i don’t understand why no one in this goddamn city puts green olives on pizza my kingdom for green olives and sausage on a pub style square cut pizza

A big problem with "Joe Rogan of the Left" discourse is that underlying the discourse is an implicit "We need a Joe Rogan figure that will appeal to OTHER, less sophisticated people. Not me though. I'm too hip to need or want that." Build the ecosystems that YOU want. Anything else is paternalism.

"Jose" is picking cherries in the Bakersfield California area earning $6 a 20 lb bucket. "On average in an 8-hour day, if I work hard I can harvest 25 buckets. It's tiring work going up and down ladders to harvest the sweet fruit but it feeds my family." #WeFeedYou

I regularly see people wondering how it's possible that there are so many musicians and writers and film makers and artists from a tiny nation like Iceland. And the answer is really simple: State funding for art education and artists. I literally get a salary from the government to write books.

💪 風刺メディアThe Onionが極右陰謀論者Alex JonesのウェブInfoWarsを引き継いで大編成。 すごい。こういうセンス・・ www.theguardian.com/culture/ng-i...

I knew Jones would drag his feet on this as far as he possibly could but it's still lovely to see Infowars turn off

Louisiana is the poorest state in the U.S. It is seizing the opportunity to disenfranchise the disenfranchised. Disgusting.

BATON ROUGE, La. (AP) — Louisiana postpones May 16 House primaries after US Supreme Court rolls back Voting Rights Act.

over the past year, with the realisation that governments have become complicit and at times even a mouth-piece for big tech, my writing has shifted from “big tech must be accountable” to "industry and government actors must be accountable”

"at the intersection of brain rot and brain fog" is too long to be a bluesky tagline but maybe someone else can use it

This assumes privacy laws are enforceable and aren't also influenced by corporate wants on how privacy is defined.

If you think AI surveillance cameras aimed at drivers’ faces is a good idea (no matter how well intentioned the justification), you are a naive fool. This data will be harvested, sold to fascists, and used to imprison activists. Oh, and car companies will 100% use it for ads you can’t turn off.

This is a wild affront to free speech

I love the onion

I wrote about The Onion and Infowars

If you've heard about the coming Super El Niño, the collapsing AMOC, nationwide drought in the US, melting permafrost, crop failures, or skyrocketing insurance rates, you probably thought: "Golly, I sure hope the oil companies who did all this and lied about it will be OK!" Well, not to worry:

The Infowars news is funny, yes. But more importantly, it is an outright rebuke of Alex Jones' evil. It's testament to the strength and resilience of the Sandy Hook families who survived this bullshit for more than a decade as well as the Onion, which didn't give up on this for the last 18 months.

I'm so happy to have photographic evidence that this horse thoroughly enjoyed his birthday cakes. It's like we have satisfying answers to that Onion column: 1) yes, the horse got to try cake 2) the horse liked the cake 3) the horse's person gave him a good, long life that sometimes included cake

"The Onion lives in a false reality"

The Onion has successfully bought InfoWars. Happy 4/20. 😂

Oh yes indeed! Love it!!

What a beautiful piece of writing from my boss, @brycetetraeder.bsky.social. theonion.com/at-long-last...

The Onion news is very funny etc but I think it's worth spending a little time looking at the reality of what's happened: the families have not seen their settlement, and Lenny and his former wife Veronique have not even had their long-awaited day in court. This has been brutal and it's not over.

One of the Sandy Hook families lives in hiding 1500 mi away from their baby’s grave due to people stalking them. The graves of multiple children have been defaced. One of the fathers had to submit DNA evidence to prove his son was a REAL HUMAN BEING after Alex Jones’ book said he never existed.

lmao

Some timeline stuff: — We expect to get InfoWars.com after the judge clears it in a couple of weeks. — We'll build a world of characters on the site and across social media. Tim Heidecker is in charge, and we have grand designs. — Visit theonion.info, buy a subscription, help us dominate the world.

Love wins.

Watch the whole episode here:

The fact that the Onion bought Infowars on the anniversary of Columbine High School murders is just another level of righteousness.

Killer story from @noahshachtman.bsky.social @robertsilverman.bsky.social on the Madison Square panopticon. This guy's not an outlier, he's the start of a trend as surveillance tech commodifies and we get watched more and more. "We're in a time of private armies now" www.wired.com/story/madiso...

Difference between then and now isn't that companies like blockbuster cared more about privacy, but that Congress made it specifically illegal in the Video Privacy Protection Act 1988 (in response to someone giving Robert Bork's rental history to a newspaper to try and sink his scotus candidacy)

Wow. SCOTUS’s “shadow docket” was first established to stop the Clean Power Plan. It’s remarkable how many assaults on democracy, or at least on established process, over the last decade have served to protect fossil-fuel interests from the energy transition. www.nytimes.com/2026/04/18/u...

Joe Rogan is standing directly behind Trump in the Oval Office

You should be able to easily file your taxes for free with the IRS. Not only did Trump kill Direct File, the IRS's free tax filing program, but this week, Republicans BLOCKED my bill that would make the program law of the land. That's what you call selling out to TurboTax.
