So many problems with this country are directly traceable back to Reagan.

they put the postal service in the fucking constitution it is a public service and not supposed to make a fucking profit aaaaaaaaaaa

We don’t spend enough time discussing how the entire MAGA movement is kept afloat by the constant threats of stochastic terrorism orchestrated by the president of the United States. Congress, the courts, much of the media … all kept in line by the mob boss and his army of anonymous goons.

not surprising it’s a white woman who looks like she has a stick up her ass saying you should just endure toxic and abusive family environments

If she’d been a better swimmer, she’d be much poorer today. But MAGA is a grift machine for losers

This man is a cancer and any future way forward needs to start with holding him accountable in a court of law for his crimes.

lol watching DS9 Rules of Engagement and it's a bit jarring having a Klingon with a New York accent. (Ron Canada, Ch'Pok)

Happy Festivus, Mets fans! 😁 #LGM #MetsSky

Okay, neopixel strips and WLED controller is pretty sweet.

One downside to living where I do is the Chinese restaurants are closed on Christmas. I'm not on the east coast anymore.

I don't think free speech on campus ought to mean that a young coddled bigot gets to use their ignorance to casually destroy the career of a knowledgeable trans person on a random Wednesday

Cool how we are smuggling domestic news in over the border from canada and people having to share it on bulletproof hosting providers to stop the government and media owners taking it down

NASA engineers manage to upload 60 Minutes segment to Voyager 2.

I kept seeing people use the word samizdat to refer to the Canadian sourcing of the 60 Minutes report on CECOT pulled by Bari Weiss. Here's the definition from Merriam-Webster:

I’m enjoying Bari Weiss’s run at CBS far more than I thought I would.

Bringing back Limewire to illegally rip copies of reporting suppressed by the government is definitely some cyberpunk shit

I kind of like this whole “We won’t buy your liquor but we will air your state-suppressed news stories” niche that Canada’s apparently carved out.

you can tell so much about people by whom they give the benefit of the doubt to

it's been removed. CBS is doing its best to prevent people from seeing it. massive embarrassing corporate effort to censor their own vital reporting. what a travesty.

Why is everything such shit and why are so many people actively trying to make it worse?

The Heritage Foundation is going through an internal shift to a form of white supremacy that does not recognize any Jews as belonging inside the tent of whiteness

BREAKING: Instacart is ending all price testing on its platform in the wake of this report.

This and not returning shopping carts are what led to the downfall of our society.

People who listen to video loudly in public. Why do you do this. What the fuck is wrong with you

I think there's an idea that unified opposition to the GOP means never demanding better from the opposing party. But, I mean, some voted against trans kids and against immigrants! What are they doing? At a minimum, use your power to resist. Like come on.

As is the case with Musk, and even Trump, the most grotesque part is not their existence — awful people have always been around and always will be. The most grotesque part is nominally smart or honest or decent people taken in by them. Or, at least, pretending to be taken in, for advantage.

I don't even identify as a "Democratic voter" but I would like some people in the federal government to take responsibility for offering something better than, Trump is bad. No shit; I already know that! So what are you offering other than, we don't actually like immigrants or trans kids either.

stop telling people that they should use a hammer to make their coffee, and if they can't get the hammer to make coffee, it's their fault for being dumb Luddites

This is true but it is also exactly why she was hired for this job.

are we still performing surprise at nyt sanewashing

So you’re saying every MLB team is worth at least a billion dollars. Interesting.

Just passed through your neck of the woods, if you need a last minute Xmas gift, this gas station got you covered!

Important context here: when Peter Thiel and David Sacks began their war on diversity as undergrads at Stanford, thirty years ago, the very first tactic they adopted was to normalize slurs that had already been stigmatized out of mainstream society. This return of these hateful terms was a key goal.

Parisot (the Director) tells a story about how Tim Allen just started crying after a scene one day "I don't like these feelings i'm having." Says Tim. "I'm going back to my trailor" and walks off. There's silence for a second. "Oh my god." Says Rickman. "I think Tim just experienced acting."

really cannot be emphasized enough that bari weiss has literally never done journalism. i don’t mean that in the pejorative sense. i mean that in the “has never performed the job she was hired to do” sense

Andrew Johnson illegally fired Edwin Stanton on Feb 21, 1868. The House voted, in a one-sentence resolution, to impeach him on Feb 24. The actual articles were adopted March 2-3. The Senate trial began on March 4. Twelve days from the offense itself to facing trial for it.

Yes. The fascist politicians and billionaires who are currently ruining the country are massively mediocre thinkers and monumentally uncreative chumps. They have the advantage of a total lack of morals and a willingness to commit any crime imaginable. But they're losers and they will lose.

if you spike news stories to please a fascist, you too are a fascist

as foretold by the prophesy

The Trump supporter who runs CBS news just killed a story about Trump’s favorite torture prison. Here’s why America has a liberal media bias problem.

The political commissar does not want the regime news to report on the president’s foreign gulag. that’s where we are.

It’s actually amazing how many frauds are on this list lol

Live look of all the Harper’s letter signatories:
