In 2021, the number of schoolchildren killed by guns was equivalent to driving a school bus at capacity off a cliff every single week. It's only gotten worse since then. It's the guns.

Rocky Mountain Rain Shadow. Can't do much agriculture without water. Less farming = less population growth in the area = less population density = fewer cities.

Oh god, fuck all the way off. Way to look at something in the simplest possible terms and tell yourself there can't conceivably be anything more complex behind it. GLP-1 agonist drugs do a LOT of things, including adjusting some brain chemistry that relates to hunger.

My sister described ozempic to me and uh, forgive me, but it kinda seems like they managed to manufacture anorexia.

The "Reply All" should have a pop-up confirmation where the user has to type "Yes, every single person in on the original email needs to see my response." verbatim before it'll send. People cannot be trusted.

Simone Biles being the GOAT, winning Gold medals and dominating gymnastics is her black job.

Trump knew in February. He knew that COVID-19 passes through the air. He knew it is deadlier than the flu. He knew it is dangerous to more than just our elderly and vulnerable. He purposely downplayed the pandemic. And now, 190,000 Americans are dead.

If you’re a “senior Democrat” that feels this way, you should absolutely retire and make space for true leadership that refuses to resign themselves to fascism. This kind of leadership is functionally useless to the American people. Retire.

One night my university’s gay and lesbian club had a talent show and rather than do an actual talent of Irish dancing or playing piano, I sang this. It was amazing.

Let me say this as clearly as I can: I’m the sitting President of the United States. I’m the nominee of the Democratic party. I’m staying in the race.

More like Smugs Bunny. He doesn't care that I'm there or that the dog is barking through the back door. Does. Not. Care.
A wild rabbit stands alert on a concrete patio, partially obscured by patio furniture. He appears generally unconcerned with the nearby human taking his picture.
