maybe as a country we shouldnt support "death squads"

really impressive the way he subtly mocks both trans kids and unhoused people in one seemingly nice tweet!

"The Hobbit" (2012)

if you're still writing using the hero's journey, your mind is closed to all the possibilities

my creative writing poetry degree isnt so worthless NOW is it, DAD???

didnt know my mom was a therapist

"universal high income" to him means killing everyone who makes less than a certain dollar amount per year

not comforting!

we must not release the epstein files, for the sake of the victims of this terrible tragedy. which victim? donald trump. that poor man who has suffered so much, and all simply because he has such a big heart.

sure, Marjorie Taylor Greene will say literally anything (no matter how bat shit coo coo bananas) to maintain her hold on power... but when she says vaguely moderate things to fool centrists into thinking she's changed, i just HAVE to believe she's genuine!!!!!!

I'm so excited to see JK Rowling go on the offensive now that the Epstein files are out, and take down all these super-powerful child abusers. BECAUSE SHE CARES SO MUCH ABOUT CHILDREN BEING EXPLOITED AND ABUSED!!!!!!!!

Bill Clinton's dick is the lament configuration that has cursed american politics for the entirety of my lifetime

"please dont kill me for being trans" = "identity politics" "only straight white men should have rights" = just vibin'!

rich ppl are so smrt ?

NYT: the transes are a menace. gender is hunting your children. they’re not enbies they’re fearthembies. Also NYT: how can we help cover up crimes mister epstein call us anytime

actually reading that DoorDash State of Local Commerce report, and it's as idiotic as you'd imagine

You GOTTA check out Amy's Dead-end Dreamhouse, it's truly special and silly and life-affirming

Folks you simply gotta

I've been seeing this headline floating around. To be clear: 1) This is "No. 1" on a miniscule chart, The "Country Digital Song Sales" chart, as in people actually paying money to download country songs which is a tiny amount of people 2) The actual consumers are almost certainly fake

user posts a random gif from a porn video another user asks grok to identify the woman in the video grok gets it obviously wrong some random pervert correctly identifies her AI will never match the human spirit

James Bond is Scottish but he's also Australian and he's English except when he's Welsh or Irish and occasionally he's English so it's very important that his backstory stay consistent.

Writing the part of my book explaining how, under Clinton, Larry Summers made crushing the possibility of regulating derivatives his reason for being; derivatives crashed the global economy; Obama made him his top economic advisor; THE END. Much more depressing than writing about the Tea Party.

"i have my own feelings" = "get fucked, I'm rich"

if giving up is so great, just resign already

so like 30% of our economy is banking on the POSSIBILITY that we will be able to create slaves. we are crashing our entire civilization on the off-chance we can make slaves, slaves that will make every non-capitalist profession obsolete. this is the "good ending," apparently

Delayed air travel is probably the only element of the government shutdown that actually inconvenienced dems in Congress, unsurprising that they folded basically immediately

getting rid of the ACA is the ruling class begging for an army of Luigis

okay

every member of the "LGB without the T" movement are simply trying to do to trans people what British cops used to do to gay men. theyre a bunch of traitorous pigs. from a report in 1960:

the reality of "i know they're fascist, but at least the trains run on time"

lol she got his ass and he knows it

one man whos never worked an honest day's labor in his life, fellating another man whos never done an honest day's labor in his life

meanwhile, at Speaker Mike Johnson's house

"i'd rather work for the nepobaby-fascist-collaborator-sex-pest than serve under the lifelong public servant with an immaculate record" isn't the moral flex these freaks think it is

a great movie with Cary Grant as gay Indiana Jones

Nebula ranks only behind Apple TV+ to me in terms of having a must-have streaming platform. Plus it's *much* cheaper and supports independent creatives. So it's really a win win win and if you have any interest in video essays of every stripe and size you should be grabbing this deal.

Punishment Park (1971) dir. Peter Watkins

RIP Peter Watkins

Watch this show, it is good

Nebula is Youtube for those of you who love video essays, but not the commercials or right wing algorithm trying to ruin your day. Most of my favorite creators are over there and you can try it for free (It's also cheap as hell.) Also, Maggie Mae's show is fucking delightful.

I'm sad today. Peter Watkins was one of the most humanist filmmakers of the 20th century. Punishment Park, The War Game, Culloden, and La Commune (Paris, 1871) are all top tier films. Resan is one of the most powerful series ever. www.theguardian.com/film/2025/no...

Our very first bonus episode. I didn't know Punishment Park at all until I saw a @maggiemaefish.bsky.social video on it, and now it's one of my favorite movies.

i love being lectured about how lazy poor people are, by a bunch of millionaire republicans who refuse to do the job we pay them for

I'm always joking about how i just got an abortion so my oussy (sic) hurts

WHAT DEMOCRATS NEED TO DO NOW by Dude Who Spent the Last 6 Months Being Wrong About Mamdani

Reminder that this is a winning position, and people support it

"leftist are bad because they dont like the TV show i like" is such a galaxy brain libbed up take

the Dem establishment will look at all the money the right wasted on anti-trans ads, and they'll go "they didn't spend ENOUGH money on anti-trans ads"
