driving around town in my cybertruck bumping the hit single "jailbait" by olivia nuzzi

If you call it a “male immaturity epidemic,” a very different set of phenomena come into focus, as this thread shows

it does feel like an intense societal problem that the founder of palantir, the biggest survellience company, thinks like this

I don’t know about all of you, but Carton is still my president.

I'm starting to wonder how much "the male loneliness epidemic" is just straight and bisexual women identifying low-effort, mean, and incompetent men and choosing not to date, marry, and tolerate them anymore

since "rebuilding democracy" requires going back to first principles, may I humbly suggest we try something else instead (socialism)? It's like tearing down your fixer-upper and starting from scratch. You could choose anything! Why not that?

I and others have repeatedly stated that the post they are referring to is fake in the post and in the comments, but people still insist on thinking it’s real. This country is incredibly cooked.

Now I’m going to be saying “Ni howdy” all day.

What makes me angriest about the fake AI videos where people yell at ICE is that there’s a million actual videos, there’s actual priests being pelted with pepper balls, it’s just that the real priest didn’t say “we worship the real God not your ORANGE one” so he wasn’t quippy enough

You know what, if judgement and grossness is “culturally normal“ now then I want politicians who are culturally abnormal

If we want to end fascism in the U.S. we have to dismantle the controlled opposition party first. Period.

people on this site will get extremely angry with you if you say you won't vote for this.

If you have any documented instances of cocaine use in the Pentagon or by senior administration officials, my Signal is jmkatz.18

I often falter, but this is the path.

I cannot stress enough that is some rando responds to something you reposted trying to draw you into a “but have you considered” discussion of it, they are not acting in good faith, and you just block. Please, embrace the blue sky way. block. block. block.

Joe Biden started his senate career opposing Vietnamese refugee resettlement in the US. Obama ramped up deportations to record levels and gave Tom Homan an award. There is literally no one in the top levels of Dem politicians who is affirmatively pro-immigrant.

The RSF just attacked a kindergarten, killing at least 33 children in Sudan. Meanwhile, the Trump Admin. continues to sell arms to the UAE, who are aiding these atrocities. Imagine if Trump spent as much time trying to stop the killing, as he did getting the UAE to invest in his crypto coin.

"oh but Ernest we'll push Newsom left" lol no you wont

I think it’s ok to admit that the Nazis borrowed from US white supremacy and current US white supremacy is borrowing from their innovations and previous US white supremacy Both can be true at once

TFW hypothetical alternative futures are all you have.

“She showed up as scheduled, and when she arrived, officers were asking everyone what country they were from, and if they said a certain country, they were told to step out of line and that their oath ceremonies were canceled.” www.wgbh.org/news/local/2... @gbhnews.bsky.social

"Soon, CNN will run live odds on world events where its viewers can gamble on them in real time on their smartphones."

I’m sharing a Palestinian account every day and today is Bilal. Bilal was a software developer before this who worked on sites like Upwork. He is living in tents with his family of 19 including many nieces and nephews and his children Muhammad, 6, Hour, 2 and little Fares who is just 40 days old.

This elderly corrupt bigot is who Pelosi handpicked and supported instead of a young woman running on abortion rights, causing her to lose the primary by 0.6%. Meaning, Pelosi's endorsement was a deciding factor in that election, and she picked this fucking turd over Jessica Cisneros.

Dems ONLY policy is “lol what are you gonna do? Vote for the other guy? Fuck off.” And then they get upset when we decide to listen and fuck off. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ You want my vote? Give me something to vote FOR.

Liberals are now doing their version of Marine Todd. They forgot to add that after she said it, everybody clapped.

It's for their audience of mutant goblins who over time have learned that anything not made specifically for them can still be enjoyed by deliberately defiling it

maybe given the current political situation, finding things about which to say “the president has a point” is not only not a good look but actively bad and fucked up? Maybe maybe resist the impulse to say “well I agree with this chump” and find something else to talk about instead?

The ICE goons are in my city. They are abducting people off the street. Videos coming out hourly of it. It feels like what we learned of Nazi occupation times. But most of us seem to think they're not here for *me* this time so I guess what are we to do about it. I hate all of this

I need people to understand that Democrats are NOT going to melt ICE. They are not going to willingly tear down executive power while they're the ones that hold it. They are not going to suddenly become better on the border and matters of migration. This has been consistent for decades now.

The way anti-vaxxers and conservatives have carelessly thrown away children’s lives has unironically made me feel we should reclaim the “pro-life” label and start yelling at these people for killing kids

People who bring up Trump’s criminal record are incredibly ineffective to me. Given the chance I would have elected Eugene Debs while he was doing time. I don’t give a shit about criminality, I care about morality.

I can't stop thinking about the purported drug smugglers being murdered by the US military. The punishment for drug offenses isn't the death penalty. This is just bloodlust and men in suits playing with lives they don't care about. It's truly grotesque and gravely compromises this country.

FORT LAUDERDALE, Fla. (AP) — Federal judge orders unsealing of grand jury transcripts from abandoned Jeffrey Epstein investigation in Florida.

If the Supreme Court makes you mad keep in mind that within the last week Democratic senators have been voting for GOP judges to get on the federal bench

Remember folks, during winter every ten degree temperature drop lowers your tire’s PSI by 1 so it’s very important to go to the gas station and notice that the air thing doesn’t work and then do that five more times at five different gas stations

stop saying kegsbreath to me. grow up

41 minutes is a long time to sit in your air conditioned office watching men struggle to survive as you decide to kill them.

Cary-Hiroyuki Tagawa, prolific actor known for his roles in “Mortal Kombat,” “Last Emperor” and “Man In The High Castle,” has died at 75

There are so many people living lives of quiet dignity despite horrific medical news or poverty or tragedy where every day they still wake up and try to be good people in the world even as the world pushes against them and it makes me even angrier at the absolute shitheads that rule over things

The fact that a second strike like that in an armed conflict is definitely a war crime should not completely negate the fact that *there is no war* and ALL the strikes are cold-blooded murder. The whole chain of command are murderers.

On Dec. 4, 1969, Chicago Black Panthers Fred Hampton and Mark Clark were assassinated by Chicago Police and the FBI

A corrupt president pardons a corrupt member of Congress for corrupt reasons. With multiple guilty pleas establishing a bribery-laundering scheme, Hakeem Jeffries still called the case “thin” and sought cover in a bribery-plagued Supreme Court. A lesson in squandering potential inroads with voters.

I’m telling you, it’s ALL performative with these Democrats. They’re the Washington Generals of politics. It’s not a real game. It’s a show.

Hakeem Jeffries will never lead the Dems where they need to go in order to help the people. He will choose restoration over reform because he has been groomed by the Establishment. I wish people could finally accept this.
