The little league actually, really called the cops on this kid and kicked him out of the league for being too good.

literally this comic except he apparently lives in Czechia instead of Nebraska

I'm going to be testing the structural integrity of the Magic Room in Norwood this Saturday, come say hi!

WHAT

there's gonna be a guy who does the sound check for the first livestreamed state execution. they'll probably have someone stand where the guy is gonna be shot to death by the state so that they can make sure the lighting, color, and framing is "correct" when people watch a man die.

bandcamp fridays remind me just how many musicians and bands and albums exist in my own little circle of friends and acquaintances and it's humbling when I realise just how much music there really is. I will never be able to keep up

The Brazilian Portuguese commentary on that Tyler Loop field goal for the Ravens is exactly what everyone needs to hear right now

PURE CINEMA.

The far right loves the U.S. like stalkers “love” their victims. They love an ideal in their heads—in this case, white and 19th century—and want to kill their love interest when they refuse to be that ideal.

We know it's your birthday, you opened your present after breakfast. What do you mean? Of course you opened your present, we all saw it, you got that sweater you're wearing. How could you have had that sweater for years if we all saw you get it this morning, why are you being this way?

I just honestly can't get over that Save Women Sports, an anti-trans group could only find five trans athletes competing K through 12. Five. The NCAA president testified a year and a half ago or so that there were less than 10 college level trans athletes. What the fuck are we doing, people

WHAT IS A WOMAN? Here's an answer for Democrats who should know better and keep taking the fuckin bait re: trans women in sports: espiers.medium.com/the-correct-...

It brings me to tears to see people fighting for our civilization amidst *gestures at everything*

The thing about this that really sucks is in many places, 60 dBA is the municipal noise limit. I would bet they spent enough money to get to 59.5 dBA at the property line and not s penny more.

Nothing but respect for Dolly in this 1977 interview. Barbara Walters: “Do you ever feel like you’re a joke and people are laughing at you?” Dolly: “I know they make fun of me. But actually the joke is the public. I know exactly what I’m doing and I can change it anytime.”

This is the letter kids got at the end of Dolly’s Imagination Library. I defy you to read this and not cry.

Some people get mad at me On Here when I criticise Jeffries but i s2fg if y'all don't start realizing that politicians aren't your friends, & rather are your recalcitrant & often feckless employees whose jobs are to operate levers of power and who need to be held to account, we're gonna get nowhere.

I can’t stop thinking about how the kids have lost partying.

Reform UK's Richard Tice says the UK should learn from the Middle East and install desalination plants around the UK. The same party that calls wind turbines abominable eyesores that must be cleared from our horizons, wants to spread these across our coasts instead

This whole thread is worth your time, re: the Arday tragedy and Trojan horse propaganda, but this is the clincher: don't be a fucking mark.

AI is the aesthetic of fascism.

It really is quite funny how the people who insisted for years that leftists needed to be pragmatic and meet voters where they are have planted their flag in support of Israel and data centers, two of the most unpopular stances in the country

You stupid motherfuckers

“Culture of impunity” is right. The demand is to never hold public figures accountable for wrongdoing, not even verbally when they’re already beyond the reach of human accountability and won’t hear the criticisms and jokes. The legacy must be sanitized, or current elites might feel less impunity.

"Automobiles represent the dominance of private property over public space" seems like a sentence I should have heard decades ago because now that I have, it just seems incredibly obvious that is what they are.

Alarming story that confirms my own reporting along similar lines: Dan Moraff, the political strategist who plucked Graham Platner out of obscurity to run for senate and barely vetted him, was barred from Rep. Summer Lee’s 2022 campaign after three complaints of sexual misconduct.

Lemme explain what the words BELIEVE WOMEN should mean. They don't mean you have to believe women no matter what. They do mean that you have to treat women as a source the same way you'd treat a man.

if you only looked at the use of “working class” by people who opine on the democratic party’s “need to win back the working class” you would never suspect that every historically feminized profession is working-class

I truly fucked up not doing my due diligence on Platner before offering high praise for his communication skills. Enough was out there at the time that I should have been more cautious. Especially because I met adventurer dudes like him reporting in Iraq. Deep respect to all who got it right. 1/2

Heartbreaking hearing that the woman who Platner raped was hesitant to come forward because she agreed with his politics and didn’t want to damage the movement. If you didn’t already realize, this sort of thing happens a lot you just don’t usually hear about it

People who make excuses for a rapist they have a parasocial attachment to will definitely do the same for other men in activist spaces or in their personal lives 🧵

look i'm not saying Schoenberg was autistic, i'm just saying the guy who said "you have to use one of each note before repeating any" seems like the kind of guy who would sort his M&Ms by color
