The original post has been deleted or I've been blocked, so my recreation of the greatest political compass of all time.

Once again, I am humbly suggesting that the city of Wilmington put a statue of Columbo where the old Columbus statue was.

I have always loved @propublica.org's mission statement. It speaks to method as much as mission, and does not shrink from describling their journalism as a moral undertaking. www.propublica.org/about/

It's interesting that he's now publicly contemplating his own mortality a couple of times

dying at rightwingers falling for what looks like an ai generated turning points USA half time show with special guest “measles”

every single one of these guys 100% thought they would get to be the rugpuller and not end up the rugpulled

Can AI replace her?

If he shot a toddler in the face on live TV, the NYT would call it “a bold redefinition of political norms.”

I think we really should stop using antifa and just fully say anti-fascist and get them saying they are against anti fascism. Using antifa is giving them some distance and I genuinely think some of their base don’t even know that’s what it stands for.

Did you miss it this week? I have a new job: president of News Creator Corps. Goes like this. Via the people now called creators, audiences are migrating to the social layer in the internet stack. Maybe there's a way to move with, rather than against that. newscreatorcorps.org/2025/10/news...

Should the New York Times be sold to Pennysaver and its editors sent to work in Amazon warehouses? It depends on who you ask.

i’m running for president in 2028, this is my platform: - no more spam texts and calls - smaller cars with weaker headlights - imprison every person in ice and the trump administration on a remote island for a thousand years

“Some people say the city is burning. Opinions differ.” This isn’t a difference of opinion - either the city is burning or it’s not. If it’s not burning, then those saying it is are lying.

True story or made-up bullshit? It depends on the narrator

UNTIL IT’S DONE, Ep. 4: Sylvia Rivera In the 1970s, queer New Yorkers had been pushed to the margins of NYC. Our trans neighbors faced immense cruelty. But in Sylvia Rivera, they found a champion. As we combat Trump’s politics of darkness, her legacy can light the path forward.

And now Stonewall National Monument under Trump has erased the very thing she fought for. Love the support, Zohran. Thanks, sincerely. bsky.app/profile/erin...

every single dem should be taking notes. this is how you message around trans issues (of note: i believe he is the only cis candidate for office to have trans people consult on his lgtbq+ policy platform)

I want them all prosecuted. Every last one of them.

The “crackheads ripping wires outta the walls” theory of Republican governance.

Impressive political savviness on her part

SPC Johnson frantically searches for his lost coupon booklet after a tactical retreat from a large group of protestors wearing inflatable frog costumes.

Only 45% of their funding comes from Telsa share. The majority comes from Bitcoin.

They make up lies about paid agitators doing violence, and attach them to the name of a prominent Jewish person. This is antisemitism, and it infects every part of the GOP.

"Hello everyone, I'm incredibly unqualified and have no idea how to do this job. Please help me learn how to be your boss instead of actually doing your real jobs, which I am completely ignorant about. THANK YOU FOR YOUR ATTENTION TO THIS MATTER."

20 paragraphs down in the NBC News story that broke the information that the administration is considering invoking the Insurrection Act is the report that Stephen Miller is driving the issue.

The New York Times also just kind of introduces Turning Point USA as this ambiguous entity without explaining what it is, or detailing any of its dodgy behaviors as a super shady right wing propaganda organization this kind of generous framing isn't done by accident

Every day is a new entry in "imagine if it was Biden"

RFK Jr did his own research folks.

If we are taking in “trillion” of dollars in tariffs: 1. Why haven’t we paid down a cent of the debt? 2. Why can’t we afford to not fuck millions of people over with expiring insurance subsidies? 3. Why is none of it being used to help the abysmal job market?

“We can’t replace Meghan McCain with *you*” is fucking rough

“the girlfriend of one of the founders of antifa”

In June I announced that I was retiring from NYU after 39 years, but I am not leaving the field, or the fight for a public service press. Today I can explain what I meant by not leaving the field. I have a new job: president of News Creator Corps. Read on. newscreatorcorps.org/2025/10/news...

Now now, let's not downplay the trauma of getting twirked by an inflatable tanuki

CBS wants more opinion along the lines of Tony Dokoupil attacking Coates for saying Palestinians had a right not to be murdered.

it's from two pics i took of the moon tonight. very lazily mashed together

I think this is half the goal of AI for those seeking a post-truth order. Yes, they can produce fake evidence against people they don’t like, but probably more importantly they can dismiss actual evidence against them as being fake.

I hate that the em dash has become a sign of using generative AI. I've known how to use them since forever! It's stolen valour!

what if I told you that taking accountability for your actions was traditionally considered a load-bearing feature of masculinity?

Actually it did begin with a parade of tanks

Last week Jesse Watters spoke to man named Eric who claimed he was formerly a member of antifa. Two years ago Watters interviewed Ramon "Mundo" Mendoza, a former Mexican Mafia member. Some folks thought the men looked similar. This is a side by side comparison. 🤷‍♀️

A Texas megachurch pastor and GOP leader has been arrested for crimes against children. Not Robert Morris, a different one. Not Josiah Anthony, a different one. Not Luke Cunningham, a different one. Not Tony Evans, a different one. Not Scott Crenshaw, a different one. Not Steve Lawson, a different o

I also believe that if you explained to the median US voter just how arbitrary, stupid, and cruel the US immigration system is they wouldn't believe you. The information environment is utterly corrupted.

I remember a study asking Americans their opinion on foreign aid. They thought we spent way too much on it. Then they were asked “ok, as a % of the fed budget, how much should we spend on foreign aid?” and they pitched a number at least an order of magnitude higher than what we actually spent.

if you ask the average American to describe what they think a tougher immigration system should look like, they will describe something a degree of magnitude softer and more generous than the current reality. The lesson here is that people are both better and dumber than they appear.

I was a skeptic about the import of the Epstein files. But 3 invasions of cities, one military buildup outside Venezuela, a government shutdown, and so many other things meant to distract have me convinced whatever’s in there is the biggest presidential scandal in U.S. history.

He’s come to trust Stephen Miller like he once trusted Michael Cohen, and no one should ever trust Stephen Fucking Miller. Like Goebbels, Miller has his own agenda of retribution and everyone in America will pay for all the kids who made fun of him growing up.

He couldn't refrain from commenting on the dating lives of the Twilight stars. The idea that he would let this slight go is not in the realm of any possibility if he saw it.
