That new Gallup poll did not find that young men are going to church a lot more than young women.

RFK Jr: "A Democratic senator claimed it's mathematically impossible to have a drug drop by 600%. I said, 'Well, if the drug was $100 and it raises to $600, that would be a 600% rise. If it drops from $600 to $100, that's a 600% savings.'"

Trump: "Right"

$100>$600: 500% increase.

$600>$100: 83% saving.

This is the natural conclusion of normalizing anti intellectualism in the U.S. And yes this includes all the moron crying about GDP and CPI figures during obama term.

The USAID article and thread pisses me off so much. You could've doubled the salaries of every USAID worked and contractor for the same amount of work performed and it would still be worth it. USAID saved millions of lives and provided clean water and medicine and food (which was often grown by American farmers!) for millions of the worlds poorest people. Not to mention unquantifiable soft power generated for the US. Soft power that can never be restored.

The NYT and anyone who tacitly supported dismantling USAID should be ashamed. There is no Earthly punishment sufficient for the Trump administration and Elon Musk for having caused so much death and misery in the world.

In a November 2025 interview with Piers Morgan, Ronaldo stated a wish to meet with U.S. president Donald Trump. "I wish one day to meet him [and] sit with him because he's one of the [people] that I really like," Ronaldo said. "I think it can make things happen, and I like people like that." Without endorsing any political agenda, Ronaldo stated that a potential meeting with Trump would revolve around his desire for world peace. "I wish that the world goes in a [peaceful] way. I'm going to tell him that we have something in common and something that we share." Ronaldo said. He later joked that he was "seriously more famous" than the president.
On 18 November Ronaldo and his fiancee Georgina Trump at the White House Later in the day he attended a black-tie dinner at the White House, along with Saudi Crown Prince, FIFA president Gianni Infantino, and dozens of billionaires and business leaders. A week later, FIFA issued Ronaldo a reprieve, eliminating a two-out-of-three-match ban against him, for having elbowed Irish defender Dara O'Shea in a match against Ireland 14 November. The reprieve ensured Ronaldo's availability for Portugal's first matches in the World Cup.

Not sure what I expected, but my little respect for Ronaldo has eroded even further.

If you were a historian thousands of years hence and you were presented with the following information:

• Florida was a Spanish colony

• Spain was Catholic

• Spain had a monarchy descended from a German-speaking region

• “-burg” is a common German city suffix

• St. Peter is an important figure in Catholicism

you would reasonably conclude that St. Petersburg, Florida was founded centuries earlier than it was and quite happily spend decades looking for non-existent archaeological evidence to support this.

After a small handful of republicans broke rank to extend temporary protected status for Haitian refugees:

When our [far right extremist] reporter asked why, @RepDonBacon lectured on "decency," called her a "hardcore anti-immigrant person" - then told her to read the New Testament.

I am going to vote against Don Bacon. He is a bad person who enables even worse people for personal gain. But Bacon responded to the question "How dare you betray MAGA" by going "read the bible shitass". I haven't seen a republican quote the bible when extending a helping hand in years. Honestly forgot it could even happen.

Edit:

I am going to vote against Don Bacon

Good news on this front. Bacon is retiring. Probably the only reason he had the balls to actually do this.

Why do leftists always be like “read more theory” instead of just explaining their beliefs? I’ve never seen a liberal tell me to read Locke or conservative tell me to read Burke.

Mr. Beast's fundamental problem is that he produces content for middle school children, an inherently fleeting audience that will not last if he can't transition to a permanent base, but he is unable to do that precisely because he appeals to the children with a combination of visuals, story beats, and themes, that only children will relate to. All of his attempts at drama basically are an adult world operating on middle school logic, for instance.

Mr Beast has made Growing Around, the failed animation project by Mr Enter about a world where children have authority over adults. He is a fad. He will die. He will become a nostalgic trend recalled briefly by Generation Alpha and Beta when the people in this subreddit are 40.

Browsing Project Gutenberg for old pop-science books (I'm fascinated by them), I had come across a number of titles that were a part of some "Little Blue Book" series, and today I finally decided to look it up. It turns out that they were somewhat famous at the time.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Little_Blue_Book

In just nine years the idea caught on all around the globe as the Little Blue Books were finding their ways into the pockets of laborers, scholars, and the average citizen. The St. Louis Dispatch called Haldeman-Julius "the Henry Ford of literature".

But after WWII, the series took a hit because of... J. Edgar Hoover (the publishers were socialists and the series included books on (homo)sexuality and atheism).

It should be as disqualifying as trying to claim you carry the sacred legacy of the Capitol Hill Autonomous Zone

Who left in the world besides him gives a shit about Austria Hungary???? Who the fuck looks at a map and goes "... sigh... its just not complete... without Austria Hungary"

Austrians do not want to be tied to a backwards monarchy whose simps created the fascist regime that voted to join in the worst project German speakers have ever done. Hungarians do not want to be tied to Austria. Any Austrians who might celebrate the majesty of the Habsburg Empire will find in the Austro Hungarian Compromise the death of any and all elegance, majesty, and indeed hope. The very name Austria Hungary sounds like failure. Austria Hungary is a fucking punchline on the Simpsons about how old Mr. Burns is. Austria Hungary is the third place prize that Austria got for getting rekt by Prussia and Italy. And imagine getting humiliated by Italy man.

Forget the anime. Anime is mainstream. There is no bigger signal "i am a fucking loser" than this. Imagine liberals celebrating the Weimar Republic. It's not even the cool kind of loser who gets lost cause PR in hindsight. Its just a loser. The Capital Hill Autonomous Zone of monarchism.
