And no, Outlook, I don't need you to summarize that subject line. I can tell them to fuck off on my own. This era in tech can't be over soon enough.

Kick out trans people, badger women until they leave, make up the difference with over the hill stoners. Much warfighter. So lethality. Wow.

FIFA vs Trump, you say? The two most corrupt and venal clusterfuck administrations on Earth?

Fascinating that the attacking group blurred out the red cross indicating that it’s a medevac bird (you can still tell from the winglets and nose bump that it’s an HH-60M)

I’ll never get over the fact that the people that fucking hit me for misbehaving when I was a kid and the church that told me I was forever doomed to hell if I didn’t behave all fell in line behind this sociopath and support him to this day.

See the wiggly graph with the sudden, straight vertical line? That's where Trump's cronies suddenly started buying oil futures yesterday. 15 minutes before Trump's "surprise" (and false) announcement that we were ending the war on Iran. They made almost $600 million in 15 minutes. *Insider Trading*

someday we’ll learn the gritty details of how all this anti-woke / right wing backlash was astroturfed — a minority sentiment amplified by a handful of opportunists and hundreds of thousands of bots, all working to sow discord and weaken The Empire from within

Yes and a majority of American voters thought the alternative was worse. American counterintelligence does not exist.

this would confirm the "they just feed him AI slop all day" theory

Apropos of nothing in particular, “Antifa Bryant” would make a great drag or derby name.

The Content War

Schadenfreudelicious!

JUST IN: Democrats tonight have flipped a GOP-held state House seat in Florida. And not just any seat: This is the district that contains Mar-a-Lago. (It voted for Trump by 11% in 2024). That's right: Trump will now be represented by a Democrat, Emily Gregory, in Tallahassee.

Very excited to have @olafurdarri.bsky.social and Kari Skogland bringing Dead Weight to the screen!

The president’s goal is to win. Nobody has successfully explained to him that is too vague.

Downtown Indianapolis on weekend evenings is wall-to-wall cars that I cannot imagine driving on this city’s shell cratered roads. My Z3 has quaintly tall sidewalls by modern standards and I buy the little BMW roundel center caps in quantity and have had cracked rims welded twice.

Some States in the US require the Ten Commandments printed and posted on classroom walls. But since they can't get an agreed list of what these are from their churches, they have chosen the mash-up made by a Jewish filmmaker for a Hollywood blockbuster movie.

Same.

Two of my absolute favorite things about the Bible are (a) nobody agrees on how to number the Ten Commandments, and (b) there are very obviously more than ten of them

I got inspired. So you can be a sicko yourself too 😂 It has a "secret but expected" message in the back.

I think there are two different things that are being conflated here. Enjoying Harry Potter in abstract is kind of none or my business, sure. Doing literally anything to give money to a living creator who has made it her life's journey to ruin the lives of trans people and Scottish politics, well

The U.S. Army relaxed standards during the worst days of the war in Iraq--all the way through the surge. I was in front line units during that entire time, including battalion command. 1/5

This post clearly articulates why folks MUST boycott this franchise. It is *extremely* documented what she's doing with her money. I used to cosplay Narcissa Malfoy back in the day. I met some of my closest friends at HP cons. We're still friends. We walked away from HP entirely. Please walk away.

Casino is xenophobic, Season 6 of Grey’s Anatomy is xenophobic autonomist dreck, British roleplaying games are xenophobic, survival horror is generally xenophobic, neurodiversity is xenophobic. Masscult under anarcho-transprimitivism is inherently xenophobic. Sorry to spoil your 'fun'.

once again: this is not what she wants this may serve the broader political project of the ellisons but it is also not what they want (they want to set the agenda like the murdochs) but bari, particularly? she wants to be seen as a news savant and now she’s a laughingstock she hates it

ya in some ways it serves the interests of the megawealthy to just burn down CBS News too but this is absolutely not what they were trying to do. they don't care about ratings because they care about making money but because there's no point in airing propaganda if no one's watching it.

I mean, the whole region is quite literally within "striking distance" of Iran

We will all one day be confronted with the “Holy shit, were my abs that flat?” moment.

Once you have an infestation of wandering moody jazz saxophonists on your couch, they're super hard to get rid of.

May of 1992…

I just need to rewrite the intro to this piece 5-6 more times, then surely it’ll be FINE.

I had a Battalion XO in Afghanistan who was like this - never saw any combat, thought of it as beneath him - but put our detachment in such a bad, mine-ridden spot and demanded vehicular movements for “presence” that I called home, kept it vague, but basically told them I was about to be badly hurt.

One of my absolute fave portraits. Thank you @shelbylapre.bsky.social so very much. ❤️

The oldest photo of me on Al Gore's internet. March, 2006. Selfie in a car window, with my first digital camera, an Olympus C770UZ. We're talking 4 megapixels, baby.

It’s really important to understand that “Don’t Stand So Close To Me” and “Hot For Teacher” are equally creepy and for the exact same reasons.

The oldest photo of me on Al Gore's internet 24y.o. me with my boss's Pentax in my hands and my own Canon AE-1P & FD 50mm f/1.8 over my shoulder, with a press pass doing photography at the 1992 First Union Grand Prix in ATL, watching some rookie cyclist named Lance Armstrong win his first big race.

It was another era…

Meanwhile, elsewhere, Iran is trolling Trump so hard. bsky.app/profile/rola...

The bison, as it turns out, bat last.

It’s funny ‘cause it’s true.

the only good podcasts are the secret type not illustrated here, which is "graduate student explains his doctoral research to you over 800 episodes"

If military genius, why so easy to dunk on?

Lee already has a fitting monument to his legacy.
