Yeah, when?!

The fact that Kaleb Horton died begging for work instead having a column at some hip legacy mag is such an indictment of this industry. People should have been begging to put him on payroll. But nope, we've reserved that space for Ezra Klein

Here’s a video from today of press and a legal observer being specifically targeted.

We don’t talk enough about how racists and authoritarians are the ones who actually genuinely hate this country.

Trump posting an AI video of himself promising something that doesn’t exist should get the full failing Biden front page treatment but we know it won’t.

They're going to try to overturn Obergefell and end marriage equality. Eyes wide open, folks. www.usatoday.com/story/news/p...

If you read the article this was straight up a torture program that also featured a bunch of sexual assault, abuses on a level that one will day be in textbooks with the question how did it go on so long Moreover, ICE must be destroyed

ABOLISH ICE. What more do Americans need to see?

A huge win for trans people in California: the state legislature passed five bills protecting our rights! Now it's time to call on Governor Gavin Newsom to sign them. Contact him before October 12th: transfamilysos.org/action-neede... #TransRights #TransYouth #TransCalifornia

Call Gavin Newsom's office like you called ABC/Disney/Sinclair/Nexstar

ICE just chased everyone off the public road by the Broadview facility. They yelled for people to move and immediately began firing gas into the crowd, which included legal observers, press, and medics.

Is it’s still Caturday? Lucy wants to know

Anti-trans hate group Genspect is formally calling for trans people to be repathologized. This is most certainly to set the stage for mandated conversion therapy and potentially forced institutionalization. archive.ph/yA2Wh

These scumbags like to whine that they’re not allowed to say anything these days but remarkably are still able to do so whereas Jamal Khashoggi was murdered & dismembered by agents of the Saudi government at the behest of Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman for criticising his regime. Fuck them.

Okatsuka posted the censorship rules for the controversial comedy festival, noting how many "You can’t say anything anymore!" comedians have signed on. www.avclub.com/riyadh-comed...

1. The report this post by President Trump is referencing specifically notes that FBI agents were deployed AFTER the violence started. Yet many people, including the President of the United States, are either misunderstanding the report or outright lying. The Report: bit.ly/46ocjPa

As a resident of #Portland it is impossible to capture how unhinged this is. We are a low crime city and the ICE protest "siege" consists of one auxiliary ICE office that normally has at most a dozen weirdos debating what performance art they should use to block a single driveway

I am deeply honored to receive the endorsement of @bendthearc.bsky.social, , their first ever in a mayoral election. “We are really very excited about Zohran and his platform not in spite of our commitment to Jewish values but because of them.”

Some critical context about Trump's troops to "war-ravaged Portland" that most folks don't know: Any conflicts there between protesters and ICE agents are happening because ICE agents ARE PROVOKING THEM (From that "radical left-wing group," the Portland Police Department) bsky.app/profile/mock...

Clear grounds for removing Trump from office. He’s sending America’s military against a domestic terror organization that does not exist fighting a war that is not happening. He’s gone completely and dangerously mad.

Awful news that Kaleb Horton died. A talented writer who in another time would've been getting $5 a word with an expense account. Read his skilled filleting of the Entourage movie web.archive.org/web/20150605...

If you're in Portland, go take some video of how nothing is going on there. Document that Trump is invading for no reason.

I get home from work at 1:30am, should I try to sleep? No! It’s time to make weird collages of @garfieldscreens.bsky.social screenshots.

One of the best pieces by Kaleb Horton ever is no longer easily available, because of course MTV wouldn't maintain actual good music writing done for its site once. Thankfully I found it again via some digging: his 2016 memorial to Merle Haggard on his passing. Link here, screencaps to follow.

Why am I still up? #gARTfield

I mean, come on…

Some say Charlie Kirk did Politics the right way, that he was an authoritative champion of free speech and discourse. Part of that “Politics” is a 1200-person Professor Watchlist that’s led to harassment, censoring, cancellation campaigns, and death threats.

Greenblatt took a worthy organization dedicated to fighting antisemitism and turned it into AIPAC junior - just another lobbying arm of the right wing Netanyahu regime. And the mostly liberal Jewish population of NYC sees that.

Well don't I feel stupid

not true

Rest In Power ✊🏼

We currently have a Supreme Court that seriously claims (with no explanation) that the current occupant of the Presidency suffers irreparable harm by having to follow existing law, the constitutionality of which has never before been in doubt or even questioned.

Details for the Celebration of Life for Biff Wiff tomorrow at 1pm 🤍

Some big implications for journalism, too, where reporters often mistake trending posts as a reasonable reflection of public opinion.

I’m always saying this

The Trump admin illegally leaked my unredacted personnel file to Jack's allies to try to smear me. The full force of the federal government is being weaponized to defeat me — I’m asking you to help me fight back! Donate here: secure.ngpvan.com/NGY2cCnISU6c...

Democrats: Please give the American people health care. Trump: Go fuck yourself.

definitionally you can't engage in blood libel against people who are openly rounding people up and putting them in camps and disappearing them blood libel is a whole different thing

All you have to do is *listen* to trans people and see the joy and freedom transitioning has brought to them, even in the face of society’s evil hate, to know that we should support and fight for their right to transition with every fiber of our being.

The superintendent they just kidnapped is a former Olympic athlete who runs footraces with the kids from his schools while wearing a maroon suit and a bowtie. This is quite simply about the people in power feeling threatened by Black excellence.

Folks, some incredible news: A couple of weeks ago, a national theatre chain axed our release of Jeffrey Epstein: Bad Pedophile because it mentioned Donald Trump. Now, because of you, Jeffrey Epstein: Bad Pedophile will now run on over 25 screens throughout the world. theonion.com/badpedophile

No protester has taken any violent action and yet ICE has deployed at least a dozen canisters of tear gas, detonated a flash bang in a man’s face, and now a sniper is shooting us with pepper balls.

go outside and observe something. could be rocks, could be plants or herps. let the world be imbued with meaning as you continue to learn.

The party of the boss's kid.
