Why do all these "punk" genres seem to forget that "punk" isn't a synonym for "alternative imaginings". Punk is about fighting back against the status quo in a system where oppression is normalized. And not just fighting back, but making some progress. Punk is fighting for a better tomorrow.

lots of people know Łink from what he did to promote alt text usage here. this tip about pretending you’re describing an image over the phone has been burned in my brain since i saw it

My dad found out his Navy pension is being cut by several hundred dollars a month. He already only gets just over $1000 a month to live on. He was also informed he'll have to start paying on the prescriptions he gets from the VA. I'm unsure of how he's going to survive.

Don't call it UBI, call it "license fees for personal data use."

Frankly, we should all be getting a universal basic income just for allowing corporations to harvest the data we slough off every day.

Bro they did it, the least cringey democrat meme I’ve ever seen

Fuck me, I don't know what I was expecting, I was thinking it might have been some scam, like an impersonator who'd block me the instant they posted or something like that. But no, these ghost replies I've been seeing recently are starving people begging for help banned before I could even see.

I just found out what these ghost replies were, and it's darker than I'd anticipated. Palestinians begging for their lives. This time I actually saw a reply was there to a post I'd made, but it wasn't in my notifications. Then it was gone. The reply counter remained showing someone had replied.

What is "The Big Company Couch"?

As the mod who tamed a big news site's notoriously annoying comment section that serially harassed many of the site's authors, it's 100 percent obvious that the problem here is the same problem I solved back then. A moderation team can't earn buy in from a community they're openly contemptuous of.

SCOOP — Pennsylvania prosecutors were alerted to possible voting irregularities by one of MAGA's leading voices against voter fraud. A long paper trail shows Jack Posobiec has been living in Maryland but voting using his parents' PA address for years. From @jsweetli.bsky.social, @slate.com + me:

"single-use plastic of the mind" had me GAGGED

NEW: Rashida Tlaib is leading a 19-member letter calling on Marco Rubio to protect the Global Sumud Flotilla—which is carrying 24 Americans—as it seeks to deliver aid to Palestinians starved by Israel. They also demand the Trump admin use its leverage to end Israel's blockade and genocide of Gaza.

Guy with an AI pfp: well, I think we just need to give the leopards a fair shot this time

I mean yes this is funny, but the fact that these unconstitutional stormtroopers are so directionless that they literally stand around waiting for random nonwhite delivery guys to bike past them is just pathetic. No mandate, no mission, no clue. Just racism.

Level 34 unlocked. A very merry cake day to me. 🥳

It's an objective fact that if you're running around arresting people based on the color of their skin, you're a piece of shit

With alt text because this made me cry 😭

4/ Borsook divided the tech ”libertarians” into two main types: the Ravers and the Gilders. The Ravers are the ones who go to Burning Man and project countercultural ideas. The Gilders are the Peter Thiel types, more overtly focused on money and power. But they are birds of a feather.
