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

why does my money manager app email me stuff like "did you make 13 new transactions?" how the hell should i know

It’s 1932 and Weimar’s Social Democrats are very concerned by the threat of the Communist Party

Funny how it’s always the people who actually worked at the studio and not the select few who are responsible for all its poor decisions

Right now the world is full of people who want to code and write and paint and film stuff and people who want to play and read and look at and watch stuff and nobody is allowed to do any of that because some unrelated third guy isn't making enough money off the deal

I really resent being told America is about to become a totalitarian state because a few shitposting socialists won their primaries while this guy holds more power and influence over the federal government than they ever will.

I think it is silly to pretend that the Democratic Party's leadership is not clearly far to the right of their base on some key issues which have demonstrated themselves to be of a moral valence in recent months and years, sorry.

🚨THE KIDS ACT IS AN INTERNET SURVEILLANCE BILL🚨 Congress is rushing the KIDS Act toward a vote. This blend of KOSA, the SCREEN Act, SAFE Bots, and other bills is a single package that is a threat to privacy and free expression for ALL internet users. 🧵(1/10)

There’s been more elite Democrat anger at Democratic primary voters than outrage over the life imprisonment of anti-ICE protesters — including a couple whose only offense was printing zines. Look at what they choose to talk about with the media and what they ignore. It’s revealing!

This is crazy to me

sometimes on my timeline i see a post so bad that i reflexively reach for the block button and then i realize it's the USER WAS BLOCKED FOR THIS POST account

Me at the A24 board meeting: We’ve got a brand beloved by young hip people and cinefiles, basically synonymous with “good taste” and “artistic vision,” in a time where both are hard to come by. What if we flushed that in the fucking toilet for a bit of money?

"We need moderates" buddy that's what democratic socialists *are*

The Prairieland defendants are political prisoners being held captive by a fascist regime There are raids, subpoenas, indictments targeting anarchists, abolitionists, & anti ICE activists all over the country right now Take this moment seriously. Understand how the state will continue to escalate.

I also think people should notice and remember that no Democratic politician is talking about Prairieland.

The sentences handed down today in Texas are a threat to the possibility of a democratic society. The prosecution is rife with constitutional violations, but 30 years in prison (more than anyone for January 6) for moving some magazines? 50 years for those not involved in even planning the protest?

You can draw a through line between Standing Rock, Stop Cop City, the Palestine encampment student protests, and the results of the Prairieland case. And then still have Dems asking why there aren't more protests...

When reality surpasses fiction! Top: fictional forecast for August 2050, broadcast by French TV in 2014 to warn about the consequences of global warming. Bottom: Real French forecast for yesterday, June 22, 2026.

This is horrifying. People getting sentenced to decades in prison for distributing zines, organizing mutual aid efforts, public protest.

I don’t want to hear another word from establishment Dems about cooperating with Republicans. Don’t want to see another stupid bipartisan photo about “seersucker suit day” on the Hill. Nine people who protested ICE at a detention camp were just sentenced to 50-100 years in prison. WAKE TF UP.

There is going to be new movement on KOSA next week Contact your representatives and demand that they oppose KOSA and the KIDS Act www.congress.gov/members/find...

The first step you take on the journey to "abolish the police" is the realization that we could "abolish" 2 soldiers, 4 cops, and a horse from this particular situation, and we would be fine.

I'm sorry, but we've passed the point of GreenwaterGate being some cutesy ridiculous story. It sure seems like the WH sent cops to find people to arrest/detain because Trump can't accept that his contractor messed us, decided to blame "liberal scum," and his troops were ordered to find "suspects"

Please stop putting blood and soil propaganda on everyone’s TL

Hey look! A reminder that Discord still plans on doing this! Raise the alarm bells again!

"vote blue no matter who" is unfortunately completely irreconcilable with "we need to burn out corruption root and stem." sad to say making this omelet is going to take longer than we had hoped

Staking my entire professional future and fortune on catering to the erratic whims of the infamously unappeasable 80 year old dickhead known as Mr. One Foot in the Grave aka Mr. No Apparent Heir aka This All Dies With Him.

Wow, and a bit of an upset in the Democratic primary for #ME02. This is the Jared Golden district. Matthew Dunlap will be the Democratic nominee. He trailed Joe Baldacci (favored by national Dems) by 32% to 29% in R1 (see below), but he beat him in the final round of RCV.

The winner of the Democratic primary for governor in Maine, announced just now at 1:48am by Maine officials after tabulation of ranked choice voting, is... Hannah Pingree. Pingree was SECOND in the first-round preferences on June 9th, with just 23% of the vote; but she won in final round of RCV.

Genuinely horrifying how quickly nations like Canada and the UK are becoming fascist tech surveillance states

why is there a notification on my chat button i can't get rid of? is this just here forever now, like that other notification next to my edit profile button? the vibe coding is vibing too much

If you oppose the thing that made RAM the cost of a small car and has made researching stuff on the internet noticably worse, you will be referred to on this site as a conspiracy theorist because actually it uses less water than industrial-scale agriculture.

Okay yeah Cory Booker is a member of Peter Theil’s fascist private society cult, but at least he gave a long speech that one time

“Trump spent 112 billion to close Hormuz and 300 billion to reopen it”

reading this MN indictment and there are many takeaways but one of the biggest is that if you still think the gov isn't getting your signal messages you need to let that belief go expeditiously

“if politicians REALLY wanted to take care of kids…” they don’t. It is now and has always been a blatant lie, and I’m sick of playing along with the premise that they might.

A lot of the “kids online safety” proponents actually are anti-LGBTQ extremists and fundamentalists who want kids to have less freedom and don’t care if that actually makes them tremendously less safe too

"ai can't write good stories, but it's useful for concept art" "ai slop can't replace real artists, but it's fine for programming" "ai can't write maintainable code, but it's good for translations" everyone assumes their own field cannot be replaced by ai, but fields they understand less can be

love having to pay quarterly taxes knowing they'll be funding stuff like whatever the fuck was going on yesterday

The reason the government are doing absurd and unworkable bans, rather than regulating the platforms, is that this way it enables the fascist white supremacist billionaires who own these platforms to put much more surveillance slop into everyone's phones.

we'll do anything to rein in israel except anything that might actually work

congratulations go to new york for its recent victory in the national basketball competition

the president could have gone much further with his executive order to first come for the communists

if they didn't need tarps to put the letters up then they didn't need tarps to take them down. i am and will continue to be a tarp truther

It's not often that a living man gets such a vivid preview of how he will be mourned.

just start building up that scaffolding, boys, and don't stop unless you get the order from donald j trump himself *donald j trump dies* uh oh

his name is still up after midnight in violation of a court order. in a sensible country we'd be slapping handcuffs on the members of the kennedy center board right about now

There are rolls of tarp they will probably be putting up soon

just start building up that scaffolding, boys, and don't stop unless you get the order from donald j trump himself *donald j trump dies* uh oh
