So gpg got its whole ass exploded I take it ?

I think we should simply ignore the Supreme Court on this and consider prosecuting them for seditious conspiracy if they don't get in line.

logging into my amazon for the first time in forever and it sending me a 2fa to my current phone number even though I think I last used it three numbers ago has convinced me we must tax it out of existence

this suit is absurd but it's even wilder in the context that you can safely publish "matt taibbi bragged about raping underaged russian teenagers" and have zero fear of being sued

The tampon distribution thing isn't an alternative to welfare, it's an alternative to scammy fundraising texts

Happy Pop-Tarts Bowl Day to all who celebrate

sincerely doubt if, eg, Beto O'Rourke's campaign had done some sort of community car wash, that we'd have several cycles of discourse coming from many different quarters about whether that was a crime, effective use of funds, destroying campaign finance, etc etc

A lot of discourse around “why doesn’t the academy engage with conservative intellectuals” is that a lot of modern conservative thought boils down to rationalising an instinctive racism and therefore isn’t interesting To study.

Behold: pedophilia book

there is an ad on the subway for “pick your baby dot com” that claims “IQ is 50% genetic” and i sincerely believe everyone involved in its creation should either be on long-term probation or in jail.

more confirmation that lurking clearly behind this idea of the “heritage american” is a straightforward contempt for the actual history and tradition of this country, such that vermeule has to hallucinate a framework to justify his desire to jettison the clear meaning of the 14th amendment

why are there rarely articles written about liberals in red state urban centers (e.g. Salt Lake City) being gerrymandered into some rural conservative representative?

It’s kind of funny bc I think it’s sauce is that it’s the movie james Cameron wants to make and he’s got incredible taste.

Plato argued in the Republic that the 'tyrant,' or someone with unlimited wealth and power, would live the worst possible life because his soul would be devoured by lawless, unlimited desires that could never be sated. I think we've gotten confirmation of this from more cases than Trump lately

The lecturer in question is our colleague in children’s literature studies. She is a brilliant scholar and from all accounts a gifted teacher. This ruling is infuriating… at the end of the day, it is our students’ education that will suffer.

This is a pretty misleading choice of quote to run from me after Mr. Brahman pursued me at length for something that would meet his ideological priors. I’ve asked him never to contact me again.

IF YOU ITERATE YOUR LOOP FASTER THAN THE OTHER GUY YOU WIN

the shit I care least in the whole world about is whether the story about the Earl of Sandwich is true. yes it fucking was. my man was playing cards and eating meat with his hands and then he said hold up check this out. you won't believe this shit. bring me some fucking bread & hold onto your hats

Yeah a lot of people don’t like comparing Trump to communist leaders because they like communism and hate Trump but truly those are the authoritarian systems with the most accessible living survivors whom we can turn to to help us make sense of it all!

So true bestie

It’s going to be some bullshit respectability from the center and some bullshit bleating about identity politics from the left and some bullshit religious forgiveness from the right. I’m just going to expire from unrequited rage.

I think the criteria for “can be trusted with the technology to live forever” can be boiled down to “can allow for an existence that doesn’t center themselves“ which categorically excludes anyone posting about “deathists”

The mass intelligentsia is a sleeping leviathan that has just begun to wake, more and more are saying it.

We are going to build the cathedral

hang on I know many computers that are spiteful, and i very much hope we can make a computer that can be horny

Just wow. @pluralistic.net.web.brid.gy came out swinging in this article. He's right though and that's the coolest part.

Veronica Escobar didn’t get to celebrate her son’s 8th birthday. Victor Madrid missed picking up his children at school for the first time. Patricia Quishpe was forced to spend her first night ever away from her youngest child. https://cnn.it/3MRvXf3

Santa and the Grinch have returned to the shadow realm, where they will murder each other with rusted knives and axes repeatedly until the next Christmas season dawns once more

you know, if I had money like elon where I didn't have to confront the hole that lies within all men, I think I'd probably end up at least similar to how he did. I hope I wouldn't be dumb enough to carelessly kill tens of millions but I'll never know

Every Democrat running for office needs to promise investigations and full prosecutions from top to bottom, remove its funding bloat then break up the agency and distribute its core remaining useful functions across other agencies.

I’m from Whoville, and I say kill the Grinch!

if you are above the law's judgment you are beneath the law's protection

honestly I think that we should pass a law denying the protection of any federal law to anyone who received a pardon from Trump. nothing done to them by any other person should be criminal.

Spotted over on Insta.

So apparently the Thai-Cambodian truce collapsed this month. Great. Anyway, if you give to scammers, you are funding the guys forcing slaves to work in a warzone at gunpoint, b/c they don't mind if they die if it means a few more pig butchering scams go through.

I don't have a caption for this one.
