"Look on my works, ye mighty, and despair."

I found this "Who's the most influential" thing interesting, but that's about it. Obviously, I'm not on the list, but I was amused to see a former neighbor listed extremely highly (had no idea they were so influential). That said...

Nothing about her struedel recipe?

This reminds me of those Mister Rogers videos where he'd take a break in the middle of an episode to show you a short film on how pencil erasers are made.

If this is you, then watch the ads they run on those stations while they're playing reruns of Family Feud or whatever. Contact the companies who bought ad time, and tell them you're boycotting unless/until they either pull their ads from Sinclair, or demand Kimmel back. Then follow thru & boycott.

I know antifa isn't a real organization because I don't get 40 texts a week from them asking for donations.

Good comms.

This is an excellent and accurate observation.

Pretty much this. This is also why the "Can you imagine if Obama/Biden/a liberal did..." doesn't matter. You can just...stop with that. Forever. Because that's the point. Hypocrisy is a flex. It's the performance of dominance.

Strike back.

*By unanimous consent.* Remember that part. They talk a big game, but they don't do shit when the moment comes. And sure, if you challenge them, they'll have some excuse, but it's the same story over and over and over. They buckle like belts, and the rest of us continue to suffer.

If you're still giving money to Bezos's Washington Post, I urge you to stop. The only "offense" @karenattiah.bsky.social committed is honesty. Read downthread and consider diverting your support to her work.

Elon Musk never got humiliated on a Golden Ticket tour of a Chocolate Factory, and it shows.

Know who else won a democratic election before he became an autocrat? Hitler.

Sage advice. Block and move on, and help everyone here who doesn't want this place turning into Shitter/X.

I hope Mayor Parker and Gov. Shapiro are paying attention here.

"The Judges, both of the supreme and inferior Courts, shall hold their Offices during good Behaviour..." - U.S. Const., Art. III, Sec. 1. This is not "good Behaviour."

You know how folks say "Don't let Trump and his goons exhaust you"? How they point out that so many of Trump's efforts are meant to keep you disengaged, resigned to your fate, etc.? More and more I find myself feeling that way re: congressional Dems, too.

Bingo. The USPS is a public good. We need to think more about our public goods and the benefits they offer. They aren't meant to generate profit. They're often meant to run at a loss *precisely because* their social benefit outweighs the profit motive.

Sorry, but I gotta take issue with the phrasing here. Chatbots were not "socialized" to anything. They were *programmed* by people who, themselves, were socialized in this culture. The chatbot is computer software; nothing more. Lines of code don't have intelligence, feelings, or psychology.

I keep seeing kids in their late teens and early 20s romanticize the year 2016. “It’s 2016 and you’re listening to this song…” Guys, nobody liked 2016. Until 2020, it was considered one of the worst years anyone had ever seen. Everyone cool died. It was fucking miserable. Stop it.

Narrator: "They were."

Your periodic reminder that WAPO serves the regime, and you should unsubscribe.

It's obviously murder. We're not at war with Venezuela. The US has no jurisdiction to kill people in international waters for maybe committing crimes or being on the boats of people who might be committing crimes.

Your periodic reminder that law and morality exist in two separate and distinct spheres. Was this illegal? Maybe. Was this morally good? Absofuckinglutely.

Very important information from the NLG for members of the military about refusing illegal orders nlgmltf.org/military-law...

Every time Pete Hegseth talks, I think of this guy:

Modern politics is right wing parties saying “We have summoned The Shadow Lord from the realm of eternal screaming, he shall lay waste to this wretched earth” while sensible centrists say “We’re going to lose the next election if the left keeps moaning about The Shadow Lord.”

Yeah? Well fuck her. She's wrong.

He's a lying sack of shit who is trying to kill us.

Every time anyone asks RFK Jr a question he doesn't want to answer he always says "i'D LiKe tO sEe tHe dATa" and the only thing I can imagine him doing with data is eating it

"I dunno, man. The boss told me to make some shit up, so I made some shit up. What do you want from me?"

Did he mention that he cried?

Legacy media is a dying model, if not already a zombie.

The chance it could happen is very, very real.

I read this as the Court calling SCOTUS a pack of assclowns who are bad at their jobs.

This was also a crime, by the way, and we should have put him in prison for it.

“following rumors of his death donald trump held a press conference announcing extrajudicial killings of civilians and plans for a military invasion of an american city” is a perfectly factual headline that could be used to describe what we saw yesterday

Best of luck, assholes. Funny thing about life: nobody gets out of it alive.

"If once you have paid him the danegeld, you never get rid of the Dane."

Is he normally 30 minutes late for press conferences, or is he just dead today?

I seriously think that being in the environment that is Twitter anymore just...rots your brain. Truly. I think it fucks with your perspective w/o realizing it, just from swimming in a toxic stew brought to you by the algorithm.

'Tis a consummation Devoutly to be wished.

Did he say it live on TV? Because he could still be dead or incapacitated and some dickbag staffer Truthed it out pretending to be him.

I stopped giving a shit about what Nate had to say when he stopped giving a shit about democracy and moral good.

What if we got my boy one last blurb? @bloody-disgusting.com @maconblair.bsky.social @screamboxtv.bsky.social @cineverse-ent.bsky.social

Folks, you need this in your life.
