Instead of wearing pink on Mother’s Day I think male athletes should just respect women year-round. It’s not that hard!

This explains both sides of what’s going on with MTG very efficiently

Humanity a prison etc etc

Holy shit

I was today years old when I learned President of the heritage foundation (Kevin Robert’s) got a PHD in American History w/ a concentration in African American History. He studied us & slavery & created Project 2025 as a way to try to do slavery better. This is his dissertation:

I'm still waiting eagerly for Iran to follow in their ancestral footsteps by capturing Netanyahu / Trump in a crushing defeat and turning them into inflatable mannequins for a bit of court entertainment

Notion: 3-4 months as a key phase of a strategic timeline for war resistance

U.S. intel also indicates that Iran retains about 75% of its pre-war inventories of mobile launchers & about 70% of its pre-war stockpiles of missiles, per a U.S. official. The regime has also been able to recover underground storage facilities & repair damaged missiles

endurance is a strategic weapon for iran at this point

How about instead of endless milprop FPS we push First Person Helper (FPH) games, the stakes are that if you get caught helping people the state will kidnap or murder you

i've been getting more folks telling me about this and it's not anything i agreed to. it's been stolen like AI steals. please vandalize it if and when you see it.

in case you were wondering what stage of capitalism we're at, google search is now treating the word "crumble" as a misspelling of the cookie brand crumbl

put simply, if a state can cancel party primary as easily as they did, did the party even exist as an independent entity from the state

We need lots more of this type of energy asap

"We don’t have an oppositional or even functional left. We have “leftists” and “leftism,” and there’s a difference.” @williamcson.bsky.social for @prismreports.org prismreports.org/2026/04/28/l...

Like all extremist power-consolidators he's just trying to build a hardened massive compound so he doesn't ever have to interact with the world.

Whoever decided to put AI closed captions on shows that used to have real closed captions should be in prison

Incidentally, a pressure cooker is a good metaphor at this point in time. Removing the lid itself is now an explosive risk.

One of the worst post-9/11 trends is the widespread use of "first responder" as a category to lump together cops with doctors, nurses, EMTs, and firefighters— as if they're all the same thing.

the most interesting things that have happened in computer in the last ten years are all open source programs maintained by someone named werner hans von moleman living in the outskirts of leipzig, making zero euros a year for his work. need a works progress administration for american linux nerds

nothing online works for shit anymore. everybody who knows how to work computer is unemployed. we are stuck with these losers shooting up peptides while they vibecode their claude dongle

A new episode of the podcast dropped this morning: I sat down with Juan, an Amazon Teamster in the Inland Empire, to talk organizing, recent wins against the retailer, and building community through the labor movement. Check it out:

The FBI director ran for his life and left his girlfriend behind holding the hand of another man.

Hey remember when code pink got within like 5 feet of Trump at a random restaurant lol

anyone who attended that WHCA dinner is an embarrassment, and current events have not changed this

i have several questions

This might be an example of conspicuous consumption, but it’s a stunning looking house. With climate change we need to focus more on native-timber-frame houses [this isn’t, but could have been] & not driving silly distances. The beauty of this structure is it blends with the landscape [gift article]

Tailing on to my rant about digital duping last night, here is an example of an LLM-based tool to profile any individual on reddit. This kind of targeted psychometric or personality profiling based on public digital presence and written works is becoming trivially available to anyone with an agent.

It's important to remember that, yes, sometimes good things still happen. www.dailymail.com/news/article...

impossible to overstate how poisonous this shit is. dudes on the street smiling and waving at your toddler are an indicator of a happy and functional community

A great book. Writers trying to figure out how to make themselves seen will get a lot out of it.

I, for one, am looking forward to Congress exercising its Article I, Section 8 authority to issue letters of marque and reprisal.

it’s a good question! my kinda-speculative answer is we’re seeing sincere quasi-religious piety to a nonpartisan ideal, at least from some folks. In contrast to commercial radio or partisan press, there are sincere (maybe naive) folks who wish to serve the ideal public radio of their dreams/hopes.

So I'm moving into a ~300 sqft studio for the equivalent of about 10 days of work (not counting utilities, which are another day of work). But remember I'm not purchasing, just renting. So this homebuyer got to own a small house for just a little over what I'm paying each and every month 💀

You couldn't get much with 1/3 shekel & 15; grains of silver these days !

I was just thinking about this yesterday after seeing graffiti over a commemorative plaque to Chicago Mayor Richard M. Daley

new sticker design soon, still need to decide a quantity and place order

Current status of the Strait -Open -To some traffic -Under Iranian Control -Going to some places -Along a specified route -Under Joint Control -Blockaded by the United States -With a fine Imposed by Iran and Oman -Under United States Control I think that's plenty clear

Air Canada will suspend flights to JFK for nearly 5 months as jet fuel costs soar

Unbelievable corruption right in front of our faces.

Israel killed an average of at least 47 girls and women per day in Gaza. A new analysis published by the United Nations shows that more than 38,000 girls and women were killed in between October 2023 and December 2025.

walkable cities strongly encourage a feeling of imagined community that helps make you a good citizen. if you experience the city only in slices it's easier to see large swathes of it as fundamentally alien or hostile.

See? Everything is OK
