For the ARC, these federal contracts have been lucrative. According to government spending records, the company has received at least $600,000 from federal contracts so far in 2025, and about $700,000 last year.

I don't know why I was expecting more. US citizens should probably start unmasking who the people making decisions behind these companies are, who would sell out this kind of data on others--all for such an inconsequential amount of money.

I don't know how many times I've made this comment but it feels like a lot. The more you use a word the less it means something. How unoriginal do you have to be at writing headlines in 2025 to use a word as meek as "slams."

It's laughable in this context especially. Trying to phrase it like this guy has gotten any kind of consequence for his toddler-from-hell persona.

Look at these toddlers in skin bags.

Every time I see this I think of Carl Sagan. The guy was a wordsmith.

That looks like my desktop wallpaper from when I was 12.

I think there's truth in it either way. Although I can't think of many things only men like, expanding it to "anything dominated by an overwhelming proportion of men to woman" still works. I think they're more cringe than uncool though.

"Stunning" is such a sad word to use in this context.
