If I was a tutoring company and I wanted to convince you that I could teach your kids maths, I would probably not have an advert that said “3=2” on it! That’s just me though.

A message from Liam Óg....

True Evil walks the Earth, and runs for school board.

You cannot possibly make me give a shit about a "Spaceballs 2"

No one has stated it outright but my understanding is that they won't sign onto a framework that calls only for a demilitarized State of Palestine. Tlaib of course is not a two-stater at any rate.

Most Palestinians regard recognition as symbolic at best and a distraction at worst while policies such as unconditional and unmitigated arms transfers to Israel and no restrictions on trade continue. I think most of the Squad is in concurrence with this.

dog, i fucking hate the Liberty Mutual guy.

"I have never seen an autistic 70 year old man" this idiot has never watched a single minute of PBS

i think this picture, from a public promo stream for a video games starring one of the most popular comic book characters of all time owned by the disney corporation, should be used on every single story about storefronts taking down lgbt content

The problem with Thatcherism is eventually you—the State—not only run out of money, but the means or even the vision of how to generate it, and you wake up one day, and all that money, and power, and sovereignty, is in the hands of a deterritorialised capitalist force that you have no control over.

Pretty fucked that they had to split the right wing into flavors to get it all to fit in the chart

One might argue this is at least as important as Jimmy Kimmel's indefinite suspension--and it's not new, just getting worse.

"Charlie Kirk has no amendments" I know there's a lot going on but we really need to remedy this trend of public figures speaking like semiliterate babies

One thing I'll say about DC not only canceling Red Hood, but recalling the first issue and refunding stores for buying it, is that you can still get Neil Gaiman's work through them. They still work with Otto Schmidt. Eddie Berganza worked there for years AFTER the formation of a policy that no women

I am just going to keep posting that the TX governor recently pardoned a political murderer. The dude texted "I'm going to shoot protestors", then went and shot a Black Lives Matter protester. He was convicted in a jury trial. Hard to find a more blatant example of celebrating political violence.

We complain about violent rhetoric on the left, yet here we see representative Nancy Mace calling out a hit on Jesus Christ Himself

The case for letting people set their accounts to private on bsky has always been a big one, but especially lately with the witchhunts going on. We need to be able to lock down and moderate who is following us. We need to be able to stop people from following us and soft block or remove followers.

few people know this, but the shooter in the charlie kirk case actually knew and associated with several cis people. now i'm a responsible journalist so i won't say if we should have a nationwide pogrom.

i love to see folks bring their Yelp Mindset into a house of god

i think possibly the most embarrassing thing about me is i was president of the debate club in high school and that experience really informed my views on people like Kirk and Ted Cruz and the pod save guys. I think debate club is really harmful actually, it basically straight up teaches amorality

sleep is one of the most important things that can happen in pajamas

theres millions of right wing dudes who want to debate college kids online for money. it's the only job left in america

American hegemony somehow fails to properly export basic material realities like "peanut butter" and "mexican food." So I don't have high hopes for any sort of Matrix or Martian habitat or cryogenics or other such alien zoo. You can't translate everything.

Seems like Erin Fogg (@criminalerin.bsky.social) got suspended within 10 minutes of posting this?

If the shooter had killed a leftist podcaster, he would have a multi million dollar Go Fund Me to cover his legal fees tomorrow, and an interview lined up with Charlie Kirk.

ope, got a nastygram from bluesky for… this:

Someone shot up my kid's school today, and our governor is paying tribute to a guy who thought that is an acceptable price to pay for having the Second Amendment. Jared Polis has failed Colorado.

it's not precisely sacrilege, but libs' refusal to read the Very Obvious Signs that Kirk made his own coffin to lie in replicate the epistemic sin that necessitated the construct of "sacrilege" in the first place

i expected a certain degree of performative groveling from mainstream libs, just as a matter of convention, but this is far sicker. Klein's no mere coward or idiot- he's a full-on fascist sympathizer, afraid only of being held accountable for his vile desires.

the best evidence that the shooter was a right-winger is that the shot actually hit and then they got away

Three high schoolers, who likely didn't make a career out of enabling and encouraging fascism, were shot in Colorado today.

if charlie kirk didn't get shot the right wing would be equally and as consequentially as mad about a tv commercial or restaurant logo or something else, they're gonna do what they're gonna do regardless

American Fascism is a fully self-escalating machine. The smallness we inflict on ourselves for fear of inspiring further escalation is a classic abuse dynamic, one we're better rid of as soon as possible.

I think it says a lot about Joe Biden that this would have been received as a conniving power play rather than hard but honest advice from a trusted partner

i can't lie, i really thought that silhouette was supposed to be Sexy E.T.

i don't oppose traffic cameras on panopticon grounds. speed and red light cameras both encourage prosocial behavior without the intervening dubious discretion of the police. to the extent that the cameras are sited in a discriminatory way, that is a *very important* but different issue.

There's an inherent tension on display here. The idea seems to be that anti-Zionism is an ipso facto antisemitic ideology due to the majoritarian sentiment of Jewish Americans but Zionism can't possibly be anti-Muslim or anti-Arab even if the majority of Muslims and Arabs think so. Why?

The Pro Family Forum’s early 80s Satanic Panic pamphlet "Dungeons and Dragons: Only a Game?” has it all: - a great cover - a description of D&D guaranteed to entice 14 year olds - a list of other, “more sophisticated and cruel" fantasy TTRPGs to try

you seriously haven't heard?? someone called in a wellness check on Pigpen and apparently his parents had been dead so long they were just bare skeletons. everybody's talking about it

Reddit comment sections can be soul crushing for indie devs and designers. Imagine the number of amazing TTRPGs that never saw the light of day because of mean comments like these.

I've got 4 Ennies! Let me put them to work...FOR YOU! I'm also going to start doing Pokémon and Magic proxies soon!

man he was inciting people to beat the shit out of trans women. fuck your "free speech" bullshit, he wanted people to kill me and my friends. shame on @khanna.house.gov

It also betrays a view of trans rights as a "nice to have" issue in the way that it portrays those demanding trans rights as spoiled children who won't play if they don't get their way rather than a population desperately trying to survive in a world increasingly hostile to them from all sides

I hope you understand that if you show up at a hospital with an infection no one has ever seen before that the US had somewhere you could call. That place would answer, offer testing you can’t get anywhere else and come visit you to solve if necessary.

there's something so tragic about a barbecue place with good sides and bad meat. it shouldn't be like this. they should be allowed to make a restaurant that's just sides without having to hear the pit masters make fun of them. nobody should have to live a lie.

The bit where Richard Dreyfus insists he's going to go into the new-fangled shark cage, and Quint just smiles and hits him with "farewell & adieu to you fair Spanish ladies" is unlike anything you get to see today. A great joke, a strong character moment for both men, and it's given room to breathe.

film school should just be people strapped to the Clockwork Orange chair, forced to watch Jaws over and over and over until they understand how a real movie works
