Working on an Obsidian wiki about my programming language (an algebraic effect language) and getting depressed because I don't know anyone who even knows what algebraic effects are.

ICE: "so we murdered another person in broad daylight with total impunity. in our defense we were scared in an abstract way"

i.c.e. and their accomplices in local law enforcement are shooting people in the head on suspicion of being undocumented because this is not a law enforcement operation, it is an ethnic cleansing operation

anyways, seeing how many democrats and media members tripped over themselves to take part in the graham hagiographies, on the day it finally happens we should probably be prepared for them to go hard on memorializing and praising trump

Trump is promoting a Michael Savage video calling for democratic socialism to be made a crime and its leaders deported. I’m noting this in case anyone has any doubt that Trump wants to rule as a dictator. We need to take this stuff seriously.

i know you’re looking for it. here she is, girls. here she is, world

I've said it before and I'll say it again now: Live your life in such a way that millions of people do not rightfully have reason to cheer your death.

please show respect for the dead body of someone who didn’t respect your alive body

I'm far past feeling the need to defend people who celebrate the deaths of ghouls. We live under overt fascism. The regime hunts people in the streets. We are talking about political actors so foul that no moral reconciliation is possible. They can only be defeated. Mourning them is a betrayal.

I'll specifically add my thoughts to this, so there's no confusion. Lindsey Graham was a terrible person who used his political power for evil. We should absolutely call that out. But don't be homophobic about it. We can criticize his hypocrisy without the punchline being, "Ha ha he was gay."

The Democratic Party's approval rating is in the toilet, and the main reason is voters see Dem leaders and prominent members acting like things are basically okay instead of fighting like there's an emergency. Slot "my friend Lindsey Graham, so funny, how great to work with him" comments into that.

When a politician dies we see a lot of hagiographies about them. If you mention they were a terrible person IRL, you get chastised. My feeling? If you don't want people to talk shit about you after you die, don't be shitty when you're alive.

I will not mourn someone who worked to make my life worse, and I will not respect anyone else's mourning of him. Fuck Lindsey Graham. The best thing he ever did for anyone was die, and if his death saddened you then you're telling me you wish he could have done more to hurt me. Fuck you too.

I know everyone’s making their jokes, but to be real: it’s an American sickness that the media and political class are praising someone who has spent last year calling for a genocide. Lindsay Graham was the worst of us. He wanted the blood of children to flow in the streets of Gaza and got his wish.

Good fucking morning we will outlive them

it rocks that Lindsey Graham lived to see the US lose a war with Iran and then immediately died lmao

big week for the Graham Reaper

RIP Lindsey Graham, longtime advocate of bombing the Islamic Republic of Japan

Lindsey Graham is dead?

No party campaigned on age verification. Nobody the US voted for this. Nobody the EU voted for this. Nobody the UK voted for this. Nobody in Australia voted for this. Some don't even know it's happening. Meta lobbied for this and got their way within a few years. Let this radicalize you.

Bluesky needs more Cursed Zillows

Never want to hear about this sack of shit again.

Does this mean that Illinois can have its own statewide click-to-cancel rule now that diarrhea man ended the federal one?

PLATNER SAYS HE’S DROPPING OUT of the Maine Senate race: “We believe that for the movement to continue, it can’t be me. And for that reason, we are suspending campaign operations,” he says in a video message tonight.

The Islamic Republic of Japan has invaded South Carerdddd!

Trump: "We had 11 missiles shot by the Islamic Republic of Japan" This is the President of America, folks. Can't make this. Dementia Don Dying on a global stage. Lord.

Took this photo a few days ago from a plane

NEW: Sen. Bernie Sanders: "I have spoken with Graham Platner about the best path forward for Maine. In light of these very serious allegations, I have recommended that he step aside."

Meta Glasses are like, a Cybertruck for your face.

when someone shows you their nazi tattoo, believe them

Having a dead guy in the senate feels like a metaphor for the whole institution

continue to think that planter’s support with the lib/left male pundit class was not *in spite of* his various transgressions, but because of them, a frankly pathetic attempt to reassert dem masculinity through a man whose violent career they believed represented working class authenticity

I’m so bitter about this Platner thing. “Oh Bluesky is an echo chamber” how you like our echo chamber now

The lesson a lot of people unable to learn: No one is ever JUST a racist or a misogynist or an antisemite etc.

platner was a test and a lot of people were proud to fail

boy they really thought they had something with “smoothgroins”

challenging to phrase this exactly right because it'd be in bad taste to use this as a gotcha against all his supporters, but the journalists who very explicitly framed Platner as a rejection of stuff like "HR Lady Politics" or (ugh) "smoothgroins" should take a long, hard, look in the mirror today

Why wasn’t the Nazi tattoo enough

"don't endorse a guy with a Nazi tattoo" is really not galaxy brain political strategy so much as it is common sense and/or decency

I just got one of the most poorly designed messages in a game ever.

Yesterday I saw a bunch of McPartments in a shopping center in the middle of car-dependent sprawl and it just seemed like a mockery of a walkable community.

If you trick a rube into saying "boor" he gets sent back to the 5th dimension where he belongs.

There's a simple fact that no one in US politics is allowed to acknowledge publicly: the demographics most likely to play the role of Real Americans in the elite imagination are the least likely to support the core American value of pluralism. The most American are the least American.

Bluesky is large enough to have lots of different opinions but small enough for people to attribute one opinion they saw there as The Only Bluesky Opinion.
