  • That’s a great idea if the goal is to make sure I don’t shop at CVS anymore.

  • Prosecutors have asked a judge to give the Democrat 15 years behind bars for crimes that include acting as an agent of the Egyptian government.

    Menendez’s lawyers say he deserves less than two years in prison, citing his decades of public service

    Public service to who, exactly? Egypt? Yeah, that’s kind of what this is all about. “Your honor my client deserves a slap on the wrist because he’s guilty as fuck.

  • Mr Milan said his museum had only sent the information to the local press but the discovery has sparked global interest. "This is the world's most famous piece of puke ever," he said

    Breaking news: Donald Trump threatens massive tariffs on Denmark unless they give him their cool fossilized vomit.

  • It’s really funny that they keep accusing everyone else of making things up when they don’t even have the basic details correct, like the fact that his show aired in the morning and not during primetime. It’s literally in the second sentence. But reading comprehension doesn’t appear to be their strong suit.

  • Well, make up whatever you want then. Who actually gives a fuck? Acosta probably pissed off someone and got shoved off his primetime slot.

    It’s amazing what kind of basic information about a news story you can learn when you take two minutes to read the article. You know, like what time his show actually aired. (Hint: it wasn’t primetime)

    So once again, the only person making things up here is you.

  • I hate to be the one to let you in on this, but people lie.

    I hate to be the one to let in on this, but TV ratings are publicly verifiable. The only person making things up here is you.

  • ”the Siberia of television news"

    That’s an apt description of the timeslot. For example MSNBC doesn’t even bother with midnight programming, they just start rebroadcasting their primetime lineup. Acosta would’ve been going up against a rebroadcast of All In with Chris Hayes.

    Even Brian Williams got a 10pm weekly show on NBC after he was ousted from the main NBC News desk and he was actually ethically disgraced. This was an obvious insulting move meant to push Jim Acosta out the door to placate Trump.

  • He wasn’t all that smart. Mein Kampf is the poorly written ranting of a narcissistic lunatic with a grudge against the world. Sound familiar? The biggest difference between Hitler and Trump is that Hitler didn’t hire a ghost writer to dream up his shitty manifesto/autobiography out of thin air.

    But based on the fact that the modern GOP thinks Trump is a genius sent by god I’m not surprised they’ve drastically overstated Hitler’s intelligence too.

  • CNN says its decision to move Acosta out of the daylight and into a time slot to begin at midnight Eastern time had nothing to do with politics.

    Uh huh… it’s just a crazy coincidence that CNN happened to decide to hide their chief domestic correspondent in a midnight timeslot a week after Trump retakes office. It’s not a cowardly act of political subservience at all!

  • Yeah, it breaks my heart knowing for a lot of kids, these free school lunches or breakfasts are the only dependable meals they have. Feeding hungry kids is the kind of thing I want my taxes being used for. Suggesting kids need to pull themselves up by their bootstraps and get jobs if they want to eat is cartoonishly evil. They’re already working. School is their job.

    I’ve spent my whole life hearing that the US is the greatest country in the world… but I guess I’m just not rich enough to have enjoyed any of those supposed benefits because they sure aren’t trickling down to us common folk.

  • No way. Those look like full sized slices, if this were actually a work related pizza party they would’ve gone and sliced everything in half so they could get away with ordering half as much pizza. Oh and they get breadsticks and those delicious orange peanut butter crackers too?! If anything prison sounds like a step up.

  • Republicans when a private business decides to poison a local water source: crickets*

    Republicans when a private business decides to operate an inclusive workplace: WE MUST STOP THIS EVIL!

  • Octopus. It’s a water animal.

  • You don’t get to decide how other people feel and respond to the issue.

  • It seems like a good alternative but I honestly haven’t used it enough over the last two weeks to feel comfortable recommending it to people yet. Sorry I can’t be more helpful, but there’s a free tier so there’s no downside in giving Tuta a shot for a bit.

  • Yep, I moved to tuta the day Andy decided to out himself as a MAGA dipshit. The only way I’d go back is if he resigns or gets forced out. At the absolute minimum Andy Yen has shown extremely poor judgement in claiming Republicans are the party concerned with people’s digital rights. That tells me he fundamentally does not know what he’s talking about, and I do not trust Proton under his leadership anymore.

    As a side note, If anyone’s looking for a VPN alternative, I highly recommend Mullvad.

  • Well that’s a pretty fucking ridiculous definition lol.

  • now he's having to become a sci-fi author to keep the con cooking.

    Dude thinks he’s Asimov but anyone paying attention can see he’s just an L Ron Hubbard.
