While Governor Polis has the authority to commute that sentence, he expressed no interest in doing so until Donald Trump pressured him to. Like so many of our elected leaders in this moment, the Governor chose appeasement and capitulation over democracy.

to wit: reading your work to see if you stole it from other writers in the aftermath of you having been shown to steal work from other writers is not bullying nor is it character assassination it is a foreseeable consequence of stealing another writer’s work

When you think of the Miami Marlins, you think of security. Security in the fact that you have the lowest payroll while spending the most money per win. ADT itself feels antiquated in our modern panopticon of Ring doorbells and Palintir. Until you learn Google has equity in the company. 1.83/5

Something has fundamentally failed in US society when people of good conscience earnestly believe this. This is anger directed in the wrong direction.

Drawing a summoning circle out of Stila liquid eyeliner to awaken Lauren Conrad, the only person who can stop Spencer Pratt

It gets even weirder. Because of BTS’s fanbase calling it out Spotify for their incorrect numbers and the weird behavior Spotify admits something….they counted Drake’s streams manually and combined them with his other albums. They’ve never done that before for any artist EVER.

just open contempt for the united states as a pluralist and secular democracy. and a reminder that the function of the fiction that the united states was founded as a fundamentalist christian nation is to establish a hierarchy of human worth with white christians at the top

LANDMAN is ripe for this because it routinely has Billy Bob Thornton go off on wholly-untrue pro-oil rants. His most famous one is about wind turbines not offsetting any carbon over their 20-year life cycle. In reality, they're fully offset within an average of 5.3 months.

I am obviously never going to do a verse on a Megan Thee Stallion track but if I did I would absolutely include the line “my pussy’s so tight my kids can’t add fractions.”

A labor union is always going to fight to ensure its members receive due process even when the member has done something wrong or illegal because that is the labor union's job.

The next James Bond should be Ted Danson bam you’re welcome

Some girls would be like “ew my boyfriend spent all day compiling a list of MLB sponsor patches” but I am just thrilled to see the fruition of what I know to be a multi-week fixation

If they weren’t all reprehensible there would be a good sitcom premise in “trophy wife with no interest in it becomes the First Lady”

Upon reflection, it’s pretty surprising that Donald Trump only named two of his kids after himself.

This is fake, but of course it’s going around like it’s real, because social media clout is more important than truth.

Officer's face unique dangers to their noses. This is why I've developed my patented Tactical Nasal Protection Device, a foam sphere that's bright red to maximize visibility.

I know the ballots are out but I’m now a write-in candidate for Mayor and my position is that my opponents are soft on crime because they’d rather give the LAPD guns instead of Batarangs

Obviously defund the police but short of that I am in favor of only allowing the police to use tools and weapons used by Adam West’s Batman.

All of these are terrible but at least the Nationals are truly Washington’s team by repping the gerontocracy

This is what I hate about Platner: His love of dumb macho bullshit. His belatedly covered Nazi tattoo is a symptom of that.

ancient Egyptians were seriously afraid to go somewhere without something to read

I’m going to run for Governor on the platform of restoring the California dream: everyone gets a gold pan sluice, and a pair of high waders at entry, we’re bringing back 49ers whether you like it or not.

I went to Kerlan Jobe for new ligaments and then everyone in baseball was like “wait me too”

I love when a Wikipedia bio raises more questions than it answers, like “what did Cloobeck do from 83-07” or “how many times is too many times to go on Undercover Boss?” and of course “does prolonged contact with Eric Swalwell turn people into libertarians?” en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Stephen...

Most surprising twist is finding out that Eric Swalwell was this billionaire’s couch goblin

Re-upping this thread. And note that you can tell it's not really real because the number of genders in the supposed Talmud list keeps changing.

"Pop culture helps decide what’s normal enough to repeat. When Euphoria folds the R-word into ordinary dialogue week after week, it’s not just reflecting culture, it’s helping to shape it." It's been happening for a while, but this is a disturbing sign of just how normalized the R-word has become.

Like I’m sorry but “it’s not real but it feels real” is a terrible argument for sharing obvious disinformation

One of the compounding tragedies of a trans woman's murder is the way that her death comes to define her, even in the tales told by our own community. We must remember how Juniper *lived*, and how much beauty she packed into such a short life. What an incredible voice.

“do crimes on behalf of donald trump and you will be rewarded even by democrats” is the message this sends, which is the precise opposite of what we need in this country right now thank fuck this asshole is term limited

Ted Lieu, Lindsey Horvath, Ben Allen, Rick Chavez Zbur *all* declined to help us as we tried to get the city of BH to agree to an independent investigation or additional guardrails. The only politician who actually stood by their stated pro-choice values was AG Bonta.

2 yrs ago I founded a local org seeking transparency re: allegations the city of BH interfered with an abortion clinic’s lease. We couldn’t get any electeds to speak about it, I suspected bc landlord Douglas Emmett was too powerful. I just saw 4 anti-Nithya ads last night funded by … you guessed it.

This has been going around bsky and I’m begging you all to take three seconds to look at a photo with a discerning eye before you share it, they’re all wearing the same suit and that’s not the Chinese flag behind them

in a way, isn’t causing men to crash out before she’s even done anything just proof that Lupita is perfect for Helen of Troy

its slightly disheartening that people still dont understand the dynamics of how social media actually works and why ragebait is effective at shifting culture, but happy for the washington post to see them get successful on here i guess

🚨🚨 MORE INFO ON THIS SMART SWEET BEAUTIFUL GENTLE HUSKY IN NEED OF A HOME

I know Bluesky is the backwater lib bubble that will never matter in a million years or whatever but it's funny to note that the Washington Post has its Walgreens Bari Weiss podcast over here farming rage views because their engagement on YouTube is so bad

It really does say that. Image is probably fake.

I used to feel a little bad that The Onion is about to surpass WaPo in print subs and stopped promoting the membership as a direct foil until today they came out with “Do POOR BABIES deserve DIAPERS???” so therefore

So if we all mute/block they just get to go home and cry? 👀

Half a year with my first mate Starbuck, filled with roadtrips, Prozac, and lots of public transpo.
