Video haters vindicated once again. The moving image is a sin and we will all pay for its growth.

It's all fun and games until a cop handles a Tylenol gelcap with no gloves and within seconds their socks are bothering them.

This kid was not some grizzled old dude, mired in decades of "class only" nonsense. But already they had internalized that a response to discrimination was more "divisive" than the initial discrimination itself. This is deeply ingrained, and unity isn't on the backs of those being excluded.

the intensity of my anger at those who would criminalize the homeless — a population literally created by the greed and callousness of the ruling class — is very hard to contain. it was you who dismantled the safety net. if you don’t like the results, put it back

Taurus: After winning your lawsuit for false advertising and injuries sustained while using the products of the ACME corporation, a piano will suddenly and mysteriously fall from the sky, crushing you.

ALL CAPS THIS IS CATASTROPHIC FOR SPACE SCIENCE AND ASTROPHYSICS ... GLOBALLY CATASTROPHIC, NOT JUST FOR AMERICANS 🔭🧪 www.politico.com/news/2025/07...

Did Republicans ever once stop and worry about offending or scaring off left-leaning voters? No, they said they want to put us in camps, and then they won the election

When the broody tortured asshole love interest doesn't grovel or redeem himself:

Currently writing a letter to Apple TV+ to ask for six seasons and a movie of “Sanctuary Moon”. #Murderbot

the fact that people were told “today you are going to an elementary school to lie to teachers and kidnap kids” and didn’t immediately tell their bosses to go fuck themselves is all you need to know about why ICE should be dismantled

“What’s your favorite Isekai?” Me an intellectual:

“I asked ChatGPT” well I asked the three Fates and the one with the scissors got very agitated when I told her you were using your one precious life thread talking to that cursed thing

Like? There's no such thing as "good" trans people and "bad" trans people, there's just trans people, and you either support us all, or you don't. You cannot support and affirm one persons transness and not support another without inherently legitimising some aspect of transphobic rhetoric.

On the anniversary of the sinking of the Titanic, we thought we'd answer a question that's often asked, "If they raised the Mary Rose, why not raise the Titanic?" Allow our scaled diagram to explain...

power to the people and by the people I mean the workers, trans rights now, free palestine, these are in fact winning messages because they are right, say so with your fucking chest /thread

Careful! A lot of restaurants are putting pancake batter in their pancakes, in order to give them a more pleasing taste and consistency. It's a neat trick, but it means the pancakes aren't gluten-free

you’re fired. wait you’re rehired. email us a list of things you’ve done today wait forget it you’re fired again. come back your job was important. you’re fired. or hired. come in to the office. wait the office has no computers go home. we are the department of government efficiency.

Coming around to the view that a certain kind of narcissist simply needs Musk to be a genius rather than a fraud, because they want to believe there’s a hereditary Brahmin class of accomplished, beautiful minds—and that they’re a part of that class.

so at what point do the American people start flinging Arizonas into the Boston Harbor

Sleep token's little puzzles makes me finally understand swifties

Freshly framed paper cicadas! These are made from my favorite recycled cotton and renewable mulberry papers, with some cardstock for the wings. Earlier works in this collection are already available now, and these will be added in February! #darknature #darkacademia #entomology #paperart #curio

I know news and everything and I am posting this on bluesky but on algorithmic socials how many times do I have to tell it "I don't want to see people die" for it to finally get it?

One fed employee on Reddit: “I've never been more motivated to stay. Before the "buyout" memo, I was ready to go job hunting, but then a revelation hit. I took an oath under this position to the American people and leaving my job under the current state would be failing to maintain my oath.”

"My worker who I sexually harrass can walk across the street and get a better job instead of being forced to humor or fuck me" was a genuine crisis for the business tyrant class in America.

It has been my shock since Covid began that a lot of fully grown adults do not understand this. Being a good person isn’t about being harmless when times are good. It’s about being ethical when times are not.

I’m just going to say that AOC is the acting leader of the Democratic Party until someone proves otherwise. At least insofar as she is responding to the moment with leadership.

fandom culture is such a fragile, special place. it’s where so many people throw themselves in completely to start to find themselves a little bit. the presence of predators in that delicate ecosystem that for so many helps them so much - hard to explain how shattering that is.

We can either sit around and point fingers and decide who is the worst and wrongest as the fires rage and the oceans rise, or we can reach out and decide that we’re going to help each other, by transitioning to clean energy and trying to make as many places as safe as we possibly can.

it hurts me to have to admit this but this tremendously rules

THREAD: In 2023, I received an envelope with no return address. Inside was a flash drive containing tens of 1000s of secret files. It came from a vigilante with a tumultuous past, who'd conducted a years-long undercover operation. He didn’t tell the FBI or his family. He only told me.

@themountaingoats.bsky.social have you seen this?

Matthew McConaughey goes to the end of the universe to discover that not only is love the driver of gravity, but that the driver of love is a giant 19th-century portrait of a hog

I was preparing to pitch an op-ed on the nationwide protests calling for President Yoon's resignation, aiming to provide global context amid the limited international coverage. Given the urgency, I’m sharing it now. I didn’t expect events to escalate this quickly. #SouthKorea #Democracy

Until real support and help for people can be provided I can't support assisted dying - despite knowing that in so many cases it's right and appropriate and what the person wants. Because it gives an out. A quick solution, to a system that decides some people are too difficult or expensive to help.

It's Trans Day of Remembrance. And i have this message too. 🏳️‍⚧️

hot frosty is about corrupt sheriffs and the cruelty of incarceration

My biggest pet peeve is when people need blood in a TV show or movie and cut their palm to get it. Why would you do that? It would hurt more, be harder to heal, more likely to get infected, and makes it harder to use your hand

I am glad that I grappled with that problem before we entered this era. I have to remind myself of that answer on a regular basis. We make this world better for everyone we can, and if we can’t make it better for everyone, we make it better for someone. And we just keep on doing that.

anyway I could not be less interested in judging queer or trans people’s activism or commitment to their community based on how vocal they’re able to be about their own identities I care about getting all of us out of this alive. that’s it. whatever it takes

My family put on the veep election night episode to prepare for tomorrow

As of this morning, @nytguildtech.bsky.social, which represents NYT tech workers, is on strike. Unless it's resolved while today's Wordle is still live, this streak is gone. Here's a 🧵 with info on the picket line and how you can help. PLEASE READ — the rules may not be what you think!

1) GA will be too close, and we won't have their final results on the 5th based on their issues with absentee ballots this weekend (medium confidence) 2) we paid too much attention to PA (low confidence)

Again, just to throw it out there, I really really reaaaaally don't want to live in a world where Trump is president and presides over *another fucking pandemic* -- and this time, I guess he'll have Ol' Brainworms himself, RFK Jr., along for the ride? Maybe we just don't?

Regardless of what happens in this election We need you to fucking LIVE. We need your art Your music Your experience Your voice Your laughter YOU I don't know what lies ahead, or just how dark it will get. So fill every moment and space with pieces of you Bits of light worth living for.

Oh hey, great time to reshare this since Trump said tonight he would let RFK Jr "...go wild on health. I'm gonna let him go wild on the foods. I'm gonna let him go wild on the medicines." Maybe let's not fucking do that unless you want this to be the future of the US.

Acquiring GI issues like they are Pokémon

Shit like this—the government finally taking a stand on behalf of consumers—is why every tech CEO is suddenly 100% down with fascism.
