I'm at my local library, just relaxing and investigating some new books when this guy sitting a few tables over ripped a loud AF fart. It was so loud that someone across the room said, "SHHHHHHHH!!!!!" And now I'm laughing hysterically 🤣

US Secretary of State Marco Rubio just submitted a memo to a US federal court stating that he can deport anyone he wants regardless of whether or not they've been charged or convicted of a crime, purely on the basis of their beliefs. Thought crime. It's not hyperbole to notice that the US is fast approaching Orwell's 1984. Rubio has worked quickly to establish his own mini-dictatorship at State. His gleeful canceling of hundreds of student visas, eager participation in disappearances and obviously illegal courtroom shenanigans, and more — it is this little weasel that, if the courts let him, get to decide which beliefs are allowed in the country in the future. So much for the First Amendment. https://www.splinter.com/marco-rubio-tells-court-he-can-deport-people-for-their-beliefs-alone

This self-proclaimed Patriot got so angry when he saw an anti-fascism poster that he just had to destroy it. But despite his best efforts, the sign defeated him. It would be pathetic if it wasn't so funny 🤣 https://video.nostr.build/5563376e3c69a0bd3f06c695852efb26cd7d03dace83fecd30bdb3241794dc22.mp4

Trump’s insistence that the U.S. is being taken for a ride betrays a fundamental misunderstanding of economics that is built on a dislike of other countries and a desire to be the dealmaker responsible for a new world order. https://newrepublic.com/post/193677/donald-trump-tariffs-deficit-understanding

These are some suspiciously well-fed street dogs. No protruding ribs among these boys! 😂 #dogs #dogstr https://video.nostr.build/f38ba6d577d6fc801cc3fe7c86525f998f209bb12df1e2ed32a28db36f8fcf7c.mp4

These two dudes came across a choking raccoon in the middle of the night. Bill performed the raccoon Hiemlich maneuver while the other guy yelled words of encouragement. The Hiemlich successfully dislodged the food piece, and everyone cheered. Raccoon then did the walk of shame and shuffled off to his family. Life is fucking weird. https://video.nostr.build/b60fd69cb3146e196026473cad02ade4fdda54cc7a2455379285989534f30ee6.mp4

Take a moment to enjoy this Chinese man belting out a lovely rendition of "Crazy" by Gnarls Barkley in his village. 🎶 #music https://video.nostr.build/8aa88070094f8ff8ea2fd0a32b8f2f159c0ef6f01d577504969e7707cbaea871.mp4

Check out what happens when a half-inch piece of plastic strikes an aluminum block at 15,000mph in the vacuum of space 🤯

I just finished watching #Adolescence on #Netflix, and just wow. What a powerful show. This is one that's unquestionably destined to win a shitload of awards. Adolescence tells the story of a 13yo boy who's arrested for the murder of a classmate, and the impact on his family who are struggling to understand what happened, and reconcile what he's done with the wonderful child they know and love. The kid who played the boy is a first-time actor who just completely smashed it out of the park. And the man who plays his father, Stephen Graham, co-created and co-wrote the 4 episode series. I've been a huge fan of Graham since I first watched Snatch!, which he starred in alongside Brad Pitt and Jason Statham. He delivered a truly masterful performance with unmatched depth and passion. If you have Netflix, I can't recommend this show enough. It's an experience. Otherwise, you can download all 4 episodes from The Pirate Bay. #movies https://www.rottentomatoes.com/tv/adolescence/s01
