one day you walked out of Blockbuster for the very last time and you never even knew it

Race communism is when lightning McQueen pushed the blue guy over the finish line rather than winning himself

Why, tho.

a “ceasefire” that lasted 17 hours and killed 254 people in lebanon is not a ceasefire and referring to it as one is inaccurate

It is extremely cool and good that trans people exist.

I like this because it articulates the conservative concept of freedom in a nutshell. You have the freedom to do x, except you don't, because I don't want you to. bsky.app/profile/atru...

The Israeli military launched what it described as its most powerful attacks on Lebanon, reportedly killing hundreds.

The best time to do this was Jan 7, 2020. The second best time is right now.

The US press is going to hide this from you but the reason there are "strikes on Lebanon" and "confusion over the strait" is that TRUMP RANDOMLY AGREED TO THE CEASEFIRE TO ESCAPE HIS OWN BLUFF WITHOUT WORKING OUT ANY OF THESE DETAILS

Who writes these?!? I have questions about their definition of “worked”

Just wanted to remind folks, especially the GOP and the FDD, that Barack Obama’s 2015 nuclear deal didn’t give Iran control of the Strait of Hormuz or allow it to keep 60% enriched uranium. It sent $1.7 billion to Iran versus the tens of billions Iran will now make from tolls. 🤷🏽‍♂️

Its April 2023 and Democrats have won a Wisconsin Supreme Court race Its April 2025 and Democrats have won a Wisconsin Supreme Court race Its April 2026 and Democrats have won a Wisconsin Supreme Court race Its April 2027 and Democrats have won a Wisconsin Supreme Court race

I'm never going to take wins like this for granted. What's happened here is a very big deal.

Did you hear the story of the one man $1.8 billion business built by AI as portrayed in the @nytimes.com? Turns out basically every aspect of that story is bullshit and the story should be retracted.

The matter-of-fact way she asks what investors should do if Trump destroys Iran. Absolutely wild. "Let's talk about tonight, this deadline that President Trump has set 8 p.m., has threatened to destroy a civilization. How does an investor process that? Is it a bigger upside risk or downside risk?"

Erm, they're called palaeontologists, actually.

In Korea, when the president declared martial law after midnight and erected barricades in Seoul, congressional reps from all parties ran into the streets, yanked ak47s from the army at the barricades, broke down the locked door to Congress, repealed the martial law order, and arrested the president

Trump: “A whole civilization will die tonight, never to be brought back again. I don’t want that to happen, but it probably will … We will find out tonight, one of the most important moments in the long and complex history of the World. 47 years of extortion, corruption, and death, will finally end”

Congrats to @atrupar.com for some well-deserved notice. As I've said before he's changed the way we do our jobs and altered what we have at our disposal to carry them out:

One problem with bragging about how much you vibecode instead of doing your job, is that when stuff breaks people will know exactly why the thing broke. The other problem is that because you can't do your fucking job anymore, you have no idea why it broke.

Remember that time when ICE shot a man as he fled into his home and then claimed he beat an agent with a snowshovel? And we were all like "you're lying"? They were lying www.nytimes.com/2026/04/06/u...

The Usual Suspects (1995)

Dems have never acknowledged the GOP / Evangelical frames of always being at war* / proselytizing 24/7. That means that Dems have never established 24/7 Party PR war rooms. Or, campaigned out of season. T/tours last year were good. They should be a fixture in Dem rep calendars. * A Soviet policy

Ever single gentile needs to read each and every one of these. A Jewish woman on Instagram made a post about how matzo is made and why we eat it on Passover. Every reply was violent, vile, and hateful. I need you to understand how even the most innocuous part of Jewish existence is reviled.

Trump advisers think the age of imperialism ended because of wokeness, not because 1) colonized peoples made colonialism untenable 2) technology made territorial empire unnecessary. They thought mere brutality and perceived genetic superiority would make wars against countries like Iran easy.

EMBOLDENED!

The NYT literally rewrote Trump saying “open the fuckin’ strait, you crazy bastards, or you’ll be living in hell” as: “Mr. Trump issued a new ultimatum to Iran to end its chokehold over the Strait of Hormuz”

Democrats have spent years declaring affordability is the only thing that matters, forbidding anyone from bringing up any other pressing issues. Now that they have an opportunity to do nothing (their favorite thing to do) and help on that front, they are jumping to action to stop it.

Isn’t it weird how “AI literacy” being pushed on students isn’t about learning how it works, the cost of how it works, learning to spot disinformation, media and tech literacy. But instead is just “employers will like it if you get it to write your emails :)”

"Trump Urges Enhanced Commerce, Offers Religious Greetings"

I didn’t think it was real…..so I went to truth social and there it is.

"The President can do anything he wants to unless 2/3rds of the Senate agrees to convict the President" is not how the Constitution was set up or how any sane system of governance works. That describes a de facto status quo maybe but that status quo is clearly unacceptable bsky.app/profile/scra...

👇🎯 Some of us were, but no one was listening & the rest didn't want to hear it. Unprecedented lawless authoritarianism & violations of the Constitution, on a level so staggering in scope & scale that we still haven't even begun to admit it as a country.

May this hateful fuckstick never know a day's peace for the rest of his miserable life.

this is *incredibly* fucked up

this is pretty fucked up

this is what happens when you build film industries in right-to-work states. scumbags come in to take advantage of underpaid non-union workers, skirting regulations and putting people's lives on the line. the whole tax incentive system is just an elaborate way of skirting around organized labor.

From 2018: "Every once in a while, Twitter is great. Like the time a bunch of film directors dunked hard on an ignorant VFX take."

You know whose fault it actually is that bluesky is dying? the reply guys, who consistently let down power users with substandard riffs and slightly off-topic GIFs

Trump posts about Iran "KEEP THE OIL, ANYONE?"

I remain staunchly anti-AI but it's wild to see how much better Iran's slopaganda is vs the US's. They're making specific references to specific people, and they understand US culture and what works here super well. It will be interesting to see how slopaganda affects public opinion going forward.

It turns out that breaching the wall between church and state means that some branches of Christianity are officially elevated over others. Who could have known? When in the last 500 years could such a lesson possibly have been learned?
