“DHS traps people with serial killer methods” arrives in the news one (1) day after “DHS taunts jailed children with Nazi methods,” for those keeping track

Months after the killing of Charlie Kirk, a growing number of lawsuits by people claim they were illegally punished, fired and even arrested for making negative comments about Kirk.

I am gonna go out on a limb and say that a Jersey dude so horrified that he went to his first protest and is trying not to cry on camera has a pretty good chance of staying radicalized. And that while Bluesky loves to pick apart things like this, this kinda video moves the needle for OTHER dudes.

European Field Pansy (Viola arvensis) shot in 2019. #Bloomscrolling #Wildflowers #UrbanWildflowers

Absolutely nobody: My brain while scrolling: "Shit, is that weird Clavicular motherfucker a vampire?"

Obviously, it's literally a felony, but I will also point out that the obsessive consumption of what we'll broadly call destructive materials is a hallmark of the darkest corners of the internet participated in by some of the lowest, most unwell dregs of society in those corners.

An alcoholic head of the Pentagon is shooting at random flying objects near airports using untested technology. Americans have nothing to worry about.

We wanted to understand how mRNA vaccines work. So we talked to three cocaine addicts in a gas station bathroom off Route 6.

I like how we’ve gone from relitigating the 2016 primary to relitigating the 2028 primary despite it not having happened yet without even briefly pausing to live in the present moment.

A white lady in sensible sandals set fire to a building. The tides are turning.

This is what the opposite of diversity looks like.

Professors are being surveilled, recorded, and punished for what they teach. Complaints boosted by Turning Point USA have led to suspensions and firings. As Project 2025 policies take hold, academic freedom is giving way to political oversight. Read more:

Doing a Fedposting in response to this news is a terrible idea and exactly what they want to happen.

The Atlantic: I blame the Mellon foundation

Probably the most embarrassing cultural trait inculcated in Tech is the feigned lack of understanding of potential harms of technology because understanding them would require being morally responsible for them and would thus deflate the hype make-believe buy-in among the developers of said tech.

Fucking hero hours over here

With this administration, that probably is too much to ask.

Well, there it is, that (((group we're not allowed to know about))). Chunk is saying that Israel is the Deep State. This is ZOG-level antisemitism.

Well that's pretty unambiguous

This is a really nice piece on what it means to make art in an era where the idea that someone will pay you for it or that tons of people might see it seems to be going away.

Listen, if you want to jerk it to Five Nights At Freddie’s, you get down with your bad self. I just wasn’t expecting Elsie the cow to be wearing a leatherface mask before I’ve had coffee.

This is my whole decade.

I vaguely recalled that Elsie was very popular once and thus was prepared for the distressing vintage ads. I was not prepared to encounter the phrase “furry waifu” or the animatronic erotica community.

didn't the documentary confirming (yet again) that Olympia director Leni Riefenstahl was a true-blue committed Nazi come out like just last year

Meanwhile Meta is bragging that they can get their own users arrested, Minority Report style.

Dude who was the world's most notorious rapist pedophile lawyer thought Graham Linehan wasn't brand safe

Russia's deeply unsuccessful Matryoshka fake news campaign has now started using Cameo videos to deepfake the voices of celebrities, here's a few examples featuring Bruce Boxleitner, Dolph Lundgren, David Yost, and Neil Newborn.

come on guys, you’ve got a ton of attractive people stuck inside when they’re not competing, what else are they gonna do

The rapid Stormfront-ification of Fox News and GOP media in general reveals the extent to which "palingenetic right wing ultra-nationalist populism" (i.e., fascism) has been the telos toward which much of the "American conservative movement" has been oriented since the 1940s.

Boundaries are good. If someone sets one with you, strongly consider respecting it. If you are inclined to tell them that you think they are only setting a boundary because of mental illness, perhaps reconsider.

This is exactly that we were afraid of and told wasn't possible.

Doctors bear the burden as ‘medical freedom’ fuels worst US measles outbreak in 30 years reut.rs/4auOyFJ

We are running headlong into the space wherein equating MAGA to the Nazis will be irresponsible *because it won't adequately capture the evil and death toll of MAGA*

Abolish the fucking police.

Anyone who wears these things needs to be a social pariah, it’s the only way to kill it. Not allowed in bars, kick them out of your parties, treat these losers like the losers they are.

The act of writing down something as openly malignant and reprehensible as that speaks volumes, not just of the individual who wrote it, but of the culture at Meta that openly plots against our rights.

And people wonder why I won't touch any of Meta's properties ever, at all, at this point.

I have never liked American Girl dolls *at all* until right now.

the golden age

Just sayin' it right out loud there.

OK, this is just the last straw. Waterboarding a 16 year old girl? ...and potentially a younger sibling? The GOP is an abomination upon the earth. www.youtube.com/watch?v=fdoS...

i just wanna drive my truck mow this grass drink my beer dress like ass

i’m loving the bots lately

In one of the comments a reader defined ‘DEI’ as ‘Donald-Enabling Idiot.’

this theory is fun because I think we can all agree that Erika Kirk has the eyes of a woman who would absolutely go "Fatal Attraction" on a spurned lover and things could get pretty exciting if all the worst people in the world go gloves-off to destroy each other
