The real question is: can a good Catholic be the vice president?

when posting is better than heaven

Giving Trump $1M seems like evidence of *not* having 'exceptional business ability'

The most insane “anti-porn” bill I’ve seen yet The “Anticorruption of Public Morals Act” would criminalize visual, audio, or written depictions of “sex acts,” with language broad enough to ban distribution of When Harry Met Sally & romance novels .. and that's not even the worst of it 🧵

This is definitely the 100% truth

I wish I could get cis people who see how rightfully terrified people are of what is being said about autistic people, and what will come next, is the fear trans people have been living with for a decade. You understand this, why not that?

I put aside my reservations about Kamala Harris being a lifelong cop because the stakes were so high and even went to one of her damn rallies. And of course she proves my original instincts right. Never give politicians (or cops) the benefit of the doubt.

Never in the entire history of the world could anybody have guessed what the fuck that was supposed to be about.

If you care about Bluesky (the platform) but do not follow @laurenshof.online's analysis, then you should! Another great piece, this time about creating an open social web while under major threats from authoritarianism.

Iran is giving your kids autism from neutrinos

America's Lysenkoist era

i am going to be like one of those catatonic alzheimers patients you just set in front of a piano and they just start playing. 89 years old and essentially catatonic until someone hands me a smartphone and i start typing everything i know about twitter beefs from 2014.

Everyone who gave birth to a child with autism was exposed to neutrinos while pregnant, you know

Shit, there's funding? Where do I sign up to be paid to be anti-fascist?

Important to note that Congress has never passed any law giving the President authority to designate anything as a “domestic terrorist organization.” As a result, this would appear to have no direct legal effect beyond acting as a statement of policy for the Executive Branch.

Made a fun little button for spooky season with watercolors. #kpopDemonHunters #sussie

lots of liberals making it clear that this is not a safe space for nontraditional relationships yeah yeah they're gigantic assholes and deserve nothing, criticize them for the actual bad things they're doing, not that their relationship is *a completely fine relationship structure* jesus christ

"but their relationship is left to interpretation"

Meta’s rules for “Dangerous Organizations and Individuals” were supposed to be narrow—but over the years, we’ve seen these rules applied in far broader and more troubling ways, most recently in this story about reproductive health care. eff.org/deeplinks/2...

I often think how among all the other things it is against, fascism (and its attendant authoritarianisms and make-believes) is fundamentally a war against complexity—against the inherent complexity and multiplicity of the universe and social reality—and against any efforts to understand them as such

Ah, 1999, the good old days, when video games weren't stuffed with woke bullshit... wait...what's that.........

I survived a childhood of post-communist production of Aminophenazone as an antipyretic but Americans can't handle a little bit of Tylenol.

Today we joined local LGTBQ organizations for a petition delivery to @warren.senate.gov + @edmarkey.bsky.social demanding they take a stand against harmful legislation like KOSA, online ID checks + calls to sunset Section 230, which pose a huge censorship threat to queer + trans people, esp now.

Someone's desperate for attention

if you can only argue for your political preferences by trying to make the argument about "metaphysical and normative arguments about natural kinds" you are almost certainly doing something plainly evil

so much of the internet is some tirelessly maintained open source library that's the backbone of everything nearly all streaming media sites and services are just big server clusters that run ffmpeg endlessly for encoding videos to stream that's it

Just got sucked into @neal.fun's "Not a Robot" neal.fun/not-a-robot/

Other things that will probably cause autism after they try to ban Tylenol: -seed oil -pizza toppings other than pepperoni -trans people -woke -women’s suffrage -late night TV hosts -empathy -windmills -Canada

i just don't think "log off" is a real solution.

I wonder how many crazy new sects we'll get out of this Millerite speedrun

Following the service we will upload the New and Final Forever Cut of Charlie Kirk's favorite film #RIP

what it feels like on contemporary conservative MilTwitter with its obsession on lethality:

Oh, and for the record: the Economist article was put together and published without any input from the study's authors, who clearly pegged it as a hack job.

If you see people mocking Wikipedia you should find better people

Better get naked and stand on the roof, just to be sure

trump has declared autism to be a terrorist organization

"Free markets and personal liberties" (you must feel the emotions the state assigns your to feel)

From the party that brought you "Doing nothing to codify reproductive rights for women for 45 years", comes Broken Record This greatest hits album includes the brand-new singles "Democrats Should Welcome Anti-Choicers" and "Your Transphobic Concerns are Valid"

This was because said dev made a joke about if the shooter's name was Mario. Because, y'know. Mario and Luigi. Extremely tame stuff. But they fired an employee at the behest of a Twitter mob THAT WAS ALREADY BOYCOTTING THEIR GAME. The same mob that was harassing the star of their game. Dumbfucks.

Every single criticism of BlueSky is valid except somehow the one the pundits stumbled upon, which is roughly equivalent to kicking down the door of a KFC and incredulously asking everyone if they are aware they are eating fried chicken.

somebody proposed this a while back, but a comedy where Iranian, Russian, and Chinese agents are simultaneously trying to work Trump would be ... well, probably a factual portrayal of 2025.

strangely, everyone who stans kamala is silent. wonder why? almost like she never gave a shit about u and that she just was doing what was electorally viable. if she won, the right would've doubled down on project 2025 and made it project 2029. capitalism always decays into fascism given time

It's entirely unfair to suggest Emil Bove got onto the 3rd circuit solely for getting Tom Homan off - he *worked* for that judgeship!

lol. Emil Bove intervened. The guy that Senate Republicans just confirmed for a lifetime position on the federal bench. www.nytimes.com/2025/09/20/u...

Oh look, a new way to pack the military with supporters

Post now deleted, more or less confirming it was a DM. Great opsec!

The median voter is a cosmic horror that is impossible to understand or satisfy. Ezra Klein is a cultist who has gone mad in service to his elder god.

the way that this stuff is quietly tolerated on the broader left is really quite disturbing.
