"Green water services" has "Fraud guarantee" vibes

The US people looking at the reflecting pool after Greenwater Service is done.

After federal agents shot Alex Pretti in Minneapolis, a New Yorker sent ICE's director an email in January comparing him to a Nazi. This week, DHS agents stalked him across New York. His home. A hotel. They gave his wife a letter warning of criminal prosecution. www.syracuse.com/news/2026/06...

i don't have the first idea about the validity of the claims here but i am consulting religious texts to see if there are any patron saints for class action lawsuits i can pray to

Throwing a party, no one shows up, the pool is scummed over, and a guy is jacking off in the corner. This is how the American Empire SHOULD end. It’s fitting.

While there are a ton of nonsensical names coming out of Chinese companies... I'm actually wondering if this one is slightly less crazy, since "pooboo" is effectively "waterfall" in Mandarin, so perhaps they were trying to name the elliptical after "waterfall."

Folks, they ask Mamdani CONSTANTLY about Israel in large part because he's a Muslim. That's it.

I love techbro culture, where one of them figures out how to market hogshit, dozens of other weirdos throw the GDP of several nations at marketing identical hogshit, and then as soon as all prospective buyers realize they're being sold hogshit it falls apart, rinse and repeat

guys, please... don't do this. curtis sliwa is a right-wing crank who founded a volunteer cop patrol that clashed with george floyd protestors, arrested people for looking like undocumented immigrants and is a back the blue type. no cops at pride, it's not hard.

Wow Jeff are you telling me that you don't run Amazon as a not-for-profit governmental service to benefit people? What a great and absolutely not at all biased comparison! Your intellect is towering. It's towering so high it might topple over.

also de Blasio froze the rent three times! Mamdani has pushed it up to a two-year freeze, but the main thing here is also that he's very good at *taking credit for doing things.* This is praise, not criticism! It's extremely important for politicians to do this.

This narrative during Pride month was absolutely intentional. The corporate media is fully in for fascism and desperate for you to agree.

Ceasefire strained by non cessation of fire.

Pretty good summary of the times we live in that politicians no longer even bother to pretend our parliaments are anything other than "aristocracy with extra steps". There should not be real votes, because the peasantry does not get a say over who their Lord is! That was just to make us shut up.

The defining reality of the Democratic Party is that they’re mostly careerist Buttigieg types. It does in fact make them apoplectic when someone earns a job that they expected themselves or their chosen person to coast into. It’s why they never have consistent politics or principles. Career first

this is basically the consternation people had with that old guy with cancer getting a committee chair spot over AOC, who then went on to die of cancer while in office

The response to this tiny video for a city council race we have no connection to is proof — even more than the national fascination with New York elections — of how hungry the people are to believe that ANY elected official anywhere is truly fighting to make people’s lives materially better.

I don't have a problem with having both moderates and progressive Democrats in Congress. I do have a problem when people collapse into a pile of wet noodles around fascism, and yet suddenly know how to pull every trick in the book to stop progressives.

Anyway, this is your reminder that the Democratic Party did not win marriage equality. The tireless work of activists did.

Anyway, why point this out? 1. They've always blamed the left for losses. It's been going on forever. 2. Don't let it stop you.

I just want to put this "fun" blast from the past here--an article in late 2004 in which Democrats can be seen blaming gay marriage activists for losing John Kerry the election by bringing lawsuits to enforce marriage equality. This article was not the only one.

It is more acceptable in elite intellectual circles to be a Nazi race scientist than it is to think it is acceptable to judge people morally for being Nazi race scientists.

Yet another reminder that, unlike a lot of people, Richard Hanania is a known and outed Nazi

They were never going to stop at TRANS people.

The LGB without the T PickMe crowd has been real quiet about that one. TL;DR: MAGA bitch made a false report against Pete Buttigieg saying he and his husband were violent towards their kids. They were removed from their custody for 24 hours and his 4 Y.O. kids were subjected to being questioned.

STOP FUCKING USING QUEER PEOPLE AS A SHIELD TO JUSTIFY GENOCIDE FOR FUCK'S SAKE!

It's always "Israel tests ceasefire by launching missiles at hospitals" and not "ceasefire ended after Israel double-tapped a preschool"

Centrists are organizing harder against the left than they ever imagined organizing against Trump.

I think it is silly to pretend that the Democratic Party's leadership is not clearly far to the right of their base on some key issues which have demonstrated themselves to be of a moral valence in recent months and years, sorry.

The world over, no one can keep us down.

Western media will be like "Israel explores limits of latest ceasefire"

Steve Jobs predicted cities would be designed around this device, which was "as big a deal as the PC." Jeff Bezos called it "one of the most famous and anticipated product introductions of all time." don't let our tech lords fool you into believing they can predict the future.

Tens of thousands celebrated Budapest Pride, the first since Viktor Orbán’s ousting.

PSA: With the Steam Next Fest ending, most of the demos are still going to be available, just harder to find. SteamDB lets you easily filter stuff with demos. And if you've got a pile of stuff wishlisted, you can see everything in there that has a demo if you give it API access. steamdb.info

The venn diagram for 'Folks who are really into dinosaurs' and 'Folks who are really into Dwarf Fortress' might not be a perfect circle, but it's close enough.

It's back up and running!

No game - no matter how well tested - survives the trial by fire that is 'thousands of weird nerds hitting buttons at random'.

Tell me again how damaging MeToo was to men's careers.

Listen. I am so sorry to say this. That is a hilarious line.

The Reflecting Pond is a national monument, so the fact that nobody is allowed around it because the President is embarrassed by the botch job he did on it, is like failed dictatorship shit. This is the stuff we accuse North Korea of.

I really cannot stand people blaming trans folks for what was a massive organising and mobilisation effort from the religious fundamentalist crowd, like here's reporting on the FRC's 5 point plan from back in 2016, there's no excuse to be this oblivious about the thing they said they were doing!

NGL I’d love a piece if they’re just getting thrown out. More important it would be good to have samples for analysis to make predictions about biofilm formation.

We were super proud to be able to host this account of the citizen response to the Belfast pogrom by Lee Hurley. Please give it a listen.

i love liberty* *living in a city that resembles a prison camp

she blocked me for this btw

WANT TO SNORFLE THE MURDERCAT (🔊 up)

Ya know, I wish mainstream movies were as queer as right-wing media scream that it is.

I was a lifelong liberal Democrat. Then I learned that Kat Abughazaleh spent 12 bucks on a basket of fast food shrimp.

Looks like Pyongyang
