The world could be such a nice place if we allowed it. It's all so goddamn unnecessary. There's no need for any of it. It's so beautiful here. It should be so cool to be alive

On the one hand, the fall of the dictatorships in Greece and Portugal were both precipitated by unpopular and disastrous wars. On the other, we had two concurrent unpopular and disastrous wars and we elected this dogshit president twice, so...

Oh, yeah? Would a dying empire do THIS?!

BELCH KEGSTAND will be one of my new Blast Hardcheese style names for Hegseth from now on.

Someone with as much money as this guy who deliberately makes himself look like the villain of a very special episode of an 80s sitcom is not someone who should be making decisions about the news your parents watch on the teevee.

Yeah, most of the cheap shit is inexpensive.

"Red Zone Cuba": first as farce, then as tragedy

"Anti-Blackness is foundational to U.S. fascism." "It's not enough to 'abolish ICE'; we have to abolish the police force." "We need to be abolition communist feminists. We are not only demolishers of worlds, we are builders." #Minnesota #California #USA #Policing #Deportation #EthnicCleansing

The Semafor Restoring Trust in Media all-star panel.

Knew the speech was over because I got a text from Pete Buttigieg asking me for money.

TROUBLE IN THE SUEZ We didn't start the fire

Most of the worst things happening to humanity are just 500 or so men (and at least one woman) who get together to bankroll evil. It’s not nuanced or complicated. Just true.

@ironageofcomics.bsky.social I believe this is yours?

Consent calendar just passed and I am now officially endorsed by the California Democratic Party! Thank you to all the delegates and everyone involved in the process - it’s not always sexy work, but it’s all important for a functioning democracy. Onwards to the primary!
