the president is raiding the treasury to put your tax dollars into this mans personal checking account as a reward for what hes doing in this picture

I’ve never really been an Our Tax Dollars guy but all the blatant corruption, ballroom, slush fund for rioting pedophiles etc is really throwing me into a permanent state of rage and bloodlust. Something’s gotta give

When a federal agency tasked with protecting all Americans decides to mandate a specific religious worldview, it ceases to protect democracy and begins to threaten it.

This is really not a good way to address your own fans who were upset at a misunderstanding.

A special thank-you message from GAMEOVERSE showrunner, RubberRoss!

“I don't understand what it's supposed to do. Every time I see a video on Instagram that's like, 'Hollywood is cooked,' what follows is, like, the most stupid dog shit I've ever seen in my life…”

It is worth saying that it appears that the brave and principled actions of people of Minneapolis and the killings of Alex Pretti and Renee Good seem to have been a legitimate inflection point in American politics. We should carry that forward with us.

Plato argued in the Republic that the 'tyrant,' or someone with unlimited wealth and power, would live the worst possible life because his soul would be devoured by lawless, unlimited desires that could never be sated. I think we've gotten confirmation of this from more cases than Trump lately

Someone's really gotta follow up once with this guy. "To be clear, you think I should be executed? You want me to be dead? You're going to kill me?"

Seriously, fuck this. I'm so sick of our profession's cowardice. www.reuters.com/legal/govern...

In (scarcely any) defense of Trump, the Thucydides Trap is one of those truisms someone contemporary came up with that doesn't have much backing with anything

NEW: Seattle might declare a civil emergency to help LGBTQ (mostly trans) people fleeing red states, so I looked for a Texas angle. An organizer told me that Texas is #1 among trans people looking to relocate: "The baseline hostility to their existence is unbearable." www.chron.com/culture/arti...

Exclusive: Last year, she was demonized for grading a poorly written psychology paper. Now, Mel Curth is speaking out about being targeted by Christian conservatives and to correct misinformation she believes the University of Oklahoma allowed to spread. www.advocate.com/news/people/...

not drawing comic: oh how i wish i was drawing my comic drawing comic: how stupid of me, how foolish of an endeavor. each passing moment is agony. the sin of creativity which i have committed so naively has banished me to this purgatory of endless torment, that now i must draw a cash register

twitter is arguing about my atom bomb video again. it getting called imperial japan apologia is confusing, since i'm consistently critical of imperial japan & its leaders. i even have that part calling out their war crimes & oppression, & say nothing i've said should generate any sympathy for them

The trick is that, while all ethnicities are fake, "white" is the most fake ethnicity. It's the only ethnicity defined solely by negation, ie by what it *isn't* rather than what it *is* "Whiteness" only exists adjacent to a racialized power structure

“The revealed preference is their core voters actively enjoy being taken for a ride by the most obvious scam artists you’ve ever seen, as long as they validate their morbid pathologies about race and gender as they do so.” www.liberalcurrents.com/respecting-r...

Whether she gets a love interest or not, all I really care about is that Loona ends the series happy. That she comes out with a loving family, loyal friends, a trusting support system and feels the kind of love she was denied for so much of her life.

boycotts work. anyone stating otherwise is spreading state & corp sanctioned propoganda

I can think of a few other things that should happen to them

Billionaire Bezos must be afraid. Goes on an anti-AOC tear with two WaPo editorial board rants against the congresswoman in 4 days. www.washingtonpost.com/opinions/202...

Watching David Attenborough get highly deserved praised for his century is reminding me: There is no crisis of masculinity, as such. We have plenty of positive male role models in our society. They just aren’t being pushed into young men’s feeds by nihilistic ad networks and social platforms.

As a writer and former journalist (who works around tech), I’ve been thinking about this for the past hour. I’m not sure how the NYT can keep this journalist on staff. The act is not simply in violation of their own code of conduct — it’s against everything a journalist is supposed to stand for

personally I think it's a very big deal that the Canada bureau chief for the @nytimes.com — certainly one of the highest-paid journalists in the country — asked an unspecified "AI tool" what Poilievre said & published its AI-hallucinated quotes in her reporting.

Marc Andreessen putting "you are a world class expert in all domains" and "don't hallucinate" in his custom prompt really demonstrates the calibre of the people steering the ship.

They suspended @rdelacy.bsky.social for the most basic post.

Elon Musk accidentally revealing his mom's account is one of his alt's means that he has both impersonated his own infant child and mother online

I personally love to read shit like "U.S. Pauses 'Project Freedom'" in headlines. Not all good jokes need to be complicated.

This is going to suck so hard

Some horrible person docked their tails, though, and that's unforgiveable

Stancil refuses to call the genocide of Indigenous peoples by white colonists during the U.S. founding and westward expansion a genocide

Leaked audio recordings prove Argentina's libertarian President Javier Milei is conspiring with the drug lord Juan Orlando Hernández—the drug-trafficking former dictator of Honduras, whom Trump freed from prison. In a recording between Milei and the drug lord, Hernández proposed creating a right-

No kidding. The Napoleonic Wars aspect of the Star Wars prequels always bothered me, just a little, even as a kid. I was looking at those deployments going "... Yeah they'd be slaughtered en masse."

Moron centrist pundits like "you cant run on left & win presidency" like we werent alive in 08/12. Obama hilariously ran as a progressive governed from center then ran re-election even more progressive. His campaign slogan was like "fat cat scumbag Mitt Romney will fire your dad"

I find it incredibly telling when men like Dawkins are convinced that the LLMs are ‘intelligent’ because it ‘agrees’ with them or tells them how insightful or clever they are

The recent announcement about Anthropic joining the Blender Development Fund as a Corporate Patron member has raised concerns from the community around how we engage with AI topics. This is how we plan to address the issue: www.blender.org/news/upcomin... #b3d #DevFund

The indictment is absolute soup. Lab leakers have completely given up on proving their main contention and are now just flailing around looking for any rule violation or procedural misstep that makes it look like a cover-up happened. www.justice.gov/opa/pr/forme...

Hot take into the void: "ultra-processed food" is basically the antivaxx conspiracy theory for people who think they're far too well informed to get hooked into anything like antivaxx.
