imagine fucking up this bad

Let it not be lost how much of a disservice these guys did *Graham Platner,* the human being Especially if his whole "trying to be a better person" thing was ever, in any way sincere

he apparently tucked himself in

Pretty funny that for all the shit the chapo boys get, they were appropriately suspect of Platner from the jump while so many others just unabashedly embraced him

I like how every far right party has realizes all they need to do is weaponize the mid life crisis bsky.app/profile/core...

Usa did a bad job- but Usa is still the home of Rock N Roll!! 🎸

One of my favorite pieces while I was at Kotaku was Shawn McGrath of Dyad talking about how beautiful the source code for Doom 3 is. There’s a lineage there that you cannot get back. kotaku.com/the-exceptio...

i strongly believe it psyches the teams out

Damn this is crazy. I know him from PA organizing. Bummed about the lack of judgment here

my kingdom for a dharma wheel bolo tie

Spent this morning in a special type of car repair hell. Here’s my experience of sitting in the waiting room where there were two tvs on the same channel sitting about 20ft away from each other

the cope is off the charts

Can’t believe I made it through this week. I drive for work and don’t have working a/c Drove 85 miles today. Had to bring multiple freezer packs and wet towels in my lunchbox and put it in people’s freezers during visits. Had towel on my forehead an would periodically pour cold water on it

I’ve said this before, but: Threads is fascinating because it’s what happens when you forcibly transfer people whose primary use of social media was commenting on, like, antivaxx Instagram reels into a format where their posts alone can go viral

Denver Post - Colorado's Democratic primary voters pushed hard against Washington yesterday — rejecting one US senator's campaign for governor, revealing cracks in another's reelection bid and giving a 29-year member of Congress the firm boot. www.denverpost.com/2026/07/01...

How is this real

as promised, the Gregg's chicken roll review, for getting us to 900 patrons on patreon.com/whatsallthisthen. plus bonus sausage roll + yumyum review. thanks y'all

Kinda weird when people come to a revelation about needing to win elections after losing a couple primary contests to the left and not when the courts and both houses of Congress and the Presidency are controlled by the other party

Some very smart observations from the very smart Michael Kinnucan in this week’s New York City primaries. (thread, all quotes from him)

Went kayaking for the first time (where the York river meets the Chesapeake!) …I don’t really like things I’m not immediately good at, so I’ll leave it at that :)

I like looking by at the posts of DSA electoral ball-knowers when they’re dunking on random takes after winning some races. It’s beautiful

Of all texts too. This is truly chilling

Today in the US, #Juneteenth marks the end of chattel slavery. While we celebrate, we also honor our ancestors. Last month in Dublin, #YvesSakila joined them as Ireland had its "George Floyd Moment". With love from Minneapolis, we offer this free poster: www.rlmartstudio.com/product/yves...

Mona Khalil, Lebanon’s most well-known sea turtle conservationist, died of her wounds today after being injured by an Israeli strike I feel sick

The National Security Minister of Israel tweets "All of Lebanon must burn. [...] All of Lebanon must burn. [...] For every tear of an Israeli mother, a thousand Lebanese mothers must weep. [...] You need to obliterate. To crush the terror." Germany and the Czech Republic oppose sanctioning him.

Lmfao literally just screenshotted the same thing for the same reason

the worst thing about this country is that a democrat saying this objectively sensical statement would be eviscerated and a republican can say this even though they're the entire reason we're here

This is so beast

very pleased with the results of tonight’s #collage night

Do you think I switched out my cabin air filter too early

so how's the new seattle mayor doing

i wonder if trump knows that he could get israel to stop attacking lebanon if he stopped giving them money and weapons

Who was Amílcar Cabral, and why does his legacy still matter today? He was a revolutionary leader, thinker, and strategist whose ideas on decolonisation connected ideas with action and continue to influence scholars, activists, and movements around the world. folukeafrica.com/amilcar-cabr...

I know Calvin’s dad is already having a moment, but every terrible “outsource precious and fleeting moments with your children to tech so that you can spend more time on your work” pitch makes me think of that one strip I never really cared about as a kid, but care a lot about as an adult.

"Nirvana is a reaching-point, a goal. But Nirvana is also the home to which we are returning. We use the words “original state of mind” to denote both our home and our destination." –Sokei-an Shigetsu Sasaki #DailyDharma tricycle.org/magazine/return-your-original-state/

Last image from tonight (short film in the morning): this brother out here with his Singer sewing machine, gifting people a custom embroidery on their jerseys and hats with the name and the date, was more artistic than anything at Burning Man and ad gorgeous as a Caravaggio. Magic! Goodnight.

The TMS Enjoyer

you know that old trope about how jews can't be trusted because of our dual loyalties? i wonder what happens when it's non-jews expressing dual loyalties on our behalf. wonder what kind of cool stuff will come of that

@zohrankmamdani.bsky.social's video team relies on improvisation more than you might think. @mayor.nyc.gov's Director of Video, Donald Borenstein, spoke to a crowd at Social Media Week about how he and his team approach social video shoots and why it's important to lean into the "imperfections"

The Minneapolis protesters were remarkable for how peaceful and restrained they were in the face of brutality. It’s why nearly all the charges against them haven’t held up in court. Seeking out footage to the contrary isn’t “telling the whole story.” It’s constructing a false narrative.

I learned a lot. www.thecityreporter.nyc/2026/05/29/a...

It just “soccer”-ed to us… it’s time to (goal)post the schedule! You’re going to love “ball” our streams this week. Football, that is.

you sound just like i imagine human resources would sound

BLOGGER WHO HAS NEVER HELD A REAL JOB: you bitches sound just like human reources

Some very cool photos from New York's 1970s lesbian scene, I love preserving history and photographs like this so much.

I really think this is a smokescreen while still trying market the phony awesome power of AI but the singularity does seem to be happening- not by AI itself but instead by human greed & delusion as wealthy elites continue to tear up our planet and economy to power this bullshit technology
