An old school blogger still blogging in the face of an internet that lost its way? SUBSCRIBED.

This poor woman got done dirty, and it's shitty to watch people accuse her of trying to run again. She knows how that will go. She's very smart! 2028 will be some dude, leftists will try to sabotage whoever it is, but Trump will have ran the GOP so hard into the ground that it won't matter.

i think people should consider the extent to which bannon, a known bullshit artist, knows that you will see this and panic. www.democracydocket.com/news-alerts/...

kamala’s making a nintendo game

“burn the entire democracy down and start over” is an opinion equivalent to “apocalyptic times are good because the rapture is coming and I’ll go to heaven” in that it’s a way people give themselves permission to do none of the complex and difficult things that would make things a little better now

Turns out the real anti-fascists were the Democrats we elected along the way.

there's a lot of people who mock liberals with "what are you going to do, vote harder" and yes actually that is exactly what will happen if you try to intimidate people outside voting places like this! that's how you drive presidential-level turnout from normie libs in a midterm

"They came in here like an occupying army. That’s what it feels like and that’s how they’re conducting themselves. No one in Minneapolis believes for a second the pretense that this is about fraud or immigration enforcement or whatever. It’s absurd." — @whstancil.bsky.social

Also one of the big reasons Dems aren't protecting Bill Clinton is that he keeps loudly saying he doesn't want protection because he has nothing to hide. The whole dustup about him testifying is because he, not Republicans, wanted the hearing to be public.

A whole eight-episode MCU show about two dudes being bros, where the climax is merely the reveal of the hero's true powers? To save a friend, and zero punching? Keep it up, Marvel, I think you're on to something here!

If I ever wrote a phrase as stupid and ridiculous as "valorously setting a dumpster on fire", I'd apologize to everyone I'd ever met for the shame I'd brought them and then kill myself.

Yeah, I’m thinking this is the best Marvel show. @torionic.bsky.social with the take I’ve been dying to read:

it makes them feel edgy and in their extremely narcissistic view of what protest is "did this make me feel good and signal to the in-group that I'm cool" is really all its about.

i think it’s cool and great that a bunch of cosplaying keyboard operators have decided they can and should try to gatekeep a movement of genuinely heroic solidarity and resistance to own the libs

what the fuck are you talking about

normal dorks co opting criminal anti-snitch behavior has got to be the nerdiest thing that has happened in the modern internet

Gonna be real here for a sec and say that when it comes to MN's really effective resistance to ICE that the "normies" completely mogged the Internet communists and they're very obviously insanely fucking bitter about it for some reason instead of being excited to work with Evelyn Normielibs

Vividly remember the genuinely gross period when several big accounts were insisting that in fact killing yourself in public was *the* rational and healthy way to respond to horrible current events; for others to do, of course, not them

See the thing is I don’t like ICE and I like lighting things on fire, so the way it will help is…what was the question again?

Stancil is right about this. White nationalist weirdos set fires all over in Minneapolis in 2020. It’s bugfuck stupid to pretend it’s a good idea to let them get away with it.

I thought these people's entire thing is that women don't talk. Why is this one talking?

*rubs eyes, does a double take*

The days following Luigi made this 8,000% clear.

And it's shockingly easy to do! "Zero Fail" chronicles the history of the Secret Service and the overwhelming thesis is that it's a goddamn miracle that presidents aren't dropping like flies. The variables are in favor of the loony and even moreso when the target doesn't have government protection.

Well, it’s official. We need to eat that fucking groundhog. Goddammit.

When we found out Zohran Mamdani is trump’s penpal we were told that being friendly with donald trump was critically important harm reduction

Well… damn. (but the good kind)

Reporter: A Democrat won a special election in Texas in an area that you won by 17 points Trump: I’m not involved in that. That’s a local race. I don’t know anything about it. I had nothing to do with it.

Bluesky: Dems are a feckless loser party who will never win another election again Reality:

Idk, if I was Christian and a judge was signing orders against my gov "Jesus wept," id probably never be able to look in the mirror again

This 1,000%. I love it. I hope it gets past any possibly existing superhero show stigma to receive acting nominations the next time those come around because these two co-leads are simply amazing.

As a respite from… all of this, cannot recommend Wonder Man enough. Easily one of the best, if not *the* best Marvel show. Don’t let that wrapper stop you. The hype around the Yahya and Ben Kingsley bromance is real.

It is a well known fact that the only successful way to fight fascism is for the progressives to (checks notes) tear themselves apart.

We need to shut down the word "performative" until we can figure out what the hell is going on. Of course adopting symbols of protest and resistance is performative! Performance is a core strategy for mass movements!! That's why the call them demonstrations!!!

Seeing that photo of Obama putting the Medal of Freedom on Tom Homan circulate again. It's fake. Homan did get a civil service award during the Obama administration, but it wasn't the Medal of Freedom, it wasn't a medal (it was a certificate), and Obama didn't present it to him in person.

Interesting I was told the Democrats on the Hill have been letting the republicans walk all over them

STEPHEN MILLER: so you've gone through all of these files and made sure there's nothing incriminatory about Trump or his friends and associates, right KASH PATEL: *standing in line at berghain dressed like the Ikea monkey* oh yeah definitely

Can’t believe they released the Epstein files to cover up for the Melania movie.

-Finally get the normies engaged. -Rage against the regime is at incandescent levels. -Piss it all away because generating clout for the activist class is more important than exposing government tyranny. Even when walmarts are firebombed, Contrapoints remain undefeated.

All of us right now

The party of free speech is at it again. Also remember Florida was the first to pass its (unconstitutional) law suggesting that no political speech could ever be removed from social media, and desantis did a whole big thing about how Florida had the strongest free speech protections.

Remember how CNN had this guy on a couple months ago to call for civility in the wake of Charlie Kirk's murder?

Love how former Reporter Against Disinformation Ben Collins has essentially turned The Onion into his own personal cog in the anti-Democratic Party disinformation complex.

Okay so how many people On Here clicked the KGET link and read the article

A socialist just became mayor of NYC by running on the dem line you dipshit

In that same vein, I've heard people say Democrats should apologize for the 2003 AUMF. Why should Democrats apologize for what at the time was seen as a complete rebuke to the GOP and stopped the planned invasion from happening until Bush went and lied to the UN about WMDs for 6 months?

"why can't I just vote for good things once and then have politics stop" - a bluesky story

The only road to accomplish this runs through the Democrats taking both houses of Congress in eleven months and this asshole is doing his utmost to ensure the Democrats are as unpopular as possible by demanding the impossible

ICE and BP have 125% of the FY26 PB request frontloaded in approps every year through 2029, either you don't know this in which case you're doing the "bluesky is my therapist" thing, or you do and you're just cloutscreeching
