“When we ignore the digital harm, the only moment that becomes visible is when the victim finally breaks,” Alexander said. not just digital. this is a standard DARVO tactic. evil forces abuse in secret then wait til the victim strikes out, to punish them. yeah, i said it: evil.

sick pervs obsessed with genitals, continued

A few folks have been skeptical that there's been a shift but remember that earlier this year they were absolutely crowing about shipping people to CECOT and about building their concentration camp in the swamp - to the point of making "Alligator Alcatraz" merchandise

what's fun about workshopping stuff in public like this is you get replies from other humans with their real, thinking human brains! sometimes the replies are excellent and spawn new ideas sometimes they ask questions so you have to clarify your thinking sometimes the replies are bad (not u tho)—

A Bondi Beach lifeguard went out and rescued a swimmer during the shooting, when everyone else was ducking for cover. That's dedication.

i say this with nothing but love for all of you to whom this applies, but the moral rot in elite journalism is because journalism is a trade and it should be done by tradespeople and instead it's been professionalized in a way that makes it cozy to capital instead

Who now has a complete run of WildC.A.T.s Vol 1 #1-50? That's right. Me.

If you pay attention to any large industry long enough and follow it to its logical conclusion you eventually end up sounding like a communist even if you started off testing CPU case fans. youtu.be/cUrJVdF2me0?...

The Olivia Nuzzi story and the Bari Weiss at CBS story are the same story, which is that the upper echelons of legacy media are absolutely rife with people who worship power and don't feel burdened by any sense of responsibility to their profession or the public.

she needs to discuss your recent investments in cocaine futures and inflatable cars

yes. she investigated the case of why everyone at the new york times hated her and discovered that it was because she was too smart and too brave.

And, of course, here's the post at my Patreon. Please consider supporting my work. Thanks. www.patreon.com/posts/146446...

I am highlighting a bunch of examples of people genuinely trying to use LLMs and genuinely not finding them very useful to illustrate that this really isn’t just a “rabid AI haters who’ve never actually tried it” conversation

what do we think the revamped 60 Minutes segment will look like? the obvious answer is it will include interviews with the administration, but an underrated contender is interviews with victims of purported migrant crime.

Can confirm

The most heart breaking part is this kind of "journalism" high up editor logic is NOT unique to Weiss. I wish you could've heard what I heard when my work was killed, silenced, suppressed and silenced (or at best, just criticized). It's eerily familiar. In some ways identical.

Keep seeing media industry old heads saying things to the effect of, “she could have gotten this outcome without the bad press.”

Yeah I’m sorry but this looks like Nolan indulging in all his worst impulses

Yeah I’m sorry this looks like Nolan indulging in all his worst impulses

Me: would you mind saying this thing on the record that you probably shouldn't? DHS: Buddy, we would love to say the thing.

Latest: I asked DHS' public affairs office if it considers recording or following federal law enforcement to be obstruction of justice. DHS response: "That sure sounds like obstruction of justice." reason.com/2025/12/22/d...

it remains extremely funny that trent lott had to resign as senate majority leader for saying something that by the standards of today's GOP would be deemed insufficiently based and evidence of squishiness

Important context here: when Peter Thiel and David Sacks began their war on diversity as undergrads at Stanford, thirty years ago, the very first tactic they adopted was to normalize slurs that had already been stigmatized out of mainstream society. This return of these hateful terms was a key goal.

And Tiny Tim... Who did not die

Yes - and as a writer or researcher there are few tasks more annoying than correcting a bunch of errors that you wouldn’t have made in the first place.

Everyone sat around talking about how these people were incredibly stupid and then they managed to successfully implement large swathes of the plan that they all told us they were going to execute and you really have to wonder who is the stupid in this equation

Nah. I'm good.

CBS bows again to Trump by shelving critical '60 Minutes' story www.dailykos.com/stories/2025...

Reporter: We have 3 videos, 2 breathalyzers, 4 bartenders, and a minivan full of nuns attesting to how the driver was drunk and reckless when he hit the school bus. Weiss; What did the driver say. Reporter: He and his lawyer won’t talk. We asked them 5 times. Weiss: I’m killing your story.

it’s pretty pretty pretty grim to have the vice president literally repeat the rhetoric of white nationalists and then have the most powerful newspaper in the country say “he’s trying to split the difference” because he chose not to enunciate the 14 words.

this is like how jake tapper used to bitch and moan at me in DMs because media matters called out his sloppy reporting in a public report. these guys dont ever want anything in the open.

Lens flare makes the Branch Manager look more majestic

I feel I should also specify I am looking for sfw art atm

Im gonna try and say this in a way that doesnt use bot spam buzzwords: does anyone know someone I can compensate in exchange for illustrating/helping me make a fursona

VOY finally shows us the inside of a working sonic shower. TNG shows us the subjective view of an active matter/energy transport for the first time. What did DS9 innovate in this space? #TNGSunNight

What really depresses me about the news industry is how many people in positions of power seem to hold the core values of journalism in contempt.

This is a bad time right now but I would like someone to make an Edward R Murrow thing. I know Good Night and Good Luck exists, I don't care. I want a thing. I want a good five season thing with 10+ episodes. Start in London. Call it Wires and Lights. Go for it. Anyone.

the two people alive most likely to be the actual biblical Antichrist are the president and Mr Beast

weird how officials can blow a game changing call and everybody just laughs about it

I do appreciate how each new Mr Beast thing becomes more dreamlike, as if it’s a profane parable whispered into your subconscious by a demon

solipsism + group chat brain rot x twitter brain rot = this admin’s brilliant gambits

When we say "no, everything hasn't been digitized," I need you to understand that we really mean is that virtually nothing has been digitized. This is because the realm of primary sources that historians use is incomprehensibly large.

Hey, if you work at CBS and want to talk, off the record, about what’s happening there, you can get me at [email protected] or at JulieDiCaro.46 on Signal.

TWO leggy?

Oh no

It's within the last 20 years that teams thought it was a hilarious joke to put two male fans wearing the opposing team's gear on the Kiss Cam, because ha ha, isn't it so funny to use the Kiss Cam to call the visiting team's fans gay?

HASSETT: If the Supreme Court doesn't find with us, refunds would go to whoever cut the check for the tariff BRENNAN: Doesn't the administration claim it was the country that paid that? HASSETT: Uhh --
