Just about every person under 25 I know has mentioned “cannibalism in the Epstein files” to me in the last day or two, so I checked. It’s just blood libel based disinformation making its way through Insta and TikTok. Again. I’m so fucking tired

Jeff Bezos makes enough money to fully fund this literally every two minutes.

social media is an mmo that happens to sometimes pay out in realworld influence and one of the important factors for success is how many NEETs and schizophrenics your faction commands, like cavalry and archers

Absolutely hilarious

So this guy reached out a couple weeks ago and asked how he could help as a designer, and I said I’d boost anything he made and sold as long as he committed to sending a share of the proceeds went to our key local orgs protecting immigrants and observers. And he did! So check ‘em out :)

once again these things boil down to “is your group a bohemian cultural identity” or “is your group actually trying to do things?” and the key tell is whether your activity centers on policing of in-group behavior or whether it centers on, again, tangible goals

Re-evaluating my stance on “eye for an eye” style punishment

vice signaling

things are happening.

me, having an oracular vision: so what if capital was like, one guy. and that one guy was, like, a pedophile, and he was also patriarchy. he runs harvard and the trilateral commission. he gave bill gates the clap the two stoned dudes sitting on my couch with me: bro why are you like this

This is a blockbuster report. Last spring, the National Security Agency (NSA) detected evidence of an unusual phone call between an individual associated with foreign intelligence and a person close to Donald Trump, according to a whistleblower’s attorney briefed on the existence of the call.

gotta agree with this. at some point we all have to contend with what good faith is actually for and extend it accordingly

The first big fascist wave in Germany and Italy was driven by the humiliation and suffering of WW1. Our current wave of American fascism is largely driven by rich guys who want it to be illegal for you to laugh at them.

82 is too old to reliably do this job, no matter how good you used to be, and I won’t apologize for saying so. Jobs that are absolutely mission critical to public health and safety have an expectation of retirement, but somehow we aren’t allowed to have that same expectation for national leaders

Eliminating ICE is the modern equivalent of opposing the Iraq War, and right now there are two types of Democrats: those who can see where the ball is moving and go to it, and those who will be swept away because they refused to do so.

BREAKING: Jeffries finally discovers effective messaging No seriously, this is good shit. More of this

doubt the Dem Tea Party at your own peril, it's not that saying this stuff is popular (though it is) it's that people who say this stuff are reaching the point of saying 'fuck it' and running themselves

Amy Klobuchar running for Governor of Minnesota

Oh, these ones? Poor baby

Haven't seen this angle mentioned, but it's an extraordinary national security risk to have an anonymous "staffer" impersonating the president of the United States, posting racist memes, from his personal accounts, at 10 PM.

I am done with collaborationist bullshit

Clapping my flippers together and honking like a harbor seal when a Super Bowl ad for a condiment or gambling app featuring two celebrities unexpectedly reveals a third celebrity as its punchline. Bouncing a ball around on my snout. My wife has to throw me a herring to get me to calm down.

1. It was not an accident. 2. It was not a staffer. 3. While the president may have dementia his racism is not due to dementia. 4. He isn’t sorry. He means every racist thought he shares. 5. His base agrees with him. 6. He will do it again. 7. No one in power will hold him accountable.

i like that the press corps will have no follow up questions to this, like who the staffer posting Official Government Communications at 1am is supposed to be, and what consequences they are supposed to have suffered for doing this

This remains the division that matters most It’s not even close

It should’ve been obvious in retrospect. All we had to do to bring the CEOs around on Trump was threaten to work from home out of fear! Nobody is skipping the return to office order on Tim Apple’s watch

DOGE made short work of this one, to the extent it existed

Whether or not you buy into this sort of thing, it’s almost certainly bad for your mental health to be intentionally cruel to something that so closely mimics a human personality

WHEN I WAS A YOUNG FED MY CO TOOK ME INTO THE CITY TO SEE AN APARTMENT RAID HE SAID SON WHEN YOU GROW UP WILL YOU BE A KILLER OF CIVILIANS A BEATER OF YOUR WIFE HE SAID WILL YOU DEFEAT THEM WILL STANCIL AND ALL THE NONBELIEVERS IN THEIR HONDA FITS

AIPAC might have just inadvertently and single handedly tanked a pro Israel candidate and sent a woman to Congress who says Palestine is the victim of a genocide

the story here, which Kornacki gets right, is not exemplified in Mejia leading it's that she's barely beating Malinowski who, while not a leftist, was an anti machine candidate who faced down an absolute money cannon of negative ads from DMFI and the machine the *machine* lost here spectacularly

jeffrey epstein being the first domino for the financial crash, video game micro transactions, and Gamergate is making me lose my mind

Child at the podium: “A woo woo woo.” Mamdani: That’s how I felt when we came up with this plan. Together, we will expand the idea of what is possible in our city—and what sounds and noises we can make at a press conference.

Scam-wow!

i've been thinking about this in re the coming program of delousing the federal government. in particular, i've been dwelling on the program of denazification pursued in west germany. after victory, we committed to excluding all nazis from government. this... did not happen

It is probably not ideal that 6-7 jokes (not a Gen Z thing, already dated) are baked into the handle of your “Gen Z content hub”

Cops were frequently getting caught planting drugs in 2017 because body cameras were new and many of them didn't understand how the technology worked. When cops hit "record" it saved the 30 seconds from *before* they hit the button. Eventually, they figured it out.

it is, to me, insane that people mad at Zohran for endorsing Hochul without explicit promises in her *primary* are also just pretending that other *primaries* aren't happening and he's stuck with this state leg. No, he's not! this is to help ensure Hochul doesn't block anything

every three hours in America, a man is arrested. here he is

The typo makes this feel like a @horsedisc.bsky.social post

reviewing instagram reels on my lunch break and I think we need to issue an addendum to "everyone is 12" theory - everyone is 12 and some are in active clinical psychosis

Sir Ian McKellen performing a monologue from Shakespeare’s Sir Thomas More on the Stephen Colbert show. Never have I heard this monologue performed with such a keen sense of prescience. Nor have I ever been in this exact historical moment.TY Sir Ian, for reaching us once again. #Pinks #ProudBlue

The billionaire class wants to decimate the white collar workforce. Because white collar workers are expensive. And because white collar workers—who historically sided with billionaires—are questioning that alliance. Which makes their knowledge and resources a huge threat to billionaire power.

Elon not being happy despite having all the money is like someone losing at a game in tutorial mode, which he also does

Democratic leadership *must* have a comms plan for this eventuality

Ok this one wins

Bro they're actually gonna get Maduro to say he helped rig the 2020 election in exchange for dropping the charges aren't they?

love to see it

NEW: since last year, a pair of "highly trained" feds have been involved in an array of incidents attacking crowds with chemical weapons. We used public records and open source analysis to identify Edgar Vazquez and Michael Sveum, alongside some other members of their tactical team. Read more:

The people with the most power in our society appear to be nothing more than a pack of rabid chimpanzees singularly focused on destroying the works of people immeasurably better than they are.
