So in Virginia, Dems are rightfully gonna attempt to basically completely gerrymander congressional republicans out of congress. Our two Senators, Tim Kaine and Mark Warner have been advocating for a more moderate gerrymander. This is how one of the key VA state Democrats responded.

This is the kind of shit that would make you completely outside the bounds of any ancient society, the gods bestow generational curses for violating hospitality

It is unfair that the collective noun for rabbits isn't "bundle"

I'm half awake and probably more than a little bit mentally unwell. Who wants me to rant about how I think moral philosophy and trauma are the real causes of the Great Filter/Fermi Paradox, and any sufficiently advanced aliens would rather die than be morally responsible for their existence...

how do mouse girls play techno... on squeakuencers... anyways

I don't like those two statements being joined.

we are truly in our Bad Sentence To Read Era

Every example of ai being useful begins with "okay imagine you're in a situation, and you are very dumb"

Are quail more promiscuous on cocaine? Rand Paul can't just post that without telling people.

And as much as the losers on this website accuse me of dooming, I don’t think the fascist have anywhere close to the power for an organized suppression by intimidation and violence! The greater threat is being negotiated into an illegitimate power sharing agreement with them by our own opposition!

I still think a viral post on Bluesky should be called a blukkake.

Morning.

it's the big day

was not expecting the introduction section on the dilbert wikipedia to conclude quite this brutally holy SHIT

We have an update on Charlie’s newfound love of printing.

Impeaching Noem is symbolic and symbols matter. And it should be used as an organizing tool and a way to keep the issues about ICE/DHS fresh in people's minds and importantly to propose ACTUAL ways to dismantle these institutions. This is the point I've been making for the past few weeks.

Since House Judiciary is unlikely to do an investigation, Dems should start doing Shadow hearings on this and also start doing community based sessions in their districts focused on this and ICE/DHS. Ask directly impacted people to testify, keep a record, start planning for dismantling...

"In order to impeach Noem, House Democrats would need to secure a simple majority, or 218 votes, in favor of impeaching her. This process typically begins with an investigation in the House Judiciary Committee, of which Kelly is not a member." - The important thing now is to use this to organize.

ChatGPT plagiarizing Bambi Sleeps: Scott Adams: This is far too powerful.

This reminds me of a years old sketch of Anubis I have on a corkboard in my living room.

the people's dilbert issue #1

dilbert guy had his hypnosis thing, he tried to make people nut via blog post because he thought his hypnosis could go through internet do u think he ever watched sissy hypno? do you ever think he believed himself in a psychic duel with evil leftist behind "big sissy hypno" while watching it?

Scott Adams had a real nasty death. I'll clown on his shit politics and philosophy all day, but damn...I've seen people with cancer hitting their bones. That is honestly bad enough I feel sorry for him. My friend was lucky to survive...and still needed an organ transplant.

Yeah it's called being an American, bitch. Smugness towards authority is our founding trait.

Mothers Against Drunk Driving doesn't have the pull it once did.

RIP Scott

I think forcing a website to shut down until the "Create revenge porn" switch is put in the "off" position is an acceptable form of government censorship

Oh, so EVERYONE hated that.

I think its fucking crazy that Grok is actively generating deepfakes and csam as we speak but if I want to commission a nsfw painting of two fictional characters and pay it through paypal I could get myself and the artist banned from the site. Like honestly, fuck all of this.

Sorry it took me this long to get here, folks

Jesus Christ I had to look up if this was actually a podium she spoke in front of because I honestly could not believe they would be this incredibly bold. I thought it would be AI or photoshop or something. unfortunately it is real.

Who cares. I have a better chance of being president than Rahm Emanuel.

Joining the army I get, most people don't know what that is, but joining ICE only means one thing at this point. And in any case, you can just quit ICE any time you want, you're not in for 4+ years on a contract. Bad Empanada is up his own ass here.

idk man, im "tried to sell my blood at a shady for-profit plasma place once" desperate for money and i've never thought about joining the SS as an option
