we have been way too tolerant of cowards: we should be demanding that far more people in power who claim to be against the murderous evil of MAGA meet the standard currently being demonstrated by Jerome Fucking Powell

The SPEAKER implies. The LISTENER infers. The DUDE abides.

Absolute stone cold zero #drabble first draft: 112 words. I can work with this.

"organized gangs of wine moms us[ing] Antifa tactics" should be a genre this could be the next heated rivalry

FOX: Where’s the protest against the regime that's killing people in the street right now? Trent: They are doing those today. It’s called the ICE protests FOX: Are they talking about Iran at the ICE protests? Trent: No, I think they are talking about the regime that is shooting people in the face

Any film can be improved with the addition of stop-motion skeletons.

My second biggest fear is that Democrats take back power and believe they can ignore these problems into normalcy

People always say "my cat is weird" as if that isn't like saying "my water is wet".

BREAKING: Staggering scenes as brave Iranians stand up to their illegitimate government in Tehran... um, hang on, I'm being told this is actually Minneapolis. Forget I said anything...

This seems like something you’d be sentenced to…like for a crime. Not something you’d ever want. 😬

“The murdering will continue until you stop calling us murderers.”

so fucking tired of people saying AI "democratizes" creative skills, it's fucking privatizing it you dumb fuck, they're stealing your creativity from you and selling it back to you at a premium the ability to draw and write and sing and fucking whatever else came free with your fucking humanity

if he excommunicates Vance I really am gonna have to donate money to my high school

*posting on twitter* oh ho, I’ve made a wry observation. Better make sure a bunch of pedophiles see it

While I appreciate the desire to defund ICE and believe it should be done, there's almost no way it happens with the current layout of the legislature. Small wins lead to big wins.

the most telling thing I’ve seen all week is the Daily Show montage of MAGA mouthpieces pretending to mourn Renée Good’s death before saying she got what she deserved

if you're looking for a non-appropriative alternative: "may their memory be a revolution" started in the Orthodox Jewish community for victims of domestic violence, but it was suggested by the head of the organization that came up with it for George Floyd, so I think it's ok to use more broadly

EVERYONE DO THIS SURVEY MAKE DISCORD PANIC AND REGRET AND REVERSE COURSE DROWN THEM IN YOUR HATRED FOR GENAI

My column from Monday. The Alabama lieutenant governor is effectively powerless, which forces candidates for that office to run on fantasies of what they can do. But that’s reflective of a broader political culture where GOP politicians seemingly campaign in a right-wing hallucination of Alabama.

the daily mantra forced on us all: "well, *that's* obviously stupid"

…Probably the least vague vagueskeet ever… but just a thought. Rarely has a writer’s famous thesis been proven so true, in so brief a series of images: “Men are afraid women will laugh at them. Women are afraid men will kill them.”

Discord wants to know how you feel about AI. Go tell them: discord.sjc1.qualtrics.com/jfe/form/SV_...

The slogan of this decade is "You Know Why."

The thing about fragile masculinity and all the things marketed to those susceptible to it is that there far cheaper ways to be all alone at the end of the evening, masturbating into a sock, so why not just save your money

The everyday courage of normal people is breathtaking

this has to be the stupidest timeline that has ever existed in the universe

We've already go this. It's called Grape Nuts.

Interspecies play and cooperation has always fascinated me.

My anger at having to stand outside my kid’s school for two hours to ensure none of their classmates, parents, or teachers get kidnapped by my own government is only slightly tempered by the amazing outpouring of support from other parents and especially neighbors who stand against this bullshit.

The rage that has to exist in the average Minnesotan to watch someone stuck on an icy hill and STAND BY AND TAUNT THEM

What was your #childhoodcinema ? The Family Theater. Free Saturday matinees for the kids, saw Superman: The Movie three times there. Popcorn and sticky floors. Had a lava lamp behind the concessions counter. Years later I bought one as a reminder. They tore it down and put up a jail.

one nice thing about having no interest in any of this crap is that I don't have to worry about my home getting bricked

Amanda Gorman wrote this poem for Renee Good and that’s it for me tonight.

It really do recommend making your shitty day the problem of your shitty senator's voicemail every night, it doesn't have to be a chore. It is a actually cathartic

Sunrise, sunset.

Authoritarians want you to despair, they want you to give up Trump is powerful, but only because a lot of people gave him that power. Giving up in advance is one of the worst things you can do.

that's my secret, japanese amusement park, I'm always screaming inside my heart

Timberwolves hold a moment of silence for Renee Nicole Good

Five words that should be canon in this awful moment in US history: Compliance will not save you.

As a kid who grew up in an emotionally abusive environment, Star Trek was able to model for me the way people were supposed to talk to each other, disagree with each other, and love each other. I see how Stranger Things can be that for a new generation, and that makes me happy.

capybara reading a good book

Shout-out to everyone who's tired as fuck of only seeing the first four lines of this poem shared around.
