Trump's White House & fawning hacks here don't really care about the 0.001% that the BBC gets wrong. They care about all the stuff it gets right.

The right wing has forced out a right winger from the BBC for not being right wing enough and will now talk more about the BBC not being right wing enough in right wing papers and right wing talk shows that hate the BBC for not being right wing enough

Incredibly funny to watch the right wing going Oh so just because I love money and hate poor people I'm a bad Christian according to "the pope"???

Head in hands wondering how this could happen to me, the popular president who posted a video of myself shitting on everyone 2 weeks ago

Raise your hand if your brain is sufficiently capable of complex thought to understand why advocating an explicitly Christian volunteer military is not ideal.

Nazis really hate it when you call them Nazis, weird

Facts… The polar opposite of what drives most media coverage of the issue.

Too late, Batman. Once this Tylenol floods the city's water supply, my wiki won't run out of editors ever again

Disney learned nothing from Andor.

Trans rights are human rights.

does seem tremendously unfair that, when the main centre left party breaks, we get centre right hegemony... but when the main centre right party breaks, we get the far right. the sheer asymmetry of it offends me

Threads is so fucking toxic Jesus Christ The most angry social platform ever built inhabited by people who don’t have brains It’s almost like the people on Instagram are toxic 👀

Ok threads is toxic. I post for the first time and I get a mean comments over nothing. It really is Twitter 2.0!

-Dropped or halted investigations into 100+ corporations -Gutted regulatory agencies and fired ethics watchdogs -Launched a crypto coin and offered an "intimate dinner" to top buyers -Turned the White House into a Tesla showroom to help his biggest donor "Drain the swamp."

100 billionaire families spent $2.6 billion in the 2024 election. 70% of these donations went to Republicans. Now, Trump and the GOP are gutting the FEC — which enforces campaign finance and anti-corruption laws. See how this works?

"They don't buy our cars." Europeans don't want a car that costs a kidney to fill up and takes up 2.5 parking spaces. How is this hard to understand?

I think it’s fascinating that Pete Hegseth has degrees from both Princeton and Harvard.

These guys just pull off the same grift generation after generation.

Everybody knows Every Breath You Take isn’t written in the first person right? Right?

Ok I think I’ve read everything everyone posted, and I mostly agree with the response to the pushback to the counterpoint to the argument that Katy Perry going to space is bad. However 🧵

Powerful

I wasn’t made for “the grind” I was made to have a secret benefactor and wander through bare ruined abbeys and yearn

I'm really not entirely comfortable cheering for Harvard.

the internet was better when it was on a computer in your house and didn't consume our whole lives. time passed more slowly before there were endless distractions. you had space to read, space to think, space to grow bored and create something.

I have so much nostalgia for the days where I could pull a late night working on something and not pay for it the entirety of the next day.

David Lynch was a pure soul disturbed by the dark in the world, but chose to express his pain honestly and then choose a positive outlook once he had purged his darkness ❤️

i think it's time for internet 2, where no one's allowed to make money on it

David Lynch said that filmmaking should be fun & joyful. Of course it can be hard work. Of course the work itself can encompass all kinds of pain & painful truth. But the act of creation itself should be full of joy. I think about that all the time. RIP David Lynch. You are immortal.

Dry January is dumb. January is THE month for frequent drinking.

‘We Must Protect The Pure Aryan Bloodline,’ Says Child After 9 Minutes Of Unsupervised Facebook Access

Have been on Bluesky quite a bit the last two days (for info & resources) & it’s not social media that’s broken. I think it’s us that’s broken now. I’ll post about places ppl can donate because LA is in bad shape & my replies are full of “ummmm sounds like somebody’s never heard of Pompeii.”

Sadly this has been the case for 10 years already.

Love this, and the person who wrote it.

sesame street isn't supposed to make money. the post office isn't supposed to make money. not everything is supposed to MAKE MONEY

Opinion | Liberals say that fascism is bad. What if they're wrong?

if I had billions of dollars I would do cool things like revive Wishbone and fund a Muppet film adaptation of Murder on the Orient Express with Daniel Craig doing a silly Belgian accent

This is exactly what I was talking about

I hated Dune 2. There I said it.
