and a flight attendant was thrown 300ft from the plane *in her jump seat* and only has a broken leg. there was a time that would be two weeks of news just with that story

When twitter was perceived as liberal it was a bubble and people should not take it seriously. But now that it's a cesspool of right-wing propaganda it's the Soul of America and the libs ignore it at their peril

The figure that always blows my mind is that surgeries that remove cancerous tumors have a higher regret rate than gender reassignment surgery

remember that one time a train derailed in Ohio and literally nobody died but it was a news story for like a full week and Pete Buttigieg had to personally answer for it?

ICE has already started assaulting and kidnapping people from airports, as their children watch. The wall for every single person in this American gestapo.

Federal Agents Bust Down Teachers Door, Arrest Him in His Boxers for Protesting ICE “The brother kicked the door open and broke down the door,” said Drew Edwards, a school teacher & business owner. Edwards spoke outside the courthouse after being released from federal custody with dozens of others.

okay maybe i'll make posters

my son Portal 2 is so based!! he's always got his "dwinky baba" full of WHOLE milk and he doesn't know how restaurants work 🤣🤣🤣 he eats $30 mcdonalds burgers ordered on doordash by a sushi chef who's afraid i'll use my money and influence to ruin his life 🤣🤣🤣🤣 he's 25 and has never used stairs 😂🤣

Every day we wake up to tower blocks leveled, chemical weapons deployed, journalists struck with missiles, & endless footage of dead families. But it's still dismissed as "complicated" - or even "bigoted" - to suggest that occupied people have a right to resist & defeat such a terrorizer.

hi everyone. check out @heythatsmepod.bsky.social, a podcast I created specifically because of this issue. we do audio commentaries on stuff with people who worked on them that never got to do commentaries for them. thank you for your time.

Concentration camps are spreading across the US. Yet powerful people, including a CNN host who has yelled at you in your DMs, do NOT want you to use the term. Andrea Pitzer, author of One Long Night: A Global History of Concentration Camps, on why she calls a "concentration camp" what it is.

Turns out it didn't have legs

The War is Stupid: An Anti-War Podcast About War St. Patrick’s Day special with @maryhoulie.bsky.social is up on YouTube and wherever you get your podcasts! tr.ee/dO-DwZeNFc

wow we are arriving at the exact situation every single person imagined within one second of seeing their first robot dog

Okay but what if Trump was personally criticizing you as an official act in his capacity as president?

literally just an openly pro pedophilia admin, it's unreal

CEOs are so convinced AI is gonna replace everyone because CEOs can easily be replaced by AI. (They don't do real work)

I just bought a Monster energy and all it says for the flavor is Lando Norris, I’m not kidding either I’m looking all over this can and all it says for me to interpret a flavor is “Lando Norris”

Quite a few things have felt off to me about this war on Iran and one of them is that this would have been a weeklong story a few years ago and it won't rate at all now. There would have been chatter, columns, etc... about callousness and disregard etc... But now and with this guy, nothing.

republicans are in charge of everything and they are getting everything theyve ever wanted and doing everything theyve ever wanted and the world is on fire and the global world order is collapsing. is there a correlation? who can say

Admitting publicly that you only want this bill that is designed to disenfranchise voters is necessary to make sure your party wins is quite a choice. The GOP has done away with subtlety and euphemisms and is now all "we need to cheat because the polls say people don't like us."

Adam Baldwin was literally *the* guy who named GamerGate and made it go viral. It was just some loser 4chan/incel YouTuber shit before then. They spammed him to get his attention because they knew he’s also a psycho loser and they wanted to make it go viral, and he did it. And it worked.

This clip from @atrupar.com reminded me of this post by @radleybalko.bsky.social, quoting Alexander Solzhenitsyn in "The Gulag Archipelago" radleybalko.substack.com/p/clapping-f...

Host cities are increasingly on the hook for policing costs for major events. But why aren’t these costs covered by the event organizers? Thanks to a 2024 deal with the Academy Awards, LA’s no longer paying for Oscars security. Plus World Cup updates and so much more in this week’s Hot Links 🔥

Mark Ruffalo has a message for you: @markruffalo.bsky.social

CAMPAIGN UPDATE: 3 DAYS TO GO!!! 💥 AIPAC and dark money groups are PANICKING!! 💥 But we’re in the streets — and you can be too!! 💥 Canvass shifts in Algonquin, Morton Grove, Skokie, Evanston, and Andersonville!! 💥 Knock doors with me and Jamaal Bowman!! 💥 Phonebanking from 2 PM to 8 PM today!!

My neck hurts so bad and I can’t get an evaluation until June unless I call every Thursday and Friday at 8 am and someone cancels that day (do they have to cancel before 8 am?)

It’s true! My new record is out today, streaming absolutely everywhere! Take it for a spin why don’tcha! It is all the B-sides, bonus tracks, and two new remixes from my album Blame It On My Zodiac, but it plays as its own record. A Hatful Of Hollow kind of idea!

Disco!

I’m feeling very depressed

I have watched 6 hours of a DOGE bro deposition. The whole thing, start to finish. It's a fascinating, and horrifying, look at the people who caused so much damage, didn't really achieve anything at all, while still being so sure they are right. Here's what they said: www.404media.co/i-watched-6-...

I *really* don't want to be a downer but to me the precursor to Doing is Saying, and not nearly enough of this Party is saying what needs to be said. About punishing the villains, about abolishing billionaires, about ending elite impunity. Too many want to leave the rot but change the branding

I am identifying so hard with Rona in this current arc that I am looking around for cameras in my car and freshly unpacked suitcase

I mean can’t they just buy a better fitting pair of the same shoe? It’s not like he would be able to tell.

It's looking increasingly like these guys thought that if they could wreak more death and destruction than the other side then they would be respected as strong powerful men and they would "win" and that would make them big important heroes. Very possibly they had no rationale deeper than that.

18 Dems just voted *today* for Trump’s agenda. Does it make sense yet why they’re so unpopular?

I'd seen the first segment of this before, but the part about the Holocaust documentary is new to me. Not surprising but still astounding.

seems bad

They’re calling it Operation Epic Fail, the strategic killing of children and Americans in order to destroy the truce we had garnered with Iran after decades of careful diplomatic work and distract from the Epstein Files and the succession of the Epstein Pedo Cabal under its new leader Jared Kushner

did you know Iran used to be a western-style democracy, with an elected prime minister? but then one day in 1953, the CIA ousted him in a coup, and restored the repressive and corrupt Shah to power — that's REALLY how this mess all got started. you can read all about it in my post: bit.ly/4lfWn7c

“We’re gonna bomb 20 schools”
