Finally saw Ballerina. The plot, like all the other John Wick films, is nothing but an excuse for a nonstop barrage of implausible, unbelievable, ridiculous, gratuitous, over-the-top action sequences. Yes, I'm saying I really enjoyed it.

If you voted for him, you've done this.

reposting with alt text because I think the choice to include homophobia and transphobia in particular here is actually very much worth drawing attention to. nuns emphatically stating that those “do not reflect the qualities of a saint” is a very clear callout of Cardinal Dolan

Did I mention there’s a $20,000 prize on the line?!

what is starting to really piss me off are academics - especially political-scientists - showing their complete ass every time this gang of wanna strongmen try and intimidate is with an empty gesture like this latest NSPM first off all, you should know the difference between an NSPM, EO, and law…

this is definitely outside the experience of an Americanist in the same way Stephen Walt would be out of pocket speaking authoritarively about central bank policy

hell yeah fuck yeah

I shared this with my students earlier. There's an online archive of IKEA catalogues going back to 1950. ikeamuseum.com/en/explore/i...

Have a lovely day y’all! ❤️❤️

What a way to live your life. I only personally know (or knew) one person who’s self-radicalised and it’s a sad and horrible thing to watch every redeeming feature burned on the altar of right-wing fuckery. What’s left isn’t pretty

Yes, this is the way to do it. newrepublic.com/article/2006...

it’s already fallen off every front page I can find except for a small “see the latest updates” link on reuters

the dude from the league is a real one

this is so lovely

It is not a coincidence that most of the videos you see of ICE agents using excessive force seem to feature unarmed women half their size. 🙃

If a government tells you that you can’t call it authoritarian, it’s authoritarian.

This is political violence, too.

They are beating women.

maybe someone’s finally gotten thru to congressional dems that this is how they get back to not shit-ass favorables and have a real shot at taking back congress

HEY-LA DAY-LA THE BEARS ARE FAT

this is why we need to bring back shame there need to be consequences for being a huge asshole, there need to be standards for how you behave in a decent society the rules cannot be set by the worst of us

Civic religion is dead. Long live civic religion.

VPN usage surged in the UK after the disastrous roll-out of their online ID check / age verification law. It took about 15 seconds for politicians there to start talking about banning VPNs. This is why we're organizing the #DefendVPNs day of action today. Join us!

I cannot stress enough that their entire project is one that *requires broad popular support* they’re moving ahead as if they have the kind of domestic support Erdogan or Putin had in the mid-2000s the best they have is congressional GOPers with a 2-3% lead over Dems. and that lead’s shrunk bigly

gotta remember that no one likes this shit

At a major "anti-hate" conference a few years ago I was on a panel where I lightly suggested big tech companies were faking their concerns about hate/misinfo. It didn't go over too well. But let the record show that once again I was right. They only care about money. www.yahoo.com/news/article...

If you want the Forest Service to be anything other than just a logging company get in those public comments, people

I feel like I've been inoculated against this specific weirdness because every time I see an article like this I hear Lauren Tom saying "Ooh, you're a real dreamboat, **BILLY EVERYTEEN**."

guess what’s back on the front page baybeeeeeee

I think this is the best summary of written of it to date.

this guy’s stupider than i thought

all will become Homer’s giant cowboy hat with a camera inside it

A network of right wing “pink slime” faux news sites is targeting “anti-American” classes at colleges & universities nationwide. #DefendHigherEd

The STEEL BATTALION controller is a joke compared to the one used for PVKK, a missile defense simulator (located outside Hall 10). They trained me up and I was shooting down missiles within about 2 minutes. This game rules

can someone please dub screeching tires and a massive crash noise over this video please

He looks like the AI art that wine moms post of Gavin newsom

So just to be clear: The US is propping up Argentina’s economy, and now Argentina can eliminate its export taxes, so it can sell tons of soybeans to China, so China isn’t forced to buy soybeans from the US, so the US can pay subsidies to keep our farmers solvent. www.reuters.com/world/china/...

When not impersonating a jelly donut, the Eastern red bat controls insect pest populations like gypsy moths, cutworms, coneworms, and tent caterpillars. Therefore: do not eat the crunchy, fuzzy, squeaky donut.

CHOTINER: And you didn’t know this person - what did you call him again? CELEBRIMBOR GREATEST OF THE ELVEN SMITHS: Right, his name was Annatar but CHOTINER: And you taught him to create a ring harnessing all his malice and cruelty? CELEBRIMBOR: Well I mean I was deceived CHOTINER: So you’ve said

I actually thought this was her

LET'S GOOO

People seem to be forgetting that DOJ doesn’t just “get” an indictment. They have to convince a grand jury to vote to return one, something this administration has struggled with recently.

"Wow another shooting that is terrible" "The left did it" "Are you just blaming the left for everything?" "Of course not, look - they wrote "I HATE ICE AND AM DOING THIS BECAUSE I HATE THEM SO MUCH, ALSO I AM TRANS AND WATCH JIMMY KIMMEL" on the bullets" "Is that a sharpie in your pocket?" "No"
