every generation loves Rumours. it’s fucking Rumours

"World's first potential trillionaire has killed 600,000 people, including 400,000 children" is the only headline that anyone should ever read about Elon Musk

It’s official: We just added a Democratic trifecta in Trump’s backyard! This win puts a big obstacle in front of Trump & his MAGA minions. Now it’s up to Governor-elect Spanberger and the new Democratic majority to keep building on that mandate and protect Virginians from their problematic neighbor.

I’m pumped about the margins in the VA governor race. My city, which is home to Liberty fucking University, went 60% for Spanberger. I really hope these people don’t immediately check out

hateful dipshits really taking a beating tonight

hang this exchange in the Musée d'Orsay

Politicians are emotionally damaged individuals who think they are the best person in a whole city, state, or country to do things. There's something wrong with them. They serve us and our needs, and feeding them adulation only encourages their worst defects. They need puppy training, not devotion.

*Shocking* that health-tech companies would immediately turn to eugenics.

I might have to get this in poster form.

you fucked around and now the Episcopalians are doing memes. are you happy now. are you

There's one person who pays them $250 a month who cost Augment $15,000. Amazing stuff. Can only imagine how bad things are for Cursor or Replit www.augmentcode.com/blog/augment...

Job occupations, from an 1881 census. Every one of these sounds like something a sorely provoked Captain Haddock would should at someone in times of heavy stress.

Okay so I forgot I did cash app borrow and someone sent me the funds through. Cash app and Cash app stole it as a partial overdue payment 😭 I still owe $40ish on there to not have it do that to me anymore

this is absolutely my favorite protest innovation of 2025 "my opponents are violent antifa extremist terrorists" "your opponents are dressed as giant inflatable frogs" solid fuck you to the pepe crowd too

Cops wearing riot gear all the time, everywhere is just SO WEIRD. It’s the equivalent of walking around in a wet suit or, like, wearing a football helmet in the supermarket. Outside of an extremely specific context, it’s just a ridiculous outfit.

what was health insurance

I can’t believe I’m watching interviews of city mayors talking about how they are coordinating with other mayors to discuss how to protect their residents FROM THE PRESIDENT OF THE UNITED STATES I know we are “used to it” but it is absolutely insane

Newsletter: This is The Case Against Generative AI, a comprehensive analysis of a financial collapse built on myths I’ll dispel, the markets’ unhealthy obsession with NVIDIA's growth, and the fact that there is not enough money in the world to fund OpenAI. www.wheresyoured.at/the-case-aga...

The way I look at it, there are three outcomes to debating a fascist: 1. You win. The fascist learns from his loss and does better next time. 2. It's a draw. The fascist claims victory, and his supporters believe in him more. 3. You lose. People are persuaded to become fascists.

an appropriate response to your product killing a child after months of psychological manipulation and torture is to take the product off the market before it kills again and the fact that this isn’t universally accepted right now is incredibly frightening

Slightly diminish a band: Soul Day-Spa

Does this count?

My goto is to ask LLMs how many states have R in their name. They always fail. GPT 5 included Indiana, Illinois, and Texas in its list. It then asked me if I wanted an alphabetical highlighted map. Sure, why not.

If you look at the Epstein story through the lens of his victims and their life stories you get a story about every powerful institution in public life failing on any measure of accountability but repeatedly being outmatched by the courage of teenagers, sex workers, and runaways

Thank you Anxiety Wolf

Can we maybe not use the cutesy little name they gave this place to obscure how fucking evil it is? popular.info/p/the-memeif...

an aggressive ant colony reduces the Keebler elves to a pile of bones and little outfits, but what really sends a wave of bone deep unease around the world is how fast the ants are able to get cookie production ramped back up

the "quiet posters" feed by @why.bsky.team is one of my favorites and surfaces posts that you might not have seen otherwise. add it to your feeds here: bsky.app/profile/why....

This is worth having on hand when right wingers either brag about turnout or ask how much protesters are being paid washingtondc.craigslist.org/doc/tlg/d/wa...

Stealing this from bird site.

This is one of our most read stories on Bluesky. "Perhaps prison would have persisted this way forever. Perhaps our granite hearts and iron wills would have never crumbled. Perhaps the prison mentality, that we be cold and heartless, would have endured. Perhaps. But then there were kittens."

VINTAGE LUNCHBOX MEGATHREAD! There is something deeply, nostalgic about the artwork on old lunchboxes. They meet at the crossroads of childhood, food, pop culture, & school/friends. Every day, for as long as I feel like, I'll be adding a new lunchbox to this thread! TMNT-1989 (My first lunchbox!)

Most celebrities: can't be damned to even talk about defending trans people David Tennant: turns a question that doesn't mention trans folks once into a clear, decisive message of support and explaining the true machine behind our current oppression

"There are no hero-rulers to whom we must submit, no all-powerful algorithm that we should let determine how to eat and how to live. To think these things exist is just wishing to keep pretending that the Wizard of Oz exists, even after reality has been revealed."

Over the past few weeks, we’ve been reminded of two undeniable truths: Trump must be stopped, and bravery is contagious.

“If only all the people who protested voted.” Hey dude did you know Republicans are ACTIVELY suppressing votes and the whole “felons can’t vote” thing is an incentive to make sure there are a lot of felons? Sometimes you just get tossed off voter rolls for no reason? Also some protesters are kids.

I'm 18. The economy enters a once-in-a-century recession. A Republican president is responsible. I'm 29. There is once-in-a-century pandemic that leads to a once-in-century-recession. A Republican is responsible. I'm 35. Tarriffs trigger a once-in-a-century recession. A Republican is responsible.

Please, if you love anything about this life, stop using ChatGPT and other GenAI. Just stop. Don't use it to dunk on it, don't use it for a laugh, just stop and let that shit wither.

My kingdom for some goddamn buttons

I deleted my Meta accounts a couple weeks ago, and since then I’ve wanted nothing but to get on Facebook and needle conservatives. Probably why deleting was a good idea

Really wish this wasn’t such a controversial statement It’s merely an accurate description of the landscape with some potentially useful strategy implied. It’s not fucking Trump voter apologia

Yes, good. Take back the meme. Crypto assholes can’t have it.

Most of the people reading this have a sense of how bad things are right now. So for encouragement, here's a thread with examples of folks fighting back.

Alright people, apparently we need a reminder that misogyny, homophobia, ableism and body shaming are still bad even if you direct them at someone you don’t like

I’m gonna need to save this for the next time I see someone say change is only possible via killing

RIP TO THE REALEST ONE. FIX YOUR HEARTS OR DIE

A girl I knew in college saw David Lynch speak at an event. When it ended, she found a way to get to the front to tell him how much his films and shows meant to her. His response was “Thank you. And remember, the universe is in your basement.”
