i can’t stop thinking about this or the nyt correction either. “pre-existing health problems” is a socially disastrous concept.

something something the harm you accept your government inflicting on others is exactly what it will do to you

hateful and expecting help bitch choke

The truth of the situation is even worse than this “context” added by the NYT. There is free, universal healthcare in Israel paid for by US tax payers *and* Palestinians can’t access it because of apartheid.

building a Dyson sphere around the sun is an incomprehensible undertaking. building one around the solar system is simply impossible in even the wildest sci fi projections of the future every statement Altman and his fellow tech oligarchs make is just as preposterous

They're trying to convince everyone that building a Dyson Sphere around the solar system is more realistic than increasing the capital gains tax

every ounce of heat people had for the free press issuing corrections on the state of starving children in gaza should also be lodged at the nyt btw

I’m gonna love getting blamed for whatever comes after bc I said “I’m not voting for a jerk who hates homeless people” instead of the millions of people who voted for trump

Still fighting the Palestinian genocide

Yeesh. Someone tell the Fearless Leader that "I know you are, but what am I" was a stupid retort even when he first uttered it at age 8. Also, CAPS LOCK is not a slam dunk rhetorical tool. thehill.com/homenews/adm...

We recognize 1/6 was a test. This display shows him, his acolytes and detractors, that he can and will, by any means necessary, wield power. Remember he told Christian Nationalists they’d never have to vote again? Remember too how he watched the violence on 1/6? Sickly, he lusts for provocation.

It’s not silly or performative. These are tests and practice runs. If Dems win the midterms, MAGA is going to declare the elections illegitimate. They’ll ignore congress, deny funds, salaries, access to offices or just outright abolish congress. They’re preparing for a full dismantling of the US.

Every day, I am thinking about what this means for 2028.

18 was already a bullshit age cause how you can't buy booze but you can consent

Dear God, Shouldn’t we be asking the Republicans near us (County/State Party officials, Rs elected to our city council, county commission, boards, Sheriff, etc) why they support protecting and coddling a convicted sexual child abuser and trafficker like Maxwell? Amen.

🤔

Nigel Farage made this happen… It’s his policy, he owns it.

Gonna go further onto that limb and imagine that this guy generated this list from a podcast episode, a Gemini prompt, and that book report on Hamlet he wrote in ninth grade. I don't think skimming the clifnotes makes you a Schopenhauer expert.

This is the reading list of a racist white man who thinks he's smart but no one else he knows agrees with him.

Fear is a common tool of oppressors because it’s a projection of an experience they know because there are *always* more of us than them. There’s a reason they go after defenseless people to spread terror.

killing isn't the worst thing you can do to somebody breaking their mind is

It's a blessing to enjoy boredom as an adult 🙏

I love being bored! Curating my own cluster of like-minded individuals who aren’t farming trauma/drama for engagement is where it’s at. Please keep me the suburbs with all the quiet black people.

a fun fact about JKR's fandom is that in 2021 I tweeted that her account should have been suspended when Trump's was for the same reason and I had to lock my account for two weeks to stop terfs from brigading a tweet about my dead mom's birthday to call me a fucking cunt but sure. hate speech.

it appears that @bsky.app have suspended the account of @jessiegender because a trans person saying "I wish ill on JK Rowling" is against the rules, so let me say with my loud cis voice that I too wish ill on all perpetrators of hate speech against trans people reinstate Jessie, this is ridiculous

this was the funniest possible way for me to learn that I guess Joanne’s castle has black mold in it several hundred of you are in my replies like “team mold” and it keeps making me laugh

critical support to the black mold in JK Rowling’s dingy castle

This means a lot of people here don't like genocide, that's all it means. Now, the other site...

Broke: withdrawing from society to focus on [TOPIC] so you can achieve ultimate truth and knowledge Woke: participating in the world around you so you can be a conscious and active participant in the endless and constant transformation of ultimate truth and knowledge IYKYK

Ignorance > incorrect beliefs. And its funny how the ignorant people i.e. new people are often the first people in an organization to successfully point out dumb shit that's going on lol

LORD, WHAT CAN THE HARVEST HOPE FOR, IF NOT FOR THE CARE OF THE REAPER MAN?

Discworld QOTD, from Soul Music “I MAY HAVE ALLOWED MYSELF SOME FLICKER OF EMOTION IN THE RECENT PAST, said Death, BUT I CAN GIVE IT UP ANY TIME I LIKE.”

Synonyms: trumpulate, republicanize, schumerify

"Among the favorite pastimes of Republican men, two stand out: first, boasting about what strong, courageous, hypermasculine operators they are; and second, publicly melting down about how pants-pissingly terrified they are of American cities." MUST be strong to hold oppositely wrong views together

"I think on some level, conservatives know perfectly well that liberal American cities are quite safe. That’s why they have to work themselves into such paroxysms of hysterical cowardice—to give themselves permission to inflict violence on the Americans they hate." prospect.org/justice/2025...

Things on which I agree with republicans: we need to get the criminals out of our country Things on which I disagree with republicans: who the criminals are

we're all just crabs boiling in the pot together because slightly more than half of the crabs voted to turn on the stove

If you have conceded AI cant replace an experienced software engineer/developer but you think its reasonable or even possible for AI to replace junior or entry level developers you aint a smart person. Where the fuck do you think experienced people, in any field, come from?

Many corporations act like experienced senior level employees just randomly appear out of nowhere.

The concept of the entry-level job needs to make a return. That's why when I'm hiring for an entry-level employee for my team I have TA put fuckin ZERO years of experience for the lower end every single time.
