I always enjoy an explainer from @saletan.bsky.social and on a Sunday no less! youtu.be/oo71_MBGXRk?...

let's go Peruvian shaman prophesy part II

I feel like I haven’t even been properly lied to about the purposes of this war

I will do my best.

I'm with Tim on this one. We need more public shaming for these pricks. youtube.com/watch?v=9wny...

Pour one out for Dan Bongino

Elton John voice: It seems to me / that you lived your life/ like a fuckin piece of shit

The thing is... many of us have limits, boundaries, places we won't go, and that allows us to imagine that others have limits, boundaries, places they won't go. But they don't--not this administration. So normalizing *anything* just means having to normalize a bleeding edge farther out at some point

Def the MM should interview some Swedes and Norwegians about why they're not all clamoring to come to Arkansas.

If you follow people like @atrupar.com for US news clips, Scott here does the same for Canadian news.

Introduce yourself with 5 concerts you've seen: The Cure Nirvana Leonard Cohen Tyler Childers Jason Isbell

DONALD TRUMP: [asleep, drooling on long red tie] SENATE DEMOCRATS: fine, we give in

If your AI tool is soooo good I cannot even live without it, how come you gotta try to trick me into clicking on it or make it so I can't opt out of it? If it's such an incredible necessary product, how come I don't WANT to use it but am being BULLIED into using it? 🧐

Anyone else up at 6 a.m. on a Sunday because farmers 100 years ago needed the extra daylight?

daylight saving time the moment you start feeling halfway decent about life

The doomerism is real, and contagious.

A balm.

working on a new unified theory of american reality i'm calling "everyone is twelve now"

This is the most satisfying video on the internet.

Portland right now.

Genius detectives but they can’t sniff out the difference between a hawk and a falcon 🙄

Hegseth to generals: if a picture of you in a speedo doesn’t make me wanna jerk off, you’re out

Authoritarianism depends on whiny little bitches getting together with other whiny little bitches to convince themselves they are big and strong in the hopes that their whiny little bitching grows loud enough that they won’t have to do the hard work of looking for the inner courage to be men.

Here is my best guidance, rendered beautifully by the great John Lithgow. I first published these lessons nearly nine years ago, in late 2016. They open the twenty chapters of "On Tyranny: Twenty Lessons from the Twentieth Century." snyder.substack.com/p/twenty-les...

The most thoughtful and poignant thread I've read so far today!

We should all be more like Brett.

This is the most fun I've had on social media since Mike Pence's fly 🪰

THERE WAS NOTHING IN THAT BROWNIE THIS EDIBLE IS BULLSHIT - oNe hOUr laTer-

Pretty sure these are old Neil Diamond lyrics.

People are sleeping on the danger of this one because it's so goddamn stupid, but if there's one lesson we should have learned as a country by now, it's not to underestimate the power of the dumbest shit you've heard in your entire life

Superman didn’t “go woke.” Star Wars didn’t “go woke.” Sesame Street didn’t “go woke.” They were always woke, you’re just fucking stupid.

"On Tyranny" free resources to use and to share, now or any time snyder.substack.com/p/on-tyranny...

This is the most beautiful thing I've seen in a lonnnng time. #thetragicallyhip #Canada

I know I’ve said this several dozen times, but right wing lunatics frankensteined together unrelated Bible verses to create “the antichrist” and a description of what he would look like, and then the guy fucking showed up and they love him.

i don’t practice trans sharia i aint got no crystal ball

Minerva turned 42 this year!🎉 Did you know that vultures are such long lived birds? Turkey vultures like Minerva can live into their 50s, and larger vultures like Andean Condors can make it into their 60s and 70s, possibly even older than that! 🪶

The poll can be found here: today.yougov.com/topics/inter... And the partisan splits (or relative lack there of) manage to be even more impressive

Had no doubt when I went to bed last night we’d find out the strikes weren’t what Trump said they were, that these bozos would try to wiggle out from a war they’d started, and that every Neocon would reveal themselves. This shit is so pathetic and predictable it would be hilarious if not tragic.

Lindsey Graham’s house right now.

Canada issues dire warning!!! Take heed, brethren! www.thebeaverton.com/2025/06/cana...

Happy Birthday to the great Tyler Childers! youtu.be/_QzcrflqDCg?...

Some birds have a classic silhouette. This House Wren has been filling the yard with chatter and was also feeling a bit geometrical this evening! #Birds #photography #wildlife 🪶

Vancouver Island!

Hear me out: birdwatching is inevitable. You can slowly and depressingly descend into it (as this New Yorker article once said) Or you can dive right in. Download Merlin and start to become an expert before the rest of your peers. When they make the descent you’ll be a hero.

⚡️🤞

A reminder tonight: “Be reflective if you must be armed. If you carry a weapon in public service, God bless you and keep you. But know that evils of the past involved policemen and soldiers finding themselves, one day, doing irregular things. Be ready to say no.” Timothy Snyder “On Tyranny”

I haven't had this much fun on social media since Mike Pence's fly! 🪰
