hilarious as it was it was probably a strategic misstep in the midst of the rise of an open pedophile to run an opposing candidate with a crackhead son

The combination and sheer number of things that had to go wrong one after another in 2016 which led to this mess is incalculable. This country is simply cursed.

At what point does the New York Times get charged as organizationally conspiring to abet human trafficking of minors.

can someone make a supercut of johnson saying he doesn't know anything

dissatisfied by the New York Times coverage of Zohran Mamdani? great news! I talked to the guy Thursday about his campaign’s success at bringing community together beyond this election, and contextualized how it’s potentially shifted youth engagement with politics by simply listening @teenvogue.com

I can already imagine the videos of lawlessness supposedly happening on the NYC streets, a mix of AI nonsense and clips that turn out to be a completely different place and year, and how these videos will get 10 million views while media critics furiously try to debunk them.

NYC is going to have the world's biggest media-manufactured crime panic in history the second Mamdani is elected. They aren't even going to wait until he is inaugurated. Whether or not you like the guy, you need to start preparing now for the fire hose of disinformation that is about to activate.

www.msnbc.com/opinion/msnb... "... It isn't ICE. It isn't CBP. It's a Frankenstein force, stitched together from multiple agencies but loyal to none. Its purpose is to create a community response designed for social media clicks, rather than to keep communities safe..." This is fascism

"We have a great product that really works. Now to find a spokesman and aesthetic that's synonymous with 'feeling and being chill.'"

tangentially: can we be done with the fantasy that progress is inevitable and young people are proof of this?

I'm prepping a new grad course on the credibility revolution in psychology - focusing on challenges and best practices in methods and measurement - and I'm looking for exciting new papers to add to the reading list. What have you got for me, Bsky? Self-promotion is highly encouraged!

In fairness to Pete Hegseth, the texts may have been sent four drinks into Happy Hour, so it's not like he meant to share highly classified information about war plans in a text chain. We've all been there.

The fact that a reporter was inadvertently given access to this in real time shows that Pete Hegseth & the rest of this crew are bumbling incompetents who are going to get a lot of intelligence officials and others killed at some point. www.theatlantic.com/politics/arc...

kind of #DarkWoke of pete hegseth to get drunk and text trump admin/state secrets to a reporter

truly one of the freakiest things i've ever seen

humans are the most common and widespread species of primate, and the last surviving species of the genus Homo. They are great apes

don’t forget that having everyone drive is much more profitable than having everyone walk, bike, or take transit

conservatives aren’t actually afraid of subways and public transit, they have a very specific goal. they want big cities to seem scary so that less people to move to them / leave them so they’ll move conservative states instead, and so that they can privatize public transit

No way….

And as the aristocracy develops, government tends more and more to act exclusively in the interests of the ruling class

remember stuff like this when they tell you that diversity means a lowering of standards

Inaugurating my arrival in this new space with a slightly creepy cover 😂🦟 Here is my latest signature classics cover illustration for The Metamorphosis by Franz Kafka

Just be nice to everyone (genuinely nice, not selectively nice and not nice in a way that thinly veils you expect something in return). If you want extra credit, show some humility, openness, and self-awareness occasionally. Doors will fly open, you won’t even have to do anything.
