Today is a good day to remember, and to say, that the #MeToo movement was right, and was righteous, and has been vindicated over and over again. There was no overreach. There was no excess. There was no they-went-too-far. So much work remains to be done.

I was peer pressured* into stitching this. *Asked one single time if I was going to stitch it

Anyway I'm shocked that Israel didn't give up their starve-everyone-to-death strategy even after Trump asked them nicely. Can't believe it

You sorry bluesky lot will never know, but I am killing it; doing real numbers in the WaPo comment section. Racking up "thoughtful" and "clarifying" like nobody's business.

Evergreen skeet.

It's a little funny that Trump and Hesgeth just fucked up military readiness by forcing military brass to the DMV from across the globe only to strand them in the DMV while the government is shut down.

Here is some garbage that I screenshot'd on that other site, worthy of your attention:

Doctors HATE this one SIMPLE trick: saying tylenol causes autism

"There's a rumor - and I don't know if it's true or not - that Cuba, they don't have paper money or coins so they use giant beaver tails and carved stone wheels to pay for things. But who knows."

I am very tired of boomers telling other boomers that Charlie Kirk was really important to young people and spoke for what young people wanted. None of this is true.

Border Czar Tom Homan, deeply embarrassed by the revelation of his bribery scandal, announces that henceforth his going rate will be twice as much: “I was criminally undercharging.”

The big "what causes Autism" reveal is on Monday, and I'm betting that it is "woke."

The reason the administration is full of people like this is because Trump knows they'll do illegal shit if asked and he can squeeze them if they don't

We Lefties are all different. - "I'm not."

Resist!!

Watching all these centrist pundits stress the “civility” of Charlie Kirk’s style without addressing the ugliness of his substance is giving me a renewed appreciation of how the civil, polite White Citizens’ Councils conned the same crowd into thinking they were distinct from the cruder Klan.

The fact that Matthew Dowd lost his job for pointing out Charlie Kirk’s hate speech, while Brian Kilmeade openly suggests we should euthanize the homeless and there is zero outrage, shows exactly what is terribly wrong with today’s political mainstream media.

Gosh!

Your uncle rn is drafting a Facebook press release condemning violence as if the national media was waiting for his statement.

New BSky game just dropped - pick your date for the Fall of the American Republic.

The number one rule in the New York Times style guide is that anyone with power or wealth is smart and well intentioned and therefore when they do dumb shit there must be some context we don't understand that makes it smart actually

President RFK Jr. has betrayed the legacy of Donald Trump. David Brooks, 2030

I love when there’s a false start or an offsides and they all stand up and point at each other like kids on the playground who just got in trouble for something 😂

Informer Donald Trump is the hottest white emcee since Snow but did he really take Jeffrey Epstein a licky boom boom down? by Maureen Dowd

at risk of destroying democracy, this is factual.

I heard that EJ Antoni performs under the stage name Easy J at many DC libraries. No, he's not a drag performer, he just screams at kids that fossil fuels are cool and that global warming is fun.

yes, there is something to be said about Calvinball as the metaphor of the hour. Although my law prof friends say their students have no idea what it means....

People think I don’t like squirrels until they realise I’m shouting encouragement

As a person who is Message Board Years Old it’s wild to me that people think Bluesky is where the mean people are. Everyone knows this site doesn’t have Ads, but it doesn’t get enough credit for also hardly having any Hominems.

I’m no longer seeking professional help with my mental health issues, I’ve got these bad boys for life, I’m gonna support them the way they support me.

Three Prowar Jagoffs from 2010, but this time, one or more of them wants peace, momentarily

"Violent crime is up in Washington, DC" says man who pardoned the largest group in history that committed violent crimes in Washington, DC.

If I pitched a story with the headline "Epstein story a nothingburger: Google searches for 'Epstein' fall week-on-week", I'd be laughed out the room. Like, really? Week-on-week changes in search traffic are the measurement tool for public sentiment? Even as consumers' use of search is changing?

the real reason bluesky is dying is because everyone is so mean to me, specifically.

Just spitballing here, but cryptobros throwing sex toys at WNBA players on the court and other cryptobros and male sports commentators calling it funny and telling the women and their coaches to 'lighten up' both explains the 'male loneliness epidemic' and why I don't care about it.

“ [recycling] is neither technically nor economically viable for many types of plastic. To date, research shows that only a small fraction — under 10% — of all the plastic ever produced has actually been recycled and only 1% has been recycled twice.” #recycling #FossilFuels #plastics #PlasticWaste

"We're all throwing dildos at women athletes to promote our memecoin" really puts a fine point on not just how sexist, mean and stupid so much of right now is, but also the grim degree to which we're just inundated with Stuff a 15-Year-Old Dipshit Would Think is Cool. A confederacy of Beavises.

Lots of people won't read substack for very good reasons (I'm still in the process of getting off of it & just haven't had time, honestly) so... here is a screenshot w/ alt text of my new poem for your reading/sharing pleasure. Each line is taken from a different Dem fundraising email or text.

I deserve more praise for calling Sydney Sweeney “Gen Z Mena Suvari” I mean come on guys

"I don't mean 50%. I want to make it emphatically clear beyond a shadow of a doubt that I am an idiot."

I asked ChatGPT and it said that I was a credulous rube who would believe anything if the message was delivered with a sufficient degree of fawning subservience

Scientists spent over 75 years trying to warn people. Still to this day while an entire country evacuates, there are people who deny the real threats of climate change.

18 things Kotzebue, Alaska, is about to lose because of the defunding of public broadcasting: (according to the city's letter to Alaska's delegation)

The governing party of the United States is shutting down the federal government to cover-up evidence the president sexually abused children so he can continue trying to implement dictatorship. That's just a true statement about the world!

was there a time in history when politicians were like "hey look at my ideas I'm very smart" instead of "I am as dumb as you rubes, please vote for me"?
