“I am living with the deep pain of watching someone I once loved become the face of evil.” From July 17th: m.facebook.com/share/p/16yL...

Judge Diane Goodstein crossed the Trump administration last month. Yesterday, her home burned, her husband was injured and it's being investigated for arson. www.postandcourier.com/news/crime/s...

Anton Dostler, the Nazi who first and very unsuccessfully argued that he was just following orders and thus not responsible for his actions, moments before his execution by firing squad

This military should not be serving as a backdrop to this kind of speech.

I am consistently fascinated by the stark regional variations in vernacular. In Asia, they're called wild boar, in Arkansas, they're known as razorbacks, and in Chicago, feral hogs are commonly called ICE agents.

history teacher in 50 years: So in September, that’s when the president signed an executive order criminalizing anti-fascism and saying all resistance would be crushed student: oh so that’s when the whole country realized they were living under fascism teacher: haha what? oh no lol not at all. no.

People going "America was always fascist" or "it's been like this since the 1980s" or making related claims don't seem to realize it, but they're telling everyone that nothing different is happening, nothing worse than usual, so if you weren't up in arms about eg 2013, you shouldn't be now either.

banning Link is such a stupid fucking move like who do you think actually built your userbase

sidechat but guy ritchie has just been putting out banger after banger

The Republican platform is simple: they want to sexually abuse children, and they want you to pay for it.

A Texas megachurch pastor and GOP leader has been arrested for crimes against children. Not Robert Morris, a different one. Not Josiah Anthony, a different one. Not Luke Cunningham, a different one. Not Tony Evans, a different one. Not Scott Crenshaw, a different one. Not Steve Lawson, a different o

Robot personhood / rights is a sci-fi trope because it’s an obvious way to do a story about prejudice against other humans, but I wonder if it’s created a cultural expectation that this *has* to be a debate once you’ve invented robots you can talk to

i just can’t get over ICE going into the streets of the city i live in, throwing gas at citizens, invading people who live here. this is state sponsored terrorism being enacted on americans

I told my wife I love baseball and she is sobbing uncontrollably on the bed because what if you replace baseball with racism

If you like yelling about misuse of the passive voice, THIS IS IT.

I asked a Christian baker to write Charlie Kirk on a gay wedding cake and we've been staring at each other for 39 straight hours now

Hey everyone, @yusuketrade.bsky.social is impersonating a Princeton grad student and posting some vile right-wing garbage in their name, so please do the world a favor and report and block @yusuketrade.bsky.social

Asking “is the postal service profitable?” is a new thing If you visit a 1950s post office it looks like a Greek temple. They have statues of eagles. There’s a big mural of a flying woman holding a cornucopia. They didn’t whine “is the bronze bas-relief of Prosperity profitable?”

Straight to jail

When you drag a woman by the hair, beat her and force her to kiss your flag, that’s how you tell the world you are the Good Guys

I was sent this by a Georgian this morning. 2025 premiums vs 2026 premiums for someone making $65k a year. Republicans in Washington did this. This is what I'm fighting to stop. This is what’s at stake in this shutdown fight.

South Bay folks, close your windows and mask up. If you're driving, set air to recycle. The Chevron refinery in El Segundo just blew up. citizen.com/-OacL7_yVyF5...

hi it's me mr beast and today we're slouching towards bethlehem

"just upload a scanned image of your drivers license no big deal"

The mystery of medical diagnosis!

Weeks before his death, you say?

No, @thebookseller.com this is not the full list of books used to train Anthropic’s AI. It excludes many books (including mine) that were stolen and used but which do not meet the specific criteria of the settlement. Books not copyrighted in the US are excluded, so UK editions get nothing.

i love remakes

One thing that comes through awfully clearly in these ICE videos is how many of these goons gravitated toward the job because being able to assault people with impunity is a big thrill for them.

I am once again calling on state governors to mobilize their National Guards to escort congressmembers into ICE facilities so they can DO THEIR LAWFULLY ASSIGNED FEDERAL DUTIES

What the fuck do you mean I got a longer prison sentence than Diddy

These are going to be exclusively used to lie about Starbucks cashiers refusing to take them

Stasi. The American Stasi. I wish that weren't hyperbole.

ICE just gassed a group a civilians near the Rico Fresh supermarket intersection on Armitage in Chicago - bystanders say this was in response for being heckled from the street.

"I am Toby Huss"

I'm just leaving this open and playing audio in a separate browser tab. At some point MF Doom is going to start rapping over it.

You absolutely should not dismiss the AT Protocol technology that runs this place as boring nerd stuff, because that is the exact technology we are going to need to ensure that usable social media that isn’t controlled by Nazis continues to exist.

Kristi Noem's on the roof at Broadview surrounded by snipers and Kat is still out there demanding to see what horrific conditions are going on inside.

Hell yeah, James Gunn. #Peacemaker

You may have heard my arguments against the Electoral College before. Here’s a new one the Founders never anticipated: If the President is elected by popular vote, he probably wouldn’t selectively punish entire states for voting against him.

My fellow patriots join me in applauding Danica Patrick for her eloquent words and allow me to add English song word in America absolute top festivity belief in how it gains

This is apropos of a thread about what publications lose when they lose older culture writers and only have young ones. All I'll say about that is that learning about cultural history is a lifetime's work, and if you do this for a living, there's no shame in not knowing, only in not trying to learn.

amazing watching tradcath converts discover they are protestants.
