We have quite simply never seen corruption as massive and utterly out in the open by a US President and his family. There is no precedent for this level of public theft and self enrichment.

February 10: Trump purchases up to $5 million in shares of Axon Enterprises, which manufactures 90% of all tasers February 24: ICE opens a $220 million contract for tasers, requesting specifications that mirror Axon's top taser models

Fauci needs to sue this man into bankruptcy, if only to dissuade the other inveterate liars of this administration.

and this isn't just some random evil racist congressman. he's the majority whip, the third most powerful member of the house! this *is* the party.

Happy International Beatles Day to those who observe.

Two ICE agents tracked down a woman *inside a polling place* yesterday. Why? They demanded that she take down an Instagram post in which she named Jonathan Ross as the man who shot & killed Renee Good (after the Star Tribune identified Ross). www.syracuse.com/news/2026/06...

Hi! I'm looking to speak to anyone who is finding ways to resist/work around mandatory AI usage policies at work. Mostly games industry-related, but happy to speak to anyone adjacent as well! Published quotes can of course be anon if desired. DM me here or email at [email protected], thanks!

Hell. Yes.

The cost of the fencing is $250,000. The cost of added security is $25,000 per day. All to prevent something made up. These are the people that are worried a kid might get a free potato chip.

Musk says not a single person has died due to him axing USAID. Sadly, part of my job involves tracking aid spending. So here’s a thread with just some of the people who lost their lives because of USAID cuts

You're gonna want to read this. Gift link: wapo.st/4viLSnW

I actually think this bears repeating: Our Director of National Intelligence was just shown to *literally be taking secretive orders about what precisely to do and say in politics* from a scary cult leader in Hawaii And it wasn’t even front-page news How am I supposed to react to this?

A24 announces that they want to put storyboard artists out of work. That's what the headline should be written as. Becuase we should be honest about what these AI "tools" are trying to do, and who it is trying to circumvent. variety.com/2026/film/ne...

RIP early GW cover artist Emmanuel, noted for the original Fiend Folio and The Citadel of Chaos.

I keep seeing "all authors use AI, the real issue is they're being forced to be sneaky about it" headlines. Full stop No. This is a lie peddled for normalization. It's schoolyard-level pressure tactics "C'mon, all the cool kids are already doing it. We won't tell. It's fine. We're on your side."

Spent this perfect Father's Day afternoon playing an experimental musical composition in a sculpture garden with 25 other upright bassists. My wife, our kid, and a bunch of other folks strolled among the trees, taking in the bass tones and the lovely surroundings. Sometimes, life is pretty sweet.

The richest man owns X. The second and third richest men control Google. The fourth richest man owns The Washington Post. The seventh richest man owns Facebook, Instagram, and WhatsApp. And now the sixth richest could soon take over both Paramount and Warner Bros. See the problem here?

two small chairs in the boulevard so kids can watch this animatronic monarch butterfly moving its wings while landed on a flower sculpture in someone’s front yard in seward minneapolis is such a special place

article worth reading if you like going "well of COURSE" after each sentence

Elon Musk’s DOGE cut the federal government’s screwworm monitoring program, which cost $15 million. Now, the Trump administration is preparing to spend $1 billion to combat the screwworm outbreak. Never forget how destructive and downright stupid DOGE was.

What is even happening

Keep an eye out, Twin Cities.

Sitting members of Congress showing up on a techno-fascist billionaire's secret club call sheet is bad right?

France has joined Germany in cancelling their Palantir contracts, becoming the 2nd country in as many weeks to do so — the UK appears poised to follow suit AOC: “Immediately investigate Palantir — (Thiel’s) secretive data mining company that has weaponized information against immigrant communities”

Daveigh Chase 🤍 (1990-2026)

Trump appeared at the Libertarian National Convention in 2024 in front of a sign that said this, it was the convention's theme

They know this is completely bogus, they’re not fooling anyone. The point is to spread fear and cause suffering.

First charge is literally the same one they charged the Broadview 6 with. These people are going to walk either way, but they should ask for grand jury transcripts immediately.

There are multiple arrests of observers happening in the Twin Cities today. If you go out, please have your security settings on and seriously consider having a buddy with you

Heads up, Twin Cities…

Journalists have a duty to tell the public that the president and his aides are seriously considering suspending habeas corpus *when it is happening* rather than saving it for a book rollout over a year later

Took my kid to see HOT FUZZ tonight in a packed theatre and we both had a blast. We're huge SHAUN OF THE DEAD fans, but she had never seen HF, and I hadn't seen it in years. I'd forgotten how damn funny it was.

rfk coming out with the world's biggest straw

NEW: Videos show ICE agents defying Connecticut’s new mask ban during recent arrests. The agency says it “will not abide by” the ban. "Tell them. I dare you,” an agent said in one video. “Who’s going to arrest me?” My latest at @ctinsider.bsky.social — www.ctinsider.com/news/article... #nutmegsky

Looks like a rain delay on the sign?

This will end real fine.

WE DON’T NEED A FUCKING TREATMENT WE HAVE A VACCINE THAT IS 97% EFFECTIVE AND COULD ERADICATE THE DISEASE IF WE DIDN’T HAVE ANTIVAX GRIFTERS LEADING US 🤦🏻‍♂️🤦🏻‍♂️🤦🏻‍♂️ www.nytimes.com/2026/06/11/w...

Yeah, how could I *not* go see a whale-swallows-a-dude movie?

no one around the world will ever trust America again until we lock up the people responsible for this.

Mike Johnson just literally admitted this whole thing was vibes lol

Welp there’s no unseeing this

My kingdom for a movie theater that makes you hand over your phone before going in. Wanna scroll during the film? Go out to the lobby, retrieve it from its secure cubby, and go nuts. Wanna head back in? Throw that bad boy back in its little ol' nook and enjoy the rest of the show!

Dylan Fucking Alverson! This is how you do it, ladies, theydies, and gentlemen. Don't let the headline fool you, no one is getting rich here, just feeding A LOT of people.

Just a reminder- If you don’t have a streaming service and want to see newer releases without paying VOD prices, check your local library! So many of them have physical releases available for checkout! Checking them out that way also helps show budgetary committees that there is a need there!

Hahaha nope. Sorry, normies. We're genre freaks and it's our time.

My opponents are all communists. In unrelated news, my government will be taking ownership of the means of production.

i know no one cares, nothing matters, it’s all blasé to the median voter and pundit, but a sitting AG (even just acting) making these kinds of boldly partisan remarks would have been seen, in the past, as grounds for removal on a bipartisan basis

Congrats, EH! This looks awesome!
