we had nothing to lose but our chains and whips

Yesterday, WIRED learned that Madison Square Garden was suing us for our accurate reporting. We stand by our work. That’s why we’re removing the paywall from two of the MSG stories they don’t want you to read, making them free for everyone.

very weird seeing some women speculate that at the heart of misogyny is some kind of latent homosexuality. i'm sorry but like you have to come to terms with the fact that some categorically hetero men truly emphatically subscribe to the idea that violence against women is the natural order of things

Dress better, or undress better? 📸 @jamesaugust.bsky.social

economists were a mistake btw

I am fifty miles from my home in LA, and someone just yelled “tourist!” at me from an early 2010s BMW 5-series.

Saw a t-shirt on an Anime Expo-goer that read “TWO INCHES TAKE IT OR LEAVE IT,” but that was far less self-shaming than the old guy strutting in his “SPCX” shirt.

I’m seeing a lot of Libs being smug about MAGA’s climate ignorance. But Dems r the ones who subscribe to “net zero by 2050” which is like saying “stop running towards the cliff when ur 10 feet past the cliff’s edge.” Denying a threat or believing in it & doing nothing = same results.

they're doing "it's ephebophila" but for the mass murder of children

pretty devastating dunk at the end of this paragraph

I bought a new MacBook Pro a couple days ago, and the price is now up $1050

Can anyone translate "L’influenceur masculiniste néonazi" for me? I'm kinda stuck on that one. What could it mean?

When a Jew wins a landslide election in the most Jewish city in the United States, where massive numbers of Jews turned out to reject a terrorist org that lobbies for genocide:

Can't believe this LAPD family dad Jamie McBride involved in 6 shootings daughter Jacqueline killed a woman in 2026 daughter Toni killed a guy in a mental health crisis in 2018, and now gets to retire with a pension at age 31 bc she got irritable bowel syndrome from the stress of killing him!

I haven’t been out today, but I could smell it outside my place yesterday. It had a burning plastic smell. I also went up to the top of Mt. Hollywood (above Griffith Observatory) and could smell it there. Downtown would normally be visible in this picture

Spot on.

Anybody have any clue who this is? I’m baffled

Fucking what? By who???

RIP Mark Rothko. You would have loved how the hydrogen peroxide bleach is only turning the Reflecting Pool blue around the perimeter

happy pride to all the paypigs and dilutionbros

Im yelling “go Robert Mueller and the rule of law!”

I understand that this is facially apparent but I don’t think it really hits without repeating: the minute the rules changed, these states immediately turned to the *most racist* maps, the ones the courts had already said were *too racist*

someone sent me this screen shot from insta:

Trump Makes Figurines Of Himself, Ivanka Kiss In Miniature Ballroom Model

This is why Corporate Dems turn something like historic levels of inequality and life essential price gouging into a focus grouped word like “affordability.” Once the pain people are experiencing becomes a free floating, action free marketing word you can apply it to all kinds of sleazy stuff.

the most surreal thing about this era of open yelling about masculinity is that, if you grew up anything like I did, you were exposed to several sets of standards of masculinity and would be hard pressed to identify which of them the Paxtons and Millers of the world are living up to

Follow the money. The prison-industrial pipeline benefits when public safety dollars get rerouted from community care to law enforcement. This is a multimillion dollar transfer from something that works to a system that has spent decades failing the same people.

READ: A short story that's happening right now. Something deeply dangerous in SF. A waste of taxpayer dollars. A decision driven by greed. One that will undermine community health & safety. No one knows about it. Please read & share. There's still time to change how it ends.

Who do I know in Boston?

The Trump $1.776 billion slush fund is not mere corruption. Trump is giving his brownshirts money for recruiting, logistics, AR-15's and tactical gear. Nobody in the national media seems to be talking about this, or about how the Paycheck Protection Program played a central role in funding Jan 6

Incredible- Trump's $2 billion taxpayer-subsidized slush fund comes with a legal disclaimer that basically says "we are not responsible for any crimes committed with this money"

Former Google CEO Eric Schmidt was booed throughout this commencement speech at the University of Arizona for his praise of AI. This comes just a week after another commencement speaker who mentioned AI was booed at a school in Florida. Read more: www.404media.co/ucf-ai-comme...

LA deserves this kind of leadership

This is the University of Central Florida. So many people really have no idea how much kids hate this shit.

This story is WILD. Juan Orlando Hernandez, the Honduran ex-president pardoned by Trump for narcotrafficking, seemingly caught on tape in dozens of conversations (if true), discussing plans with GOP and other figures to attack left-wing governments, and saying Israel paid for his pardon from Trump.

imagine being such a loathsome toad that you have to launder your inane, self-serving takes through a more racist version of Cruella DeVille, who happens to be your mother
