Nobody actually goes to escape rooms, they are a conspiracy by television writers to justify bullshit bottle episode plots.

Is there anything that advertises on youtube that isn't some bullshit scam late night talk radio would not touch with a ten foot pole?

Trying to recall the theme of last Saturday's nationwide rallies...

New piece on the response to Charlie Kirk's murder, the dynamics between the woke left and authoritarian right, and the danger to democracy. culturewarblues.substack.com/p/free-speec...

I can't stand Ben Burgis, he’s an archetypal milquetoast DSA social democrat who read a lot of Marx (via Gerry Cohen) and LARPs as a materialist despite tailing a lot of identitarian far left antifeminism. So I resent the necessity of defending him from leftist misogynists like this Chud. But here…

Ben Burgis having a stopped clock moment.

Oh yeah a real whodunnit www.nytimes.com/2025/10/23/w...

This article claims that the immigration courts acted independently before this year. NOPE. Order in the Court www.newyorker.com/inside-donal...

Pay your fucking taxes asshole, you don't get to earmark personal grants to the federal government. You have to be a colossal prick to think this is laudatory.

So @esmeestreachailt.bsky.social, the latest gorgon mob joint was intriguing but I didn't really follow what you were talking about having happened at FILIA. Is there a breakdown or recapitulation I missed somewhere out there?

Interesting perspective from adweek on Cuomo’s cartoonishly racist AI campaign video: www.adweek.com/media/cuomo-...

So the US media has just decided not to cover the virulently racist Cuomo AI ad? Wow.

"Eric Trump Says Curtis Sliwa Should Drop Out to Give Cuomo a Chance." When the Trump crime family is endorsing Andrew Cuomo for NYC mayor it tells you all you need to know about Cuomo.

It's not just what Andrew Cuomo is saying—it's who's funding him. The single largest donor to a pro-Cuomo SuperPAC is Airbnb cofounder/board member Joe Gebbia, who promotes vile and racist messages about immigrants.

BREAKING: Jack Smith is insisting upon a public hearing if Congress wants to talk to him Good. Why does the GOP want backroom secret questioning? What are Republicans afraid of? Let the American people see & hear for themselves!

BREAKING: Jack Smith is requesting that Congress and the Justice Dept. let him testify in public. In new letters to the House and Senate Judiciary Committees, Smith says he wants to testify "in open hearings" because of "the many mischaracterizations" around his investigations.

Cuomo’s supporters are everything wrong with the democratic party.

This is low key the thing I like most about Mamdani. Baby baskets are a real benefit even for families with lots of private resources. Starting off life with the ethos that we are all in this together and we can take collective action to make things better for newborns is incredibly important.

Next year, we'll welcome 125,000 new New Yorkers to our city. But many families don't have what they need to give their babies a healthy start. Building on @bkbpreynoso.bsky.social's pilot, we'll launch citywide Baby Baskets, providing new parents with essential items and resources.

Not going to seek congressional authorization for using military force. Just going to engage in premeditated killing outside of armed conflict. There's a word for that.

"Nero would feel right at home," and other sick burns skillfully wrought in this well-written architectural critique of what is going down at 1600 Pennsylvania Ave NW. www.theguardian.com/artanddesign...

A phoney, unauthorized war. Just lawless killing.

any engineers out there who aren't coders looked into whether LLMs are on their way to replacing them? Which subfield is most AI proof?

1) Trump likes dramatic, performative military action—hence these strikes. 2) The “25,000” figure seems to refer to deaths from fentanyl. Fentanyl is not aboard these boats. 3) There’s a term for premeditated killing outside of armed conflict: murder.

That would be Secretary of State Marco Rubio, the nation's top diplomat, in the Oval Office for a meeting btwn the U.S. president and the NATO Secretary-General in the middle of a brutal war in Europe, staring at plans for a ballroom that will replace the now-demolished East Wing of the White House.

Such humiliation is the price SecState is willing to pay for the prize of regime change in Caracas.

it is kinda amazing that despite being world-emperor trumps brain can only think to run slightly larger-scale scams than the scams he ran when he as just a new york real estate mogul

Obviously this is an extremely carefully formulated counter narcotics policy.

Fact of the matter is, if Bernie Sanders wasn't backing planter, the radlibs would never have heard of him and would not give a shit about his tattoos. The fit of howling fantods says more about the meltdown subject than the meltdown object.

Has anyone seen a good picture of this skull & crossbones tattoo everyone is convinced makes Platner a cryptofascist? the only photo I can find is so blown out and degraded I wouldn't have known there was a skull in it unless someone told me it was there.

never forget

What keeps me up at night is the thought that these air strikes on venezuelan fishing boats are the result of Stephen Miller reading dale carnegie and learning about the foot in the door technique.

If the opposition party can't burn shit down over this then they aren't truly an opposition

actual feudal kings have been dethroned and beheaded for offenses less egregious than this

sorry, man, but this is breathtakingly, shockingly corrupt in every fucking way it can be, and an open and shut and uncomplicated case for impeachment. he didn’t even pay for these lawyers, his donors did, for fuck’s sake.

This is why the left cant have nice things. Fucking hippie nihilism.

Oh look, a radlib internet grift run by a racist white lady who’s an aspiring new age guru. Ive seen some internet cults in my time, but this one is next level…

Do not trust these people.

Why cant they see the fucking grift?! Arrrggh!

I have a new line in the sand, if you think a bad blown out tattoo of a skull and cross bones some jarhead got while on a bender with his buddies in Croatia is absolutely 100% a sign that he’s a secret Nazi? Trump is your fault.

earnest weeaboo rethinking his manji 卍 tattoo in case he wants to run for senate

25 bucks for tuna and asparagus poke seems downright reasonable these days.

My only criticism of Anna’s reporting is that Halligan said Anna could ask about anything, but Anna didn’t ask if she knows who runs DOGE.

If only she were in some body that could stop tariffs.

Non-existent fentanyl is the non-existent WMDs of 2025.

I was thinking this also. And what if they discover they can't actually write a check b/c of the government shutdown and their contractor walks away?

I'm not a West Wing obsessed lib or anything but the more I see pictures of this the more fucked up I think it is. It's like he cut off one of the hands of the Lincoln memorial with an angle grinder so he could add a big gun to it.

Sorry, it's $250 million. My mistake. www.pbs.org/newshour/pol...

Kevin Schilling, the mayor of Burien running for state legislative office this year in Washington is an example of everything wrong with democrats. This assessment goes easy on him if you can believe that…. progressivevotersguide.com/washington/?...
