The audacity of a guy who illegally knocked down a third of the white house to build a gilded ballroom for himself to be inaugurated for an illegal third term by soliciting bribes from private "donors" to investigate another government official for construction going over budget is insane

Im tiredpilled. Im going full sleepymode

When you see of someone shouting at ICE, be sure to practice media literacy and check if it appears to be AI. Anti ICE content gets engagement and slop creators know this too. It sucks we have to deal with that on top of everything else but it’s part of the mess that is 2026

Gotta love how people see white on white violence but still manage to blame (and use it to dehumanize) The Jews

I went over to threads and it’s weird to see devs be like “I have 10 sub agents using the Ralph wiggum looping method to save on tokens, they each review each other’s code and then file tickets for me based on what they did” Meanwhile I… like… write code? And maybe use some autocomplete?

you can't be a Serious Adult Realist unless you accept the existence of a fascist militia founded in 2003 as an immutable, eternal reality

Naming a police officer is not doxxing. We aren’t supposed to have secret police in America.

Bret is stuck in the past where his buddies are pretending to mask plunder with insincere nonsense about liberty and democracy. That’s unnecessary now, they’re openly admitting they’re just mafia thugs taking things because they can. bsky.app/profile/jhol...

it is the policy of this government to treat democratic-led states as conquered territories and the people therein as something like hostiles or even enemy combatants

I don't see a grok content unless it breaks containment, but it does feel to me like every 3/4 months X swaps out its "personality" (whether it's RLHF / system prompt) for political/other reasons. Like, the style and tone is so distinct from mecha-hitler / elon-piss-drinking-winner eras.

My whole life, advocating war has been fed to me as “the adult position,” akin to drinking your coffee black or reading the business section of the newspaper. Let’s be very clear — war is the childish nonsense of impulsive destructive idiots playing baby-brained video games with real human lives.

finally, we're living through precedented times

If we understand some oligarchs are buying media outlets to support the authoritarian project (as happened in Hungary), we can predict what they’ll do and fight back more effectively. If we assume they’re motivated to maximize profit for the company, we will be less effective in fighting back.

"we're here to inspect your daycare center"

People said 2026 can’t fit new years glasses but my brother figured out a way

This has been the autocrat’s playbook for a decade or two: have friendly oligarchs buy up independent media and then they impose government-friendly editorial policies so the autocrat doesn’t have to get their hand directly dirty killing the free press.

Cousin’s kid was running a pretend store in the living room. I came to pay with pretend cash, but she pointed to a box and told me I needed to tap my phone. Times are changing

The science museum in Berlin has a section on trains. Which is cool. The section on trains has a long mea culpa on the train company’s enthusiastic complicity in moving humans efficiently and lucratively. Which should make you stop and think.

I feel like there should be a term, like “Musking” for the malicious use of capital by far right actors to destroy institutions and turn them into propaganda outlets

Bluesky continuing to remind me of the time a dude on here said Israeli children deserve to be murdered because they grew up on stolen land, unlike his family, which is from New Jersey

When you’ve gone to this place, it’s time to just admit your only interest in antisemitism is claiming it doesn’t exist

I know Bluesky loves techno-pessimism, but it is a genuinely insane development that we went from "there's no such thing as a surefire weight loss drug" to "you can get a surefire weight loss drug via boner pill online physicians" in like a year

Drag every executive at CBS before congress and ask them under oath if the Trump administration had any hand in the squashing of the CECOT story

If more devs had to set up Ashby interview pipelines we’d have terraform/pulumi providers for that shit and it would suck less

What is happening here? Endorsing a 2028 candidate before the midterms is a wild choice. Feels like maybe the air has all left Trumpism

Merriam-Webster’s human editors have chosen ‘slop’ as the 2025 Word of the Year.

Ah yes, the three major disasters in the US right now

This is Gestapo shit. No two ways about it.

Really 2025’s word of the year SHOULD be “slop”. No other word has skyrocketed to prominence so fast.

The cacophony is kinda cool though?

The guy shot two random people with a gun, I don't think you can say he wasn't assimilating into our culture

The main philosophy of the Trump administration is hatred of America and everything it stands for

As a Jew it doesn’t seem that hard to understand that if people are protesting outside a synagogue because they think it’s pro-Israel, that’s antisemitic but if they’re protesting outside a synagogue because it’s hosting an event encouraging people to move to illegal settlements, that’s fair game.

it's some kind of journalistic malpractice to tell people an areon going for 30% off of $1600 is a meaningful "discount". you're supposed to get one from a shady facebook marketplace guy for $150 at most

Bezos is in them

Been clicking around randomly on jmail.world and it's just trump everywhere

Musk's ego was mortally wounded by Joyce Carol Oates and he's been on a narcissistic supply bender since

Broke: Man bites dog Woke: Dog shoots man

2024: hahaha suck it troglodytes, this thing's gonna be replacing your job and dating your girlfriend 2026: we continue to see modest gains at the edges of our applications. we believe 14% of consumers may be ready to spend up to three dollars a month on this by end of Q4

Jesus Christ they can’t get the one famous person with my name. That’s fucked.

Pizzagate: If you replace the word “hot dog” with “little boy” and “pizza party” with “child sex orgy,” you will see the lengths these elites go to cover up their crimes. Real elite emails: Send me nude pictures of those 8th graders we abused last weekend post-haste! I am the Ambassador to Turkey.

QANON CULTIST IN 2017: "In this 1,879 page thread I will unravel the byzantine system of codewords and phrases the global elite use to mask their pedophile cabal." JEFFREY EPSTEIN WRITING AN EMAIL AT THE SAME TIME: "helo its me jeff had fun cmmitting sex crimes wit u lst weeknd"

oh so these people do pay attention to who politicians follow on social media, they just don’t care that the vice president follows a bunch of actual neo-nazis

oh my god they actually did it lmao

speaks volumes that Trump's response to tonight's resounding defeat is to demand Republicans redouble efforts to rig elections
