This is what oligarchy looks like: If you're Elon Musk, the richest man alive, Tesla gives you a $1 trillion pay package & Trump gives you a huge tax break. If you're a poor kid on SNAP, Trump appeals a court decision that would have prevented you from going hungry. Obscene.

"The anti-Semitic attack in Manchester was wrong, but Annnnnnnnnd blocked.

Next time you feel blue just remember Stephen Miller can go to prison because he does not have Presidential immunity. Follow me for more life hacks.

As a former gamer, I cannot overstate how big of a deal this right-wing takeover of Electronic Arts is. Are they going to create video games where they kidnap and dismember journalists like Jamal Khashoggi?

First they came for George Galloway, and I said nothing because it’s George Galloway I mean seriously it’s George Galloway how can you be bothered to be bothered about that.

I like it when Paul Thomas Anderson is very clear about the content of his films. Q: Can I expect to see any blood in this picture? A: THERE WILL BE BLOOD Q: Does your new film feature any battles? And if so, to what frequency? A: ONE BATTLE AFTER ANOTHER

We must unite against those who seek to divide us.

Musk has now spoken at a Tommy Robinson rally, an AfD campaign event, and numerous Trump/MAGA rallies. You do the math 🤷‍♂️

“Star Trek” premieres 59 years ago today. “It was an attempt to say that humanity will reach maturity and wisdom on the day that it begins not just to tolerate — but take a special delight in — differences in ideas ..” - Gene Roddenberry #RIP @georgetakei.bsky.social

FAILURE TO STATE THE OBVIOUS. If there was a flat-earth "theorist" testifying before Congress, would the NYT provide the headline, "Grilled by the Senate, Kennedy defends flat earth moves." The issue isn't Kennedy's defense of idiocy, it's the NYT mollycoddling an idiot. Please guys show some spine.

@nytpitchbot.bsky.social has the hardest job in show business

One of my favourite pictures ever was taken 57 years ago today. After invading Czechoslovakia, the Soviets announced there would be a huge pro-Soviet rally on Wenceslas square at noon. Which is when and where Josef Koudelka took this picture.

Slept in my Dead Kennedys tee shirt but the Nazi punks still haven’t fucked off.

NIH Director Jay Bhattacharya, who has spent years promoting skepticism toward mRNA vaccines, melts down over criticism from the American Medical Association, blaming the group for widespread vaccine skepticism because it supported COVID shot mandates. A totally unserious man.

Fuck Chamberlain and fuck Trump. Fuck Ribbentrop, fuck Molotov, fuck Witkoff and fuck Lavrov. Fuck anyone who thinks he can carve up European country into pieces. Czechs have history of bending our backs for vision of avoiding the worst scenario. IT NEVER WORKED! Time to straighten our backs.

I can’t believe I found it. This time I bought it.

Stephen Miller Tears Up As Son Says First 14 Words

Trump thinks he can stop the war by blaming it on the previous US president. It will only stop when someone can blame it on the previous Russian president.

I've lived in D.C. for the better part of two decades. Nearly my whole adult life. Something folks aren't talking about--a giant elephant in the room--is the amount of "brand protection" going on right now. I don't mean fear of Trump or political persecution, although those can overlap. (thread)

“Neither Palestine nor Israel will ever truly be free until their societies are liberated from megalomaniacal men who perpetrate demonic acts in their name,” @yair-rosenberg.bsky.social writes in The Atlantic Daily.

Trying to figure out if he's Tony Stark or Lex Luther delays broad realization that he's Cave Johnson

"Palestinians are semitic too" just means, "Palestinians and Jewish people were both grouped together by some racists at one point." It's not an actual shared identity in any meaningful way.

Barbenheimer, meet Godzelda

I mean... holy shit.
