  • Cows are magnetic and it's about time we accepted that

  • Have you ever magnetically levitated a cow? If not, then however magnetic they are, it's less magnetic than frogs.

  • Slingshot is a nice detail 😁

  • She's hot, but there's just too much pressure to make it work.

  • Wait until you see the page that redacted the word "don't". As in, "Don T." Why would that be a term they targeted??

  • How to say "Donald Trump" or "Elon Musk" without mentioning their names?

    Jump

  • Sounds like an automatic thing, so any nicknames or euphemisms that catch on would just get added to the list.

    That said, it all depends where you want to fall on the respectful/rude spectrum. I'd go with rude: "The most unpopular President in at least 150 years" is both accurate and specific to Trump. "The owner of xAI, the world's leading distributor of CSAM and NCII" for Musk. Longer descriptive statements are harder to auto-block without catching a lot of false positives.

  • “This is a f—ing disaster”: Generational Republican family loses its 95-year-old Sawmill as Trump’s tariff chaos wipes out jobs

  • "I lost my job, my house, and most of my friends. My kids won't talk to me, my retirement is wiped out, and I have to pass through 12 armed checkpoints to go anywhere in town.

    But I'm also seeing fewer people putting pronouns in their bio, so I guess it was all worth it."

    TIL that 49% of americans believe the country is worse off under Trump than under Biden. 32% believe the country is better off. 19% say it's about the same.

  • Based on a New York Times/Siena poll of 1,625 registered voters nationwide conducted Jan. 12 to 17.

    The full results are also linked in the article: https://www.nytimes.com/interactive/2026/01/22/polls/times-siena-national-poll-crosstabs.html

    Interestingly (or not, given the NYT refusal to say anything too negative about Trump), the headline numbers may be the most favorable to Trump. Other figures:

    Country is on the Right/Wrong Track: 37/562026 Congressional Race Dem/Rep: 48/43Trump Approval Strong Approve/Disapprove: 25/47 (40/56 with "somewhat" answers)Party of respondent Dem/Rep: 26/29

    And the 19% who think the country is the same as a year ago is bad news for Trump. Incumbents (or close proxies, in this case) don't get voted out when things are going well. People were generally unhappy in late 2024; 19% are still unhappy, and 49% think (recognize) it's even worse.

    why are so many alpha males talking about "male gays"? what is it? how do i improve my "male gays"? is it a good thing? why would they be interested in this stuff? isn't it contradictory to their ideo

  • LPT: it's safe to tune out and ignore anything from unironically self-described "alpha (anything)."

    Musk’s DOGE Failed To Slash Government Spending, Instead Leading To A 6% Increase

    Jump

  • It's still relevant to make it as big a story as possible, since that was the stated goal, we should yell from the rooftops how badly they failed according to their own metrics.

  • I also know a Tad. It's not some cringe 2000s kid, either, this guy has to be 70 or thereabouts.

  • Do you think that everyone have a "mask" that they use to show a different "self" to different people and that hides their true self, a truth they don't even show to their closest friends/family?

    Jump

  • I've always thought of it like a d20. For every role we occupy, we show a different facet on top. Some facets remain visible despite not being the "dominant" one, but others are hidden on the other side.

    No single face is our "true self" but they are all a part of who we are.
