  • Boy, these conservatives are really something, aren't they? They're all in favor of the unborn. They will do anything for the unborn. But once you're born, you're on your own. Pro-life conservatives are obsessed with the fetus from conception to nine months. After that, they don't want to know about you. They don't want to hear from you. No nothing. No neonatal care, no day care, no head start, no school lunch, no food stamps, no welfare, no nothing. If you're preborn, you're fine; if you're preschool, you're fucked.

  • They’ll torture any woman who comes forward to scare the next ones out of speaking up. This is a tactic to ensure that no other Trump victims come forward, and it’s disgusting.

    I’m glad people are supporting her, but the justice system should do more to protect her from this harassment.

  • Why did Nancy Pelosi run again (she’s currently 84)? Why did Chuck Grassley run for a term ending in 2028 (he’s currently 90)?

    I’m 30 years old, and can’t wait to retire. Why won’t these dinosaurs take their millions and fuck off? They’re literally from the generation before the boomers, wtf

  • I get this, and there are a lot of places pumping out low quality garbage that they just don’t care about.

    That being said, staying alive as a news business in 2024 seems extremely difficult. Google + Facebook have fucked around with your business model for a decade, stealing clicks away and aggregating titles and pages (like with AMP). And now AI’s going to fuck everything up, and could fundamentally change how we receive our information.

    I do empathize with people trying to report on what’s occurring in the world having to deal with all these larger struggles impacting their occupation.

  • In a worst-case scenario, if heavy rain affects the Seine’s flow and increases bacteria levels, the triathlon could be changed to a duathlon, without the swimming portion.

    The marathon swimming competition could be relocated to the Vaires-sur-Marne Nautical Stadium in the greater Paris region, which already hosts rowing and canoeing competitions and can accommodate up to 15,000 spectators, organizers said.

    It would be crazy if they suddenly made the triathlon a duathlon, but it does sound like there’s a real backup option.

  • Seriously

    Last year, several men incarcerated at Angola along with the New Orleans-based advocacy group Voice of the Experienced (VOTE) filed a class-action lawsuit alleging cruel and unusual punishment and forced labor in the fields of the maximum security prison, once a former slave plantation that spans some 18,000 acres. The men, most of whom are Black, said they use hoes and shovels or stoop to pick crops by hand in dangerously hot temperatures as armed guards look on. If they refuse to work or fail to meet quotas, they can be sent to solitary confinement or face other punishment, according to disciplinary guidelines.

  • If we were talking about what a pot of cracks the current Republican party is running, this election would be a landslide. Instead, we’re stuck debating if Biden will be an effective 85 year old commander in chief.

    If Biden had gracefully bowed out two years ago, AS HIS 2020 CAMPAIGN HAD SIGNALED HE WOULD DO, this election would be so much easier and simpler. Kari Lake, post-Jan 6th convicted Trump, Mark Robinson. A whole bunch of loons.
