Losing to the baby you bathed sounds like a Greek myth

Regulated capitalism is still capitalism, but it serves to curb behaviors that could ultimately collapse the market altogether. Unregulated capitalism is growth at all costs and any expense, which as many people have pointed out is the definition of cancer.

I know that most of our digital tools are controlled by awful billionaires and it's almost impossible for us to divest ourselves of all of them. But I think that X and Substack are so horribly toxic that everyone should avoid them as much as possible.

The fact that VP JD Vance and Richard Grenell went to Romania—on behalf of the Trump Administration— to advocate for Andrew and Tristan Tate, who by all accounts, were rapists running a coercive sex ring, then permitted them to come to Florida, should be a crazy, crazy scandal.

"it's just a noise complaint though, what could happen" 116 people were killed by police last year during *their own wellness checks*

JK Rowling uses her Harry Potter money to fund lawsuits against companies that support trans rights so no, I do not care what Hogwarts house you are in.

oh so like this was easy and society didn't collapse and everything seems okay and he's already doing pretty well in polling and I guess you didn't need to support the sexual abuser nazi blackwater merc that entire time while calling everyone who called it dumb traitors at all, ok. surprising

Very unfair of the Iranians not to acknowledge POTUS’s world historic victory.

Telemundo anchor in Spanish: “finally, facing a deafening booing, the president of the United States appears…” 🤣

This is me on Beale Street tonight in Memphis. The Memphis Safe Task Force isn't disclosing what they know about the Tyrin Johnson killing. Perhaps one of the National Guard will speak privately to me about what happened.

He can't imagine doing a thing that people have been doing for literally all of human existence. He's either a liar (yes) or he's so over reliant on AI that his brain is actually just soup (possibly). If you "need" chatGPT to raise your kids you shouldn't have kids.

my only anecdotal data point is that a trans friend of mine worked for their marketing department for years and they fully covered his top surgery with paid time off to recover and it sounded like everyone was extremely cool about it, so that has always given them a gold star in my book

El-Sayed: Shouldn't be this hard to pay your taxes and know that that money is going to be spent on you rather than to drop bombs on somebody else and their kids

Domestic and gender-based violence is one of the top predictors of people who are going to be violent in other contexts. Taking domestic violence seriously is part of making a safer world for everyone. And that means no one with a background of DV should ever be in law enforcement.

These are all war crimes and every single member of the US military taking part from logistics to command to the people pressing the buttons and especially Trump all belong in prison FOREVER

Uncle in Iran says the country’s south is being destroyed. Trump is following through on his “bridge and power plant day” threats but it’s simply not registering here the way that it should.

You can't be progressive and be pro-Israel, full stop. There's no way to say you care about progressive values but also you support wanton genocide. People like Amy and Fred are "progressive" in name only and can fuck right off.

i miss my aroace queerplatonic horsegirl freaks #umamusume [tachycafe]

Your periodic reminder that the US is destroying art and freedom of speech in the name of "protect the children" while our president was BFF with Jeffrey Epstein and has been credibly accused of raping a 13 year old. It's not about "protecting kids"; it's about controlling what you see and say.

Here’s a PSA for people like me who were raised not to waste food (perhaps rather aggressively) we are now dealing with an unreliable food safety system in the US. If something tastes weird or funny or off IN ANY WAY just throw it away.

CDs don’t make you listen to 10 minutes of gambling ads before playing 3 songs.

Fuck off. If anything is "millennial", it's those cool transparent colors our iMacs, Gameboys, and Tamagotchis came in. No fucking millennial likes the house flipper grey. Call it a millennial paint job when I can see through the exterior of a car because it's Glacier Purple like my GBA.

Need a plaque that says "Next time don't ignore the Nazi tattoo or war crime mercenary work history" To put up in leftist and social media spaces

The only surprising thing is that this shithead is facing charges. That's a good sign. Prosecutors are starting to find their guts when it comes to ICE. We need more of that. Every ICE gestapo needs to be in prison forever

The Taco Bell finger pointing is a psyop to redirect attention from the real culprit, the deregulation and lack of oversight in our food supply

I’ve said this before privately and now I’m saying it on the record Go check the status of your voter registration and set a recurring reminder to do it again this time in two weeks. Do not let this lapse.

The creator of Roger Rabbit (who is 85 years old by the way) is a good sort Crossposted with @openvibe.social

Having a broken toe really sucks. Constant pain and I won't be able to get anything done this weekend.

The motherfucker declassified and released evidence that Russia was interfering ON HIS BEHALF in the 2020 election O N H I S B E H A L F

But if it really bothered him, he'd be pushing for a switch to a nationwide popular vote rule to prevent a state from having its electors awarded incorrectly as a result. But it doesn't, so he won't. He just wants an excuse to be racist.

Seriously, don't let his "278,000 people are illegally registered to vote" line fool you. It's probably bullshit, but even if it isn't, you're talking an infinitesimal portion of the electorate EVEN IF THEY ALL VOTED, which they didn't.

National Intelligence Council 2021 report directly contradicts Trump's lies about alleged Chinese interference: “We assess that China did not deploy interference efforts and considered but did not deploy influence efforts intended to change the outcome of the US presidential election"

ICE has almost zero recruitments standards by design. The Trump Regime wants violent sociopaths making up ICE’s ranks because ICE is meant to be a private army for the ethnic cleansing of the US. This man is not some exception - he’s exactly what Trump wants from ICE. Abolish ICE, arrests its agents

Almost forgot to post la creatura

Even as a desperately broke queer person in a red state; there’s no amount of money you could pay me to make a single pro-Israel post.

gonna start referring to J.K. Rowling as "some crazy ass bitch who lives in a moldy castle" "J.K. Rowling recently went on record with ..." nnngh wrong buzzer noise "Some crazy ass bitch who lives in a moldy castle reportedly said ..." CORRECT BUZZER NOISE do you see do you understand

Friends, I say this with all the gravity it deserves Homestuck, My Little Pony and Rick and Morty, famously some of the most toxic fandoms in existence in the US space, are all at least ten times more respectable to be a fandom member of than Harry Potter in TYOOL 2026

One thing I really like about Ossoff is his seriousness. He's genuinely disgusted here, not merely camera-disgusted.

Eddie Energy Drink, which I think needs to be a fast talking flimflam man mascot.

So hey real quick Netanyahu and Trump are literally fucking evil and it's a scandal for the entire world that no one is taking any serious action to put them in or under a prison.

Hot take: if you don’t want to see the Andy Serkis Lord of the Rings movie because of Serkis’ rancid vibes; the animated LOTR: War of the Rohhirrim movie that nobody saw was actually good and textually about how women’s contributions to history are often erased to venerate men.

i can’t believe rfk went from farm to farm shitting on all the lettuce but here we are

I know a lot of the focus here has been on the Dems who voted not to cut aid to Israel but I think “the majority of the caucus voted to cut aid” is a monumental sea change in Dem politics and the movement here is only going in one direction this is the most Dem support Israel will ever see again
