Admirable statement, exemplary humanity in dire times.

"I demand to be protected from the consequences of my own actions -- it's not like I'm a black pickpocket!"

Just so we're all clear, this is a war crime and would be punishable by life or death under U.S. law.

lol. CBS had been trying to get Zohran Mamdani for an interview, but Bari Weiss' deranged tweeting caused him to turn it down link.vanityfair.com/view/5df1007...

a comprehensive critique of my conservatism essay - argues that, even if their core themes were a bit different, conservatism *became* fascism

Extremely common. It's one of the reasons people don't do advocacy or stop doing it. Here's one my sub got just now for instance. This is constant

What IS gender? Your gender identity is your sense of self in relation to the sexed traits of your body and how the society you are in defines and understands gender and sex. Gender is how we explain that complicated sense of self to each other with simplifications, allegory and metaphor.

Also note that you can do this the minute you take control of Congress. Pass a joint resolution declaring Trump ineligible under 14AS3!

More and more people are saying!

i think that it is plainly obvious that we should bankrupt Palantir on day one by cutting all of its contracts and declaring it a supply chain risk.

Over under on how many of these Marines shared this meme unironically?

"While Frederick Douglass was in Great Britain, supporters arranged to purchase his freedom from Maryland slaveholder Thomas Auld. In the letter we republish below, Douglass responds to a letter from a friend, H. C. Wright, who thought Douglass should not welcome that action done by his supporters."

I 100% called it that non-Muslim right-wingers would engage in slut-policing Rama Duwaji in the name of Islam

I think a woman can wear what she wants in her own home no matter what a racist robot has to say about it

Blocking the box is almost completely unenforced in NYC and it shows

the stink of gender resentment coming off Silicon Valley has been obvious for a while. these men hate women because they hate being told no.

This is a very popular take that merely restates the problem it purports to solve. Which is largely one of perception that gives enormous credit to right-wingers and little to anyone on their left. A lot of Democrats *do* talk about these things and have gotten more overt about it lately.

Whereas personally, I am here and will remain here, they'll have to kill me before I give this up. www.unpopularfront.news/p/the-trap

Ah cool, Israeli war crimes directly driving violence against the Diaspora. I hate it here!

They believe this will rid them of the meddlesome PMC who tells them "No" and "Bad idea" and who are dependent upon their skill sets and knowledge not a rich patron.

Owens won many celeb gossip fans by talking about the Blake Lively-Justin Baldoni lawsuit, in a way that an uninformed person may not click as right-wing. These fans then marinated in her antifeminism but also WILD antisemitism. (1/3)

Great idea? Citibike should do a completely free month

We had essentially solved the problems of economic recession and access to commodities (at least, domestically) and a bunch of bored idiots blew it up because they were absolutely certain that they could get a "better deal." No, man, the sub-80 IQ real estate guy didn't know how to get a better deal

Sorry about your business, but at least you can find comfort knowing that because of your vote, there is some young confused trans kid crying in the backroom bedroom of a double wide in rural louisiana, having suicidal ideations and miserable because everyone hates them and they hate themselves.

by @quinnae.com "This is the humanistic mainspring of feminism, and what universalism can mean. Not an obliteration of one’s unique needs or of one’s culture by a hegemon, but an understanding that the shared inheritance of our very humanity is something that can allow us to struggle together"

Philippa Foot: I invented the Trolley Problem to expose the flaws of consequentialism. Our entire society: Finally we have created the Trolley Problem from classic philosophical work Do Not Create The Trolley Prob— *out-of-control trolley ploughs through the group, mercifully ending the debate*

I've basically gone full Schmittian when it comes to these cretins. Ogles and his ilk aren't counterparties in a democratic system; they are sworn enemies of the American republic who are working to destroy it from within.

Right on cue, it's time to subsidize drivers at non-drivers expense again, as is tradition.

I don’t think people who aren’t regularly covering the reproductive rights beat realize how common it is for women to be incarcerated for miscarriages.

Even as a cynical scholar of rape culture, I'm shocked that this isn't the headline story on domestic politics everywhere right now. It's just an unfathomable abuse of power, in clear violation of the law.

Part of Trump’s mass appeal (and of why he’s so dangerous) is that he really seems to share Joe Barstool’s worldview that there are no complex problems: Everything has a simple brute solution, which previous leaders were somehow too stupid or weak to deploy.

You'd think seeing 2 ambulances stuck in traffic would be a problem requiring solutions...

This puts me at 10 people released. I filed my 1st habeas petition 29 days ago. I am an incredibly small-time, nobody lawyer who knew nothing about immigration law the day I submitted that case. I barely know any more today. I had never sued the federal government and now I've beaten them 10 times.

This is true, and a key thing to reflect on: one can be agnostic about tech in the abstract, but this tech *doesn't exist in the abstract*. It only exists concretely, and do you imagine you'll have more control over its concrete expression than the wealthiest people in the world? If so, how so?

remember how they sent that Roman consul to Carthage to have him ceremonially executed? yeah, that

Bumping this for the daytime crowd, as I'd like to get a heating-oil order in tomorrow if I can. 🙂

You’d think this gentleman would be more appreciative of the taboo against slurring the cognitively impaired, all things considered.

I FUCKING HATE THIS SHIT (AND THIS GUY)

This is very good.

Can anyone tell me what the bike industry and/or People For Bikes are doing about the way e-bikes are being blamed for havoc caused by people riding electric motorcycles?!!? WAY MORE THAN HALF THE STORIES ABOUT DEATHS CAUSED BY E-BIKES DO NOT INVOLVE E-BIKES. THIS IS KIND OF IMPORTANT.

Excellent idea

yeah, my first guess would be the guys working for the dude bragging on TV about how his boys don't have to worry about any limp dick rules of engagement restrictions anymore too.

Truly the greatest movie of all time. My favorite fun fact was that the actor who played major Strasser fled Germany with his Jewish wife rather than denounce her. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Conrad_Veidt?wprov=sfti1#Emigration#Emigration

Starting to read The Invisible Bridge and oh my god, Glonzo theory from the first page There is nothing new under the sun

València’s protected bike lanes. Cons: - bi-directional paths squeezed into busy arterial streets - VERY narrow travel lanes - some paths needed maintenance and/or smoother pavement Pros: - an expanding network - lots of shared streets in the city center - nice biking weather 😎

a big part of project 2025 is increasing how often this sort of horrible crime occurs - because abusing children is the core belief of conservatives and Republicans

Every once in a while I’m lucky enough to be filming when a falcon takes flight 🪶✈️ Peregrine Falcon, Astoria NY, 3.1.2026

I fall back on being a smarmy asshole as a defensive mechanism, but I really did spend a good chunk of last night heaving over the toilet almost throwing up on the verge of tears after reading about this and then checking CNN and the front page story was about the six American soldiers killed.
