"I spent most of my time being a high-class muscle man for big business, for Wall Street and for the bankers. In short, I was a racketeer for capitalism."

Lol the Department of WAAARRRR featured Smedley Butler on its blog today. You’ll never guess which big parts of his story they leave out! www.war.gov/News/Feature...

Remember all the talk of healthy young people dying suddenly after COVID-19 vaccination? Our new study in @plosmedicine.org shows there's absolutely nothing to that. journals.plos.org/plosmedicine...

By the conservative inverse power, this means Weiss is a huge success and will be given power over all media.

That's beautiful. Touching. Thank you. ❤️ I've never heard of them before. I don't think so. Love it.

NB: The NY Times is reporting that some Russian bot accounts are posting misinformation about the Epstein files and some of the posts are made to look like they came from Al Jazeera. So…

‪Doctors say that vaccines protect children from dangerous diseases. A nepo baby who barbecues dogs and snorts cocaine off toilet seats says that vaccines make children vulnerable to 5G radiation. For busy parents, it can be hard to know who to trust.

Never heard this before, but I feel emotional listening to it. It's very beautiful! Thank you, dawling. ❤️🫂💋

Terrorism charges have been laid against the as yet unnamed offender in Perth. In my opinion this only happened due to the outrage from all sections of the community. To the non-Aboriginal people who have been complaining and helping keep this alive, thank you. It’s your voices that mattered.

K. I respect your insight. Not gonna gig you on it. Coz in real truth reality. N/b of a human/spirit force, can explain it. Not coz I don't believe, but coz I kno there's more to us. We love like no other, for each other. That's not by mistake. I'll save you, as much, as you'll save me.

Hehe. It's all good. I don't mind that one bit. I'm sorry to hear that. You're still cool 😎 to me, no matter what.

@albomp.bsky.social Are we doing masked cops in Australia now?

I think the biggest problem in US culture is what I will call Nate Silverism: The reflexive belief that giving a shit about anything other than your personal bank account is hopelessly cringe.

I farted. By God, I farted!

If you run accross this guy @expanse.bsky.social block him. He's a bigoted troll who uses block lists to screw with people.

“The moral spinelessness in not only seeking to silence Dr Randa Abdel-Fattah, but to link the cancellation to the abhorrent terrorist attack in Bondi, speaks volumes over who is allowed to have a voice in Australia." Read more on The Australia Institute's response: thepoint.com.au/news/260109-...

One thing this invasion of Venezuela is gonna do is persuade countries like, oh, Indonesia, Vietnam, Brazil, and Argentina that they could need nukes after all. Iran will work harder. Egypt and KSA may well, too. And what about Canada and Mexico? Easy for the one; maybe harder for the other. Maybe.

What's the deal with b;ack swan events? Every time I see a black swan I'm like "Don't you have some crazy shit to be doing?" then they hiss and chase me from the park.🤷

America has 925 billionaires as of this year. Collectively they have a record $6.9 trillion in wealth. The bottom 50% of Americans control $4.2 trillion in wealth. When 925 people control more wealth than half a country’s population, we have a very serious problem.

yes please bring back CD players too

We watched Home Alone with my youngest daughter last night, so we put on Home Alone 2 tonight. We’re about 15 minutes in, and I’m like, you know what, fuck Kevin

Paul and Tate getting their brains turned to mashed potatoes the moment they stepped in the ring with somebody in the same weight class who isn't afraid to punch back feels like God flashing a big red warning sign to our country.

Unbelievably, it's been 25 years since we lost Kirsty MacColl yet the beauty of her music and her memory still resonate. Here's a song I wrote for her to sing in the 1995 movie 'Mad Love'. www.youtube.com/watch?v=aWjl...

Damn. My best friend's doggo just died. He was a Silky Terrier named Reginalde Stool, and he was a main character. RIP, you little terror.

This from the @jewishcouncilau.bsky.social is excellent www.jewishcouncil.com.au/2025/11/jewi...

So let me get this straight: The asshole booked every network to carry his 20 min unhinged propaganda rant, and the DNC response to it was…… Anything? Anyone? Buehler? Like how much does it take to hire someone to provide a coherent oppositional response?

Never ask a woman her age. Never ask a man how much he makes. Never ask an Israeli where their grandparents are from.

Every time I see right wing bigots trying to appropriate Terry, my main thought is that it's a shame they didn't hook his coffin up to a dynamo to further irritate them by providing infinite renewable energy www.thepinknews.com/2021/08/06/t...

It's hard to get neurotypicals to understand "I didn't do the task because I was so intensely aware of the need to do this that my brain built a wall around the concept of doing it", so we just say "I didn't do the task because I forgot."

2/ Mark Zuckerberg, Sam Altman, Peter Thiel, Elon Musk, Marc Andreesen... I can't bring myself to leave any of them off this year's list.

Wait, Paul, I'm confused. I've asked Jay a bunch of times, but haven't seen a response. If you're claiming to be anti torment nexus, I simply have to ask then: Do you want trans people on here? Like, personally and as a corporation?
