"Old and true. And sturdy. One of the best [gaming] tools ever built. We've grown reliant on Imperial tech, and we've made ourselves vulnerable. There's a growing list of things we've known and forgotten, things they've pushed us to forget. Things like freedom."

Leftist on here: “Ugh libs never talk to leftists they just strawman. This is why libs suck.” Me: “Leftists do this to liberals constantly; it’s all stereotypes and confirmation bias. It’s not something unique to liberals.” Leftist: [quote posts] “SEE LIBS BAD” Me: [remove quote, block] 🙄

A lot of people, no matter how loudly they criticize others about critical thinking, really just operate 90% on 💫vibes💫 thinking.

Alright. It's Saturday night. 💔 🥤 🎸 👾

I got a ticket to this and then forgot to add it to my calendar and I don't feel up to going tonight (and forgot to put together an outfit for it) and now I'm just sad. #StarWars

Stunning footage from earlier today, when the new Kilauea eruption covered the USGS Webcam 3, which is situated in the Halemaʻumaʻu crater near the southern rim of the much larger Kilauea caldera. This *isn't* what the people of Pompeii saw. But it's not very far off.

Here's Portugal The Man with @alyankovic.bsky.social and Jorma Taccone covering Killing in the Name just like we all imagined happening one day. www.threads.com/@wonderboymu...

Someone who once worked for this guy told me he was at a party where everyone was in one way or another, economically dependent upon him. Under those circumstances you don't get much pushback for dumb statements. When they do encounter that pushback, they think its wokeness that must be destroyed.

Is it just me or does being an “influencer” or “content creator” feel like one of those “you have to have money to make money” kind of things? Like you need to have (or have access to) nice houses/apartments, be able to afford to buy lots of excess materials and goods, equipment, etc.

Got added to a blue maga list because I don’t subscribe to racist white men of any background being racist fucking white men. Y’all are so caught in labels you can’t see your own bullshit. Fuck off.

cannot stress enough how bad it is to give teenage boys a "see this person naked" button. massive, multi-axis disaster

Hey @ahumblebard.bsky.social hope you’re having a good birthday! 🎉

“yOu jUsT DoN’T gEt The jOKe” Racist is racist, kids. Jokes are not a special exception. Satire is not a special exception.

The number of leftists on here defending this racist headline because “haha libs stupid for being mad about racism this is funny actually and it’s okay because libs bad haha” is extremely high. 😒 🫩

I'm a socialist & the hating on liberals bullshit is so irritating. I got self defined libs in my life who are public defenders, smuggle abortion meds & feed the homeless & do more to advance our collective agendas in a day than most Leftists have done in a year, & they treat em like the enemy

A ton of good people with great politics identify as liberals because they’re not extremely online and are unaware some on the left think being a liberal a bad thing to be. I think it’s stupid as shit to use “liberal” as an insult that makes those people catch strays and confuses them right now.

"Shitlib" Which gets thrown around a lot in modern leftist circles I first started hearing from right wingers in the early 2010s. At some point the left adopted it and its never felt right to me.

Happy to report that Claude got a proper A1 @sfchronicle.com obituary. 🐊🫡

Racist joke is still racist. More at 11. SMH.

Look I am all for bashing Jeffries on things he has done and understand parody and jokes, but only a white person could have written this because a black person could have told you the Central Park 5 is not a joking matter and neither is putting it on Jeffries

If you can’t prevent your product from doing stuff like this, your product should not be out in the world.

AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHH

Remember when everyone was saying “the cruelty is the point”? That was correct.

Should go without saying, but governing groups of people who do not share a reality is impossible

I hate the way every disagreement on social media feels like a life or death battle. Like any time I disagree with someone I just immediately assume they're going to double down, post a bunch of laugh emojis, and call me a "moron"... or at minimum act smugly condescending or defensive at me.

Welp, it happened (again). I had someone (a Latina woman) on Threads tell me that because she studied "under a (note: singular) Jewish professor" and had "Jewish friends" that she was more of an authority on Judaism than any Jewish person who disagreed with her.

After cyber Monday, it's untangle Tuesday, where we're meant to spend a few hours untangling cords. Then comes will-o'-the-wisp Wednesday, where floating lights will lead us to sale items. Thrall Thursday is when we all follow the orders of the Bone Lord and help with construction of the Bone Tower.

While Barker’s Flower Fairies get a bad rap today, the illustrations were noted for their extreme botanical accuracy - like Beatrix Potter with her anatomically accurate animals, Barker was interested in getting children to appreciate the natural world

After the 2025 we’ve had, the drunk and passed out raccoon is a MOOD. I feel ya, lil raccoon. I frickin’ feel ya.

The FDA is urging customers to toss certain brands of grated Pecorino Romano; at the same time, it escalated an existing recall of numerous shredded cheeses. n.pr/48yohW6

Hillary Clinton blames TikTok and “totally made up” videos for young people’s views on Israel and Palestine. She says social media influenced “not just the usual suspects” but also “young Jewish Americans who don’t know the history and don’t understand.”

GenAI “democratizes” art in the same way as a billion dollar company stealing home made bread from random people and then selling it to other people. Imagine a world where there is no pre-existing art. Now, tell me how genAI functions in this world.

omg hi @chiitan.love

Getting ready to get pre-mad at the Democrats if they beat the fascists three years in advance, because I bet they’re going to blow the election in seven years time. This feels like a productive use of everyone’s time

"I think we should beat the fascists" "So we'll be voting for Dems?" "I guess, though if I know those stupid feckless worthless Dems they'll just hand control back in 4 years to more fascists" "Hm. Guess I won't vote then." "Exactly. My job here is done. Those fascists sure will be sorry now!"

omg hi @chiitan.love

Someone on Threads posted that Israel and Palestine was simply about "white" people versus "brown" people and Zionism is white supremacy and I try to avoid the topic because everyone seems very ignorant and/or kneejerk about it but I couldn't let that stand apparently.

I bought one of these hoping I could use it to charge my iPad while simultaneously using a USB drive but it doesn't work. I've looked but can't find a dongle that will specifically let me charge the device and use a USB drive. Does anyone know if that's possible or not? Thanks!
