“Good lord, and what do you call your act?” “The Athletics!”

Pro-tip for the Swalwell campaign staff now maligning the women accusing their boss of sexual misconduct: it's not worth it. There will be other campaigns and other candidates but there will never be another time that you won't regret behaving this way towards survivors.

A grave mistake? No, a grave *learning experience*

Breaking News: New video adds to evidence that a U.S. missile likely hit an Iranian school where 175 people, many of them children, were reportedly killed.

Forget everything you already know about America's most notorious dead person. Watch Jeffrey Epstein: Bad Pedophile youtu.be/XjhSoGcQhWU

Not to get political, but America is very pretty and has a lot of nice folks making cool things, and I think if we had a president who wasn’t actively trying to murder us, we could have a pretty good time

do not talk to strangers like you’re their fucking boss.

ICE claimed the father tried to hit them with his car or that he "dragged" one of the agents. Then bystander video was released showing this was completely false. ICE executed a man on the street in broad daylight.

Apple is sneaking AI into everything. Turn off enhanced visual search on your photos:

ICE took 2 firefighters OFF THE FUCKING FIRE LINE!?

If your business can’t succeed without stealing then it should obviously fail.

Immigration is the central issue of our century and progressives must defend it or lose absolutely everything to fascism

SCOOP — Members of DC National Guard are preparing to carry M17 pistols, multiple sources confirm to me. This follows earlier reports that the guard reversed course and would soon be arming members in DC. Now we know they’re making sure they meet requirements if/when the order to arm them comes.

BBC News: Do you think you were a witness to war crimes? American veteran who worked at Gaza Humanitarian Foundation aid distribution center: Without question I witnessed war crimes.

New in PN: RFK Jr. is wrong about autism "The Trump administration's attack on difference, the idea that people who are different are a tragedy and a burden and that they have nothing to contribute — that is fascism. And it is a danger to almost everyone."

🧵 THREAD: A federal whistleblower just dropped one of the most disturbing cybersecurity disclosures I’ve ever read. He's saying DOGE came in, data went out, and Russians started attempting logins with new valid DOGE passwords Media's coverage wasn't detailed enough so I dug into his testimony:

You cannot make this shit up. Sharing this jaw-dropping story with a gift link -- give it a read.

i have zero interest in most modern low budget shlock because it’s doing this self conscious “haha so bad it’s good just like the 80s!” thing. but you can’t produce that intellectually. you need to be trying to make a normal movie and have it come out wrong because you’re a crazy person

Scientists have just cured pancreatic cancer in some patients with personalized mRNA vaccines. Pancreatic cancer. And this Trump administration wants to throw it all away. They’re throwing away a cure for cancer.

A reminder in dark times: kindness, mercy, decency, and respect towards the least of us enrages Trumpists. It burns them. It’s like a mirror that shows them how they fall short of humanity. Kindness and decency towards the people Trumpists hate is not just right; it torments Trumpists.

What should confound them is that it's EVIL! Annexing Canada is EVIL! Introducing this completely foreign idea from within his degenerate brain is EVIL! Humoring it is EVIL! Weighing its pros and cons is EVIL! Weighing its fucking electoral impact is EVIL! THREATENING OTHER COUNTRIES IS EVIL! God!

Elon Musk has to realize he left us with no choice but to destroy his companies. No one elected him emperor of America to threaten our Social Security, cancer research, and personal data. There’s no other way to check him, which is the whole reason government exists. He wants this.

if you find yourself reluctant to support the guy at Columbia because you find some of the politics he espoused distasteful or even abhorrent, you should know that this is exactly the reaction that they hoped for in choosing him as a target for unlawful detention based on political speech.

America is fighting fascism by showing the rest of the world how fucking stupid fascism looks

If you are at an event where someone on stage gives a Hitler salute and that person is not dragged off by security and kicked out, you are at a Nazi rally.

Senate Democrats have the power to block federal contracts to Tesla and SpaceX. It’s the path to pushing Musk out of politics.

We're finally dismantling the federal government! Sure hope it doesn't serve essential functions that I've taken for granted my whole life

"Musk isn't going to obey the law, so who cares." "The Supreme Court will just throw out the case, so who cares." "Republicans aren't going to let us have elections, so who cares." I'm blocking these people on sight now. Doomerist defeatism isn't helping anyone here. Log off and touch grass.

NEW: Archived tweets for Gavin Kriger, Musk's 20-something DOGE employee wreaking havoc inside USAID, shows that Kriger has retweeted multiple neo-Nazis including Nick Fuentes, leader of the so-called Groyper movement, and another popular explicit Nazi account recently unmasked by @travisbrown.dev

"what do you expect dems to even DO?" filibuster every bill. refuse to cooperate on anything unless demands are met. then cancel their vacations to filibuster some more. tell every single dem in gov that disloyalty = no reelection funds yknow, the stuff GOP have been doing successfully for years

The men carrying out Musk's coup are Akash Bobba, Edward Coristine, Luke Farritor, Gautier Cole Killian, Gavin Kliger, and Ethan Shaotran. Make them famous. And, eventually, when possible, arrest them and charge them with multiple felonies. www.wired.com/story/elon-m...

When I was a Hill staffer in 2009, a Dem trifecta was trying to pass universal healthcare. In response, Senate GOP released a memo detailing all of the tactics they in the minority could use to delay the effort as much as possible. I'm recirculating that 2009 GOP memo here. Take inspiration from it.

If you think that trans people are getting our rights ripped away "because the left went too far," you're a moron. Everything happening to us today was written up and planned by the Family Research Council in 2015. The document is still public. It's all there. www.frc.org/transgender#...

Sergeant Gonell @sergeantaqgo.bsky.social sent me this picture. This is his call log. Each call is an automated Dept of "Justice" notification saying "The defendant you testified against is being released from the dept of corrections." Each defendant assaulted him.

David Lynch shot it down from heaven 💫

Being a “conservative intellectual” must rule so much. There’s this giant mass of babies that are scared of cities, mad at cartoons, and intimidated by women, and your job is to convince them having those feelings makes them brave warriors for western civilization

You will never succeed at fighting right wing disinfo with facts. Right wingers believe the first thing they hear & they'll believe it for life. They'll fight to the death about some inconsequential bullshit they just heard 5 seconds ago. You beat them by calling them weird assholes & isolating them

also a substantial portion of the U.S. government is specifically devoted to enacting an occult biblical ritual to bring about the second coming of jesus christ, and I'm just expected to be normal about that, too. like ah yes elected officials posting about red heifers, Very Regular Shit

all art is made from spite or horniness, and a computer cannot be spiteful or horny, so a computer should never make art

Juror #2 (2024) dir: Clint Eastwood

Musk's transphobia really hits different when you realize that he ordered all boys via IVF. He's worse than a bad father, he's a dissatisfied customer.

Daily reminder that the underlying purpose of AI is to allow wealth to access skill while removing from the skilled the ability to access wealth.

I'm pretty confident Elon wrote this bsky.app/profile/phil...

The moral of the story is that even an insufferable podcast bro can have a positive impact on society if they put their mind to it
