It's entirely possible this is just one last round of stock/prediction market manipulation before Israel breaks the ceasefire and they go all in. That's totally something they'd do.

Bibi will just ignore it anyway.

their whole vibe is all about making the world worse, it's what their supporters love about them

Donald Trump must be removed from office for threatening war crimes and genocide. Speaker Johnson: bring the House back into session. Invoking the 25th Amendment and impeachment must be on the table, but Congress should also move on a War Powers resolution to stop Trump.

just incomprehensible to truly describe how stupid this all is

Americans in general? Yes, sadly.

We are in a very bad and terrible place in history. Please help our government find the political will to fight back against the tyranny we are seeing in office. We have to get the right people into office. People who will fight for us.

Pope Deepdish should excommunicate All of the US until he's forced out of office

No job or status is worth this level of public self abasement. These people can never be allowed to forget or escape their culpability after Trump is a cautionary tale in history books.

My dracaena trifecta is about to bloom! 😊

It also must be said that they have zero self awareness, will never admit they made a mistake, and will keep steering the ship into hell until we tax them out of existence.

It's almost like all the smart tech guys and billionaires aren't that smart & shouldn't be listened to. Who knew.

The tech billionaire smart guys all seem to be a lot dumber than we thought, in addition to becoming insane from all of that wealth accumulation. Ruthlessness/sociopathy much more prevalent than raw intelligence

it cant be said enough that all tech smart guys and billionaires thought this guy would be great and now the world economy is fucked we're like a week from gas rationing and their guy is threatening nukes.

Every single fucking thing we have been called “alarmists” about something, we were later validated and proved to be correct in our assessment. Literally everything the right called the left alarmist over was later proven true. Somehow we still allow the right to have a say in leadership.

In 1953 Iran had a functioning democracy. A free press. Seven political parties. Women in universities. Women granted voting rights in municipal councils in 1952. A secular prime minister named Mosaddegh who believed Iran's oil belonged to Iran. The US and Britain decided he had to go.

A world leader making a casual statement of genocide is not, nor should it ever be, be allowed to be something normal and acceptable

I don’t know about you…but jailing journalists for protecting sources sounds a lot like something that starts with an “A” and ends with “tarian.” Clearly this isn’t isolated. It’s part of a relentless, calculated attempt to erode press freedom. Our democracy is in danger.

Regardless of whether or not this was just bluster, he should face removal from office for threatening a crime against humanity. There's never been a more dire need to invoke article four of the twenty-fifth Amendment.

I sobbed for days, sure we were all doomed to a grotesque death. Then 1989 came and the cloud lifted for a while. Too bad tens of millions of Americans hate women so much they just had to vote for a rapist.

Delaying booking a return flight back to my house in case my idiot president launches a nuclear war tonight. Even if he eats shit and walks away tonight, don't let anyone forget how fucking stupid this moment was. Don't let kids forget how close we are to annihilation, provided we make it.

At this point you fight for the mad pedo president or you fight for the Constitution. I really don't have any sympathy for people who literally chose to do the former.

Does the phrase "I was just following orders" mean anything to you? A pretty significant point of Nuremberg was that it *wasn't* just the people giving orders who had to be held accountable. If you think only leaders should be held accountable it is not Nuremberg 2.0.

I don’t want to hear about brave and conflicted service members I want to hear about people sacrificing their careers to do the right thing

We are going to need Nuremberg and we are going to need it not just for leadership but for anyone who pushes buttons. Anyone "just following orders" tonight. I don't say that lightly.

“If you’re not doing anything about this wildly unpopular president…then why even be in congress?” — Molly Jong-Fast, just now, on MSNOW @mollyjongfast.bsky.social

Donald Trump is an unhinged warmonger and war criminal using violence for personal gain and profit, while innocent people pay the price.   Congress must reconvene to pass the War Powers Resolution. The 25th Amendment must also be invoked. Congress has to do our damn job. War powers and Impeachment.

Oh no, I think it's worse than that. She is willfully ignorant, for certain, but she is also VERY stupid. It is a painful combination to watch, and breeds that special form of idiocy that should only exist in comedy sketches. Sadly our universe is not that kind to us.

I have had some version of "he wants all of us to be buried with him" in stuff I've written about Trump in the past and usually but not always taken it out. It didn't like looking at it, mostly, but over time it just became one of those things that was too obvious to bother with. It's all sickening.

to imagine back on that beautiful blue orb that makes all of this unique life possible we can’t stop bombing and killing one another, it’s terribly sad

let's be clear about what's happening: donald trump and benjamin netanyahu, whose countries have been committing genocide in gaza since 2023, unilaterally started a war with iran, and are now threatening genocide there.

i think if you tweet "a whole civilization will die tonight" you shouldn't go to the hague, the hague should get to come to you

Every elected official needs to say the same thing. Every Dem in the House should join in bringing the Impeachment articles. If there is any red line at all, this is it. 🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬

if Trump nukes Iran it will be because no one powerful in america has ever been seriously punished for anything

the lesson from today’s downtime isn’t that it was caused by vibe coding (bluesky went down all the time before Claude too), it’s that if you use AI you will no longer get the benefit of the doubt and everyone will mock you for laziness regardless of the cause

Israel is doing to entire neighbourhoods and communities in Lebanon what it’s done to the entirety of the Gaza Strip in Palestine. Razing human life and civilization to the ground.

It's actually remarkably easy to not ever use ChatGPT.

damn aaron swartz tried to warn everybody about sam altman

yet another reason to leave substack (before they make it even harder to leave):

People should actually be very alarmed that while AP's business model is shot to bits, Americans are still very much reliant on the news it delivers. The alternatives in some cases are inferior or non-existent. apnews.com/article/news...

In all seriousness this is a huge issue with the subsidized right wing bullshit machine. Articles written by well-funded news “foundations” are syndicated out with no paywalls. This is subsequently rewarded in several ways.

There are many ways to resist and little interventions like this add up. Don't just "go along" with what's happening out there in the world. Step in. React. Shift the direction of how the culture is changing by refusing to play.

Just found out today's International Asexual Day! 🖤 We are in fact the "A" in "LGBTQI*A*+" so yes, it's real. A lot of people even in that spectrum deny our existence which is sad. 😢 And yes, we can also be married, mostly due to societal obligation but being Ace =/= Aromantic/Aro. 🤦🏻‍♀️
