everyone is saying it’s because X has nazis and yes that is true but then how do you explain how well he’s doing on the ground in Maine?

[lips pressed so close to the mic that i completely blow it out] ITS A DISTRACTION

Why is this statement happening today?

the virgin nuance understander vs the chad everything's really simple actually

I thought it was neat when people brought dogs to outdoor restaurants during COVID, and then within 24 months all of a sudden people were bringing them in grocery stores and movie theaters and I am now on the side of Cruella De Ville.

not to even mention that there’s a concerted effort being made by this admin to prosecute “antifa” with the designation of anti-american activities as domestic terrorism in NSPM-7

me after my seasonal depression goes away:

these people just want someone to be angry at because they can’t cope with the ineptitude of their leaders and themselves

If there's one thing you do this week, make it watching Bob Fosse's masterpiece All That Jazz. Below, killed illustration soon to be tribute poster to one of the greatest ever to do it.

As @bentarnoff.com put it, they are now speedrunning two and a half centuries of political thought—constitutions? welfare states? basic income?—while repressing the fact that the obvious telos is the supercession of embodied labor both manual and intellectual.

some people you can recruit, other people you have to simply defeat. politics makes more sense when you accept this

Score one for team cowardice lmfaooooooooooooooo x.com/ryangrim/sta...

american politics is a spectacle and the dems refuse to put on a show. no one is saying they can stop everything but they have to appear to be doing more than just tweeting!

There are lots of people in the Democratic base absolutely itching to do something about this. Scoff at their ineffectiveness all you want, but look at the sheer numbers who turned out for No Kings! But they feel totally leaderless, which is paralyzing in the face of overwhelming horrors.

he *can* keep getting away with this

getting my ass beat by children to own the libs

here’s what the fall of human civilization has taught me about B2B sales

"This is a distraction" is just a lie. "They are taking your money and using it to commit criminal acts beyond our comprehension" is 100% true. I think we should tell the truth and not the lie. The latter also has the benefit of at least somewhat centering the issue of atrocities.

The goal of civilization as a technology, a tool, since its inception has been to civilize this barbaric quality, to strip out this base element and replace it with a new and better kind of human. These people reflect a hostile instinct against that enforcing of right angles on a rugged world.

Whether you believe we were created by divine will or the fluke of the turnings of a cosmos that has been slowly dying since its inception, the true power of mankind is to create a world in our minds and evoke it into being. These are people who cannot fathom that humanity, who lack it entirely.

everyone on here is distracted except for me, some random asshole in your replies

there’s a time for bigger picture discussions like this but that time probably isn’t when the president is threatening genocide

Remembering again Chuck Schumer posting a video calling Trump too much of a coward to go to war with Iran.

the lesson from today’s downtime isn’t that it was caused by vibe coding (bluesky went down all the time before Claude too), it’s that if you use AI you will no longer get the benefit of the doubt and everyone will mock you for laziness regardless of the cause

is the GOP's mistake that they...won? And got everything they ever wanted in the process? Is that what we're worried might happen to Democrats or progressives?

hope I die before we get a wave of nostalgia for this era of ai slop

i work closely with professional engineers and it will never not blow my mind that these guys can design entire mechanical systems but can’t figure out how not to hit “reply all” on department-wide emails

"This streamer is a Tankie" cool man anyway Trump and co. are waving nukes around

The GOP's "mistake" in embracing its often rude radical flank, which resulted in its catastrophic collapse - wait I'm hearing they have been the dominant political party for the past 20 years and currently control all three branches of government

good luck with that 👍

the electricians on my job think the artemis mission is staged

Nightmare. HRT made me hot, but not hot enough, so I still have to develop swag. This is bullshit. I wanna be so hot it makes up for total lack of charisma or personality.

sorry guys i’m the only one allowed to post today

They threw the servers in the pool to cool off

wow what a coincidence we just happened to build/expand a bunch of LNG export terminals in the 10 years leading up to this

t4t is so beautiful

News is getting too weird. Man needs to return to caves.

Easter is one of those “chump” holidays like Presidents Day or Pi Day. Actual holiday heads are on to Arbor Day. More throwback celebrations

happy easter

i thought the new harry potter series was releasing like next week and that's why it was generating all this press and commentary, but nope, not actually airing until christmas, we're trapped in discourse hell for the rest of the year

I think that as a narrative-consuming culture we have traded away sincerity and the ambition to better capture experience in favor of trope awareness and plot formalism in a way that brings back the worst of the sixteenth century. I think we all need to do better as readers, viewers, gamersss

I love succumbing to Iranian AI propaganda

Lunch sketch.

ketchup dogs are good
