"i'm graham platner and i love carving up 14 year olds in kabul. i can't get enough of it" (nodding) "because of esoteric fascist reasons" (spit take)

Drew Toshiro Mifune tonight.

you do have to go back on twitter to get any kind of real picture about anything because this did not make it over here. anyway this is an acceptable statement for almost all "politics heads" in America but tells you *exactly* the same thing as the Nazi tattoo. Maine's own Kongo Müller

new stephen king novel about nazi oyster farmer in maine that went overseas to kill people for money and came back hungry for power

Maybe Mr Platner simply got the tattoo volunteering to Defend Ukraine’s Sovereignty

Israeli occupation forces in Gaza misidentified and shot without warning at (presumably also Israeli Jewish) contractors who were working on a security fence.

idk, something about how the revelation of a totenkopf tattoo is universally taken to be damning, and, like, obviously is, but we've gotten to a place where twenty years of military service to the Bush forever wars washes right off

the couple guys I know who were communists that went Nazi did it almost entirely because they couldn’t metabolize something related to non-normative gender and sexuality entering their lives. it’s clear they find it easier to talk about i.e., racial politics than that

Haven't seen anyone comment on it yet but this local Illinois journalist has revealed that internal AIPAC fundraising emails call both Kat Abu and Daniel Biss anti-American for their opposition to Israeli apartheid.

we're all wordlessly seated in these wooden chairs at scotts hotel and casino in 1976 watching you hit gutterball after gutterball for all eternity

maybe he just likes Death in June

wow the insane euro lego forum from 25 years ago is still around and there's Polish guys on there who derogatorily refer to non-yellow minifigs as "Fleshies" like a slur

people think this isn't feasible but the average american spends ~20% of their income on car-related expenses and in your wildest dreams you can not even imagine how much public transportation that could build

for 500 billion they could have invented a kind of smoking thats good for you but nooo we had to get shit ai

Shadow of Chornobyl is the only good STALKER of the trilogy. It’s a True Detective S1 situation. The long development made it what it needed to be, not what they thought it should be or were resourced to produce

@recolston.bsky.social makes some great points about the overall framing, the implication that the Israel-Palestine context is something like two functionally sovereign states fighting over an internationally disputed territory that both have legitimate claims to but neither has control over it.

Coat and jacket drives are also welcome right now. Do you have mutual aid and other groups in your community that help unhoused people? Reach out to them if you are willing to coordinate a winter clothing drive. Especially if you are a self-directed person who can manage projects.

I've mentioned this before but it bears repeating. Don't leave FSA funds on the table at the end of the year. LOTS of places like homeless shelters etc... would love donations of FSA eligible items. For the past 2 years, I've used left over funds to shop here: fsastore.com - then donate the items.

Proud papa moment: my son J published a letter in the @nytimes.com today (in print tomorrow) on the need to think our definitions of autism.

when the regime falls, we will have to try and convict a whole lot of officials for their crimes. the crimes are real, but these will still be political indictments. "no political indictments, even if they committed the crimes alleged" is not a sustainable principle. it's part of how we got here.

10 months in and we're getting drunk SS members asking local cops if they're Haitian

Palestinian babies like Anas have been sickened & starved for 2 yrs in Israel's genocide. Bluesky deletes them relentlessly. Please help by sharing & donating to cover the costs of food, healthcare, shelter, Sally's child is severely ill from malnutrition & in urgent need:

New: hackers just doxed hundreds of DHS, ICE, FBI, and DOJ officials. I went through the data. In many cases does look legitimate, sometimes includes residential addresses. “Mexican Cartels hmu [hit me up] we dropping all the doxes wheres my 1m [1 million].” www.404media.co/hackers-dox-...

Putting these in a thread with an image so it’s easier for me to find

absolutely nothing libidinally excites DSA people like playing the teacher’s lieutenant. the soberly-downturned edges of the mouth are evidence of total ecstasy

It's just kind of odd because he's used this effective line over and over, "I'm running to be mayor of NYC," emphasizing that he's focused on local issues. Arresting Netanyahu is substantively just but ineffectual. Meanwhile, he'll have more power over the NYPD than anyone else in the world

In Japan, when autumn arrives, the wild birds known as MOZU fly in. They call loudly, as if asserting their territory. I enjoy this sound as one of the sounds of autumn. #Illustration #LineArt #CommentPls

minutes after this he is sucking NYPD cock and meekly co-signs warehousing the homeless

BREAKING: Mamdani touts endorsement from Colonel von Stauffenberg, founder of Nazis Against Hitler

The plan is, and always has been, to export Gaza.

the MI5 show fucking sucks so much I think a lot of you are more bored than you understand

major professional milestone passed today. I am also practicing a little oblique-speaking

Patrick Nagel

this is not quite an anti-trust tragedy but it's certainly some kind of capital market regulation problem if people can buy assets that provide huge public goods specifically in order to destroy the public good provision

things bullets say

moving on to STALKER: Clear Sky

Pritzker should be held responsible for the police nominally under his control; that being said, this is going to be a problem for every politician you try to sell us on as a savior. Because everyone of them, and many of their supporters, refuses to actually confront what the police are doing.

This is how you get glowing profiles of how much Mamdani loves the police and praises his ability to keep the people subject to police violence silent.

The over-reliance on standardization as the mechanism for writing instruction really was a pretty unbeatable context to produce de-professionalized teachers okay with using AI to grade

I remember a time when people would rather kill themselves than say something like this out loud, much less in a paper of record www.theguardian.com/lifeandstyle...
