The Three Stigmata of Palmer Tesla

We've had an incredibly anxious night with wobbly baby Squiggle, but she's still with us & tentatively a bit better -- vet described her as "one hell of a fighter." Please help us keep her fighting ❤️ gofund.me/662b94d7e

Lovely 😆

Don’t try to save the fascist women who prop it up, either. They made their bed.

An important read. The oppression of women goes hand in hand with fascist removal of safety nets. Men who don’t support the freedom and equality of women should pull themselves up by their own bootstraps.

My statement formally recognising the State of Palestine.

we're in a national crisis because everyone hates conservatives so much nobody will date them and their families refuse to talk to them; but also we're in a national crisis because our institutions are liberals who don't realize how out of touch they are with the overwhelmingly conservative public

According to Tom Homan, for the crime Tom Homan allegedly committed, Tom Homan should have his citizenship stripped away and be renditioned to a foreign prison without receiving due process in the courts. Sorry, Tom Homan, but those are Tom Homan's rules.

What Charlie Kirk and Jesus have in common is that American Christofascists absolutely hate it when you quote them directly.

Everyone keeps quoting Andor, which is great. Andor shows we'll never stop fascism with speeches and votes in the imperial senate. Real resistance requires sabotage, rallying allies of the rebellion at a secret base, and destroying the empire's genocidal weapons.

This really is worth your time. Well done, @thedailyshow.com

people have already mentioned SNEAKERs, THREE DAYS OF THE CONDOR and of course ALL THE PRESIDENT’S MEN as great redford performances, let me recommend THE CANDIDATE, which is really one of the best movies ever made about american politics

1. A decaf latte in the morning. 2. The sound of my daughter laughing at her own farts. 3. Liverpool winning 😀 4. Reading a good sci-fi book. 5. A long walk through the city.

I mean, I don’t think it’s hard to make that leap tbh. I think my tweet makes perfect sense so don’t need to explain it further. You might see it differently but it’s uncharitable not to allow others their own interpretation. Agree or not that’s fine but keep it civil.

If you wanna engage with me do so but less of the pseudo intellectual insults please. Of you think I’m wrong, say so and where. That way we can come to some form of understanding. Be nice don’t be a dick.

This. This is exactly how this fascist’s legacy should be framed 👏

The story here is increasingly about the right’s reaction — the incitement, the calls for war, the effort to use this terrible incident to neuter opposition. This should be seen in the context of authoritarian regimes worldwide and their efforts to exploit acts of political violence to consolidate.

The bar for "doing politics the right way" can't be as low as "despite being murdered, he was not himself a murderer." Kirk was not a "robust supporter of free speech," he cut his teeth compiling lists of college professors to be fired, harassed, or worse. He was a fascist through and through

I just watched the clip twice. He literally said “…from another country…” This is why the OP has tweeted that interpretation. In my view it fits with the overall sentiment in US politics of immigrant bashing and blaming “murderers”, etc rhetoric. So it’s not hard to make that leap.

“THIS IS WAR.” “Civil war.” “The Left is the party of murder.” “The Left won’t stop unless it’s forced to.” Influential figures across the right have decided to use Charlie Kirk’s death to promote their fantasies of war and retribution against Democrats and leftists.

Amazing how those democratic lawmakers who were hunted down in their homes in the middle of the night in Minnesota weren’t a watershed moment of political violence, huh?

Great stuff! This will be extremely useful for my media imaginaries chapter

Deadlines are coming up for our AWG in-person workshop in Durham! It's a great chance to get a draft piece of work reviewed by a discussant if you're working on astropolitics or space policy/security/IR/history. No restrictions on methods/approach/theoretical disciplines. Details 👇

Found one of these in a secondhand shop in Hampstead for my daughter. She absolutely loves it

Racism hasn't been here since the beginning of time and this daft person has never experienced racism. AI isn't alive and the training data contains all the bias of the humans, but some folks will defend Clippy before they defend the rights of actual living beings.

The “problem” with vaccines? They so effective at preventing deaths that they create generations of people that question whether disease was a problem in the first place because they have never experienced the horrors of a world without vaccines.

This is some evil shit. Capitalism and/or the harsh rigours of life can force anyone on the streets (I know I’ve been there and ingot lucky) but what we need is compassion, understanding and a helping hand from all levels of society to prevent people falling into homelessness.

I wondering they used ChatGPT to write the response too

He’s right. Just watched it and it’s hilarious and moving from start to finish. And the little epilogue at the end? #chefskiss

Any chance you can wait until I finish my PhD? 🤣

I think a bigger question would be even if he was required to do so, who would stop him from not doing so and who would make him accountable?

It's getting very Season 1, Episode 3 in the US right now.

Leading global experts just confirmed what we’ve long known: Gaza is in famine. At least half a million Palestinians are facing starvation, acute malnutrition and death. And it’s likely to spread. The U.S. government is not a bystander to this genocide. We can end it today.

This is filled with excellent insights. Not long and worth reading in full.

Basically every mainstream news outlet has demonstrated, through their actions, that they disagree. But not a single one of them has publicly acknowledged or defended their judgment.

PKD describes this exploitation in Ubik but it’s a door that refuses to open unless it’s paid five cents. Capital is not “innovative” or “inventive” except in the extremely narrow sense of making you pay for things that already exist.
