Add it to the list but if Democrats ever return to power every one of these end times freaks needs to be removed from govt service. Go run a church or whatever but no one who thinks like this should be in charge of waging war ffs!

Flipping through this today for no particular reason

for those of you who werent adults during iraq, its hard to overstate how much the media loves war porn. they salivate over pentagon spin briefings. they love stories about all the bombs and how supposedly infallible they are. they love the notion of the commander in chief, in the situation room etc

Love this thing pundits do where they pretend not to understand why students might protest Israel (a country that their school may actively be funding and therefore the protests are about trying to get their school to take action) and not Iran (a country that their school has nothing to do with).

But we were assured* that robo cars were so much safer!! *by people who would profit from the implementation of robo cars

In my younger days I thought pro-war Dems were just spineless capitulators but over time I learned they really just love war. Even now, when Trump is wildly unpopular & this war is wildly unpopular, they just can’t quit loving war.

How long until we start hearing that holding midterm elections would be playing right into the Iranians hands?

NEW @thenation.com: The tools of the War on Terror must be destroyed before Trump uses them to finish building his world order, at home and abroad. What we did at home yesterday is what we do in Iran today is what we will do at home tomorrow. The way we break the cycle is straightforward: abolition.

I feel much safer now that the supreme leader of Iran is dead, don’t you?

One of my favourite sides of politics/media.

Democrats fail to meet the moment, once again.

“The Ayatollah was a very bad man, and we are glad he’s gone, but we have sent a strongly worded letter to President Trump reminding him about the high price of groceries and gasoline.”

There really are not many more prescient quotes than this

Read it again. We killed 85 schoolgirls this morning.

“In 2003, the road to war in Iraq was paved with lies about nonexistent weapons of mass destruction. The path to a new conflict in Iran 23 years later has been lined largely with incoherence or silence.”

I love that people thought Bill Clinton was gonna go scorched earth and share all the dirty secrets he knows about all the terrible powerful men who hung with Epstein, instead of doing what he was obviously always going to do, which is just say “I did nothing wrong!”

Next president will have to rebuild the federal government while fighting a cadre of insane billionaires the whole way. The more bleak things get the more absurd it seems to consider electing some common weasel who wants to be president because he wants to be president

Arrest them.

THEY’RE GOING TO STEAL THE ELECTION. In case you didn’t know already.

Analysis of crash data shows that you're 17 times more likely to die in a vehicle fire if you buy Elon Musk's Tesla Cyber truck than if you had bought a Ford Pinto, the 1970s era car infamous for gas tank explosions in rear end collisions. fuelarc.com/evs/its-offi...

30 years. This video should be on every network.

ICE "should be abolished, but also it should be prosecuted" - Democratic Rep. @sethmoulton.bsky.social, from the centrist wing of the party, tells me he wants his party leadership to go further than just reforming ICE. Doing that is "no longer believable." Full interview: zeteo.com/p/moulton-ic...

Please read this article to the end. Even before ICE got involved, this started because this *blind man who speaks no English and uses a curtain rod as a walking stick* got lost on a walk and some Karen called the police on him and they tasered and beat him bc he didn’t drop the rod. WTF

It’s funny that people act like he’s going to die soon. He’s never going to die. He’s found a way to turn unheard of levels of self-regard and hatred of others into a recipe for immortality.

An ICE agent shot and killed 23-year-old U.S. citizen Ruben Ray Martinez in Texas almost an entire year ago and hid the shooting from the public. It’s only now coming to light, 11 months later, due to Freedom of Information Act requests. What else is the regime hiding from us?

Interesting post about the coordinated anti-AOC smear campaign. It's 2016 again! Fake local news outlets on Facebook getting picked up until eventually it winds up in the Washington Post.

The director of the FBI just travels around the world partying. What a time to be alive

How could anyone in the UK see what is going on in the US right now and vote for the party planning to create an ICE-style agency?!

thinking about how Savannah Guthrie had to cancel her trip to work the Olympics because of her mom’s kidnapping but the guy who heads up the investigative body handling the case was posting pictures of himself in the US hockey locker room today lol

So many line in the sand type things have come and gone but this should really be it

“Think about it for any of us to even listen to me answer this question the Sun had to form out of a giant solar nebula and imagine how much energy that took so I’ll be taking your drinking water now stop being unfair to AI”

This 53 year old man who lived in my neighborhood w/no criminal record & who had been in the US for 30 years, was detained and thrown into a cold cell for days, caught pneumonia and COVID there and deported. He finally died. I am so angry. www.kptv.com/2026/02/21/n...

An ICE agent shot and killed Ruben Ray Martinez, a US citizen and San Antonio resident, in March 2025. Then ICE and the Texas Department of Public Safety covered it up. He was 23 years old. I am calling for a full investigation into this shooting, including why there was an 8-month cover up.

quitting my job and abandoning my family to devote myself full time to my passion: unsubscribing from political texts and emails

"why are you against progress" I yell confidently as my sloppily-implemented algorithms prematurely murder your grandma

Elon posted this yesterday. Just for fun I did it with my before/after cancer PET scans that I had already posted online. In the "before" scan Grok missed the massive tumor lighting up my liver, and in both scans it flagged a non-existent "area of concern" in my chest. Other than that, works great!

Like the entire country just whacked itself on the head with a frying pan and forgot the past five years.

Otherwise, the task of Leftists isn't to argue about LLMs are "good" or not. It is to understand what workers are fighting for, to understand how the glut of synthetic information is undermining democracy, and to mitigate the harms when the house of cards the economy has been built upon falls.

DHS is holding a 2-month-old BABY at a detention facility in Texas. Last night, Juan Nicolás was rushed to the hospital after choking on his own vomit & being unable to breathe. This demands accountability — not a blank check for more cruelty.

And yet its always their fault when terrible Democrats lose elections

Worth remembering that this had bipartisan support in the US govt. Average people knew the case for war was bullshit and a few celebrities did too but no one in the govt spoke out against it.

I mean even Hakeem Jeffries is in there trying to get Epstein to attend a fundraiser is that not even going to be a scandal? Obv Republicans are all in on Trump but Dems are just going to go along with this too?

The end result of the Epstein files in the US could simply be a society begrudgingly acknowledging that the rich get to do whatever they want here and our politicians simply have to chase the money of those rich people no matter how unsavory.

Not sure I agree with these assessments. The initial economic promise of “the Internet” was that it could create all kinds of new business opportunities, launch all sorts of new tech products that we couldn’t even imagine. The bubble that burst in 2000 didn’t stop that from happening. But (1/2)

JFC the NYT is in a race to the bottom with the Washington Post

Someone has sure already made this observation but the fact they can convert all those empty warehouses into prison camps means they could have converted them into housing, community centers, job training centers or, hell, libraries or schools all along. It’s always a matter of will not resources.

You can understand media consolidation into the hands of the very wealthy not just as a product of wealth concentration but also as a means to defend it, with Bezos at the Post being the most obvious example
