This scene from The Magnificent Ambersons hits in a whole lotta ways rn
Pauly Walnuts very seriously telling someone that “it’s called Broad daylight because women light up the world”

Marco Rubio hanging out with Proud Boys leader Enrique Tarrio at the "Shield of the Americas" event, in case you were still thinking it had some sort of legitimate purpose
An ADSBx map showing C104 flying from Florida to Watertown SD late last night.
Ugh. The brand-new Coast Guard jet Kristi Noem was using before she got fired flew down to Florida late Friday -- presumably for the "Shield of the Americas" announcement -- and then returned to Watertown, SD, late Saturday. So she's still using it!!
this made me cackle all the way through
the reverse version of those “evolution of man” drawings

It is amazing youd give up a first term job in the SENATE for a brief stint atop a game show host’s secret police police
Imagine all the cool, fast trains we could have with the billions we spend on bombs.
Reactionaries convinced us for decades that something like gender studies has no practical use in society, and I know many reasonable people also believe(d?) this. It was the butt of the joke for as log as I can remember.
