I started following @scalzi.com on here before I read any of his books and thought he was delightful. I just blasted through the first part of Old Man's War and it's amusing to be able to see his persona reflected back in the writing. Really enthralling read so far.

With the help of the Sandy Hook families, The Onion has reached a long-awaited deal to take over InfoWars. We've enlisted the help of @timheidecker.bsky.social, who will be InfoWars' Creative Director. Please stand by for more.

Drunk enough to spill my secrets, not drunk enough to volunteer therm.a

Every once in a long while I'm depressed and then get drunk and smash a plate of the most mediocre nachos that taste amazing and understand how alcoholism exists.

A while back I commissioned a wedding gift for two dear friends from @amyraehill.bsky.social and tonight I was able to give it to them! She turned my friend's photo of the northern lights from their engagement trip into a gorgeous ceramic tea set and I could not be happier with the result.

This is more or less a written warning that Vance will be excommunicated if he continues.

If you ever walk into a long standing restaurant and wonder "How the hell is this place still open?" It's probably because the food is bomb so they don't need to care about anything else.

Why would you say the rapes didn't matter?

Just because he backed off shouldn’t stop efforts to remove him. He is dangerous and cannot be left in power.

Donald Trump must be removed from office for threatening war crimes and genocide. Speaker Johnson: bring the House back into session. Invoking the 25th Amendment and impeachment must be on the table, but Congress should also move on a War Powers resolution to stop Trump.

One horse is a tragedy, a million humans is a statistic, or something.

Donald Trump is deranged. He must be impeached and removed from office. Republicans who don’t stop him will have blood on their hands, and anyone who carries out an order to bomb civilian targets will be complicit in war crimes and will be held accountable.

25th amendment. Impeachment. I will support any avenue to remove Donald Trump from office. We cannot leave this man in charge of America’s nuclear weapons as he threatens to end an entire civilization. And Congress must not fund this reckless administration.

The President is openly threatening genocide. A crime against humanity. He must be removed from office. The 25th Amendment must be invoked. If not, Congress has to do our damn job. Speaker Johnson, call us into session. War powers & impeachment. Remove this man from office.

I love military aviation from a technical perspective but I genuinely can't imagine making a spectacle of it when I know they are being used to do war crimes and kill civilians.

JFC Just don’t invite him in the first place. You’re setting yourselves up to fail.

Would you rather come across a bear or a strange man on the moon?

I moved from Michigan to Washington and this is a bunch of stupid condescending bullshit.

A helmet won't make much of a difference if struck by a massive SUB going 60 mph, but could make a huge difference if struck by a small car going 25 mph! We should shrink our car infrastructure and speeds to make bike safety equipment actually useful.

What is a synonym for ultimate? 🤔

He looks good for 60.

Usually I just assume the funky vibe and look are going to be cover for mediocre music but in this case the music absolutely fucks even on its own.

Someone should take out this Brent guy.

Really glad everybody is completely fucking stupid now.

On the outside I'm really chill but on the inside I feel like I have been screaming at full volume for months straight. This is fine and sustainable I'm sure.

Oh so they are definitely doing it and there is also nothing the US can do about it.

Kind of a subtle thing but I appreciate the phrasing of "war on Iran" as it rightfully describes this as something being inflicted on them by America and not a situation with shared culpability.

Let me be clear: I’m glad Kristi Noem was fired. But we still have to abolish ICE.

Trying to imagine creating a trailer like this for other wars. Imagine the French popping this out in 1778.

There was that whole World War 2 thing.

If we had some real journalism they would play this video the next time she is interviewed and ask how she squares that circle.

reader you are not prepared for the embedded audio here

Guy there are flying robots that can drop knife bombs, and little helicopters with bombs attached to them that can blow up your head. The funny walking robots that you could AT-AT are not the scary thing lol.

MAKE AN EMERGENCY DONATION to Trans Continental Pipeline right now. They are a Colorado based org that helps trans people relocate there and they are overwhelmed with requests. CO borders KS, and TCP has the infrastructure to help get people out. GO DONATE. tcpipeline.org

American leftism will never achieve power if the response to getting peed on while taking public transit is “toughen up” public spaces should be safe and pleasant, and that shouldn’t be a hot take

Truth has inherent value.

For my Midwest homies, Bosco Sticks

I think a good rule of thumb is if you upset someone your first thought should be "Hmm, what did I do to upset them?" And not "Hmm, how can I prove they shouldn't be upset."

Detroit Police Chief Todd Bettison suspended two officers for coordinating with Border Patrol in violation of department policy. He said he “intends to terminate them." Our public records request showed two more instances of officers calling immigration agents, with @kobylevin.bsky.social:

You should automatically acquire citizenship if you have a kid who’s a citizen at birth

This is just made up nonsense. It's no different than saying the core principle of communism is pogroms and mass starvation.

I think we should start referring to the big cities of the US as the heartland. It's a much more accurate comparison, since cities are what pump innovation, culture, and money all throughout the country.

I re-read this and basically every single line is a dig against Trump. Amnesty, peace, the Midwest, high energy, the assassination attempt, union leader etc. I have to admit Newsom has a great comms team.

We've been looking forward to sharing this news for a long time. We're making a graphic novel! The Owl House: The Long-Lived King Written by me and the amazing @mikkicrisostomo.bsky.social Illustrated by the incomparable @dindu99.bsky.social We're so excited to tell a brand new story.

I will not support any funding deal that puts money in the hands of Stephen Miller, Kristi Noem, and this violent agency. Defund and abolish ICE now.
