"We did nothing wrong by firing chemical irritants at a duly-elected senator" says a lot about where we are at as a country And none of what it says is good

yeah you gotta willie horton ken paxton. have the party committees and super pacs run ads explicitly accusing paxton of covering up for a child abuser. “you love your children and would do anything to protect them. so why would you vote for a man who lets child abusers run free”

Dark Horse Comics is unionizing! Read and sign to support them! I just did. :) www.dhworkersunited.org

i need hell to be real so bad, man

Our entire economy is being artificially propped up by astrology for men: AI, crypto, sports betting, and prediction markets. It's an economy shaped entirely by male insecurity and lack of impulse control, and we'll all pay the price.

Oh! This is the super PAC that was promoting Maureen Galindo's failed primary run

I really think we should consider the possibility Polis did this for attention.

Pope Leo: eyyy its me, da chicago pope William Peter Blatty: gasp! your holiness! Blatty: what an honor! i Blatty: i just Blatty: i just Blatty: wow! Blatty: [geneflecting wildly] just wow!

Oh no! Iran stalling on negotiations with hopes of affecting an election? That's definitely something shocking and new that has never happened before, and certainly not in Republicans' favor! Sorry, hang on, Jimmy Carter's ghost is moving the planchette... www.theguardian.com/us-news/2026...

I teleported home one night With Ron and Sid and Meg. Ron stole Meggie's heart away And I got Sidney's leg.

Discworld QOTD, from Guards! Guards!

as much as i appreciate the democrats responding with vigor for once, the fact that republicans are using "transgender" as a slur for a political candidate is fucking horrifying and dems need to quickly figure out a way to address it head on. calling stephen miller ugly isn't a long-term fix.

Happy Birthday Christopher Lee and Vincent Price. Peter Cushing was yesterday.

Semiotic anthropologist here w/alt-text! As I tell students & everyone who will listen: One of the great lessons of anthropology is that we built this. All of it. And we choose throughout our days how we will continue or change the world we have built. We can & must build differently.

I agree that's a truly great tweet, so I'm reposting with ALT text:

[Now that's public] I've cancelled my donations to Wikipedia after some of us found out this happened. Again, "benevolent" executives are the fucking problem.

The only way to stop a bad dog with a gun is a good dog with a gun

Exactly this. There is no social safety net. We have cash flow right now. But our jobs are extremely precarious (my dept went from 7 people last year to...just me), we have like $2k in savings, and losing job means losing affordable healthcare. And we are in better shape than our extended families

Their third, sitting on the bed, wearing a sash that just says "Glass-Steagall Act": do you guys want to get ubereats after this

⚓️ WE NEED YOUR HELP! HMAS Vampire turns 70 this year! Our curators are digging through the archives and found this photo of a gorgeous lab pup onboard. We have zero details. Who is this dog? When was this taken? Help us solve the mystery in the replies! 👇 #HMASVampire #MuseumArchives #NavyDogs

So many options! (1) everyone register! Nobody go! (2) suggest a nice chesterfield! (3) enjoy some tear gas outside!

it turns out that rich people do not, in fact, actually mean it when they claim that if you tax them, they’ll totally ditch their nice blue state properties and move to darkest Chumblefuck, Arkansas

Finally, Doc Brown will be able to fuel his Time Machine without having to work with terrorists. This is the future we were promised.

What boggles my mind more than anything else about AI art is how standards and QC seem to have been utterly abandoned. I'm pretty sure if an artist had turned this in it would have been sent back with notes. And the fixes wouldn't take too long to make. But apparently no one gives a fuck any more?

The prevalence of AI art has already made it abundantly clear what we already knew: that many clients and employers have no taste and don't give a shit about quality. But I'm starting to think that the note-givers were only ever doing it to assert dominance.

why are threesomes only for sex i want to join a couple when they're getting cake

Let's check in on how Epic Games is doing after laying off more than 1,000 people in March

A ribbon eel swimming is absolutely mesmerising.

Yeah that's pretty much the Leeds experience.

How can Colorado help kids facing mental health struggles? These teens have ideas for the next governor.

I'm not voting for a candidate that wants fascism for trans kids, but safety for me. Don't try to sell me that you're worried about rising fascism, if you think there's enough of a safety margin to throw away the 5% to 10% of anti-fascist votes that you will lose by backing an anti-trans candidate.

This AI trying to say WWE has me in tears

Could there be a better example of "the trans debate" than 98% of women supporting trans people and then one single lone person voting against them and getting their way regardless. It's all such a fucking sham

Awful. A trans woman was found dead near Brays Bayou in Southeast Houston yesterday. "Detectives believe someone might have taken the victim's clothes to limit investigators' ability to collect evidence." (story by @johnwferguson.bsky.social) www.houstonchronicle.com/news/houston...
