Tell me you don't see it

This is a surgical dismantling of yet another dumb Matt Yglesias argument by a former clean energy exec and current Representative. This is the sort of thing that should make people stop listening to people like Yglesias. Read the whole thing.

“The Supreme Court decided not to have a Christmas party for 12 straight years because the justices couldn’t agree on whether to invite the Court’s Black employees” is about as tidy an encapsulation of the Supreme Court’s whole deal as I can think of

Here's a better view of the now-deleted photo showing Trump with Epstein and Trump with a group of young girls. The photo was originally posted as item EFTA00000468 but was later deleted. Now the 'official' list simply jumps from EFTA00000467 to EFTA00000469.

The photo below was included in DOJ's data dump yesterday. Once people noticed that Trump was pictured with young girls--children--the photo was deleted. Not only is Trump's DOJ flagrantly violating the Epstein files law, this shows how cynical they are, and how stupid they think Americans are.

Woke 2 is going to be unlike anything we've known before.

Dipshits fighting over make believe clout over imaginary talent that doesn't even exist. Incredible what ai has unleashed lol

kodaka saying this *now* while sharing the 100 line sale.......its peak

It was blatantly obvious from the outside but this is great confirmation of it. The entire shift in coverage started in 2022. Previously, trans coverage was covered by relevant reporters in their field. Now it's centralized in Azeen Ghorayshi and Amy Harmon to ensure ideological consistency.

This thread by a former NYT editor documents how the NYT came to push the Cass Review so hard over other reviews. It was dictated from the top by editors. They sidelined their own London reporter to put Azeen Ghorayshi on it.

Next time James fucking Carville asks you for money, send him this article and tell him to fuck off. 🤬

me: i think bloodsports are bad also me, seeing this dumb jackass get the shit beat out of him: WOOOOOOOO LET'S GOOOO BLOODSPORTS

Quoting this post because it bears repeating: Fuck ModRetro and Palmer Luckey and Retro Dodo and especially anyone else for promoting their shit. Am I angry about it? Damn right, because they all suck!

A reminder that bank of America has strict "morality clauses" that won't let industries like porn, weapons or Marijuana access banking services, but they'll proudly sponsor *THIS*.

The running theme between the Epstein story, banning trans healthcare for minors, religious homeschooling and the complaints about adult children estranging themselves is a fundamental American belief that children are property with no rights of their own

responding to “what do you think of Adolph Hitler?” with “I’m in favor of a strong executive” is advanced conservatism. these kids have perfected the craft.

Maria Farmer reported Epstein to the FBI for child pornography in 1996. Fucking 1996. Fucking FBI did NOTHING until their 2007 investigation where Epstein got a stay at home sweetheart deal thanks to Alex Acosta and other creeps.

Congratulations to everyone who wrote an op-ed about how he just wants americans to eat better

"Rowling will undoubtedly receive substantial royalties from the Fortnite skins… That money will likely be funneled into her hate campaign against trans people. "… over a third of… funding for the [U.K.] case came directly from Rowling…" www.lgbtqnation.com/2025/12/fort...

HUGE NEWS from the new Epstein files: Records show that Maria Farmer, who worked for Epstein, filed a "child pornography" report to the FBI in 1996. The FBI has never before acknowledged that complaint. The case went nowhere, and mass abuse followed. www.nytimes.com/2025/12/19/u...

man.

Resident Evil 2

Liberals: we need to reach out to Republicans!! The average Republicans:

Two things you realize very quickly with Gen Z conservatives: 1. They're Hitler 2. They're incredibly fucking stupid. They think like 12 year olds. You see that below: "He was strong and strong is good :)" Every time I talk to one I become 1% more epistocratic

Extremely obvious combing through this who is redacted and why. It's Epstein, Maxwell, a lot of Bill Clinton, maybe Michael Jackson (?) and basically nobody else. Everybody else's head is in a black rectangle. In practice, they didn't release shit.

Takeaway from that "What Do Gen Z Republicans Think?" piece is not what participants said, but how the publication behind it—City Journal from the Manhattan Institute, the think tank that employs Chris Rufo—summarizes them: Economically comfortable, driven by boredom, see politics as entertainment.

