The thing is I knew Bernie had dogshit judgment in people but I really expected better out of Elizabeth Warren.

I feel like we’re in for many years of “haha, they were spending taxpayer money on bug condoms—DOGE to the rescue!” turning out to be something important Elon’s Tween Team didn’t understand.

Let’s be clear, because I see a lot of people glossing over this. These allegations are of domestic abuse and physical violence. You could get an order of protection based on these allegations. Domestic abuse isn’t about “hitting,” it’s about using violence and coercion to control your partner.

has any man ever been more vindicated? x.com/stuartbuck1/...

are you just going to do this for every generation

Platner is not somebody who came from nowhere with a surge of organic support because he's a spectacular talent with the power of pure authenticity. He was recruited and coached and prompted by a gaggle of political operators, effectively picked by the campaign shop equivalent of a casting agency.

Here's a quick clip of the Worf's Weapons module from Berkeley Systems' Star Trek: The Next Generation Screen Saver collection. It's one of my favorites. You can check out the whole video here: youtu.be/960fwN8nCpE

“‘Couples with egalitarian arrangements of household labor & childcare report increases in their levels of love over time,” [Coontz] says; couples w/ more traditional divisions of labor report the reverse…. Recent research finds that egalitarian couples report good sex, and more of it.”🧪 👇*a blur*

What's happening with Platner is why you hop off the bus at "he has a nazi tattoo"

It really shows how little value society places on women and how little progress we’ve made that a man laying his hands on a woman in anger is still reduced by many people to simply being a bad boyfriend. “At least he’s not a rapist” - the bar literally could not be lower.

Ok one more. The Geraldine Fibbers' cover of CAN's Yoo Doo Right. Hell of a cover while turning a krautrock song by my favorite band into alt-Country www.youtube.com/watch?v=cz4j...

yeah he’s not going to drop out and it would be absurd to imagine this is the last story that drops between now and october (or now and next week) this fucking sucks, man

really hard to pick a favorite but I am never not entertained by Devo covering Neil Young's "Hey, Hey, My, My" with Neil himself on guitar blending right in with the band. And the cover itself is very good www.youtube.com/watch?v=7-3X...

Name your fav cover song.

Every headline now is President says country ‘hotter than ever’” and then there’s another story in the corner that says “mosquitos now have rabies”

Why on earth would I want to do this?

Happy Tuesday! Who's ready to hear about 1. Flesh-eating maggots (mostly go after cattle) 2. They're native to the US 3. The USDA has kept them out of the US since the 1960s 4. But the flesh-eating maggots are making a 21st century comeback. And believe it or not it may be thanks to MAGA.

This was incredibly common back in the day. Elsa Lanchester wrote in her autobiography about how she would often be paid to play “the other woman” so couples could get divorced. She would check into a hotel with a man, he would leave, she’d spend a nice night at the hotel.

Paramount+ wanted to use the image on the left as a poster for the wrath of Khan, so they used everyone's least favorite technology to generate the rest of the image.

i mean this is securities fraud, bc CBS is part of a publicly traded company, not that anyone cares.

Okay so I read the whole of the Pope's latest encyclical "Magnifica Humanitas", the one the internet is calling the AI Encyclical, but it's about a LOT more than that (of course it is, it's over 40,000 words). Here's a thread of quotes...

"technology is never neutral, because it takes on the characteristics of those who devise, finance, regulate and use it."

BREAKING: we just won our Kennedy Center case! Both the renaming & the closure of the Kennedy Center are enjoined Kudos to our wonderful client @repbeatty.bsky.social & my colleagues @democracydefendersaction.org & Washington Litigation Group This is a 1-2 punch against Trump's corruption

some people have short memories or weren't there at the time. I remember how the law treated CeCe McDonald, a Minneapolis trans woman who killed a man in self-defense who was being racist and transmisogynist when she was attacked by a group. men's prison. free now. 🪷 en.wikipedia.org/wiki/CeCe_Mc...

Free market is when no-bid government contracts with mandatory purchase requirements

Barney Frank looked disgusting—nipples protruding—in his coffin. Very very disrespectful.

Not only is Trump the most corrupt president in U.S. history, you could make a persuasive case that about a dozen things he has done this term would earn him that title even if he’d done nothing else. And we’ve learned about two of those things just in the past week.

Wow porn AND anti-AI?? Playboy came to Bluesky and read the fucking room.

this is the last photo on my parents' video birdfeeder before it was mysteriously destroyed we may never know what happened

And it wouldn't even lead to lower prices at the pump! Here's the legendary @pkrugman.bsky.social writing in 2000.

You read about how complicit the liberal media was with the ascendance of the national socialists in Germany and it's difficult to comprehend. The thing is, I see it now and it is still difficult to comprehend. To be this stupid and gullible. To be this incompetent. To be as complicit as this.

Happy Mothra’s Day

“Even if you stopped climate change today, New Orleans’s days are still numbered,” he added. “It will be surrounded by open water, and you can’t keep an island situated below sea level afloat. There’s no amount of money that can do that.” www.theguardian.com/us-news/2026...

Here's the full video with local YIMBY legend David Modica, in case you don't want to have to Instagram. But do give @reportermatt.bsky.social a follow.

lol, they gave Artemis II astronaut (and Philadelphia sports fan) Christina Koch an astronaut Gritty

Black people are giving it these Confederates raw and uncut. This is how it’s gonna be now. You wonder what we’re thinking? It’s this. I believe this is activist Gary Chambers again in Louisiana.

Oh my god. Indycar what are you doing

Now that it has been directed at me, I denounce the MAGA racism that rewarded and amplified me back when I claimed it didn't exist.

It will never not be funny that Nancy completely hijacked this comic

this is really heartwarming. two men exchanging symbolic tokens of things the other has no interest in (football, peace)

I feel like “it’s absolute horses” should refer equally to something good or something bad with its meaning imparted solely through a persons delivery of the line

This is going to be met with a bunch of "that will never hold up in court" responses. Ok. So do it anyway. Force this administration to make its preposterous masking arguments in front of federal judges. Make them defend secret police on the record. Go on the offensive.

The Founder Class STILL absolutely can not resist talking about The Singularity as if it's a brand new concept For Smart People instead of tantalizing nerd bait that dates back to at least 1965 and is literally in the first paragraph of en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Technol...

BIG SCOOP: Energy industry reps tell me the Trump administration is now extrajudicially blocking all new wind projects in the United States Apparently the Pentagon is refusing to sign off on once routine FAA airspace clearances even when military assets aren’t around My latest for @heatmap.news
