Passive voice is poison.

Daylight Saving Time is increasingly hard to notice when my digital devices are like, "What? Nothing happened. We know what time it is."

And my stove is left blinking and screaming, "IT HAPPENED! TIME SHIFTED UNNATURALLY! THEY'RE ALL LYING! ONLY I KNOW! ONLY I REMEMBER!"

Related: Loudly claim elections are rigged. (Or if you’re trying to retain respectability, raise vague concerns about “irregularities” that the public reads as endorsing those claims.) Then when challenged, allow maybe there’s no evidence for rigging but measures are needed to “restore voter trust.”

Yes

Fox News: “We regret showing outdated footage of Trump at the dignified transfer not wearing a baseball hat, thus failing to honor the fallen by informing our viewers that the hat, normally $55, is on sale at the MAGA merch store for $29.99 for a limited time only.”

Oh, you can't handle moving your clocks one hour forward? I move my clocks one hour forward every week. I'm living in the year 2068. Get on my level.

love the ceremonial start in downtown Anchorage!

I only know a few things about the military, but one of them is that when a hat is on or off is very important to them.

There's something deeply obscene and broken about the fact that Donald Trump and Pete Hegseth are bombing elementary schools in an illegal war of aggression, and there's still a sense among the opposition that it has to be explained in terms of gas prices in order to get American voters to care.

Trying to pass off an old video is crazy.

It's not helping much is a wild thing to say, confirms it's happening, and that the value of the assistance is greater than 0.

It could not be more obvious that the president does not care about US service members and in fact regards their deaths as mere political inconveniences. He has more sympathy for Putin than Americans who died because he decided to wage illegal war. Just listen to him.

"Why do all these slurs keep showing up in my group chat?"

I liked it overall and looking forward to the next season, but man I wish the story was advanced just a little more thoroughly than it has been. There was a whole episode where it was just two people existing separately.

There was war because Trump had a feeling Iran was going to attack.
There will be peace when Trump has a feeling they've surrendered.
Specific enough?

Holy shit

I'm so tired of being incandescently angry on the inside while I just try to do normal person things on the outside. This can't be healthy.

Objectives and strategies to accomplish them are woke.

I bet they would say that's doxxing the country.

All it takes to debunk the theory that thousands of kids were pushed into gender-affirming surgeries is to talk to literally any trans person who has tried to get gender-affirming care of ANY kind. It's extremely difficult.

We simply cannot allow these fucking morons to act like they're the ones who truly love this country. They don't take matters of life and deaths seriously. They aren't patriots--they're the most selfish people on the planet.

They literally spent the past 4-plus years blasting Biden over the withdrawal from Afghanistan and how "rushed" it was.

I think way too many people see the question, was she lying then or is she lying now, as a choice they get to make, instead of evidence that she's a liar.

Disgusting use of passive voice alert.

When we say Trump has a personalist view of politics and international relations, we don't mean he sees everything as personal relations. We mean he cannot conceive of the existence of a state, nation, constitution, or government distinct from the person of the leader. The leader is the state.

The point of this is so he can say a dozen different things and see what plays better
