literally taking smiling photos with a war criminal is the stage of capitalism we are at :(

The one trick idiot is at it again Tell me what you did in the last month. Dance, puppets. Dance www.yahoo.com/news/article...

If winning elections is the only way to stop the madness, then maybe they should do something to show that, if they win, they will actually stop the madness.

Safety Advice: I keep seeing young trans people on social media talking about therapists disrespecting their pronouns and parents telling them that the therapist has a right to their beliefs. I want to be clear: you have a right to the therapy room being a safe supportive space for YOUR growth.

Ah, here's the Benny Hill version

See? The angry mobs are blocking off the streets and setting up encampments or something Mass pandemonium and mayhem

Neoliberal pundits “Karl stop saying the Techno fascists are actively building a surveillance state inside the crumbling facade of America it’s doomerism” The techno fascists:

"Being respectful of our history" means not lying about it. There are not, actually, "a lot of questions" about this grisly massacre You should put your "confidence and trust" in the nonpartisan scholars who have studied this extensively instead of a right-wing Fox & Friends propagandist

Many liberal pundits are unable to function in a world run by fascists. The fascists so thoroughly destroy truth that the pundit can’t even realize what the fascists is doing They assume the fascist has rational ends beyond simply harming as many people as possible, but the fascist doesn’t.

“Show us your warrant!” “Ma’am, you’ve been watching too many movies. We’ll show you the warrant after we’re done.” 🤔 *busts in the door with babies crying*

at what point do US politicians, lawyers, and communities start to realize peaceful protests and legal challenges aren’t really an effective match for unchecked violence like this

What might not occur to you upon reading this headline is that, in other words, ICE is targeting gay men of color Every queer press org should be picking up this story

I wasn't able to make it to the funeral or wake, but I will have a drink with you. Joe, my friend, it has most definitely been a trip.

Here's a hint - your ancestors fucked. Some of them fucked a lot.

if you dont stop calling us nazis we will have the secret police disappear you to a slave labor camp

FEDERAL RESERVE STUDY: "Investors raise rents at 60% higher rates than the average increase...and higher investor share in a neighborhood is correlated with faster rent increases for non-investor landlords." But sure...go ahead & insist investor landlords have nothing to do with the housing crisis.

Everyone online is talking about the rapture today (because reasons) I showed up to standup this morning, and nobody who was physically in the building was on the call. In fact, nobody on teams who was in the building was active. Had me wondering there for a sec They had a fire drill 🤣

Meta HIRED the “chemicals are turning the frogs gay” guy to police AI bias against, presumably, complete morons: “He [Starbuck] falsely asserted that exposure to the pesticide atrazine turned amphibians "gay,” prompting male frogs to mate — a claim that has been repeatedly debunked.”

Those questions are: • Should I fly to the island again? • What happens when Melinda finds out?

There is so much farm dust in the air from the harvest that the air tastes brown. ugh

You have to admit that that is an impressive level of petty

Democrats are not a progressive party. They have reluctantly positioned themselves as such because the Republicans committed to the southern strategy when the Civil Rights Act was passed. For the majority of Dems to vote in favor of this resolution....for Hakeem Jeffries to vote for it...disgusting

The reasons they did *not* approve games are fascinating. They strongly disapproved Diablo II, not just for the violence, but because it depicted man being able to defeat Satan without the intervention of Christ (the only time this argument has ever been made in the history of game criticism)

Disney execs hastily assembling Andor S3 about a group of charismatic Coruscant businessmen who just keep their head down and work with the Empire until the Battle of Endor and then say they were actually against the Empire all along and everyone cheers

No. Stop collecting email addresses to "sign up" for a protest. "But we need a headcount for planning" is a bullshit excuse. Threat modeling is important, but most people don't understand what their threat model actually *is*. Plus any data you collect can be subpoenaed or otherwise acquired

Yesterday we learned that Trump micromanages the prosecution of his enemies and that the head of his secret police was filmed accepting a $50k bribe in a paper bag. Still, for the editors of NYT, the sanctification of Charlie Kirk, saint and martyr is a bigger news story. This paper is soulless.

this is… not how it works. www.bloomberg.com/news/article...

Maybe stop being a garbage fire of a human being? Just a thought

This may seem cute but if you do this too much the cyclists may become reliant on cars feeding them, disrupting the delicate roadway ecosystem

I wanted to get a video of this ghost crab but every time I got close to their hole they scuttled back in, so I tried getting clever with it. I made a little sandcastle and shoved my phone into it, hit record, and walked away. Crab was VERY suspicious of this addition to their environment.

"We are going to be bigger than everything. Even the things that we are a part of" Stop believing the LLM hype idiots.

You have got to be fucking kidding me. Tell me, what are the medical qualifications of the people making this recommendation.

So it's not just me?

I'll say this again: In my opinion, when companies and institutions cave to Trump despite the law being on their side, they are not misunderstanding the law; they are making an educated guess that the United States is heading in a direction where, in practice, the law won't matter.

And OSU has stopped being an institution of higher education

Seeing a lot of people complaining that people point out the US, in many ways, has always been fascist. Claiming that these people are denying history They aren't. If you weren't white, the US was pretty much always somewhere on this scale. The difference now is that white people are targets too.

so many dead canaries and we just keep on mining

By making jokes about killing innocent brown people at a political rally, JD Vance is doing politics the right way. —Ezra Klein

A Black man and a homeless man were found hanging from trees in Mississippi yesterday, for those who haven’t seen yet because it’s barely made it out of local news.

They're openly saying they want to sacrifice LGBTQ people and the planet to appease fascists. This is not only a losing strategy, this is morally repugnant. Every single one of these people should be ashamed, but we know they won't because they are amoral sociopaths.

At this point, this may be one of the more normal things going on

Natives in Hollywood would not be where they are today without this man. *I* would not be where I am today. He made the Sundance Film Festival & Sundance Native Lab I was in. So much more than an advocate, he created space. He was one of the few who invested in our future. To Robert Redford 🕊️ RIP

Google is too apparently. The bubble is starting to pop

LMAO YALL. So that witch hunt website for anybody who spoke ill of ole boy? Some white man basically said “you got a fucking HOUR to get my name off this shit before my lawyer take everything at your house & load it in a UHaul to mine.” EVERY NAME off that website & the submission form is down.

FELLOW ROMANCE AUTHORS THIS INCLUDES YOU

And now the VP hosted Kirk's podcast and apparently called for the active doxxing of anyone who was saying bad things about him, wanting people to try to get them fired ("and worse" being implied) All while decrying "political violence" - which is only bad when other people do it obviously

Funny that the supposed "significant cognitive disadvantage" will be caused by... not using... the thing that actually causes cognitive atrophy... Also, for those people who thought that he couldn't look more punchable...
