My redistricting take is that we have an incredibly narrow path back towards something like a constitutional republic, and it runs through Dems fighting pretty dirty in the short term. I think war is a pretty good metaphor. All options are bad, we can't win and keep our hands completely clean.

I do not understand what it is that makes people allergic to alt text. You're just being less than your best self when you refuse to do it. I see 40k-100k following accounts who won't do it, a middle finger to everyone with issues needing alt text to be able to participate. You're bumming me out. 1/

Fuck this guy.

Who needs alt text NOW, baby

How did you know I was going to call your puff?

i don't understand bluesky people who pretend to be on the left but absolutely hate poor people and complain about people asking for money. hating beggars is actually just standard reactionary stuff. it's weird to know about systemic economic inequality and still be doing that.

there was a Shiba parade in San Francisco and all the shibas wore yukatas it’s too much

Media needs to stop with "critics say" and just quote the actual language of the bill. HB 249 creates a new category of "seminudity" which can be used to arrest women who aren't nude, but are wearing clothing — leggings, t-shirts without bras — that religious groups feel is too provocative.

stuff i think it's good to remind each other of: - you are owed something by society - you are not an individual, separate person - it is moral to impose on others for your needs - it is rational to feel anger when witnessing abuse - you have the right to defend yourself and others using violence

Scold, coward. You are only going to scold a man

am i "agp"? what's what? oh you mean like sabrina carpenter?

i love socialism and anyone pushing forward radical left ideologies like this. we need more civil servants in public unions! imagine how many civil servants we could hire if we cut the police budget by even half.

yeah. i'd like a system where none of these things are on the table and a party with a plan to get us there. sorry. you don't get to map out the road to hell in secret meetings, laughing and collaborating with the opposition, and then try to blame voters for hell. that's where you were going anyway!

let's all just enjoy this scene again 😌

it also has this one

the scene in master and commander that caused millions of men to fall in love with russel crow

god created two genders and it’s important we all accept that (russell crowe in master and commander and paul bettany in master and commander)

I would force the baby to play the talos principle, in which their dialog with the game's ai will cause them to question the philosophical underpinnings of their binary christian worldview

The number of sex workers I know with medical debt is ridiculous. Help a babe out!

no one is answering me, but that's alright, i'll just draw on all of the women i've ever wanted to b— all of the women i've ever dated. wow, what a coincidence they were all born in january-february.

Many don’t know this but the reason for all the clean rooms in semiconductors production is rose gold

on my commute home i saw the aftermath of a car crashing into an ebiker. very clearly the car turned into the bike and the rider was likely maimed or killed. it makes me sick to my stomach that after 100 years of this shit society still treats daily loss of life like the cost of doing business.

pretty sure this means the second coming of steve jobs is being prophecied

Laughing at the idea that the "first order of business if Dems win House/Senate" should be to re-introduce the right-wing immigration bill Biden/Harris tried to run on in 2024 to take the immigration issue off the table by making a ton of concessions to the anti-immigration right.

wait a minute if tim apple leaves apple do they still get to call it apple or does he take his name with him

in my experience americans put everything on a pancake, peanut butter, chocolate, hell even berries some times. we go a little off the deep-end. once i saw a pancake with nutella!
