god i missed this one but holy fuck it is perfect

As I said, "it was a political hire." We know that because Bari Weiss had no experience in broadcast news, and none as a reporter. That by itself is astounding. Now the people from CBS still fighting have to make sure that the "political hire" story comes out. Variety: variety.com/2026/tv/news...

St. Petersburg failed to elect a new Pope.

amazing

Say it with me: There is no presumption of regularity. There never has been, by the way. It’s only now that it’s gotten so flagrant and egregious that judges are finally taking notice.

I'm here you fuckaas bitch

So they’ve finally been talking to the oil executives huh

Nor is this the end.

What will you have to say for yourself, when we drag you kicking and screaming from the halls of power, condemned to a fate you would impose on so many for the mere crime of existence? Will empathy still be a sin? What of mercy? How’ll will to power serve you when you’re left wanting in totality?

So... General strike and fill the streets 24/7, or are we just going to continue deluding ourselves that someone will save us all somehow?

Happy Pride month you buncha queers

But no more of this.

Okay y’all can we get @thedreydossier.bsky.social that Pulitzer nomination now?

y’all @yachtclubgames.bsky.social COOKED with #MinatheHollower. Legit GOTY contender. I already forced myself into weeks of corporate servitude with actually having a social life this weekend, so what’s another twenty clams? #worth

i feel personally attacked. #booksky

@nytimes.com hit a “POTUS said a thing” bingo blackout today.

admire and model thyself after the whale! Do thou, too, remain warm among ice. Do thou, too, live in this world without being of it.

and yall thought il-9 was ridiculous

amazing this is not a skit

my favorite erick erickson moment is when he said that his family refused to eat asian food on the anniversary of pearl harbor to honor the tragedy. a reporter reached out to his mom to confirm whether this was true and she was like “i don’t know what the fuck he is talking about”

Our girl @thedreydossier.bsky.social is seriously into Pulitzer territory at this point, and between this exposé and her ballroom coverage we really need to start having that conversation.

🚨 “THEY’RE ATTACKING PROTESTERS… FOR NO REASON AT ALL.” 🚨 Pepper spray is now being deployed during chaotic clashes between ICE agents and protesters outside Delaney Hall ICE prison on Day 7 of the hunger/labor strike. @jordanchariton.bsky.social⬇️

The news cycle where the drudge report convinced a bunch of people that The Revenant included a scene where Leonardo DiCaprio was sexually assaulted by a bear is a pivotal and under-discussed moment in American history and a prism through the entire last decade can be understood

🇻🇦 Pope Leo XIV calls for AI to be ‘disarmed’ Pope Leo XIV has called for the "disarming" of artificial intelligence in his long-awaited manifesto on the rapidly developing technology, and warned of "new forms of slavery" behind its rise.

hey y’all, Caelan is at the front of the front of the fight against brazen, harmful AI, and a heckin’ good journalist to boot. If Caelan needs help, and y’all are in a position to do so, that’s what mutual aid is all about.

not with a bang, folks, but a whimper and a bead of sweat.

boy howdy i always thought sobriety had to be droll but i sure am learning some things about myself lately… anyways carry on. g’night good morning good morrow.

we live in hell

Rapist moves to kidnap and imprison rape victim for proving in court that said rapist raped her. The Department of Justice has shed their last onionskin veneer of legitimacy, exposing their angry inch to a nation in freefall.

First inquiry is out! Moving on to the House of Representatives tomorrow, and then to statewide races. I'll update on here and Substack as we go and as replies come in. #directactionproject #directaction #mutualaid

They do not want you to own a computer. Look at DwarfStar4. It can run a SOTA LLM locally on high-end consumer hardware, something unthinkable even a year ago. Local LLMs with the same functionality as GPT etc. running on a gaming PC is inevitable. And it would bring hyperscalers to their knees.

Holy shit, the Times actually published a decent opinion piece. #incarceration #prison #time

This is an extremely important list for anyone calling Cornyn or his ilk a “moderate”. There is cowardice, sycophantic “please-notice-me-daddy” cowardice, and outright sedition. These are your three flavors of the GOP right now. Cornyn lands comfortably in the middle of the spectrum.

why am i doomscrolling Bluesky right now & not: • working on the novel • taking a shower • sleeping • contemplating the existential dread that comes with my 🧠 recently, suddenly deciding it’s not okay existing in a vacuum like it has for the past five years without conplaint. • having a snack

i need to make some friends to keep these odd hours with. then again, i went to an open mic today & it turned out to be canceled because of social meetup. the host asked me twice if that’s what i was there for. it ought to have been, but i said no maybe next one and ran away. 💀

guys so far no possum i think she’s moved on to greener pastures

guys i sealed the air ducts but the possum is still inside. this is now night 3. i should just open the vent and leave out a fruit cup, right? i’m going to open the vent and leave out a fruit cup. i’ll report in the morning. go read my novel excerpt.

Okay, so remember how I said I haven't been posting fiction b/c I've been working on this lit-horror novel that I drafted on an old Swintec typewriter? So here's a chapter out of that novel. It's a little depressing, & kind of gross, but if you're like me and dig depressing & gross, well... #booksky

everybody’s talking about how they can smell ants. i said it was bullshit. i can’t smell ants, never could. but i just killed an ant. and it smelled like bleach. i’ve lived in this town for half my life. where is God and why did he change the ants?

@nycsanitation.bsky.social I’d like to report a sweep

tl;dr this man had some sort of glass object burst in his rectal cavity, or he ded. there is no world where any of this is normal behavior for any kind of illness.

Thanks, Vonnegut. 💜

To be fair, Iran has a pretty easy job of making Americans believe “the president of the United States is a fucking pedophile” when the president of the United States is literally a fucking pedophile.

No

Lessons learned this Memorial Day weekend: 1. I am terrible at people. 2. People are terrible. 3. Motherfuckers, I told y’all there was a possum down there.
