Very well put. It also died long before a large portion of the general population knew it had, and has been careening towards the sun ever since. When late stage capitalism arrived to gobble itself up, journalism being commodified sure felt like one of the biggest dominoes to fall.

For a second it was looking like i would have to take a job at a seedy media conglomerate, but after 12 months of unemployment i am now back to work! And at a job i really like in city government First W in a long while - its crazy how hard it is just to exist and pay bills man lmao 🥲🫩

Jane Goodall, ethologist and conservationist, has died. She was 91

It’s official: AIPAC is trying to buy my election to keep me out of Congress. Apparently, I’m a “dangerous detractor”... by believing Palestinians (like myself and my family) deserve basic human rights. But we’re not going to let AIPAC win.

🚨 New directive NSPM-7 targets "anti-capitalism," “anti-Christian,” and “anti-American" opinions as indicators of extremist violence, authorizing an army of 4,000 counter-terrorism officers to prevent crimes that haven't happened: www.kenklippenstein.com/p/trumps-nsp...

Sickening behavior by this agent. The fact that Mayor Adams has rolled out the red carpet for ICE is a stain on our city.

They just tear-gassed us. They tried to run us over in a van holding a peaceful protester. They shot us with pepper balls. They dragged another protester into the facility.

9 years married, surviving this chaos hellscape with my best fucking friend in the entire world with how awful things are, it still amazes me that life can be this incredible

Watching formerly reputable institutions light themselves on fire and jump into a landfill over AI has been wild

Jesus christ lol. What an absolutely unreal and inhuman thing to type out and send to someone you’ve laid off.

10/10 would introduce to my nervous dog again

The biggest sporting event in the world is happening in our backyard. But most New Yorkers will be priced out of watching it live. Sign our petition calling on FIFA to put game over greed: zohranfornyc.com/gameovergreed

Illinois Gov. J.B. Pritzker (D) on the shooting of Charlie Kirk: "Political violence, unfortunately, has ramped up in this country ... I think there are people who are fomenting it in this country. I think the president's rhetoric often foments it."

studios arent turning to AI. Ownership and dipshit leadership are, and are making everyone's jobs harder in the process.

Hi, I'm Andrew Cuomo. I'm sorry I groped your mom and killed your grandma, but if you give me a fifteenth chance, I promise to throw you out of your apartment.

The former head of Israel's military intelligence just praised the deaths of innocents as "necessary...as a message for future generations." If we do nothing, we will have to tell our children that we stood idly by as millions of people were sent to their graves. www.theguardian.com/world/2025/a...

Kim Davis going from "my religious beliefs demand that I don't facilitate a same-sex marriages" to "my religious beliefs demand that there are NO same-sex marriages anywhere" *should* make Democrats realize there is no "sincere" compromise with bigots on trans issues.

Hmmmmmm

What was it? Oh yeah.

everyone talks about what they’ll do “when fascism is here” and i think it’s just safe to say we are in a fascist regime right now

It’s infuriating how the government has just become trumps bank account. Disgusting how we can never get funding for social programs or public services but the gop can rewrite the constitution daily to make themselves richer

there is money to be made in making our world more miserable, in finding new groups of people to humiliate and degrade. it is also increasingly, the only way to score a jackpot. placing your chips on the correct assault on someone’s dignity

hi. looking to speak to folks in the games industry getting put through the wringer in the job application process rn. unpaid labour, multiple interviews only to get ghosted, sham job listings, scams, AI screening, any and all of that kinda stuff. DM or email at lukeATaftermathDOTsite, thank you!

america first is when you can’t criticize or boycott a government committing a genocide halfway across the world