Alright, going to start adding shit found in a photo series from Epstein here. I'm not using alt text because the post themselves will describe the pics. So apparently the Bill Clinton/Lewinsky dress picture is in Epstein's goon cave/6 monitor screen office:

if i'm being honest i'm not really sure how we reckon with the fact that every republican under 30 is one of the boys from brazil

The Male Loneliness Epidemic is… explainable

Zohran Mamdani scares the ADL more than these guys and I think it's fair to ask why

it rules watching right wing influencers realize, in real time, that they're losing the war on pedophilia while on the side of the pedophiles

What's wild to me is that this comes from City Journal, the main publication of the Manhattan Institute, a quite right-wing think tank. Which is to say: if these (often horrific) responses are cherry-picked, the group doing the picking has an incentive to make them look as GOOD as possible.

I want a reporter with some actual agency and talent to confront a dem politician that says or has said they "want a strong republican party" to be read what the average Gen Z republican voter thinks and confirm they want a strong party like that lol

Truth of the matter is, a man who's republican is the ultimate red fucking flag. It's repellent and anyone with a sense of safety, agency and a desire for their own life thinks so.

Cannot believe this version of the Republican Party won a record number of Latino/Hispanic voters, this country is so cooked lol

It's the year of our fascism 2025. No I don't need to know that the fucking Hitler fanclub has A LOT of fawning praise and towards Adolf Hitler. THEY'RE LITERALLY SAYING IT ALL THE TIME. EVERY CHANCE THEY GET. Talking to Trump voters in diners in Ohio has now morphed to just talking to Nazis.

>Everyone Wants to Know What Gen Z Republicans Think No we fucking don't. We literally already knew they were the Hitler Youth, but thank you. LMAO fuck these chuds forever.

Sick freaks out there literally making cursed item handhelds thinking they're cool lmfao We are in hell world.

"I too would like a retro handheld made from the metal of a machine that's rained death on hundreds of people" Said no sane, well adjusted person, ever. What a fucking sick piece of shit. What the fuck is wrong with you people? It's "unlike anything you've seen" because its an abomination lol

I say this with zero irony: if you are even tangentially a part of a retro video game community, it is your civic duty to push back against this company and shun anyone who doesn't. This is fascism tapping gently at the door and as soon as you let it in, it's going to invite its friends.

Really appreciate the justified anger in this piece by @ryanlcooper.com. The GOP's narrative about trans people "is and always has been a lie. What these people actually have is a seething, obsessive hatred of trans people. They want them either back in the closet or dead."

The simplest possible explanation for the Trump administration's actions is that Trump sexually abused minors with Jeffrey Epstein and there is further evidence in the files he's trying to cover up.

I'm looking forward to 2029 when we remove and destroy every aspect of Trump's name on federal property like US forces taking down everything with Saddam Hussein on it. That's the bare minimum any Dem should do. Leave no trace of his existence.

I am taking the opportunity to once again remind you of the time Naomi Wolf thought Apple invented time machines run by vaccines

It's incredible to me how the mainstream press will be incredulous and skeptical when RFK Jr and other HHS officials push they're quackery around vaccines but suddenly become credulous when they go attack trans healthcare. Anti vax and anti trans beliefs are all the same quack pseudoscience.

It's very easy to laugh at the Trump regime's frequent legal incompetence but their hit rate doesn't need to be very high in order to successfully intimidate people. Even an absurd prosecution like this has a chance to succeed.

People are this mad about it because that was a blow to a sensitive wound we’re all feeling - where the art we’re seeing can’t be trusted, where the voices we hear might not be human, where the stories we experience might come from somewhere entirely hollow. It was a tipping point for a lot of us.

I don’t think Larian understood that when they casually talk about their use of genAI it wasn’t spoken into a board room or a zoom call full of people thinking about numbers, it was to a host of fans who looked to them as an example of humanity and art persisting in spite of things like that.

This is just straight up misinformation and propaganda These democrats don’t just not understand. They are actively working to dismantle all democratic institutions and any kind of free and fair information space. They are either incompetent to the point of malice or acting out of malice

periodically I'll see a backlash that goes a little too far or seems kinda unfair. i never say anything because i think we need to be kinda unhinged and zealous in our response to this shit. I'd take an honest-to-God crusade against this stuff over letting it proliferate.
