Put differently, Taylor Swift is the Elon Musk of the left.

It’s weird how many leftists will acknowledge that billionaires shouldn’t exist, but will jump in front of a bullet to defend Taylor Swift.

The number of folks in liberal “Indivisible” blue MAGA spaces I’ve seen calling attacks against him GOP smear campaigns. Don't let Nazis in the fucking bar. Period.

A lot of folks at XBOX are impacted by layoffs today, some of whom I know are majorly involved in accessible gaming. Hire them.

A sobering reminder that what we were taught in schools was whitewashed and that the “founders” of this country hated the indigenous peoples that were here far before us Vanilla Faces were. pca.st/episode/6b13...

If you are still in the Harry Potter fandom, you are a transphobe. I don't care if you don't give the woman money. Read another book or die mad about it.

I’m off to teach English in Japan for a year. @cassiecodes.bsky.social and @whitep4nth3r.com are going offline to different degrees. It’s so sad to see what AI has done to the industry. I loved it. I had the best, most creative job. And in an industry that cares and shares. RIP the internet. 💔

It’s really important to think about what you’ll do if you see this happen. Role play it in your mind. Follow different what-ifs. It can help prevent a panic/freeze response when the moment comes.

It's wild how far left candidates keep crushing it in elections, while Democratic strategists keep insisting it's a death bell for the party. Bruh, you keep fucking losing. Take a seat and pay attention.

What do you mean abolishing ICE is not doable? It was created in 2003. There are Missy Elliot songs older than ICE.

This is what they wanted They looked at their Black neighbors and said "fuck you, even it costs me" And they voted accordingly This one of the bleakest, most recent, examples of the idea that republicans AREN'T voting against their interests, you just didnt understand what their interests are

We're about to see a million think pieces about how these people were misguided, or lied to, or didnt understand Okay But what if These people just don't give a fuck and there is no sacrifice- even personal sacrifice- too great if it results in a victory for their white supremacist blood god?

My not-so-hot take is that what Mamdani is doing *IS* incrementalism, and the bar is so deeply in hell that a politician just doing *anything* good consistently is a total anomaly for people. And I think for now that is good and fine, because it is restoring people’s faith that better is possible.

I'm with Kyle. Hence why I am CONSISTENTLY reminding all of that we must RAISE our expectations of politicians. RAISE YOUR EXPECTATIONS. It has to be the NORM that they deliver on what they say they will do.

this is not a question of “should service jobs exist” but rather “do the people who work in them deserve to be treated with dignity” and for a lot of americans the answer is “if i can’t yell at the server like a marine corps drill instructor, i will become perfect hitler”

Conservatives are the whiniest group of fucking losers on the planet. They can control all three branches of government and they'll still make up shit to get mad at, like "teachers forcing kids to be trans." Nope. Not a thing. Didn't happen. Cry harder, loser.

I just learned that my favorite TV show ever, Kipo and the Age of Wonderbeasts, is leaving Netflix at the end of the month. It’s rumored it will eventually end up on Peacock, which no one has a subscription to because it’s stupid. Time to get back into DVDs, I guess?

I'm not going to link to the news article because it's horrific, but a reminder: if you see someone stealing diapers, formula, food, etc... No, you didn't.

I had some thoughts on the press coverage of the SpaceX IPO

I don't think I like the narrative of being in a divided country. When somebody is racist I don't have a difference of opinion with that person. they have a moral failing. I'm not obliged to reach over the boundary and explain that we could probably swap kidneys if we needed. Who has the time lol

Ah fuck www.wpri.com/business-new...

Blaming the messenger and tone-policing instead of admitting you fucked up. No genuine self-reflection. No accountability. This guy is toxic. front-end.social/@ppk/1167537...

⚓️ New Article: Stand for something

I'm so sick of people with no fucking morals/standards. "Yea, Elon sucks, but the Tesla is just suck a good car." "Yea, Twitter is a Nazi party, but I get more reach there." "Yea, AI is using all the water and taking jobs, but I don't have to write reports anymore." Stand for something, loser.

Can’t help but notice all the people who said Obama would desecrate the White House with Escalades and rap music on the South Lawn are absolutely loving this UFC fight on the South Lawn. Probably just a coincidence.

Israeli settler carried out a pogrom in the village of Deir Dibwan in the West Bank, near Ramallah. The pogrom was carried out by approximately 50-60 masked and armed settlers. They set houses, vehicles, and fields on fire. They poured gasoline on an elderly man and tried to burn him alive.

Not even remotely surprised to see this kind of reaction from the same guy who thinks it’s OK to call Japanese people “japs” (a slur) “because of the war” (WW2, which he wasn’t alive for). PPK is a shitty human, y’all. front-end.social/@ppk/1167438...

Just as a point of interest: this terror, psychological warfare, and exploitation of the community-based life in Palestine is not a new Israeli strategy. In fact, in the Nakba -Israel's 1948 ethnic cleansing of Palestine- Israel used similar strategies already. www.middleeasteye.net/news/south-l...

The world's first trillionaire did this

We have no money. You know this. Why do you keep asking why we’re not doing things we used to do? It’s because we have no money. We. Have. No. Money. We have no money. There is no money left. It’s all gone. None of us have it. No money. Nope. Money gone. We don’t have it. No.

And not a single fucking person stopped to help her!? TF is wrong with people.

It's an objective fact that Elon Musk is a mass murderer. He intentionally caused the deaths of millions of people. There's no caveats to this, no alternative explanations, no defenses, no missing context; that was the sole reason for doing what he did.

We don’t talk enough about how Elon Musk is a literal mass murdering war criminal.

Too many liberal white people have a boundless capacity for welcoming satanically horrible white people back into the fold.

Not trying to both-sides this, because Trump is objectively worse in every way, but... Obama and Biden both detained and deports a LOT of people, too. They could have shut down ICE and ended this, and neither did. Democrats keep laying the groundwork for the fascists that follow them.

NEW from @ms.now + @themarshallproject.org: ICE has detained *over 500 babies and toddlers* during Trump's second term. www.ms.now/news/trump-i...

people will make any excuse to stay and there isn’t a single good one left.
