If you don't have time to read the full book Bullshit Jobs, here is a super short clip about Bullshit Jobs giving the basics.

The Spanish Navy said Wednesday it is sending the warship Furor to protect the Gaza-bound Global Sumud Flotilla after activists said drones had attacked their boats near Greece. This comes after Italy earlier committed to sending navy vessels to escort the flotilla.

The most enraging example of this was what the Dems did the day Roe was overturned. From my book THE LAST AMERICAN ROAD TRIP:

"Democratic leaders fear mass opposition to Trump above all else because they understand that such movements inevitably challenge the entire capitalist system that both parties represent. They are terrified that anything they do might legitimize and contribute to growing social unrest."

Happy to announce that my poem "Perish and Live Forever," which first appeared in MEXICANS ON THE MOON, has just won the @sfpoetry.bsky.social 's Dwarf Star Award for poetry. This award is for best micro poem of 10 lines or less. Many thanks to members who voted. It is a big honor. Much love!

@democrats.org @schumer.senate.gov @hakeem-jeffries.bsky.social If you're not going to listen from the "inside" I don't know what to tell you. Pritzker isn't the canary - he's the last-ditch effort to stop y'all from going over the cliff into irrelevancy. Because this is how the COUNTRY sees you.

NOW will you believe the Dems are complicit?? NOW, after they voted YES for a day to honor a violent Nazi when NO such day was even OFFERED for the actual LAWMAKERS shot & killed?? NOW will you wake up from the BLUE MAGA cult??

The new astronauts at NASA White folks are so excited but won’t understand why everyone else is giving a side eye

If a man is a good enough liar, he'll convince you that he's rich. If a man is rich enough, you stop questioning why he needs to borrow money.

just saying: it's possible that "I'm gonna dramatically constrict my state capacity while plotting dramatic imperial expansion, and expanding my set of internal enemies while alienating most of my foreign allies" is the beginning of a world-historical masterstroke. but also possible that it isn't

To be clear: this entire “we’ve got to run more pro-lifers” insanity is because literally a week ago polling showed that Democrats would prefer politicians like AOC and Mamdani over Jefferies and Schumer by, let me emphasize this, a 20 point fucking margin. www.politico.com/news/2025/09...

If America doesn't want even more tax incentives for billionaires and trans people turned into paving stones then why is Michael Bloomberg paying me to say it does. Checkmate, voter

Good morning Bluesky !

Spent yesterday packing up bundles of red cards to go out in orders. 💪 Learn more or print them here: www.ilrc.org/red-cards-ta... Moreover, ICE must be destroyed.

This is the exact contrast between idealism and materialism. Go to a rural town and give them a new medical clinic, new schools, new stores, and build up enough local industry that everyone there can make a good living, they'll reward you with -- among many other things -- their vote.

New from me: There's a lot of misinformation around the reasons I was fired from WaPo. Here's the official termination letter I got sent by Washington Post. Read and judge for yourself. open.substack.com/pub/karenatt...

This is, not even metaphorically, terrorism. Israel just did a literal terrorist attack on Yemen.

While I don’t think niggas need to be on the front lines, how long are we supposed to wait on white people to get a clue? Like how are the people that got us into this mess and made sure NO ONE could clean it up, gonna get us out?

They just tear-gassed us. They tried to run us over in a van holding a peaceful protester. They shot us with pepper balls. They dragged another protester into the facility.

people will be like "It's immoral to hate me for expressing my political beliefs" and their political beleifs will be "the emancipation proclamation was a mistake"

Reading this on loop today.

Rep. Rashida Tlaib is a badass and I'm glad she's there. "The Israeli government is committing a genocide and today, I submitted two reports into the Congressional Record. I also submitted the names of every Palestinian killed during this genocide." @reprashida.govpeeps.us

Reskeet with your mental state

Jarvis: I hate to say this to my friends here at CNN, mass media is dying, so they're taking the last of these vestiges of institutions that matter and they're trying to turn them into propaganda organs under threat from the head of the FCC

Sorry soc Dems and liberals you will be called a communist and silenced anyway. You might as well just be a communist

Do not put your name on a website to register for a rally in this political climate. What the fuck's wrong with y'all. Are there any people of color that work at this org who might knock some sense into your peach colored heads.

Let's all to take a deep breath & understand that we have reached the phase in fascism where if they want to declare you a criminal, you are a criminal. You can not magically avoid it, or do exactly the right thing to stay off the list. Fascism must always have enemies, and one day you will be one.

it’s revolutionary to find joy & connection. that’s worth celebrating

Any semblance of civilization ended in the U.S on June 16, 2015 when the alien in human guise rode down its escalator.
