AOC on MTG retiring: "She's carefully timing her departure just 1-2 days after her pension kicks in and after making millions of dollars insider trading stocks for weapons manufacturers and others while in office."

Ever since someone on here brought up the fact that the media literally just interviews rich people to get their thoughts on random shit, even though there’s absolutely no need to do that, it’s all that I can see everywhere

AI sitcom accidentally a Lynchian fever dream. The sort of general malaise that only the genius possess and insane lament.

I was remiss yesterday in not wishing HAPPY DEMI NEW YEAR TO ALL WHO OBSERVE: Every July 1st, my old work BFF Ginevra and I celebrate Demi New Year. Reboot, reload, refresh, and try to make the second half something great. *Just realized I should use photos from The Substance for this.

We now have a concentration camp in Florida. Stop pretending any of this is normal. If you claim to be a good person and you're not outwardly opposing this regime, you're not a good person. Be human.

I know we all hate on the Atlantic. Should I subscribe to Jacobin or New Republic? Someone on Reddit mentioned Nautilus?

Yeah, and this is a defect built deep inside the left-wing conception of Trump's America, which is that MAGA's fascist and bigoted politics must be some kind of disguise for an agenda of self-enrichment and economic exploitation. But it isn't: for these people, hurting others is its own reward.

Have they, Andrew? Have they really

Pretty sure America just went to war because nobody liked Donald Trump's military parade.

We chose the right day to launch the share button

I'm just glad one of these men has the nuclear codes and the other has all our personal data.

this is like drake and kendrick lamar but they're both drake

Ben Smith lifts up a corner of the plush comforter under which our would-be overlords have been huffing each other's farts for the past few years as they collectively dream their way back to the cutting-edge ideas of the late 19th century www.semafor.com/article/04/2...

You can’t say criminals don’t deserve due process when due process is the thing that decides if they're criminals. Otherwise you're just kidnapping people you don't like.

Turns out people want their dems to fight for their values and protect due process

“You can’t say people are our most important product and then treat them like shit.” - Jim Sinegal, co-founder of Costco

Back on their bullshit I see www.nytimes.com/2025/04/20/m...

Okay get me Beshear saying shit like this and I got some hope.

The Bush administration disappeared people too, sent them to a different gulag at Gitmo and other black sites, kidnapped people off the street of Milan, tortured them, in the name of "a different kind of war." We didn't come close to holding them accountable. We're seeing the cost of that now.

“frankly, he has not won an election since before I was born” Lmaooooo

incredible scenes when you have a president who hasn't achieved object permanence

This is an obvious point, but cannot overstated. There is an enormous difference between deporting someone - where they get off a plane as a free citizen in their home country AND FUNNELING THEM INTO A BRUTAL PRISON FROM WHICH THEY HAVE NO CHANCE OF EVER EMERGING!!!

Fox News has resorted to just straight up lying about Abrego Garcia, who has never been convicted or even charged with a crime

David Brooks headlines, 2020-2025

this whole administration is like when they shut off the containment unit in ‘ghostbusters’

That’s right… Bill Kristol?

As a new decade approaches, new midlife crisis, so new ink. #gaytattoo #gaydaddy #gayleather #gaymusclebear

"The 2024 election wasn’t a restaurant where you could order cheaper eggs but politely ask for the server to hold the fascism. You’re still getting the fascism, and your eggs aren’t just overpriced now, they’re broken and rotten." -- @playtyperguy.com

@andymatic.bsky.social , this has you written all over it. Cloaca. #Unholy 😈

“Drink cloaca”

adobe deleted their post so this one's for posterity

In the words of Dame Shirley: The joke feels rather sad that it’s all just a little bit of history repeating.

It’s weird that a movement that idolized Pinochet would get us here.

ELIE MYSTAL: “This is what fascism looks like. I don’t know what y’all expected it to look like… People are being abducted and disappeared from our streets. These people haven’t even been charged in court.” 🇺🇸

The single most clarifying piece of journalism about Russell Brand that I've encountered is this video from @abbierichards.bsky.social. She charts Russell Brand's political evolution through his video content, and shows just how profitable a right wing grift can be. www.youtube.com/watch?v=eo4g...

I can’t believe how stupid everything is

Omg this is so stupid I can’t believe how stupid this is

We tried mass tariffs in 1828, and it crashed the economy. We tried again in 1930, and it crashed the economy. Third time’s the charm, I guess.

Whatever else Yale Law may be, it does not seem to be a place where the law is taught or learned.
