This is proof that sometimes you never know how good things can get, and even then, they can sometimes get even better. 13/10 for all (TT: matiastapia2409)

one of the basic problems of prediction markets that our brilliant economists clearly have not thought through is that the insider trading poisons basically everything in public life. everything is potentially untrustworthy, a set-up. the fix is always in.

The biggest risk in this moment is something sociologists call “symbolic compliance.” That’s when an institution that is violating civil rights gives the public just enough symbolic victories that accountability efforts lose steam before there has been any meaningful change.

Graphic video of the latest ICE murder in Minnesota

here's a mental cleanser for you youtu.be/I5XR48KLE8I?...

The great @usefulnoise.bsky.social made a request that we all write something about what life in Minnesota is like for folks who live elsewhere or might be outside our normal neighbothis-Bluesky footprint. So I went to cursed Facebook and wrote this. Maybe it will help you share your own thoughts.

This was the plan

This pocket Nazi wouldn't be allowed to ride most of the rides at Six Flags.

Here's the ICE agent "defending himself" by shooting into the driver's side window of a car that's pulling *away* from him. Put this photo on the front page of every newspaper in America.

Five years ago, Donald Trump instigated a violent insurrection in the Capitol to prevent Congress from certifying Joe Biden the winner of the 2020 election. The fact that the GOP coddled him, protected him, renominated him, and now support him in office, is a stain that will never be erased.

IF he goes ahead with a traditional SOTU address in a few weeks, I want the Democrats present to laugh in his face. Laugh at every stupid thing he says, every ridiculous lie, shake your heads and smile at what a worthless dipshit he is. It will drive him nuts and completely off script.

Let this be the end...

Every new day seems to bring the most corrupt thing I have ever seen, at least until tomorrow. What an absolute mess.

No and no

If you believe this, forgive me for saying so, but you're an imbecile.

Then it should die...

Jimmy Fallon remains an utterly pointless, unfunny dipshit. Why anyone bothers is beyond me.

Hooollyyyy shit! Scorched the earth with this one.

For modern day conservatives, their ends justify any means. Principles are not a consideration.

This is the same asshole that tried to sell us on the world-shaking paradigm shift that was... the metaverse. Spare me.

Everyone is entitled to hold whatever opinions they like, but that does not obligate anyone else to respect said opinions.

Excellent news on this bright, sunny day.

Wouldn't this be something...

This is a masterpiece. Simply excellent www.instagram.com/reel/DMVGMIC...

Where are all the big-mouth 2A zealots now, all the militia types, etc? This is what they always said they'd need to be heavily armed to stand against. I guess (I always knew) they were all a bunch of pansy-ass cosplaying bullshiters without a spine to share between the lot of them.

Germany gave people €1,200/month no strings attached. They kept working, slept better, switched to better jobs, and even gave more to others. Turns out, when people aren’t drowning, they swim further. #UBI doesn’t kill ambition, it frees it.

Look, you can say a lot about Hogan's legacy: he was racist, he was terrible to his colleagues, he put himself above other people, he firmly believed in the supremacy of white people, he was a bad wrestler, his life was a net negative for society. That's it. That's the post.

If there are two wolves inside me I hope they like Doritos.

Elon Musk constitutes an acute transnational threat to democratic self-government and therefore should be regarded as a problem that requires urgent collective political action across national borders.

Reading is such an extraordinary gift. It’s so incredible that there is no center in the brain for it. It’s an entirely learned activity, not at all innate to us! And it unlocks so much human flourishing and much joy and happiness

Someone should remind the billionaires that before workers had the right to organize and join a union, disgruntled employees occasionally resorted to using bombs and bullets to make themselves heard.

For those who aren’t aware, labor rights were earned in this country in literal wars in the streets between unions and private corporate armies working hand-in-hand with US soldiers. If you didn’t realize it already, the wealth class is seeking to turn back the clock.

@cdcarter13.bsky.social wrote a really good piece on this bad-faith-times.ghost.io/democrats-ar...

This may just be the parasite talking, but I'm going to climb that super tall building over there and release all my spores.

when you have to gut parental leave at 9 but the battle of the bands is at 10 !!

It's been MONTHS since I went to the museum and I'm still thinking about this ancient lil bowl with feet. (Egypt, c.3700-3450 B.C)
