I wish that Pentagon request would silence any sort of "we can't afford ..." (I know it won't.) If we can find $200B to sooth the ego of sundowning narcissist, we can afford to fund ANYTHING. Including air traffic control. EVERY aspect of degraded service we see is a CHOICE.

There was ONE ATC in the tower at LGA during last night's crash. ONE ATC, at LGA!, dealing w ALL air and ground traffic, including a plane filling w a strange smell and no gate to return to. The Pentagon wants $200B for a vanity war, but our ATC towers are empty. Budgets are moral documents.

*pulling up to the club cradling a rotisserie chicken in my arms* you wouldn’t deny entry to a woman and her child, would you?

For the rest of my born days I will never allow a conservative in my presence to declare themselves "pro family" without instantly telling them to "F*** off."

People never ask the important questions about Omelas. What if the kid is a dick? I mean a proper arsehole. Given it has to be a kid, presumably they let them out when they turn 18 so that's at most what? 12 years of suffering? Against maybe a hundred years living in Utopian Omelas? What if the kid

things are bad but at least I’m getting a lot of practice curling into a ball

Another dump and pump lol

This is why I despise the AI slop machines, it has fundamentally changed how I engage with art and entertainment which I now must meet with skepticism and scrutiny, something I never had to do before, and I resent it.

If your feminism isn’t first anti imperialism you’ll fail

Oh wait you mean Israel and the mass media were manipulating the protests inside Iran in order to start a war and all of the tankies who pointed it out and got told we were like antifeminist monsters were right? Huh

You can now pay Adobe packs of money to teach their AI to plagiarise your stuff in particular. Like, just voluntarily, deliberately throw all your hard work out there into the slop pond. While paying for the privilege. Why the fuck would anyone want to do this.

Lindsey Graham proposes killing 7000 marines and wounding another 19000 marines to defeat an enemy who has never initiated a conflict with the US

With domestic media becoming monopolistic holdings domestically of crony capitalists (from India to the US) there’s very little defense against these multinational companies and deliberate media manipulation of elections to serve a global right-wing oligarchy.

The scale of threats corporations, domestic and multinational, pose to democracy worldwide is unfathomable. From US social media companies to Israeli spying companies no election anywhere is safe.

The Israeli company Black Cube tried mightily to interfere in this election to defeat the liberals and bring in the hard right instead. Slovenia’s ruling party has been a staunch critic of Israel’s genocide in Gaza. It’s astonishing how little coverage there has been of this scandal in the US.

Saw someone say on here that communists only do literacy programs and raise literacy rates for propaganda reasons and I thought about this post

Spain Prime Minister Pedro Sanchez: "Trump is someone who will set the world on fire and then blame smoke caused by that. He has been wrong for 18 days of war. I urge everyone to call him out"

Watching billionaire cabinet secretaries discover the concept of "global markets" in real time over the last two weeks has been strange.

This is actually quite jarring

You can tell our systems are broken when: - The greatest threat to democracy is an elected President - The biggest danger to public health comes from public health leaders - The worst enemies of those fighting to control and prevent infections are the people getting paid to do that job

These are so weird lol

Some creeps are talking about sending an army of infiltrators to No Kings protests to "gather intel on the left" so if you go start thinking now of the most unhinged fictional gossip you can share with any "how do you do fellow kids" ass weirdos who approach you.

Shitposter? No. Shitpoeter.

"[T]he number of people on probation in the United States (2.9 million) is even bigger than the total number of people behind bars. ... Over half of people on probation earn under $20,000 per year, which is below the SNAP income eligibility cap of $22,352."

Astonishing. The goal of our war is now to undo the effect of the war we started. Gosh, if only we could rewind to, say, four weeks ago when the Strait of Hormuz was open and normal!

the human body was not designed to know what the worst person in the world is doing every fifteen minutes

monday comin'

Regularly I am amazed at the accuracy of the advice "If you feel like you hate everyone, eat. If you feel like everyone hates you, sleep. If you feel like you hate yourself, shower. If you feel like everyone hates everyone, go outside."

yet again, you can choose to give defenders of the party extreme benefit of the doubt that there is absolutely no malice or corruption going on: that still leaves you with "they see these guys as work buddies and not even an attempted coup could change their minds on that"

So they tried to lie for investors/shareholders and we all saw RIGHT through it (well 'most' of us did) and the blow back was so bad they had to admit it. Never believe ANYTHING tech companies say now, they are so desperate for more money they bullshot their way if they can

I'm beginning to think Trump can't die because he sold his soul to three warring demons like John Constantine. But since he's pissed them all off, he has to live life as a shambling, pus-filled zombie.

March 21, 1981. It was only 45 years ago today that Michael McDonald was lynched in Mobile, Alabama in an epic that helped to bring down the Klan Beulah McDonald isn't remembered today, but this Black woman and mother essentially bankrupted the Klan into oblivion

I am so tired of the most bat**** people on earth having all the money.

Universities have been turning discretionary spending over to people with mostly Events backgrounds to enhance “student experience” and now that choice has inevitably come for the curriculum.

Oh, noes! How dare he ask for a salary comparable to his white peers?

This is like me starting a fight and redefining victory as “getting my shoes back.”

Everybody's asking
