The right realized decades ago that the MSM was hopelessly stuck in the middle by design. So they started their own. The party people fund the media people. The media people galvanize citizens to support politicians.

A 2 panel comic about child's safety on the internet.

Panel 1 is titled "Before", and shows child Anubi being adviced to by one of their parents, who's telling them "Remember son, never give your real life name to people on the internet". Anubi replies "oke"

Panel 2 is titled "Now", and shows Anubi talking to the internet, who mandates to her "give me your ID.", Anubi replies by saying "I just wanted to see a meme", to which the internet replies "child's safety, give me your ID."

Going up!

A chart showing the number of reported CVEs—security vulnerabilities—massively increasing since 2022. By September 16, there had been 66,000 reported this year. In the whole of 2025 the figure was 48,000

Thanks to RFK Jr, the USDA scuttled a plan to combat bird flu that included vaccinating chickens, because Brooke Rollins “was concerned about whether it would clash with the Health secretary’s anti-vaccine views”. Seems like a good time to deploy the word shitbirds for these government officials.

Because they see themselves as Nietzschean ubermenchen. If they can build a god, they will control the god. Don't think for a second that they would give up an actual ASI for the good of humanity.

The Democratic establishment is finally starting to admit what their voters have realized for more than a year.

Windows actually does defragging automatically for you in the background. Defrag is bad for SSDs or NVMEs though so OSes use TRIM on them, which is something different. There still are Windows defrag tools, but they're a waste. Newer Linux filesystems don't need defrag at all.

"Today, White evangelical Protestants are the only religious group in which more people approve than disapprove of Trump’s job performance (58% vs. 40%). In every other group, more disapprove than approve" (although that 58% is a 20 point drop from Jan. 2025)

I cannot begin to describe what an unmitigated travesty this is. CBS "News" is no longer in the news business. Under Ellison and Weiss, it has become spin room for hire--for those clients on the right side of two utterly unqualified people's politics.

"She allowed questions from Breitbart, Fox News and News Nation." Trumpers only want safe spaces, while also mocking the concept of a safe space.

Katie Zacharia confusing her husband with Trump is some real Veep-level shit.

Not sure Kimberly Guilfoyle has any moves left besides a pivot to anti-Trump Democratic influencer. Ha! But we’re not gonna go along with that, right? RIGHT?!?!

She didn’t spin the news - she tossed it in a blender and forgot the lid.

Honest question: Have there been ANY high-profile men driven from Trump II because of scandal? Because I know it’s not for a lack of male scandals.
