We cannot be more clear. Leave us the fuck alone.

The “prosecute the former regime at every level” candidate has my vote in 2028.

hey @rentouljohn.bsky.social here’s another answer to your clueless question

My personal theory- MSP has a lot of traits associated with "coastal liberal" cities, but since it's in the Midwest- what reactionaries consider "their" turf- that's regarded as a betrayal of whiteness in a way LA and NYC aren't.

This being the headline for a Fox News affiliate is a major through the looking glass moment

This is why we keep saying: keep filming ICE. Recording law enforcement in public is completely legal as long as you are not obstructing. As a career public defender, I can tell you: video evidence matters. Footage from today is likely to become central evidence in the prosecution of the agent.

He’s half right…

Crockett: "Everyone wants to talk about how Maduro was illegitimate. As we sit here on January 6, I do want to be clear: somebody else was trying to be a Maduro of the United States. Somebody else wanted to do the exact same thing. The difference is Maduro was successful."

IR people who decry gender studies or arguments are fish refusing to believe the study of water is important.

I want this site to beat twitter, and for twitter to evaporate. For that to happen, people you hate must have a more pleasant experience posting here than posting there. A minority of this site decided instead that they want it to be their little club, so that's what we have.

transmisogyny is bewildering. parker asks a naive question about why are making horny mods about the dog girl and there's a whole segment of responses calling her a transphobic furryphobic nazi. let alone also the whole aspect of Gamers™ getting outraged if a woman isn't sexually objected enough.

Two Aliens Looking At Bluesky

there it is. it's all about having his own "we got him" moment. dude got so burned by obama at the WHCD that everything since then has been downstream from that

What’s incredible is not only that this happened, but that every single one of us saw it happen live, and then the entire political universe turned around and instantly said the outcome reflected a public preference for Trump’s policy agenda.

It is an on-demand revenge porn and CSAM bot. How is it still functioning and how are people not in jail.

Kamala Harris would not have illegally bombed a foreign country and kidnapped their leader. All folks had to do was use common sense in the voting booth but apparently that was a bridge too far🤷🏾‍♀️ If you did anything other than vote for Harris you helped get us to today.

The reason, perhaps, why “illegality” isn’t the pwn we want it to be is that many, many people for many, many different reasons do not see the law as something that serves the public good. It serves elites. It serves big business. It serves violent cops. It serves billionaire rapists. And so on.

the chinese communist party looks to chinese history for its grievances but not for its solutions, one might say

My new theory is the one-two punch of the New Deal & Great Society broke the minds of elites in the GOP & media because they saw average Americans prospering in a way different from themselves, and it broke progressives' brain because they saw people satisfied with what they thought wasn't enough.

As soon as he said “chainsaw,” I thought “great idea! That’s what I should do next!” Then I read on Uh oh

I’ll never look at an alligator, real or imagined, the same way again. Fantastic writing; both informative and delightful

This is one of the most beautiful things I have witnessed, the craft here is impeccable.

My bike got stolen so I got an e-bike which also got stolen so I did a lot of hiking instead

Respect the bait 🫡

I think people today don't understand just how dramatically the night sky has changed - it looked like it does in super remote areas *everywhere* before the invention of electric lighting, and light pollution that obscures the sky has gotten dramatically worse in the last 25 years.

I grew up seeing the stars through my bedroom window, and I feel like it’s a human rights violation that so many children grow up without them

no they just don’t want to talk about very real problems with someone for whom the impact is theoretical

Friction is good

Friction is good and one of the most consequential tasks facing the designers and managers of social-technical systems in the 21st century is putting it back in in the right ways and right places.

By the same Graeme Wood who wrote, re Gaza: “It is possible to kill children legally, if for example one is being attacked by an enemy who hides behind them. But the sight of a legally killed child is no less disturbing than the sight of a murdered one."

You've been kidnapped. The characters from the last TV show you watched are trying to rescue you. Who's coming to save you? I’ll be fine. My rescue will have waffles

This is why I felt more comfortable spending my life in foreign cultures. Removing the presumption that we share an implicit language has made my life dramatically easier

The idea that autistic people lack empathy is still depressingly prevalent, partly because people conflate 'caring about other humans' wellbeing & wanting them to be happy' with 'reliably able to infer a stranger's motivation & emotional state based off observing a few external nonverbal clues'.

“These men risked their lives to speak with us. We have a moral and professional obligation to the sources who entrusted us with their stories. Abandoning them now is a betrayal of the most basic tenet of journalism: giving voice to the voiceless.”
