This is now becoming a daily occurrence.

Elon Musk once again uncritically shares a misleading post and gets community noted for it, this time a satirical, doctored Atlantic article with a fake headline.

[Brendan May @bmay]

This is literally what is happening.

[Ron Filipkowski @RonFilipkowski]

This clip perfectly encapsulates how “normie” Republicans tie themselves in humiliating knots and wrap themselves in a cocoon of lies to attempt to justify their support of someone who they know in their hearts is scum of the earth.

The first time he failed his daddy bailed him out.

Then Deutsche Bank bailed him out as he was failing again.

Then NBC bailed him out with The Apprentice.

He failed at president, but Mitch saved him from impeachment.

Then SCOTUS bailed him out.

Now Musk is bailing him out.

BBC interview with Johnson cancelled after interviewer Laura K sent him her briefing notes by mistake https://t.co/P1wFGQEQWq but why are broadcasters falling over themselves to let this ex-PM, ex-MP, ex-Mayor and proven liar promote his book?

Men tend to choose higher paying careers like doctor, engineer, lawyer, or CEO.

While women tend to choose lower paying careers like female doctor, female engineer, female lawyer, or female CEO.

NEWS! Amazon to trial delivery drones that can autodetect when you're not at home and hide parcels in places you'll never look https://t.co/omDYk2tH6Z

[Have I Got News For You @haveigotnews]

Amazon in the UK has been given the greenlight to test deliveries by drone. So instead of packages being left behind the bins they'll now be dropped from a great height behind the bins

10 great quotes from the British philosopher and humanist Bertrand Russell

1) 'Remember your humanity, and forget the rest.'

2) 'The good life is one inspired by love and guided by knowledge. Neither love without knowledge nor knowledge without love can produce a good life.'

3) 'A good world needs knowledge, kindliness, and courage; it does not need a regretful hankering after the past or a fettering of the free intelligence by the words uttered long ago by ignorant men.'

4) 'Three passions, simple but overwhelmingly strong, have governed my life: the longing for love, the search for knowledge, and unbearable pity for the sufferings of mankind.'

5) 'The only thing that will redeem mankind is co-operation, and the first step towards co-operation lies in the hearts of individuals.'

6) 'The whole problem with the world is that fools and fanatics are always so certain of themselves, but wiser people so full of doubts.'

7) 'Love is wise. Hatred is foolish. In this world, which is getting more and more closely interconnected, we have to learn to tolerate each other. We have to learn to put up with the fact that some people say things we don't like. We can only live together in that way. But if we are to live together and not die together, we must learn a kind of charity and a kind of tolerance, which is absolutely vital to the continuation of human life on this planet.'

8) 'Men tend to have beliefs that suit their passions. Cruel men believe in a cruel God and use their belief to excuse their cruelty. Only kindly men believe in a kindly God, and they would be kindly in any case.'

9) 'Mankind are faced with a clear-cut alternative: either we shall perish, or we shall have to acquire some slight degree of common sense.'

10) 'The secret of happiness is this: let your interests be as wide as possible and let your reactions to things and persons that interest you be as far as possible friendly rather than hostile.'

A summary of the state of global politics today:

A billionaire-backed spectacle, dominated by those who are immoral enough, to take advantage of those who don’t know any better.
