The message begins with "Dear MAGA," in large, bold letters, followed by a statement in smaller text: "Now is not the time to make this tragedy political. Thoughts and prayers. Blah, blah, blah. Isn't that what you guys say after EVERY school shooting?" The text is centered and occupies most of the image space, with no other visual elements present.

The image shows a social media post from a user named "not-to-get-political-but" posted 16 hours ago. The post discusses the difference in reactions between the left and right in America regarding a hypothetical scenario involving a prominent left-wing voice, such as AOC, being shot in the neck in front of a crowd. The post suggests that the right would meme the incident, drawing a wojack and making derogatory comments, while the left would lecture about gun violence and its negative impact. The post includes a profile picture of a purple owl and a "Follow" button, indicating the user's profile page.
โ
The image shows a social media post with two tweets. The first tweet, from a user named "soloh," reads: "A man has died, even if you didn't like him, have some empathy." The second tweet, from a verified user named "Jason Campbell," quotes Charlie Kirk, stating: "I think empathy is a made up New Age term that does a lot of damage." Below the tweets, there is a screenshot of a man speaking into a microphone, with a banner at the bottom that reads "THE CHARLIE KIRK SHOW" and includes the show's logo and website. The man is wearing a blue shirt, and the background features a curtain and a framed picture. The video has 158.2K views, and the timestamp shows 0:57.

The image shows a map of the United States with states colored in red and blue. The map is overlaid with a social media post by a user named annazarves, who posted 6 hours ago. The post reads, "I may start referring to blue states as 'free states.'" The map uses red to represent states that are typically associated with the Republican Party and blue to represent states associated with the Democratic Party. The map includes all 50 states, with Alaska and Hawaii shown separately in the bottom left corner. The color scheme and the post suggest a political context, with the user implying a distinction between the two groups of states.

The image shows a social media post from a user named "dadandburied" with a verified blue checkmark. The post is a text message that reads: "Guys, I understand the impulse, but actively wishing for someone's death is classless and cruel. The Christian way is to demonize their lifestyle, remove their rights, eliminate their healthcare, dismantle their social support systems, implement systemic controls to marginalize and disenfranchise them, encourage violence towards their communities while whitewashing all history of such violence, make examples of anyone who supports or defends them, and then WAIT for them to die! Do better." The background of the post is white, and the text is in black font. The user's profile picture is a circular image, but the face is blurred. The post is structured in a block format, with the text aligned to the left.

The image is a screenshot of a social media post. The post is from a verified account named "amy brown" with the handle "[@]ambybrown.xyz." The post is about the death of Kathy Hepininstall Parks, an iconic advertising copywriter. The post includes a quote from her website, which is highlighted in a yellow box with red and black text. The quote reads: "Why should I write better when a machine can do it for me? Because actually no one can do it for you, because your voice is unique among all the people on earth. Siri never petted a horse's neck. Alexa has never been ghosted by the captain of the football team. But you have lived, your heart is beating, you have suffered, and you have something important to say. It's a human's job to use words, and whatever job you give to a machine, that part of your brain goes dark. Maybe it's worth it when it comes to remembering phone numbers and directions, but when that part of your brain that uses words goes dark, that's a vast area that's very close to your soul. Don't let some internet platform convince you that what you have to say and create isn't worthwhile. Words are the echo of your soul. Honing that echo matters." The post has received 1.7K retweets and 3.4K likes.

The image is a meme featuring a social media post from the account "Occupy Democrats." It is divided into two sections. The top section shows six individuals in judicial robes, with the text "All in favor of fascism..." above them. The individuals are arranged in two rows of three, with a wooden background behind them. The bottom section shows a large crowd of people gathered on a street, with the text "Those opposed..." below them. The crowd is dense and extends into the distance, with some vehicles visible on the sides of the street. The overall layout of the image suggests a comparison between the individuals in judicial robes and the crowd, with the text implying a dichotomy between support for fascism and opposition to it.

The image features a text block on a dark background with white text. The text discusses the CEO of an AI cheating company, Chungin "Roy" Lee, and his views on AI and education. It mentions that Lee claims AI models are destroying education but sees this as a positive development. Lee founded Cluely, described as "the undetectable AI that thinks for you," and believes education is a "doomed industry" that will be replaced by a better system. However, when questioned about the specifics of this new system, Lee admits he doesn't know what it will be. The text also notes that Lee and his co-founder were expelled from Columbia University while testing their LLM, suggesting a possible reason for his dismissive attitude towards traditional education.

La imagen es una viรฑeta de cรณmic de "B.C." que muestra dos escenas. En la primera escena, una mujer estรก depositando un libro en una gran roca etiquetada "RESOLUCIONES" con la frase "I RESOLVE TO BE MORE PUNCTUAL." En la segunda escena, un hombre estรก leyendo el libro que la mujer depositรณ, y dos figuras observan la roca. La escena finaliza con la fecha "Wednesday September 10, 2025" en la parte superior. En la segunda escena, una figura dice: "YOU GONNA TELL HIM IT'S SEPTEMBER?" y la otra responde: "AND RUIN HIS MOMENT?!" La viรฑeta juega con la idea de las resoluciones y cรณmo pueden ser interrumpidas, especialmente en un contexto humorรญstico relacionado con el mes de septiembre.

Ugh day too
No, that's not a typo, though this one is somewhat more understandable, since rest is not an option in my life.
Get up, switch out the dishwasher, feed the cat, cook and eat breakfast. Then wash dishes, cook a batch of rice, wash counter, sweep and mop floor.
Then its try unsuccessfully to deal with Chase Bank, that's going to require a visit. Also talk to Goldman Sachs, unplanned steps towards closing Vik's Apple Card.
Got work in about 1ยฝ hours still, no idea how big that's going to be, the current alert shows only a small route, but the last small route more than doubled in size by the time I got to the warehouse, so who knows.
Lunch'll have to be bought as I forgot to thaw out a sandwich last night, so no food for me, yay.

The image is a political cartoon featuring two caricatures of birds with human-like faces, each with exaggerated features. On the left, a bird with a large, curved beak and blonde hair is shouting "STOP COPYING ME!" The bird has a white body and brown wings, resembling a toucan. On the right, a bird with a similarly large beak and gray hair is also shouting "STOP COPYING ME!" This bird has a red body with blue and yellow wings, labeled "NEWSOM." Both birds are depicted with their beaks open, and the bird on the right has a smirk. The cartoon is titled "AFTER SPEED BUMP COMIC" and is signed by Dave Whamond, with the copyright notice for 2025 Cagle Cartoons, Inc. The cartoon humorously depicts a situation where both characters accuse each other of copying, highlighting a common theme of imitation or mimicry in politics.

in reply to ๐ด Seph ๐ญ ๐พ • • •The image is a flowchart comparing the responses of left-wing and right-wing politicians to political violence. The top half, labeled "LEFT WING POLITICIANS," features a blue background with a simple flowchart: "POLITICAL VIOLENCE?" leading to "CONDENM IT." The bottom half, labeled "RIGHT WING POLITICIANS," has a red background with a more complex flowchart: "POLITICAL VIOLENCE?" leads to "WHO IS IT AGAINST?" which branches into two paths: "THE LEFT" results in "IGNORE IT OR MAKE FUN OF/BLAME THE VICTIMS, RAISE FUNDS TO HELP THE CRIMINALS," and "THE RIGHT" results in "LOWER FLAGS TO HALS-STAFF, CALL FOR THE WIPING OUT OF THE ENTIRE LEFT SIDE." The flowcharts use arrows to indicate the direction of the response.
