I love when people who are professionally wrong for a living describe it as being really into "nuance"

Proud to run socials for LA democratic socialist mayoral candidate Rae Huang. We’re in the first big stretch of our fundraising efforts and if you live in LA your donation gets matched 6:1! Come get in on the ground floor of this movement

the greenland thing is embarrassing enough but why are alaska and hawaii even US states. just give those and also puerto rico back, why are these ours

almost fell asleep in an underwire bra and jeans AKA the Cursed Pajamas

always makes me laugh when anyone in TNG asks data how he’s doing and he answers “i am functioning within normal parameters.” damn right buddy, same. aspirational even

why are you making Predictions. have you been alive lately

wikipedia turns 25 today! the last unenshittified major website! backbone of online info! triumph of humanity! powered by urge of unpaid randos to correct each other! somehow mostly reliable! "good thing wikipedia works in practice, because it sure doesn't work in theory" - old wiki adage

From a good friend in Minneapolis: "Target is allowing ICE to stage in their parking lots, use their restrooms, and abduct people from inside their stores - so if you weren’t boycotting already, now is the time." They were staging in Chicago as well.

came across a playlist called garage mahal and i’m so mad i didn't come up with that

Time to post my favorite writing of this guy

hate that “imagine hating me and i’m just [doing something whimsical]” meme. i hate you for not attending to your basic responsibilities and instead making derivative content hoping to go viral

crazy that they made a water fireplace

Hello Tim Cook I worked at Tumblr when you gave us 48 hours to get rid of all the consenting, adult boobs. Up all night at your whim, out of the blue. But you're still cool with Twitter and its CSAM and revenge porn and whatever the fuck this is? Why do you even HAVE guidelines?

Keep Grok and X in the app stores, sure, but god forbid ICE-tracking apps be allowed. I feel like I'm in upsidedown land.

2025 vampire movies: sinners, marty supreme

this is your mission. our pedophile president needs you to jump out of a helicopter to kidnap a head of state and his wife so some oil ceos can make a lot of money. we’ll be watching from a resort in florida that still serves wedge salad and checking how many retweets we get. good luck soldier

it's kind of crazy that there's even any question that democrats are going to do anything about this

2026 is getting Albany to tax the rich to pay for universal childcare. Get in where you can. There are a number of groups currently organizing for this so you won't need to reinvent the wheel.

Blockbuster interview about institutional transphobia at the New York Times that names names of the bigots responsible: A.G. Sulzberger, Joe Kahn, Carolyn Ryan at the top, plus Pamela Paul, Jeremy Peters, Azeen Ghorayshi, Katie J.M. Baker, & an entire anti-trans pro-mgmt splinter group in the union

if you were a cool kid interviewing for dot com 1.0 tech jobs you might have had to be interviewed in a ball pit or on some shit like this

I remember the phrase "they can't be allowed to melt back into society" re: the de-Baathification of Iraq after the war there. Like everything about that experience, the attempt was cynical, stupid, and botched. But there really should be a plan about what we do with guys like these in the future.

six months ago Reader’s Digest asked if they could purchase the publishing rights for this elaborate shitpost I wrote a year ago now wherein I pretended to be the elf equivalent of David Brooks at the North Pole. Thought it was maybe a phishing scam but it’s real LMAOO

OH MY GOD THEY DID

you ever sit and wind down enough to finally think about how bonkers the storyline of tekken is

cardi is extremely vindicated for having that one feud with nicki minaj

what’s a good holiday gift to give your local contractor and/ handyman? truly no one else has massively helped improve our daily quality of life more, especially after the wildfires

If you're not trans, I don't think I can fully explain how important this is. It's so powerful that one of the most circulated science media publications in the world has come out and said "trans children are real and providing transition care improves their lives." That's groundbreaking.

David Brooks, who wrote in the NYT last month, "The Epstein Story? Count Me Out" is... in the latest Epstein photo dump published by @oversightdemocrats.house.gov. He should absolutely be fired by NYT for this. Major conflict of interest that he didn't disclose.

New ballot measure gathering signatures in LA city 👀 A tax on employers with 1000+ employees if the CEO compensation is more than 50x greater than the median employee compensation. “Proceeds from the tax would fund affordable and moderate-income housing projects, street/sidewalk repairs…”

I try to avoid linking to Substacks but this essay is FASCINATING

I hate that every week there's something stupid like an Everyone Has To Drink Pee Now Bill and the alert sounds to CALL YOUR REPRESENTATIVES THIS IS NOT A DRILL and you really wish you could just trust them to not go for the pee drinking bill

The bear is now one of the renegades of the Intellectual Dark Web

tng season 7 has had quite a number of painfully bad episodes so far. let’s hope there’s a good finale

I think the fundamental gap here is that non-creative people think that creative people make things for the end product, when in fact it’s the act of creation and not the end point that makes it worthwhile.

yeah I'm involved in unethical non monogamy. no no, nobody's cheating on anyone else; me and my polycucle just operate a whaling ship.

He must think they are unhoused

They should invent a city that doesn't spend 60% of its budget on cops

indian restaurant getting into the holiday spirit and referring to green chutney as grinchutney

around 40 game developers affiliated with @videogameworkers.bsky.social have gathered outside the peacock theater, where the game awards will take place in a few hours, for a “the industry is dead” demonstration

not sure if i like pluribus or if i just like the cinematography. felt the same about severance. they’re not bad shows but i feel like i’m watching it for the visuals more than feeling any investment in the characters, dialogue or plot

plurb your enthusiasm. phineas and plurb. are you being plurbed?

the problem with getting ppl of every background to finally pronounce your ethnic name correct is that now everyone sounds like an uncle or auntie who's mad at you

floof to bless your timeline
