Reminder that there will be motion on KOSA and the KIDS ACT on monday Please contact your representatives literally right now of you can and demand censorship/surveillance legislation be opposed

Sounds like the UK government is set to make their "social media ban" announcement tomorrow. They've spent much of today trying to convince people that by agreeing "children should not see certain content"; you're in favour of communication restrictions and digital ID.

Please call your reps, this thing is so evil

Doing a thing for a Pride thing

This is dead on. If the Democrats retake the House and Senate--or even just the House--it could mark the beginning of the end of a 50-year Republican project. If they can't? The GOP will spend the next 2 years destroying all remaining guardrails. Most important midterms of our lives, no question.

“We, the creators of the Torment Nexus, are now suing the writers of the classic science fiction novel ‘Don’t Create the Torment Nexus.’”

You don't hate AI enough.

Absolutely incredible. It is these little gems that provide brevity and soothe the soul. I hope she's eternally mad about it.

If wanting the rich to be taxed is racist now, then apologies to everyone involved but I will never change my ways, and will in fact double down. My desire to tax the wealthy, by their metrics, does not make me a casual racist. I am going ranked.

Happy Piccolo Day to all who observe

Every day, it feels like we're constantly being pulled back into the realm of North Korea or Russia in terms of how absolutely shitty this place will become. We had so many advantages, and we pissed it all away because of fascism and protecting a pedophile obsessed with money.

The GOP’s priorities are insanely off. Sen. Kim is right: Spread the word. Then let's kick these feckless cowards out of office.

Lines I was not expecting to hear in the Kamen Rider Ryuki 13 Riders special:

7 dollar gas. Well, I guess I'll buy an electric car. Oh those are 60 thousand dollars? Well at least electricity is cheap. Oh the government won't build solar panels because it's "Too transgender"? Well at least wages are going up. Oh the idea of jobs is fake now? Well at least everyone is happ

Passing this along - fucking scammers leveling up, here's a new one to pay attention to.

The things I want to say in response to this bullshit is either legally inadvisable or would immediately get me flagged for a mental health intervention. Neither of which I can afford right now because billionaires love money too much. www.washingtonblade.com/2026/05/01/r...

Not even American, not even a fan of air travel, not even saying they should be bailed out. I'm saying that it cannot be a good sign that budget options like Poundland and the like are going out of business. That feels like a bad sign.

Without downloading anything new, where are you mentally?

This is why pandering to conservatives doesn't work. You have to drag them kicking and screaming into the future and they'll fight you the entire way but will enjoy their improved lives without ever giving you any credit. But it works better than ever trying to pander to them.

I'll tell you one thing: This is guaranteeing that my next vehicle will be electric. Fuck the fossil fuel industry.

Once again, the current admin engaging in blatant acts that would have gotten a democratic president impeached at 4pm, removed at 8pm, and tossed into a ditch by midnight.

The Bluesky community every time the devs release a new awful feature while calling us garbage people:

If youre a UK resident you have a prime opportunity to push back against the Online Safety Act and online surveillance. PLEASE take a moment to fill this out and share it around

Hey, this is worth taking like 60 seconds to fill out. Its not a commitment towards anything, its just to help the Free Speech Coalition gauge interest in such a credit union Please share this around! This could end up being huge!

do not let this fucking pass I beg of you.

If you'd like to go back to the prosperity of the 1950s, Tax the rich and corporations, as they should be taxed, support Unions for fair wages & vote Liberal. With thanks to Jeff Tiedrich for the quote.

Exactly one year ago today:

Hell. No. pv-magazine-usa.com/2026/04/15/s...

the fact that legislators are trying to say that computers are devices that require id verification and tracking to use should put fear into EVERYONE. FIGHT AGAINST THIS.

Ooh ooh do *the entire video game industry* next

This is NUTS www.thehandbasket.co/p/trump-usai...

Burning down a warehouse with NO INJURIES instead of hurting a single soul, clearly stating the motive being the lack of a livable wage, is threatening their way of life? I feel like they've completely forgotten how workers solved their disputes back in the day. What our "way of life" REALLY was.

The effective federal corporate income tax rate: 1950: 50% 1990: 25% 2020: 13% Stop asking "but how we will pay for it?" Restore the corporate tax rate. That is how we will pay for it.

They are so, SO desperate for people to resub. PLEASE don't resub your Nitro everyone. Props if you aren't already subbed, props if you were subbed and you unsub right now. NOTHING changes unless a company FEARS for their bottom line. Feel free to use Discord still, but don't give them a penny. 💖

I saw a post that said: "American beauty standards are set by middle-aged white men who prefer 12yo girls" and I can't unthink it. It's 💯 true.

interesting that when a movie with female protagonists does poorly the response is to cancel upcoming projects with female protagonists and when a movie with female protagonists is a huge hit the response is to cancel upcoming projects with female protagonists

oh man that could have made obscene amounts of money

...btw I link to evidence that the anti-trans backlash was a highly coordinated and well–funded (especially via right-wing orgs) movement in this essay: www.bostonreview.net/forum/how-no...

I never want to hear the GOP speak a damned syllable regarding "decorum" or "standards" of any kind ever again. They've made it clear that power and money will let them excuse any behavior, no matter how cruel or vile, so long as a white man does it and they can get their cut.

I beg your finest fucking pardon? A tan suit was enough to send the GOP into a screaming frenzy, but posting actual murder videos is still somehow okay with them?
