Ok @stevevladeck.bsky.social has posted his longer write up. theory: she‘s pushing first circuit to move faster and trying to force SCOTUS to rule faster, regardless of which way they’re going to go, rather then sit on this for months like they could www.stevevladeck.com/p/190-snap-wtf

Ok. Legacy of the Dragonborn is the best Skyrim mod I’ve ever played. It just keeps rewarding you for digging deeper and deeper into it. I heard it was good, but I didn’t anticipate it redefining what Skyrim could be.

yup, even as their expertise is CRYSTAL clear www.rollingstone.com/culture/cult...

I might check this out when the season concludes. Better Call Saul was objectively a better show than Breaking Bad and big reason for that was Seehorn's performance in it.

The airport in Boston is hosting a food bank for TSA workers because the GOP would rather send the cost of healthcare through the roof than make sure Americans can eat three meals a day wbznewsradio.iheart.com/content/loga...

OKC is 8-1 in the West, coming off a championship year, WITHOUT Jalen Williams?? WOW

Sam Altman is just Elizabeth Holmes with a better marketing department.

Barstool is the worse thing to happen to sports since ESPN. Fuck 'em.

They might try, but it wouldn't help all that much. People don't want to get their legs blown off for rich people anymore.

Bro looks like a drauger I come across dungeon crawling in Skyrim.

There's been a slight bump in the last couple of years, but military recruitment in general has been in free fall since the 80s. If the US did decide to get involved in a large scale conflict with anyone, it would not go well. And this before we talk about Hegseth. usafacts.org/articles/is-...

The best advice i could give a man younger than me is, generally what society defines as masculinity doesnt matter. You are a man because u say u are. No matter how u choose to behave you are a man. You dont have to prove that to anyone. No matter what. ❤️

the feds just came out and said that ppl are pretending to be ice so that they can kidnap . assault and murder them shoot that motherfucker in the face

Black, Brown and Native folks aren’t flipping out like white people because we know what’s happening now isn’t an aberration in US history. This is the norm. This is how it’s always been. There has never been a moment we haven’t been in survival mode.

Again, Trump is the latest extension of the will of white folks in the US to destroy everything to punish people for not acquiescing to their collective madness. Because they can stop this at any point. Trump is in office, again, because he’s doing what they want.

Points are being made.

If I don’t know you and my first or regular experience of you is you being sarcastic at or about me in my mentions, it’s a block

In the arc of US history, Trump is actually on the mild side in the context of US presidents. We just have the internet now.

Nah. The Germans were inspired by the US. The police are just… the police.

You have to understand. This is the fantasy of white folks in the US. The unmitigated cruelty of this travesty is *the reason* white folks either didn’t vote or voted for a racist pedophile for a second time. White folks do not care about a functioning society. They only care about hate.

I grew up in the church, so for me Christianity was my intro to how cruel people can be to each other, which began my understanding of what the US was. People kept telling me I would under naked dehumanization when I got older, which ironically was correct. Which is why I’m not religious person

This is pretty standard cop behavior in the US.

I’m honestly curious to see what Mamdani does when the NYPD murders another unarmed person.

No one, and I mean no one (even insert celebrity you love), should be or needs to be a billionaire. It represents an unethical and unnecessary hoarding of money and wealth, especially knowing how many people are struggling to even make it and get by.

Everyone, I’m in an emergency. I need help covering rent badly. I’m a week late and late fees have set in. I’m $375 short. My v e n m o is : @astrotoya My c a s h a p p : $astrotoya or PayPal.me/toyamck

If it’s one thing that broke Christianity’s hold on me as a kid, it’s how people obsesses over the bodies of people they don’t know. Even as a teen, it’s just felt gross. The way folks try to make this obsession a ‘moral issue’ to normalize it is just flat out disgusting.

Holy shit. Noam Shazeer, one of the original authors on the "Attention is All You Need" paper and Character.AI founder, came out as major transphobe. Like Trumpian levels of "this is child mutilation" of transphobia. (via The Information)

Received $10 yesterday! Bringing total to 470/1470. Please continue sharing until goal is met! 💸💕 #helpsky

The US used to murder Black folks for knowing how to read. White folks made post cards from picnics around hung bodies. Forced sterilization of women was a sanctioned program in the US. The US is multiple atrocities stitched together. What’s happening today is mild in comparison to history

I don't understand the debates about it. You have no right to my attention. If I decide I want to block you I should be able to block you. If I don't want you to be able to reply to me you shouldn't be able to reply to me. If I don't want my quote on your page I should be able to remove it.

It’s sick yes. But there is a consistent internal logic to it if you understand that ableism and eugenics are deeply rooted in modern Silicon Valley. The deaths of or harm inflicted on vulnerable, struggling or disabled people will always be an ‘acceptable’ cost for the ‘progress’ of the tech

Hard agree. Law enforcement specifically filters out people that can think for themselves. That profession recruits awful people by design.

It cannot be denied that ChatGPT is a eugenics project.

I’m so tired of people acting like anyone who isn’t wealthy is mismanaging their money.

This is going to unleash a wave of *checks notes* sandwich relates violence on our BRAVE members of law enforcement in unprecedented ways. Ter... *cough* policing dangerous immigrants isn't enough now we have to worry about delicious combinations of condiments, meats and cheeses?? THIS IS ANARCHY

I’m used to my Wizards being terrible. But it also seems like they’re tanking. Either way it’s a pretty standard season for us.

I usually ignore the first few weeks of the MNBA season as rotations get worked out and folks get in shape. End of November into December is when good ball starts getting played consistently. But Chicago is the biggest surprise so far. I wonder if it will last.

This is why I never worry about Smart. He’s a professional basketball player.

My big advice for how to survive right now is to watch/read/listen to what makes you laugh You have to give yourself a chance to laugh

Blonde white women aren’t my thing, but Lagertha? We might could do a coffee date.

Once again the discourse reveals that some writers have no idea what feminism is. It’s aggravating. You still don’t know? In 2025?

The terror and joy at the same time. I feel you big man. I feel you.

If it can be voiced by Karl Urban, I think I’d be cool with it.

A spider megacity implies the existence of a spider Judge Dredd and I have never been more terrified.

There is going to be a white backlash to Mamdani. There is *always* white backlash when a nonwhite high profile political figure not aligned with white supremacy has success. Always. Ten times outta ten.

Hm. I’d say the main issue with Dems is that they are trying to copy the wildly successful GOP model of appealing to bigots without saying outright they are bigots. Mamdani won big b/c he threw that out altogether in NYC. Exposing the fatal flaw in Dem political strategy they refuse to admit

my dude looking worse for wear these days but i always say hi to him in the east village when i'm around

There’s no such thing as “conservative feminism.” They’re co-opting the label “feminist” as a shield against critiques of their misogyny. But you can’t be a feminist if your entire platform is stripping rights from other women to hand them to men.

Socialist, communist, yada yada blah blah blah. None of it means anything to me anymore with decolonization mindset. All of that stuff is just white man role-play and fantasy to me. Been played out over and over again. Are we not ready for something new?
