Justice Jackson was right when she said the SCOTUS decision to give Trump virtually total immunity would turn the presidency into a “den of criminality.”

One of the weird things in the last 10 or so years of Internet is that the people/groups most excited about "disintermediation" have become the intermediaries. Like the theory once upon a time was that the Internet would mean direct unedited person-to-person communication.

I kinda want to write scathing satirical short stories to my representatives

“You have to create a world where people wouldn’t want to do that” I just read that 80% of crime is survival crime Meaning if people had enough money to survive they wouldn’t have committed the crime That’s a staggering percent Imagine reducing 80% of crime That’s why I support UBI

pardon my French but fuck this mealy mouthed transphobic piece of shit

Realizing I'm talking to thousands of people who don't personally know me at all is a trip. Hi. I swear I'm really nice if you get to know me.

“No other criminal defendant in American history has had the power to shut down his own prosecution. This is an unprecedented and wrenching affront to the principle that no one is above the law.” - The Atlantic

Rocks, anyone. 😐😐😐

Pick up the nearest book, turn to page 42, and post the second sentence: "Even the power of councils (which there is no reason not to think of as stable, even if de facto constituted revolutionary powers have done everything in their power to eliminate them) can, from this perspective, be consi..

There is no excuse. None. Republicans have the votes, they have the power—and tonight they are choosing, deliberately, to do nothing for families and everything for ICE.   It’s past 3 AM and they’re jamming through $70 billion for ICE and $0 for families.   Spread the word.

“And who pays for that??” Chuds when talking about free housing Your taxes just killed children in Iran btw

How many people who should have gone down in 2008 for that financial crisis are on the epstein files, do you think?

In an ironic twist, it looks like dinosaurs will drive humanity to extinction.

Understanding the federal government’s indictment of a civil rights icon, the Southern Poverty Law Center: open.substack.com/pub/joycevan...

J Edgar hoover didn't cross dress. That was an attempt to defame him. Apparently gunning down civil rights leaders didn't depict him as "evil" to the general public.

Ah yes, Socrates was famous for insisting his students didn’t talk during lessons

women who hate men generally just hate what men have done to them whereas men who hate women mostly just hate what women won’t do for them the difference is crucial

Google: I can't make money if I'm not a monopoly Open AI: I can't make money if I don't steal Insurance CEO: I can't make money if I don't kill people Media: should we execute shoplifters?

I went to the library to get a book on Pavlov's dog and Schrodinger's cat. The librarian said that she thought it rang a bell but wasn't sure if it was there or not!

My art is ass, the algorithm is ass, so medias are ass, I’m ass, nice to meet ya 🗿🤝🗿

If you want to understand why our economy is rigged for the super rich, look at this graph.

The victory of the opposition in Hungary yesterday, like the Polish election in 2023, is a victory for democracy, not just in Europe but around the world.

Victor Orbán’s removal sends a timely signal. Corrupt kleptocratic Christian nationalism was on the ballot in Hungary today — just as it will be on the ballots that Americans will cast in November. It was repudiated abroad — may it be repudiated here in November (and beyond).

I spent 16, SIXTEEN years fighting this crap. I can’t believe it 😭

What a grotesque piece of work. No trace of any humanity in there. Surgical alteration of the real until it is completely artifice. Stomach-turning butchery in service of signaling to other wealth and power “I am like you.” But enough about the NYT—Lauren Sánchez looks like shit too

"why does no one wanna go to the movie theater anymore" (source: www.reddit.com/r/Millennial...)

Octavia E. Butler, 1998:

Hooray! Fuck orban! Now let's America follow their example

Greta Thunberg is right.

"It isn't torture if there's a control group"

"No, I broke up with YOU!" Energy Pathetic. Get rid of this man

I will never not love this song. And you sons of racist crackers that try to intimidate me, ask your fathers about Tony hawk 2, they love this song too

Anyone hear from the Board of Peace lately?

I'm about done being sick of ice, and general police ads everywhere. I went to an "advance your career" thing hosted my by school. Shit was like 70% police. I counted. 23 tables were some kind of police agency at an alleged "liberal arts" college. This was before Trump got elected .

In case you forgot. It's understandable that you would with Iran, epstein, and everything. Remember how we just stole a president from South America? Wasn't that long ago. But still...

“You can’t possibly make the Cybertruck any uglier.” “Wanna bet?”

I just want to thank the sound guys for making me, and everyone else, sound so good last night. They really don't get the recognition they deserve. Everybody else that put things together that weren't on stage too. Yall rock!

Imagine what they could accomplish if the people trying to keep trans people from being trans put their energy into improving workers' lives Now imagine what trans people could do if they didn't have to exert so much effort into just surviving Combine them Suddenly we're a species capable of all

"Fat nuggets" is still an awesome name for a pet

Cheetahs purr like housecats! Their unique vocal cords let them meow instead of roar, blending fierce speed with adorable sounds.

It just dawned on me: if they pass the "Save His Ass Act," it will be easier to buy a gun in America than it is to vote. You need to show less ID to buy a gun than to vote.

I wonder if anybody noticed my checking my tuning with the first bit of "4 dead in ohio" before I went into "amazing grace" Ala victor wooten. I mean, obviously not as good. Nobody but wooden is that good. Still I'd hate to have done a performance in this moment and have said nothing

Why is harder to find the women musicians I met tonight on social media? Oh, right. Cuz men are monsters. That really sucks
