Given that the whole point is to keep escalating the violence, this is the most effective form of protest. It undermines their narrative of a "violent mob", and every time they try to escalate, they'll just look goofy as hell beating a bunch of inflatable animals.

Like I know there are edgelord leftists out there who look down their noses at shit like No Kings but sorry you guys, the more mass protest looks fun and family-friendly, the bigger it gets and the better its chances of being broadly effective

I really do think that Taylor saw Sabrina Carpenter and Chapell Roan, realized people like songs that talk about sex in an explicit but light-hearted way, and then made the biggest series of miscalculations anyone has ever made

Honestly did not expect to see Shane Gillis to take a more principled stance than Bill Burr on performing for journalist butchers, but here we are.

It wouldn't be Tokyo without a little rain.

Spotify went down and my workday immediately got WAY worse.

Without exception, the most beautiful women I have ever known have all been massive fans of Portishead.

"Then they came for the trade unionists, and I did not speak out—because I was not a trade unionist."

When the scholars warned, they ignored. When the historians warned, they denied. When the economists warned, they argued. When the politicians warned, they attacked. When the former staffers warned, they condemned.

You know you’re living in a fascist society when you’re constantly going over in your head the reasons why *you’re* safe.

Democrats couldn't figure out how to convey that the economy was doing well to people who measure the economy in the cost of goods and services, so people instead voted for Trump, who is now about to crash the economy by skyrocketing the cost of goods and services.

I watched the yuppie boomer in front of me order food, tip nothing, and then put her phone call on speakerphone full blast in the restaurant. Checked the skies for the meteor, still nothing.

really can't understate the value of dissociating life's fucked, everything sucks, but the way these bird flit through life give me a spiral-eyed zen

Why does every UI update have to look dumber and dumber? I don't want bubble icons and saccharine animated graphics. At least provide the option to revert display back to something more utilitarian. @samsungmobileus.bsky.social

I'm done being polite.

I can’t help but feel port in Seattle being a ghost town devoid of shipping needs a bit more attention in Alaska. That’s where all our stuff comes from guys. Including a lot of our food and med supplies.

I'm almost positive that gas prices now are higher than they ever were when those crybaby idiots were posting I Did That stickers on all the gas pumps.

dashcam footage of the Pel'Meni wreck

we're all trying to find the guy who did this to Pel'Meni

what about book clubs but for music albums

Here's the video of the Pel'Meni wreck. I'm gonna guess DUI.

Pel'Meni got wrecked last night.

Economic Silver Lining: a TON of great shit will be going up for CHEAP on Craigslist this year. It'll start with music gear, but we'll be at RVs and motorcycles by year's end.

Boomers after 40 years of watching insatiable corporate appetites cost us every social service and public institution while our taxes subsidize corporate welfare and bail them out every time they crash the economy: "I just think that America should be run more like a business."

hell yeah anchorage ✊

and to think that Obama could've just said fuck the courts, free healthcare Biden could've said fuck the courts, student loan forgiveness but all we get is Trump saying fuck the courts, extrajudicial foreign death camps without evidence or due process and "homegrown" U.S. CITIZENS are next

China just halted Boeing deliveries. This isn’t just a slap to Boeing, it’s a geopolitical backhand to the US aerospace industry. Boeing’s been struggling with production fuckups and now gets caught in the middle of a tech and trade war that’s turning into a high-stakes pissing match.

what if we made it fun tho

Stand By Me came out in 1986 and was about life in 1959. If it came out today, it'd be about life in 1998. So even if they still went to hunt down a dead body, there'd likely be ska on the soundtrack.

It will never not amaze me that earlier Alaskan statesmen gift wrapped wealth for future generations who then did nothing but fumble the bag ever since. alaskabeacon.com/2025/04/11/a...

77 million Americans voted for this monstrosity. I will never get over it.

What exactly is the difference between religion and superstition?

“This is not what I voted for.” Not respectfully, yes the fuck it is. You don’t get to play the victim simply because you lack a basic understanding of economics, human empathy, and pattern recognition skills.

1/2 Your jobs aren’t coming back. Tariffs will only squeeze small businesses, while mega-corporations will continue to dominate, shifting to full automation with AI and robotics. This will flood the labor market, and people will be forced to work for less as competition increases.

If you think this can’t happen, remember that of the 125,000 Japanese Americans who were interned during WWII for years without charge or trial, two-thirds were U.S. citizens. Including me.

idk I just wonder what kind of president the other candidate would've been with her double major in poli-sci and economics and subsequent law degree

And wouldn't you know it, this disastrous tariff plan was also laid out in Project 2025. Chapter 26.

It is 2002. I am 18 years old. We are in a once-in-a-generation economic crisis. It is 2008. I am 24 years old. We are in a once-in-a-generation economic crisis. It is 2020. I am 36 years old. We are in a once-in-a-generation economic crisis. It is 2025. I am 41 years old. We are in a—

Cory Booker has taken the Senate floor and plans to filibuster as long as he’s physically able to protest the complete disregard for the rule of law by Trump and Musk. Watch here: www.c-span.org/event/us-sen...

If George Soros had given the DNC $270 million, if he had traveled to Wisconsin to give $20 million to the state supreme court race, if he had bribed voters anywhere form $20 to $1 million each, conservatives would be literally up in arms. Something tells me it's never been about the billionaires.

Since the election, I've referred to certain masses as the Measurably Dumbest- as in, democracy relies on an informed populace, and America is the measurably dumbest it's ever been. Unable to be reached by facts. Unquestioning loyalty. Hostile to critical analysis. Then I came across this quote.

I don't care what side of the Israel-Palestine conflict your sympathies lie on, snatching up people with a valid student visa for the crime of writing an OpEd is naked fascism and if you don't oppose this you are a threat to this country's most basic values
