No Kings includes Draft Kings

San Francisco is having its first competitive congressional race in like 40 years. All* I want to know about the candidates is whether they will vote to #abolishICE.

ESPN on site 40 miles from the super bowl

The theme of the past few months has been unimaginable courage in the face of an authoritarian government and people just want to ignore all that

Time for an American Schwerbelastungskörper en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Schwerb...

The US Holocaust Museum being more outraged by Tim Walz saying that, like Anne Frank, children today are in hiding from armed agents of the state, than they are about the fact that children are in hiding from armed agents of the state, is why Holocaust remembrance culture is in crisis.

I don't want to hear another word about "reforming" ICE. I want you to run in the midterms on removing every dollar of funding for ICE and impeaching every fucking administration official you can get your hands on.

Hey, seriously, Newsom can get fucked

Senate Democrats absolutely have to shut the govt down to stop this ICE insanity in the Twin Cities. This is not sustainable & cannot be normalized. Any Democratic vote to provide money to the thugs who are brutalizing this community is a grave betrayal to the people here. Accountability can't wait.

Given how often CSAM is used as an excuse for one erosion of privacy or another on the web even my prodigious capacity for cynicism is overcome by how extremely tepid the response has been to Elon's bot cranking out sexualized pix of young girls.

On this day in 1901, CLR James is born in Trinidad. James was an important anti-colonial activist, socialist historian, theorist, journalist and cricket aficionado. anticolonialhistory.com/event/148/

@nytpitchbot.bsky.social Arts & Entertainment: They used Van Halen and The Doors to capture Manuel Noriega. Does the lack of rock and roll involvement in the Maduro operation signal the decline of the genre? We interview 5 middle age white guys and one token woman to find out.

Competition: which are news media more credulous of, police statements to the media or "what a chatbot said"

You FUCKED UP, your LEFTY politics have ALIENATED the BILLIONAIRES who run the CHILD BONE EXTRACTION FACTORIES and now they will do a MASS EXODUS from your STATE or CITY. Don’t CRY to ME when you no longer see their CHILD CATCHING VANS in your STATE or CITY, YOU IDIOT

It's almost like making cars autonomous doesn't solve all the problems cars cause. sfist.com/2025/12/31/w...

I look forward to reading, once the AI bubble bursts and it turns out that LLMs are useful for a relatively narrow range of things and nearly all the people they tried to replace with AI need to be hired back, all the earnest economic articles about the Lost Productivity of the AI epidemic.

the democrats are so feckless even the snarky pseudonymous blue sky hippo is dropping the act

Any time anyone suggests taxing these assholes more they always claim they're gonna run away but they never do because (relatively) high-tax places are honestly pretty great cause we use taxes to make them better. But dipshits like the New York Times always fall for it.

Biological men have no place in a women’s room. Unless those men are ICE agents.

It has never been about immigration. it's racism, and it's intimidation. and profit for some. Allowing it to happen to any group means it's a possibility for everyone, and that's how fascism maintains power while being horrible.

The #1 movie from when you were 10 years old is how your 2026 will go.

The New York Times has achieved perfection. There is no headline that could possibly make me want to read a piece less.

When this "AI" bubble pops, the men pretending they weren't pushing the hype, like "critics" whose position is "AGI is real but LLMs aren't the way," who were in eugenicist and "AI existential risk"🙄 circles, will get specials discussing what they saw coming, when its the women who told you so.

Trump’s obsession with me is beyond weird. He needs serious help. Since he has no economic policies to tout, he’s resorting to regurgitating bigoted lies instead. He continues to be a national embarrassment.

It continues to amuse me that the Muni buses pronounce it "valen-cha"

Is there a less efficient way to communicate basic concepts than an institutional HR online training course?

No bailouts. The US should extort these companies when the crash happens so they get minimal compensation in return for nationalizing the entire panopticon industry and then destroying it once harvested for socially useful parts. It won’t happen but it should

On the scale of indignities the internet inflicts on us it's pretty low but I still harbor a hatred for the retargeting nonsense where a company sends you an ad and you click on it and then they send you like three emails a day for a week asking "do you still want it? did you forget about it?" etc.

Democrats Relent on Shutdown. Sadly this was so predictable. Cowards. (gift article) www.nytimes.com/live/2025/11...

Abundance fans, come get your boy

We’d be in a much stronger position right now if mainstream Democrats had taken a common sense stand for First Amendment principles instead of piling on undergraduate standing up for Palestine.

Oh look Malcolm Gladwell is even more wrong about trans women than he is about everything else. www.lgbtqnation.com/2025/09/icon...

Important to remember that everyone involved in renaming the DoD to the Department of War is afraid to take the subway.

There is absolutely no excuse for any Democrat asked about trans athletes to ever respond with anything but “why are you wasting my time asking about FEWER THAN FIFTEEN CHILDREN AND YOUNG ADULTS IN THE ENTIRE COUNTRY WHO WANT TO PLAY GAMES WITH THEIR FRIENDS. What is wrong with you?”

Once you have a lemon tree that "when life gives you lemons" saying starts to make sense

In a museum a couple days ago I noticed they referred to dates as B.C.E and C.E. instead of B.C. and A.D. I'm surprised Trump hasn't complained about this. I mean I realize museums are not his turf, but it seems like the kind of thing that he'd denounce as Too Woke.

As I always say, as a Jewish person, I am mortified at what is being done under the guise of "fighting antisemitism."

Why are they they fighting Zohran harder than they’re fighting Trump

Whereas a lot of Jews are like “as a normal person, Mamdani thinks what’s happening in Gaza is outrageous”

If you’re an elected Democrat (rightly) complaining about the GOP kicking 17 million people off of Medicaid, now is a good and credible time to critique the entire broken work-based non-universal US healthcare system. Now is the time to call for universal healthcare, for Medicare for All.

stop running away from trans people and fight back

schadenfreudescrolling

crush your enemies, see them driven before you, and hear the lamentations of their consultants

sorry I can't get over how cynical this is. dude *just* voted for a bill that was pushed by the crypto lobby and left out any protections against Trump's corruption. *now* he's claiming to address the issue with a bill that will never pass? this is galling even by modern Dem standards

The Bubonic Plague has a higher approval rating than war with Iran.

The greatest trick the devil ever pulled was convincing the world that the continued existence of human civilization is a partisan issue.

If there's one legacy of the War in Iraq that Democrats should have internalized, it's the fact that those who lined up behind the war drums all came to regret that decision while those who wisely refused to go along were soon vindicated. One of the latter rode that decision to the White House!
