Corporate is using AI slop art in a mandatory training and I want to scream

BREAKING: Republicans caved to Democrats, finally passing a bill to end the DHS shutdown without additional funding for ICE. Democrats have been clear since the start: No blank check for ICE. This bill now heads to Trump's desk.

I would vote

"Three young Barn Owls looking out of the quatrefoil of a church in North Norfolk."

If God, the source of all being, actually thought that being gay was a sin, then why does making out with multiple cute boys in one evening out on the town? Yeah, checkmate evangelicals

"Are you on social media? Do not delete your account. Are you off social media? Do not get an account. But if you post you do not sin, and if a person with no social media joins, she does not sin. Yet those who post will experience distress in this life, and I would spare you that."⚓️🕯️

God forbid a Hungarian has an ethnonym in this economy

do you want "Catholicism but american" we invented that, it's called Episcopalianism and it's even more woke. all the priests are lesbians. good luck

Gus exited his cave this morning and we accidentally started a new religion.

We live in an era where factual recounting of leading figures’ (Musk, Trump, Hegseth) words and actions plus the most rudimentary dot connecting sounds incredibly evil, so many people assume it can’t be true, or don’t want to deal with the implications of it being true, and therefore simply do not.

At this time every year I must draw your attention to the demon who appeared to have the misfortune to be standing by the door and was squished looney-tunes style when the harrowing commenced

Was today years old when i learned Jane Krakowski (of 30 Rock fame) was Wanda in the Chick's Goodbye Earl music video

Right after they finish with trans youth, their moving on to target youth with ADHD and autism to satisfy their austerity driven eugenics project. They don't even dignify us with new talking points.

Absolutely incredible watching them run the same playbook on children with ADHD and autism that they did on trans youth.

this is true but the problem isn't the posters, it's that the team hates the users and hates running a social network. when was the last new feature people actually wanted? we got Attie instead. give us group DMs. give us images in DMs. give us private accounts. do things the user base wants.

You know whose fault it actually is that bluesky is dying? the reply guys, who consistently let down power users with substandard riffs and slightly off-topic GIFs

A brilliant lefty church move would be to collect a fund that would pay PTO for those in a congregation who don’t have it so they can observe the Triduum

It felt particularly profound last night, against the background of news of war and political machinations, to again hear Jesus’ words of love and imitate his action of washing feet. ⚓️

1. lol, and also lmao 2. guess he's given up on his "fire nobody, it's a sign of weakness" policy now that he is actually weak 3. this may become a rotating door, because nobody he puts here can deliver what he wants (successful prosecutions of his enemies) 4. lol, and also lmao

I've said this recently, but the mainline has not entirely reckoned with the sheer weight of the generation-wide propaganda program instigated by evangelicals - at all levels of evangelicalism - who taught our culture that mainline churches are "not real churches" and told outright lies about them

In the club meditating on why the concept of "deserving" is morally bunk AMA

They may not start out as death camps, but they become death camps all the same.

"The case is a very funny illustration of what can happen when cops, who as a general rule rarely face consequences for their actions, manage to cross a person with plenty of time, a sizable social media following, and a smooth baritone."

You can continue to absurdly obfuscate like this, but accusing half of Congress of being under Israel’s thumb, conflating all American Jewish groups with AIPAC, and seeing AIPAC as the secret puppeteer of politics is both increasingly common in left spaces and deeply antisemitic

What the fucking fuck

Istg if the US invades and occupies Iran for a decade and some of y'all switch from opposing an obviously, unjust war to "we broke it, we bought it" or "we have to finish the mission" when the Democratic president tries to pull out Istg I will haunt you

Much like the "lab leak theory" of covid, "the Jews" is another racist conspiracy to absolve Trump of responsibility for being an abject dipshit.

Good for you Panchito

PLEASE stop leaving mostly full water bottles around at gay events! That could go to a perfectly good AI data center!

Just wrote my first ever emojipasta and honestly? This is the most satisfying thing i've done in a while. Normally I just share them but the complements I'm getting mean i gotta start making more

Pretty crazy how important the blockade of a trade route is right now

A decade ago Miike Snow released greatest music video ever made and I feel like the world has just forgotten about it youtu.be/P_SlAzsXa7E

Angrily demanding to speak to the manager of Iran would probably be more productive if you didn't kill said manager's entire family first.

Delete this. In the Silmarillion they explain that he has an experian score of 860

Post your favorite Lord of the Rings character. Wrong answers only.

It really puts on display how thin the veneer of homonationalism and rainbow capitalism were that the West is so concerned about access to the Strait of Hormuz when there's a perfectly good Cocksucker of Hormuz available for traffic

*Puts on theatre major hat* It's actually Bunraku because Trump is just being puppeteered by Stephen Miller.

They understood it because they helped create it. James Dobson’s advice was peddled by Jeffrey Epstein for a reason. So. You do *not* need to "hand it" to evangelicals or purity culture for anything.

Justin Timberlake and Britney Spears' vocal coach went to my (nondenominational) church, for instance

ICE must be annihilated is the moderate position

Hegseth needs to stand trial after this as a war criminal. Between this attack and the girls' school, there's no ambiguity. He is responsible for mass murder and must be held accountable.

Allowing Trump to use the cia to kidnap a foreign leader and then hand pick their replacement was obviously going to lead to this. He now believes he has the right to dictate every country’s leader. The only real remedy is impeachment.

ICE operates unlawfully. They are outside the law, therefore they are not considered law enforcement. You can simply ignore their orders and defy their agenda. Their legitimacy isn't recognized anymore.

"The Islamists oppose women getting an education," I mutter, as I aim my missile at the girls school

The morally bankrupt Trump administration has partnered with another morally bankrupt authoritarian to declare an unprovoked war on Iran, already killing scores of civilians. We need an immediate vote from Congress on a War Powers Resolution. Then articles of impeachment.
