Tech entrepreneur’s secret club outed by F12

The differences between Weiss and Pelley are those of degree, not of kind. There are enough degrees to make the differences seem stark, but they are both creatures of the same corrupt system: seeking “balance” rather than truth. Was the protestor’s chest, bump representative? Of course not.

This deserves alt text:

If Allie Brosh got a few cents every time people say "all the things" or use her character from this strip w/o crediting her she'd be rich. hyperboleandahalf.blogspot.com/2010/06/this...

Y'all. Please remember the artists that drew these things when sending around memes. I feel for these artists who NEVER get credited for these (and some, nowadays, are even being accused of being AI!) Here's a few common ones I see (feel free to add others, I want this to be a living thread): 🧵

Ed Markey tears into Seth Moulton: "Massachusetts deserves better than a senator who scapegoats trans kids." The crowd goes fucking wild.

This is embarrassing

Economic op-ed writers hate it when you take future wellbeing into account. Sure retirement looks bleak, but what about your Q2 numbers?

so like lemme weigh in on this as someone who is more financially comfortable than many in my generational cohort: everything I have gained seems precarious and temporary because I know the people with real money will take it all from me the second they get an opportunity and no one will protect me.

Completely supported by the research & most social movements' experiences. One blind spot that suffuses contemporary arguments: human resources. Who is doing the work? Are there paid cadres? Church ladies/middle-aged women are overextended/have jobs now. www.laborpolitics.com/p/bouncy-cas...

ICE back at Delaney Hall, arriving in a bearcat followed by about 6 SUVs. Agents are wearing ballistic helmets, some with batons out holding a line as others behind remove a barricade. About two dozen agents in total.

"...on the night of May 24–25, 1856, in the Kansas Territory, United States... in reaction to the sacking of Lawrence by pro-slavery forces on May 21... John Brown and a band of abolitionist settlers... responded violently... abducted and killed five pro-slavery settlers."

🚨BREAKING: POWER OF THE PEOPLE🚨 Protesters outside Delaney Hall erupted after advocates said Martin Soto — a leader of the ICE prison hunger strike — will NOT be transferred following ACLU involvement with the U.S. Attorney’s Office. @jordanchariton.bsky.social LIVE ⬇️

We're 60 shirts away from getting our first bug mural of the fall funded. If you haven't already, get a shrimp shirt. Look cool as hell while supporting a project that's just as cool 😎 SquidFacts.net

If pro wrestling has taught me anything, it’s how to spot spray tan. You would not see all those blemishes under spray tan.

BREAKING: Minnesota has INDICTED ICE officer Christian Castro in the non-fatal shooting of Julio Cesar Sosa-Celis. 4 counts of assault & 1 count of lying.

It’s perfectly ok to impeach him for his threats to Iran instead of his economic manipulations

Happy #TransDayOfVisibility to all my Trans followers. 🏳️‍⚧️ You are a huge part of our LGBTQ+ community, and you are loved! 💕 #TransRightsAreHumanRights

I've been saying.

Anarchist literature is now evidence of terrorism, according to the government. As is wearing black at a protest, carrying a first aid kit, or using Signal. Horrifying stuff is happening, it's happening quickly, and not nearly enough people are paying attention to it.

A reminder to authors: If your book was among the many titles pirated by Anthropic to train their AI, make sure to file your claim by March 30th. Your publisher will be filing, but my publishers tell me that the only way to *ensure* payment is by submitting your own valid claim. #AcademicSky 🧵1/n

A striking feature of Trump and his team is: they somehow imagine a world in which they are the only actors, only ones with power, and whether it's Tehran or Minneapolis are surprised when it turns out others do. There are many kinds of power and many nations with power.

This is from 1975.

Bandcamp Friday is my excuse to add to my long-neglected music collection every 3 months. Can I afford to shell out for art? Not really. But I don’t function well without music and streaming is unsustainable.

Yeah, not a great sign that they're just going to be experimenting on trans inmates like this and it's not a big story.

Thinking about this quote from Persepolis creator Marjane Satrapi again.

As states debate the future of the Colorado River, tribes are being left out. 22 tribes have rights to 25% of the basin’s annual water! But those tribes can’t access their water because the federal government doesn’t maintain the infrastructure.

Nature is (outside the human-visual spectrum) lit!

Feel like the base misunderstanding in politics right now is the haughty dipshits that control all the discourse don’t realize how mad people are

NEW: A masked federal agent in a convenience store parking lot in the northern Twin Cities suburb of Coon Rapids told legal observers that Minnesota’s status as a blue state is linked with the removal of residents, on a video provided to Unicorn Riot. unicornriot.ninja/2026/federal...

INSPIRING: Students walk out of a high school in DEEP RED Texas in protest of ICE. "They k*ll people and get no punishment at all… ICE IS A TERRIBLE THING" Share this widely to support the young generation!

"What can Democrats actually do?" - Vote against funding for ICE and DHS - State that any ICE officers who commit crimes under Trump will be prosecuted to the full extent of the law - Encourage cities and states to refuse to cooperate with ICE - Explain ICE is part of Trump's tyranny

My co-worker shared this, in prep for tomorrow. And I'll add in--your phone battery will drain so fast. So fast. Bring an extra charger, or just be ok with being phone-less.

To understand the ways that the economy has shifted and how our strike tactics must also shift, we compare the last two general strikes that took place in the US—both of which, conveniently, occurred in Oakland, California—in 1946 and 2011. The 2011 strike is especially instructive.

Have seen many variations of this & broadly agree—but the part that struck me in the moment wasn’t “this is a microcosm for how America sucks” — it was “this is a microcosm for trying to behave democratically & respectfully of one another in a complex, evolving situation with things we can't know.”
