I think it was @jonnelledge.bsky.social who made the astute point before the last GE that a radicalised right wing media was leading the Tories into hugely unpopular positions. It's going to be the same with Trump v the UK government. Badenoch and Farage are calling it totally wrong.

Per The Economist/YouGov, half of Americans support ABOLISHING ICE. Literally, "abolishing." yougov.com/en-us/articl...

"Abolish ICE" is, very literally, the moderate position

Ted Cruz says that 1) murders should be in jail 2) the violence against ICE is happening in Blue Cities. But Alex Pretti's murderers are Texans. And the SINGLE case of a real shooting targeting ICE happened in Texas.

Would like to see some funding go to researching new and innovative forms of humiliation.

[Cliff Claven voice] "You know, a selenelion is sometimes called a “horizontal eclipse” from the ancient Greek moon goddess Selen and sun god Helios, where one can see the eclipsed moon in the west and the risen sun in the east at the same time due to atmospheric refraction of both bodies."

"One sent Mr. Epstein’s sexual partners elsewhere for gonorrhea treatment so that when their cases were reported to public health authorities, they wouldn’t be tied to Mr. Epstein. Some doctors also shared patients’ private health information with him..."

I bet now you could start a company named "President Pedo" and be able to make it a success, and this would be the only time in history that pedophilia could be profitably referenced in commerce.

A lot of places are about to be bombed in a country far away and a good many people killed because Donald Trump cannot make anyone forget or ignore the accusations of what he did with young girls. That is now the foreign policy of the United States.

Remember: If you are a billionaire, a wealth tax and cap are for your *own protection.* The income tax rate at the end of a pitchfork is 100%.

"According to the…annual Harris Poll, for the 1st time, a majority of Americans believe billionaires are a threat to democracy. A remarkable 71% believe there should be a wealth tax. A majority believe there should be a cap on how much wealth a person can accumulate." www.nytimes.com/2025/12/14/o...

a reminder that Graham Platner is the grandson of the designer of the "Windows on the World" restaurant at the WTC, has considerable family money, and his main business is selling oysters to his mom's two restaurants. These people are fucking marks.

scrawny 18-year-old about to fall out of an army helicopter over tehran: this is so epic. this is totally sigma, right babe? AI e-girl operated by a balding intelligence officer in virginia: that's right baby, Iran is totally cringe

Identifying people who should die and then using that info to nuke a pre school is an iron clad use of AI tbh

35 stitches for a head wound, performed at home (post-flight!) on the dining room table is just straight up mob shit.

OPERATION EPSTEIN SURGE

"Anthropic is guilty not only of wildly exaggerating the capabilities of AI, and promoting dystopian fantasies of ‘AI doom’, but also quietly advocating the deeply misanthropic philosophy on which it was founded. www.spiked-online.com/2026/02/22/t...

Nothing is surprising about the US starting another war. Nothing is more dangerous to Earth and mankind at large than the United States and its complete and utter failure to curtail the worst excesses of humanity. The US oligarchy and its influence on global politics must end.

hey we're doing an operation called Based Epic Chad. lol. everybody will think this is awesome. we will never end up like Mussolini

"abolish ice" does in fact require defunding the police because they are the same system causing harm. www.washingtonpost.com/immigration/...

If you've been watching Love Is Blind for years and feeling like it's become more and more blatantly MAGA-coded—with increasingly misogynist men, you're not alone. Had to blog it out. www.wired.com/story/love-i...

I recently attended an event about the benefits of AI. The director of an academic institution that deals with books responded to my criticism by saying that he could no longer imagine working without AI. @sarahkendzior.bsky.social would have taken the wind out of his sails perfectly with that:

This has me crying in real life 😂😂😂 🦁

Private equity gambles with your life savings. Private credit lends your life savings to said gamblers, so they can make bigger, more ruinous bets. And the AI data center debt market is the biggest, most ruinous of them all. www.wheresyoured.at/hatersguide-pe/

This is brilliant.

Gavin Newsom sweating like old dynamite watching Labour's 'transphobia & bigotry' strategy eat shit tonight lol

Movies like this usually cost $150,000,000. We made this video for $7 in 2 hours. Hollywood is dead. [ATTACHMENT: The worst video you've ever seen in your life.]

This is bleak: Jes Staley, currently CEO of Barclays, reassuring Epstein that popular revolt against financial elites is unlikely because capitalism and pop culture have defanged social movements, leaving people more invested in consumption than justice.

hello cis people could you please give a shit

Just watched the new Scrubs and (SPOILER) good news, JD is going to come back to work at the hospital again with the old gang. The writers left us hanging until the very end of the episode, the scamps!

I don’t think people understand what’s this means: MEDICARE AND MEDICAID ARE BLOCKING ALL WHEELCHAIRS, WALKERS, CANES, INSULIN PUMPS, GLUCOSE MONITORS, CPAP MACHINES, NEBULIZERS, BEDS, CRUTCHES, COMODE CHAIRS, BED SORE PRESSURE PADS, CHAIR LIFTS, OXYGEN TANKS, BREATHING EQUIPMENT, to name a few.

Scrubs should have rebooted as a drama

They won't start with banning birth control. First they'll lie about it. Then dictate who can prescribe it, use it, fund it, in what forms, and for how long. Suddenly, your doctor won't call you back. I know this is what they'll do because it's what they're doing to transgender healthcare right now.

the naïveté of the California Ideology would be almost charming if they didn’t keep trying to invent bank runs and/or killer robots from scratch

"The Justice Department has withheld some Epstein files related to allegations that President Trump sexually abused a minor, an NPR investigation finds"

Yep! I'm typically an early adopter and really enjoy tech, odds are good I'd be really into "AI" tools if they weren't being pushed by the most reprehensible shitheads on the planet who's opening move was to steal my art and mock me for caring about it before moving on to killing a bunch of kids

In 1290, Edward I issued an edict expelling all Jews from England, becoming the first European state in history to do so. The law was issued on the ninth of Ab, just to be an extra asshole about it, and land and property were forfeited to the crown. judeo-christian, my ass

Literally

William Fichtner, the thinking man's David Paymer.

We all have a new ADHD mantra now and I love it.

At this point, we should just assume they’re lying. But by their own account the kid had no record. US citizen. At the very least, it looks like multiple policy violations — they surrounded the car, fired into a moving vehicle, killed him through the driver’s side window.

The headline does not convey how completely batshit this story is. The Archive Today (archive.ph etc) admin weaponized the site's captcha to attack a blogger who wrote about them and *altered archived screenshots* as part of the attack. arstechnica.com/tech-policy/...

the Orioles are the fifth major American pro sports team with an ownership group linked to the DHS network of migrant jails. the other four? Minnesota Timberwolves Sacramento Kings Atlanta Hawks Charlotte Hornets (all through Blue Owl Capital) all discovered on [eyeblack]. have you subscribed?

So why doesn't curling have co-ed teams? I can't think of a single reason to split the events by sex.

You love to see it

Uhhhhwtf

The reference to families is the extra touch that makes Trump a lowlife thug and Trump followers fucking trash.
