The Atlantic should be ashamed to have published Jamie Kirchick's "DSA is a 'parasite'" screed. Beyond that, though, no one should credit Kirchick's thoughts on DSA or the Dems. He is a bad-faith operator here, undermining those he has always sought to undermine — because he is a neocon.

Folks, Trump and MAGA aren't leaving legally or peacefully. I wish more people would talk about this. They are literally sharing their supervillain plot in the open.

Financial disclosures show that Susan Collins was taking checks from some of the men named in Epstein Files.

extremely funny to me that analysts whose entire job is to think about these possibilities are only now catching up to Bluesky Consensus

Not so coincidentally the same rhetoric used by billionaires and rapists too.

If your cyberpunk isn't horny, you're not cyberpunking correctly.

Hindsight is a mother fucker and the people who tried to point out a problem before it gets worse are at best acknowledged way too late but far more often just left out of the conversation altogether. Big Creator: Hey, this is bad. A ton of small creators: WE KNOW AND FUCKING TOLD YOU!

I’m frustrated right now because, without naming names, I’m watching an excellent vid by a big creator making the very argument I made two years ago that got me huge harassment and smears. But now he has years of evidence of exactly what I said would happen. I bet his vid will be widely praised.

It’s wild watching folks continue to get laid off in droves and have ppl act like this labor market is anything approaching normal. The places supposedly hiring are racing to pay the least while demanding the most.

Here's a few choice-panels from "With Eyes of Glass", an erotic neo-noir comic, I'm realizing with @incarnatecomics.bsky.social. I'm very happy with how it's turning out, hope you'll check it out.🙇

The millennial experience

I get it if you want to read just romantasy stories with no grey areas, that's absolutely your right, but 'ick' and 'ethical' implies that there is something bad and wrong about wanting an romance story that pushes boundaries around certain elements in romance stories.

In 2021, there were roughly 101 gender clinics offering care to transgender youth offering a full range of gender affirming care. By July 2026, there are only about 31 left that still prescribe hormones and puberty blockers.

Oh look it’s how the Democratic Party’s radical fringe “centrists” will talk about DSA Democrats after the primaries…

Christopher Nolan’s Odyssey is a massive hit — and nearly everyone on the Right, from Elon Musk to the Daily Wire, is furious. Because what 21st-century conservatives really want is a profound cheapening of the Western civilization they claim to revere.

oooof. yeah kirchik is not someone who anyone tied to the Democratic party should be taking any advice from.

here’s my offer, The Atlantic magazine, I will read the next “reactionary pretends to give honest advice to Democrats” take if you let me write a piece where I, a DSA member, pretend to give honest advice to Republicans

The thing about someone ‘improperly receiving benefits’ is I don’t care. Oh no did someone get food or health care? Good!

Always the way

I really hate "hallucinating" as an adopted term for AI. It's malfunctioning. It's not a person, it's not seeing things, it's just failing at the function of it's programming.

There's certainly value in studying the economy, I agree. The issue with "Economics" as a science is that it's captured by the thing it's supposed to be studying. It's all about legitimizing policies favored by the ruling class to make sure line continues to go up.

“But skull,” they bleat, “there are economists who disagree with supply-side economics!” The fact that legitimate, academic economists mostly agreed with supply-side economics, and largely still do, means that economics is a pseudoscience, permanently. It’s all ideology.

Extremely amused how liberals are trying to triple down on “dismissing economics, an actual pseudoscience, is the same as being anti-vax” Sorry, but if you can’t see the difference between medical science, and the “science” that brought you Reaganomics, you have been lobotomized by propaganda

"Literature, in the Prairieland case, was turned into a vector of criminalization. In the hands of a prosecutor, the fact that a book or a zine can be passed from reader to reader became the accumulating elements of a criminal conspiracy." This should concern us all, deeply. Please read this.

A crowdfunder has been launched to help Oxbow and Bunuel frontman, martial artist, author and podcaster Eugene S. Robinson raise €45,000 to help towards his treatment, rehabilitation, and living expenses following a stroke earlier this month Further details and donation link here: buff.ly/pfSjoDJ

Olive Garden: when you’re here, you’re scrupulously identification-checked family!

Sen. Mitch McConnell has been absent from his congressional duties for nearly a month, in what he says is an extended period of sick leave. But McConnell has previously worked to bar U.S. workers from being having guaranteed sick leave — including during the height of the COVID-19 pandemic.

Everyone can recognize the guy who theoretically supports civil rights, but CLEARLY has a double-standard that causes them to treat non-white people differently. But for some reason people can't recognize that same effect when the topic is trans people.

Stancil likes to say he supports trans rights, and I agree that when he is talking about an abstract, hypothetical, perfectly spherical trans person, he talks a pretty good game. But the moment he interacts with any actual trans person in the real world, the mask starts peeling at the edges.

When trans folks point out the cowardice of institutions complying with anti-trans bigotry, we're often hit with "but what do you expect them to do?" Well, this. Say "no." Refuse. Defy. Grow a goddamn spine.

What pisses me off about this capitulation to the “trans scare” rhetoric is how neoliberalism is ostensibly an ideology of personal liberty until it deems certain personal liberties politically disadvantageous, in which case it will immediately snap to align with fascism and bigotry

The actual smart people know how bad the economy is. McDonald’s literally put out a memo talking about preparing for a near future in which most people can’t afford their food.

If you think “there is a disconnect between how good the economy is, and how people feel about it” you are an idiot who isn’t looking at the actual economy and has never struggled.
