Giving strong Yes Prime Minister vibes youtu.be/DGscoaUWW2M?...

Twitch: where a trans furry vtuber with 3 followers has a comprehensive plan to revitalize democracy and the welfare state of the country and it would work

Nothing drives engagement like anger. I screwed up my threads algorithm and now it’s all bad dates which is funny considering I haven’t dated since the Reagan administration.

SO, NOW THAT WE KNOW WHAT'S WHAT, I'D LIKE TO REMIND YOU IT'S DAY 61 & THAT CHEETO FUCKER ISN'T GOING TO GO AWAY QUIETLY INTO THE NIGHT. YOU GUYS GOING TO START REMOVING YOUR KID GLOVES OR YOU GONNA CONTINUE BEING THE USELESS MOTHERFUCKERS WHO ALLOW THEIR GOVERNMENT TO DESTROY THE WORLD, just asking

Funny, but it’s not just the NYTIMES but all the enablers.

Make America Geocities Again

I had an account over on MySpace; I used it because back when anybody who had a band had to have a MySpace account for it, that included my nephews, who had a metal band in high school (they were born around 1990, and one of them is still professionally employed in the metal band business.)

MySpace was the coolest. I loved setting up my themes and picking the right song to go with it. Then, getting introduced to good bands. I miss Tom. 😢

Huh. So maybe it's time to think about going back to Facebook?

Brilliant

LinkedIn is the "Severance" of social media platforms. People post there, but they have no memory of it once they click away from the site.

This douche thinks he’s a player at throwing shade, when all he’s doing is showing his own bias, the times and the post are on top of the garbage heaps of the past, like 65 years olds thinking they’re 25, with all the arrogance and self entitlement, dude is a farce, and so is his employer

Are the people who run the media not to blame numbnuts?

Can we put this on our holiday greeting cards????

as they said in the old days WE ARE FUCKED

This joke was inspired by Yes Minister

To be fair, it’s not just the headline writers. We blame Maggie Haberman and Peter Baker, too.

Where's the lie 😅

Heh

Tumblr:

Look, I hate this, but mostly because it’s so spot on.

Yes, Minister inspires all kinds of things.

The paper you work for sucks too.

The NYT is where they spend their time crafting euphemisms for lies and illegal while crying about readers complaining that they are acquiescing to fascism.

Everything old is new again. www.youtube.com/watch?v=DGsc...

I'd argue that Facebook is still the place where us geezers try to remain connected to the people with whom we reconnected at our 50th high school reunions.

Mastodon:

Couple questions: 1) who does write the headlines? 2) why are you all okay with your work constantly being mischaracterized by the people that write the headlines?

That's what gets me. Fox News has about 200x the audience of NYT, but the Times is the one destroying the republic?? Some criticism is justified but it's now a competitive sport on the left.

Tumblr is where people are bringing back Bad Luck Brian for some reason

"OnlyFans users don't care who's running the country, as long as she's got big..."

Mastodon is where people endlessly bitch about billionaire patrons while cross-posting content from their platforms, but that really doesn't matter compared to this really cool bit of moss growing on this one tree!

To be fair, those are some pretty erroneous headlines.

Mastodon: no such people exist (jk jk I still read and post there)

I blocked NYT here and it has been a real big quality of life improvement.

🤣

And sadly, the NYT print edition v on-line edition are very different for the same story. Guess which one is more infuriating??

NYT headlines are the opposite of clickbait

uhhh no they're pretty bad. state-sponsored propaganda against trans people and """DEI"""

😂🤣😂🤣🤦‍♀️

Lol, everyone on social media is underemployed

Nah, Tumblr is basically Stan Lee in this gif; listening to a Severance/Our Flag Means Death/Arcane podfic, purposefully dissociating from the destruction around him.

mastodon is the verrit of twitters

Sure buddy. Read the fucking room.

📌

I mean. The way that legacy media covered the 2024 presidential race is a big part of How We Got Here.

the facebook one 😭

And Mastodon? I don't visit there every day, but I find some of the most interesting stuff when I do.

LOL, and what about reddit?

, you and everyone else over at Whitey WaPo and all the wonderful whites of the NYT for that matter

And OnlyFans doesn't care as long as she's got big tits.

This is great, but on Bluesky people actually know exactly who to blame for whatever Republicans just did: Chuck Schumer and "the Democrats".

It pains me how much you nailed this.

No lies detected.

how clever

Many of the comments seem to back up your thesis.

I’m pro-dolphin so…

😀

gross just saw where u work

I am liking this, not because I necessarily agree but because I am amused and I to be amused by something in these trying times so I don’t claw my fucking eyes out

in re Bluesky, The Spousal Unit says this to me every time I object to a NYT headline ... but TBF, causality runs from action to NYT headline, not from NYT headline to action. ... unless ...well, I could make a case that causality runs from ... Oh, never mind, this is getting too complicated ...

NYT headline writers really do deserve blame for the shit they write.

I feel seen. But also, I actually have a NYTimes subscription and sometimes, it’s more than the headlines that make me mad.

NYT: JD Vance is a Catholic saint (and they chose a flattering photo, pro-Nazi propaganda from the New York Times). www.nytimes.com/2024/08/25/u... 2024: "Republican vice-presidential candidate defends spreading false, racist claims demonizing Haitian immigrants" www.theguardian.com/us-news/2024...

NYT didn't want to report that Trump talked about Arnold Palmer's huge penis at a public event. leisureguy.ca/2024/05/08/n...

"... Trump Mused on His Childhood ‘Aptitude for Music’" www.nytimes.com/2025/03/19/a... "... ‘Don’t Worry, Maggie’s Friendly To Us’" www.mediaite.com/news/cassidy... "The Nazi campaign against so-called ‘degenerate music’, ..." www.theguardian.com/music/2014/n... Trump praised Hitler.

"What Are the Politics of Elon Musk? It's Complicated." www.nytimes.com/2022/12/10/b... NYT was dead wrong in suggesting Biden had Parkinson's. bsky.app/profile/jawb... www.wionews.com/world/elon-m...

we're right, tho

Why do you guys circle the wagons for each other like this still after all that’s happened?

😏

As a boomer I will give it to you and then complain you have it.

'bout sums it up...

Fuck the New York Times!

@meanrepeater.bsky.social

Nailed it!

No lies detected

me reading the quote-skeets and replies bsky.app/profile/keit...

This was clearly written by @ericlipton.nytimes.com

And people on OnlyFans don't care what the president's next move is, as long as she's got big tits.

I am in this picture, sad.

The people love AI slop!

Now do what's left of Washington Post readership.

i do! so far he hasn’t done it with the news section, at least, but i’d much prefer he just stayed out altogether. i also post on all of these platforms, though mostly bluesky these days.

I guess you would consider it unprofessional to do anything you would see as "resisting"

I’ll accept hyperbole in service of a gag but the Times does do craven stuff like this: bsky.app/profile/dbra...

fedora is doing good for me (it’s my first distro)

I gave up finding actually-smaller-than-Ubuntu distros that can use vmtools to set their window size correctly, and Ubuntu often breaks updates if you get to them late, so I just use Ubuntu LTS releases. Also, it's "People who blame The Washington Post" erasure!

Mastodon is the Gen X of platforms and therefore missing from this list.
