No, this really really really is rape

Holy crap

NEW: Months after FCC Commissioner Olivia Trusty cast a decisive vote approving Paramount’s historic $8 billion merger with Skydance Media, she and a guest accepted Kennedy Center gala tickets from the company worth more than $12,000.

An amazing quote from Lindsey Graham in this Atlantic story. It really captures an essential truth about politics that too few people ever really come to terms with. www.theatlantic.com/ideas/2026/0...

Ding ding ding

ICE killed a random guy today.

Lindsey Graham was one of the main subjects of a @theatlantic.com cover story I wrote in 2020, on why people collaborate with regimes they know are immoral. Here's a gift link: www.theatlantic.com/magazine/arc...

This x1000

Cyclosporiasis is a parasite transmitted through fecal matter, currently spreading in the U.S. due to DJT constantly shitting all over the Constitution.

feels like a real landmark of impunity that major corporations are making federal crimes part of the interview process

This is next level bad

KEY: all three witnesses are being detained apart, and their story is consistent. They say that there were agents along the side of the vehicle but none in front. When you add the videos showing a lack of evidence of damage to the front despite ICE's ramming claim, ICE's story is falling apart.

Sex pests all the way down

Is this not a good enough reason to leave X for good??

Okay, those are great names and logos.

As a fellow member of the Prominent Ears Community, I’d like to state publicly that this man does not represent us or our values. Thank you.

I’m so confused

Anyway working on the media back end of these stories is extremely illuminating and has made me read them very differently when I see them come out.

Brilliant

Here’s my thought. If/when Platner drops out, why don’t we just run through the RCV primary votes and remove the Platner votes? The fact is that some people will be upset no matter what the outcome, but what’s most important is that the process is as democratic as possible. 1/

Call It, friendo.

I think only living people should serve in elected office.

The Graham Platner fiasco proves that the Democrat Party is far too tolerant of sexual predators. by Matt Gaetz, Roy Moore, Pete Hegseth, Jim Jordan, Dennis Hastert, Blake Farenthold, Trent Franks, Herman Cain, Cory Mills, Clarence Thomas, Brett Kavanaugh, and Donald J. Trump

absolutely insane story, and yeah, just looking at this chart... with the exception of maybe two people, this entire class was cheating like motherfuckers

This vehicle has 46 mi of range and a top speed of 19mph. This is not an affordable $14k car; it is an overpriced $14k golf cart. Can we please stop rewarding car companies with gushing press coverage for this bs? Make affordable electric cars! You have one job!

“Non-consensual sex” is rape.

It’s great to have so many new supporters. I wanted to share this excellent interview I did a while back because I think it does a great job of highlighting who I am as a candidate.

I think the Platner thing hit me so hard bc it was one of the most protracted, widespread acts of misogynist gaslighting from my own side that I've seen. We were presented with an obvious violent scumbag who was constantly lying (badly, might I add) and told we were crazy for not loving him

Please read every word of this absolute brilliance from @rebeccasolnit.bsky.social.

Rules are for other people. Usually brown people.

Here’s the part where I show my receipts. And my spelling errors. Dammit.

If roughing up a girlfriend and locking her in a room was a virile, authentic a rejection of “smoothgroined” “HR lady” politics, but a rape is too far, then what’s at stake is not a principled rejection of violence against women but a cynical assessment of how much violence a man can get away with.

I think this is correct

ELIZABETH WARREN calls on Platner to drop out: “There can be no tolerance for sexual assault… With so much at stake, the best path forward is for Graham Platner to step aside as the Democratic nominee and address these serious allegations outside this Senate race.”

let this be a lesson to deal with your feelings of gender anxiety and masculine inadequacy with a hobby or therapy or something and not a high stakes senate election

Hey remember when Microsoft said when buying all these developers that their consolidation would not harm consumers or employees and instead provide stability and allow Xbox to compete with PlayStation and Nintendo?

If only someone had told us about Platner’s sketchy past! If only there were signs!

This is a really moving and thoughtful interview
