The New York Times, still the paper of record (or so I’m told) employs a columnist who thinks that masturbation is somehow harmful. (This is an actual thing he said, not some screenshot fake. I think.)
Schools are obliged to teach facts but abstain from opinion and religious instruction. So… they also avoid teaching about World War II, because that might not have actually been a thing? That dude got rapidly reassigned. At least, the totally fake Washington Post says he did. And how can we trust the news outlet owned by some rich dude with an agenda, especially one that can’t even report on a hurricane with any accuracy?
We can all joke about how this year is the 50th anniversary of when they faked the moon landing, but David Brooks is this very moment allying himself with the very reputable Jewish magazine Tablet to try and redeem the wildly antisemitic trope of “cultural Marxism.” Does the Prime Minister of Israel believe in the race “science” he’s been pushing? (I mean, someone claims he’s doing it? I mean, it’s still live on his official account, so maybe that’s actually a thing that’s happening?)
Did Kellyanne Conway actually just ask a journalist their ethnicity? Did journalists finally call the president on his environmental bullshittery? Is the veil finally coming off the Atwater-era lie about the Republican not being racist to its very core?
Did a Nobel-Prize winning economist just use the n-word six times in a single column in the New York fucking Times?
Will Deepfakes make these questions harder to answer and less relevant to ask?
Anyway, truth is dead and so are we. Eat Arby’s.
Cultivating Joy (Probably. These GIFs are too good to fact-check)
A squirrel began hoarding nuts inside this cellular antenna. It hoarded a LOT of nuts. Or maybe that’s just what anti-5G conspiracy theorists WANT you to believe!
Can a bird play peekaboo? Who knows. Could be faked. Don’t care.
Pretty sure humans are dumb enough that this is 100% factual.
