This is truly incredible. Shakespeare speaking to RIGHT NOW—on the “mountainish” inhumanity of punishing and casting out strangers from your country.

What the diseased genitalia in fucking acid is this?

[A hand explodes through the snow and ice holding a keyboard. It is the CPSC social media person. With frozen fingers and half-open eyes, they type...] The shutdown has ended. CPSC will resume all normal operations.

This came up in another discussion: In terms of decolonization and AI, the questions I would ask are, "Who owns the tools? Can you do this work with tools you could own?"

Does this chicken fucker think the hologram doctor from Star Trek is real?

📢 Join the nationwide shutdown this Friday, January 30th.  Do your part and help us SHUT IT DOWN for just one day this Friday to say enough is enough & that we want ICE OUT OF EVERYWHERE‼️ Go to nationalshutdown.us to learn more and vote no to ICE funding.

Saying it out loud.

Trump’s increasing weakness makes it more critical than ever that all collaborator Dems be primaried. If we get fair elections 🧿, they will happy coast to victory on that alone and deliver nothing. Best case, that lands us back here again in a few years with the fascists wiser from the setback. 3/

Who needs a Floof hug?

Today feels like a good day to spotlight the recent appeal made by Kurihara Toshio, one of the preeminent Japanese reporters on the war memory beat, to journalists covering war today. Its drawn from his research on the failures of Japan's media establishment in the 1930s: apjjf.org/2025/9/fedman

This is where we are. Seriously, be afraid.

Something lovely for the weekend! Minoan cups made by Bronze Age potters some 3,800 years ago! Heraklion Archaeological Museum, Crete 📷 by me #Archaeology

It's three weeks after the deadline to release the Epstein files.

I think it's a bad sign that every major news media outlet has spent days asking whether or not murder is bad and how much child porn is an okay amount

We're moving into the end game. The fascists are not pretending at all. The takeover is near to complete. No accountability means that there are no legal means to make change. The only non-violent response that we have left would be a general strike.

Palette cleanser.

Jesus fuck. These psychos are heavily armed, and have been granted unlimited immunity. Even if that immunity is nothing but JD Vance spouting off like a deranged whale, *they* heard it, and they will *believe* it.

That there are people interpreting even *this* as her being anything other than peaceful blows my fucking mind.

Rep. @AOC: I understand that Vance believes shooting a young mother of three in the face three times is an acceptable America that he wants to live in, and I do not. That is a fundamental difference between Vance and I. I do not believe that the American people should be assassinated in the street.

When an ex-wrestler is smarter than about a quarter of the United States population.

At this point, we need to start organizing large scale strikes, not just protests. The Republicans have made it very clear that they're largely immune to public opinion. If Walz manages to activate to National Guard in Minnesota, that will also be a step in the right direction.

“Deranged leftist” “Rioter” “Brainwashed” “Stalking” “Very disorderly” “An act of domestic terrorism” First the Trump regime murdered Renee Good. Then the character assassination began.

Reposting this again because the animation makes it clear that Jonathan Ross put himself in that position on purpose.

Some fucking "both sides" twatwaffle was whining about how calling the death of Renee Good murder is "divisive" and "unhelpful." So, here's a clue: There's a line between self defense and murder. It was clearly crossed. And you're on the wrong fucking side of it.

If you ever want to get into a fascinating rabbit hole, I highly recommend learning about the history of arson investigation and the full century of investigation methods that were mostly guesswork (now they’re led by fire science, mostly) www.texasobserver.org/fire-and-inn...

This has always been a Bluesky-first campaign. But as of today, we will no longer be using Twitter. At all. And I'm calling on other candidates to follow suit.

Jesus fuck, people.

If fat shaming worked there'd be no fat people after 4th grade. "Fatshaming is good for fat people actually" is trying to be a shithead with a righteous backbone and it doesn't work. There are no guilt-free passes on being an asshole for no good reason.

I have grown to believe that excessive wealth does something to your brain that is analogous to a serious head injury

Tamir Rice was 12 years old.

Zohran: "I mean, think about when you fly.  We have made it such a difficult experience to go through TSA that there's now a financial incentive to sign up for a separate program that can move you through it quicker. We have monetized the dysfunction."

You do not, under any circumstances, gotta hand it to Reagan.

Way to kill your entire fucking brand, wow

This is illegal! The Trump administration is instructing managers across the federal government (regardless of employee performance) to ensure that at least 80 percent of staff receive a 3 out of 5 rating, making them easier to terminate and easier to justify in court.

I think both High Laurie and Simon Pegg should be ashamed of themselves. Others too. It's one thing if you're a struggling voice actor offered a job like this. But those two didn't Need this. I'm sure others in the cast didn't either. #translivesmatter

The legislation passed 225 to 201 vote. Seven Democrats voted for it. Adam Gray, D-California Jared Golden, D-Maine Marie Gluesenkamp Perez, D-Wash Don Davis, D-N.C. Vicente Gonzalez, D-Texas Henry Cuellar, D-Texas This is how incompetent and/or untrustworthy @hakeem-jeffries.bsky.social is

Non-man: Asks a question. Man: Well, do this. Non-man: I already said that didn't work. Man: Oh. Well, then I'm not sure. Men? Why are you like this? If you have nothing original, thoughtful or useful to contribute... maybe don't?

86 sitting Democratic House members, including 2 from Colorado, just voted yes on H. Con. Res. 58, Denouncing the horrors of socialism. This is why Europeans say we have NO left leaning Party in the US. This is why I don't trust the Democratic Party as far as I can kick their gold plated Ass.

"History was full of the bones of good men who'd followed bad orders in the hope that they could soften the blow. Oh, yes, there were worse things they could do, but most of them began right where they started following bad orders." -Terry Pratchett, Jingo #Discworld

I am truly fortunate that, on this Trans Day of Remembrance, I have no Trans friends who haven't survived. I have watched some amazing people grow into themselves once they finally took that leap into recognizing their own identity and asking the rest of us to do the same.

Ah, such fun. Once they've proven that they're unrepentant, misogynistic, classist penis pimples, a little recreational vulgarity is a nice way to pass the time.

Damn it, @acwise.bsky.social, I wasn't planning on crying tonight. Not about James or Jane or Wendy, and now I'm all weepy about all three.

The fuckers that are the Old Guard of the Democratic Party really DO NOT GET IT. Some of them have been in office long enough that they voted for the Dems when they were the party of Jim Crow.

It really does seem like refusing to physically engage while screaming the worst and most defiant abuse you can think of at these gestapo assholes has tremendous potential to be spectacularly effective

Let me put this simply @andrewcuomo You're a bigot, a bully, and an asshole. Fuck you, fuck you for shaming your late father, fuck you for damaging the people of this state, fuck you for embarrassing our city, and get the FUCK out of New York.
