Is he secretly an American? Because that sounds far more like something I'd hear here. Atrocious.

Look at him, he is the blessing now!

I've been told it's only gay if the balls touch. Being someone without balls, I can never engage in gay sex. This is distressing and I guess I'll go watch Simone Biles looking hot AF to make myself feel better.

[DeSantis] then added, “The minute you go into these other things where all of a sudden people get elected district attorney and they release criminals, or they refuse to prosecute criminals, crime goes up. Well, actually, statistics don’t go up, because what they start doing, they stop reporting crimes. So they say, ‘Oh, this crime is down all these cities, and everyone’s scared to walk down the street.’ And no, it’s not that crime is down — it’s that the reporting is down. Because first of all, if you get mugged in some of these places, it’s not even worth reporting it. There’s never going to prosecute somebody for that.”

So he makes a completely unsubstantiated statement regarding crime, then attempts to back up his claim with another unsubstantiated one regarding crime reporting. Makes perfect sense. 🙄

I am glad some politicians and the media are finally starting to call out this type of shit as what it is: weird. We've been living in bizarro world for almost a decade and it's about time the people in power got loud about calling out how fucking weird everything has become.

I like this much more than I feel is appropriate for a political pun, but I'm gonna continue liking it regardless.

I love this question! This made me really happy. My favorite has always been (and remains) the brontosaurus. (Probably can blame "The Land Before Time" for its influence.)

I remember in the early/mid-90s being corrected that brontosaurus wasn't a dinosaur species, but was actually the same as apatosaurus. Being a stubborn child, I refused to accept this and always considered the brontosaurus, not the apatosaurus, my favorite. I felt so vindicated when the study came out in 2015 that brontosaurus and apatosaurus weren't the same.

Perhaps that's why I still stubbornly refuse to let go of Pluto: the minute hope that my favorite planet will be recognized again someday. Alas.

“I knew there was a palace coup going on,” [Trump] said referring to Democrats’ efforts to convince Biden to drop out of the race.

So...recognizing that he's not the only one who gets the monarchical powers SCOTUS created? Unintentional, I'm sure, but Harris' team could make some biting responses to this, too.

I just figure I have to get the link anyway if I want to read it; why not save others the time? :)
