The question of who gets blamed for a shutdown isn't just a matter of who voted for what. It's that when a shutdown hits, it's a matter of who can be seen as trying to help during a hardship and who uses the hardship to their advantage. And Republicans just enjoy hurting people. It's that simple.

The very idea that the man who could write this paragraph would support Musk's valorisation of 'hard men' is for the birds. And ironically Samwise Gamgee is actually one of the 'hardest men' in fiction, but largely because he is the exact opposite of everything the reactionaries yearn for.

Your ability to eat should not depend on your productivity Your ability to get healthcare should not depend on your productivity Your ability to get housing should not depend on your productivity Saying “be more productive!” To those who are struggling devalues human life. It aids fascism.

I know it’s too much to expect them to know their history, but if the American Revolution had a motto, it definitely would not have been “immigrants go home.” It would have been “get your fucking soldiers out of our cities.”

Friendly Reminder Sick Shit💩💩💩 This is how far we've fallen

It’s too bad only farmers are people and not librarians or artists or healthcare workers or researchers.

The tragically un-reckoned-with truth is, the President of the United States has, almost certainly, RAPED. CHILDREN. Really think about what that means. A child rapist is POTUS. The world is so twisted and backwards.

#TRuthWarriors about ripping down the East Wing without so much as a warning or a by-your-leave "i swoop right in on them. i don't ask. When you're a celebrity they let you do that." #TrumpRapingAmerica yes, Trump is raping America. America is being raped before our eyes by Russian dogs #NoKings

Capitalism must be destroyed so humanity can live.

Okay sweet darlins! It’s Friday night and I need everyone to push pause, grab your partner and let off a little steam. We need to clear our minds, bodies & souls after another week of the Pedo-President & his 🐂💩 administration! Shall we dance? 💃🏽 🕺🏽🪩 #SheShed #Pinks youtube.com/shorts/ARYbU...

Our society punishes and rewards exactly the wrong things.

The same question applies whether you're attacking the concept as a democrat or a republican: the fuck do you mean by "woke"? Do you even know?

Fuck this Nazi shit. Your work is not your value.

I feel this so much. Exactly this. We're stuck in the darkest timeline.

This 👇👇👇👇

What bigger problems? Fire? The villagers chasing you with pitchforks? Reviving the Universal Dark Universe?

Been doodling some wish fulfillment…

every true crime doc: for decades the police tripped over their own dicks and tried to pin the murders on random people and then suddenly someone called and told them exactly what happened

You’ll notice that the media couldn’t stop attacking President Biden over his age as he was trying clean up the country but they’re perfectly fine with the orange convicted felon bulldozing the White House for his own amusement and gratification. They deliberately failed democracy.

Only 90s kids will remember what it was like before The Shift when our reality was rewritten so that everybody insists that it’s always been “The Berenstain Bears.”

What kind of self-respecting thieves drop the crown? I'm downgrading this from a heist to a caper.

Oh damn, this is just straight up Nazi propaganda. They have fully replaced their dogwhistles with bullhorns by now.

I have an idea.

You know how billionaires end up with severe cognitive deficits as a result of becoming surrounded by yes men who constantly tell them their every idea is genius? What if we made a bot that just does that to everyone. I think that would be a good idea.

If I had explain American history in one sentence, I could do worse than "John Brown was hung for treason, but Robert E. Lee was not."

Cmon everybody they’re just kooky 30-year-old kids, give em a break

remote work is like birth control or UBI atp where there’s overwhelming research consensus they improve quality of life for people they apply to, yet access is impeded or blocked by the ruling class because the thought of marginalized ppl having rich full lives makes steam come out their ears

I dont think enough Americans realize Republicans are gearing up for permanent rule. I dont know if we will get to midterm elections. Even if we do, with gerrymandering, the gutting of the Voting Rights Act, and violent intimidation, they'll rig the elections for minority rule. All hands on deck.

I just think AI is so exciting bc it's a machine that you can get wrong answers from, that yields environmental devastation, and is being forced on all of us

whole gobermint gone, whole econony ded, society melting, collapse of the american empire, all because some evil ass freaks REALLY REALLY REALLY wanted to fuck you even harder than they already are, and like the many rapes they've collectively committed, they aren't taking no for an answer

If anyone needs me I will be in the museum, lying down next to the bog bodies.

a cool and true thing you can say whenever you feel like it is that the sitting us government is fundamentally illegitimate because of the criminal executive that criminally conspired his way into power along with his accomplice criminal court that joe biden, in both counts, failed to punish in ‘21.

"To be a Republican in 2025 represents a clear public confession that you either don't know the difference between good and evil and you're so morally empty that you can't be bothered to begin to try, or that you do know the difference, and you prefer evil." www.the-reframe.com/the-crime-of...

BATMAN’S THERAPIST: Tell me about your father. BATMAN: When I was a young boy, my father took me into the city. To see a marching band BATMAN: Then, he asked me a strange question about my future BATMAN: Then we caught a movie

My memory was so much better when the world was still full of magic

It's really great that we have a mad-king who thinks he's going to hell no matter what he does and is in charge of a humanity-ending nuclear arsenal.

If there's a heaven and a hell and which one you go to depends on how good a person you are or how much suffering you caused or anything like that? Donald Trump will go to hell. Obviously.

Pitch: A movie star whose moves always bomb, just pure box office poison, who studios use as a sort of franchise hitman to tank any tentpole movie for tax purposes. ENTOURAGE meets THE PRODUCERS. And make sure you rack up the budget on this thing because I've got the perfect guy to play the lead

I think we really should stop using antifa and just fully say anti-fascist and get them saying they are against anti fascism. Using antifa is giving them some distance and I genuinely think some of their base don’t even know that’s what it stands for.

every single tech idea is like “soon our robots will be capable of playing catch with your kid, freeing you up to spend more time working on your employers’ spreadsheets”

Can we PLEASE stop describing what the US military does as "defending" ANYTHING? The US military has not plausibly defended Americans since AT LEAST WWII. It was at least vaguely plausible that Hitler could have invaded the US. All wars since then have been 100% OFFENSE. bsky.app/profile/broa...
