimes.comVideo: Videos Contradict Trump Administration Account of ICE Shooting in MinneapolisAn analysis of footage from three camera angles show that the vehicle appears to be turning away from a federal officer as he opened fire.

I just found out if you type "-ai" in your Google searches it will give you results without ai. Still looking for an alternative to using Google Maps if anyone has one. I use DuckDuckGo as a browser most of the time bc you can turn ai off there, but still use chrome for Google meets meetings.

Trump: "It’s a hellhole right now. And those Somalians should be out of here. They've destroyed our country. And all they do is complain, complain, complain. You have her. She’s always talking about the Constitution provides me with – go back to your own country and figure out your constitution."

Santa Fe is now the first city to tie the minimum wage to the cost of rent. The Santa Fe City Council voted to raise its minimum wage from $15/hr to $17.50 by 2027 — but they also added another provision. Future increases will factor in inflation, and the price of housing.

NEW: @propublica.org investigated the Chicago apartment raid where kids were zip-tied and citizens detained for hours. They find: - NONE of the arrested were criminally charged - NO evidence the building was "filled with TdA terrorists." - ZERO legitimate reason for DHS to rappel from a Blackhawk.

You probably saw videos of a nighttime raid in Chicago. Agents rappelling from a helicopter, bursting down doors, questioning brown-skinned immigrants. We investigated -- and found little evidence to support the government’s claims about Tren de Aragua. www.propublica.org/article/chic...
