This is a silly take.

This is not a good social trend if it is true. Just argh.

I feel this all the time on YouTube. I know there's great content (an endless amount, more than consumable in one lifetime) but the decision paralysis is real. Wasted hours watching one minute of this, 2 minutes of that. I loved the feeling of buying an album or DVD and bringing that home to watch.

Happy St. Patrick's Day, New York.

america could be such a cool fucking place if we’d just let it be

I didn't know that there were people who WANTED to grow up to be Joo Dee.

I hope this never happens, but one not crazy scenario is if this keeps on happening, someone is gonna shoot a real fed/ICE guy because they thought it was a criminal and then get acquitted on self defense by the jury. Only then might ICE actually change their whole absurd thuggish attitude

we are seeing GOP cope of historic pace and proportion

Fuck off Mikey. And pronounce Zohran's name correctly.

Shame him.

I hope at least some of the doomers take a step back from the ledge after tonight.

F this shit.

The Law & Order president is no law and no order. Basically.

My worry is less about some ironclad autocracy taking hold in the US. I'm more worried about something like "The Troubles" taking hold over a generation and EVERYONE loses and suffers. Including the thugs. They just don't have the mental capacity to think about consequences and future regret.

I honestly don’t think 90% of the current administration knows anything substantive about the history of the revolutionary era. Or cares.

When I explain that boycotting an election over an issue has never once forced a politician to embrace that issue, I'm not "scolding people to vote." I'm explaining reality. Feel free to sit on your ass! Just don't pretend that your lazy apathy is somehow going to advance your agenda.

i was all in on mamdani until i found out that he called his dad's cousin his "aunt" instead of using the term we all know and love, "cousin once removed"

Ah yes. All the journalists at my former employer apparently go around introducing their dad’s cousin to everyone as “my first cousin once removed Lydia” rather than “Auntie so-and-so”. What a farce of journalism.

What pushback? An “aunt” who’s a cousin of his dad? How is this a flub or a lie? I can’t believe my former employer is now amplifying crap like this.

Honestly at some point you have to start doing psyops with these people: Have Obama announce that he will seek a third term tomorrow. Then watch all the con law “scholars” and Fix News MELT DOWN trying to explain why he can’t but Trump can. (It’s like Newsom taking over his social media persona)

Rebuild the White House.

Not enough of you believe me right now, but "Rebuild The White House" is going to become one of the most popular slogans in American political history

There’s 1,000 times more chatter about the Maine senate race in a year than about Maine’s ballot measure in 3 weeks that’d bring voter ID and crack down on mail voting… maybe let’s start there??? boltsmag.org/maine-questi...

Whoever did the data "analysis" and #dataViz for this piece should be embarrassed. This is beyond naive empiricism; it's wrong in so many ways that it'd take an entire article to explain them. I have better things to do, but this type of intellectually vacuous nonsense must be debunked.

👇🏻👇🏻 I would even argue that even if they DID vote for this and now have had a change of heart to the point where they’re fucking protesting then I say welcome to the giant Fuck Trump tent party and happy hour is 2-5 weekdays

We’re gonna be entering a golden age of leaks.

This is dark. But also, this display of solidarity on the part of the pentagon press corps should be a model for dealing with the regime

THE DNC AND ITS OFFICERS DO NOT ENDORSE IN PRIMARY ELECTIONS —PERIOD! THE DNC IS NOT FOR— OR— AGAINST YOUR FAVORITE CANDIDATE. WE SUPPORT THE DEMOCRATIC NOMINEES CHOSEN BY VOTERS. WE FOCUS ONLY ON BEATING REPUBLICANS SO GOVERNMENT WORKS FOR US. THANKS FOR YOUR ATTENTION TO THIS MATTER!

We are thrilled to announce that our NEW Large Language Model will be released on 11.18.25.

I really don't understand people's reality these days. If any of these places are 'war zones', why haven't all the airlines cancelled their flights going in and out of these places?

For 26 but especially 2028 it's time for Democrats to make clear that the current Supreme Court will have to be reformed (expanded in number, reformed in structure) to allow popular govt to continue in the United States. Not so much a litmus test as precondition for any other promise to be credible.

Seems bad for our society when you can’t make racist terrorists the villains

The whole thing is a nefarious clown show. With no disrespect to clowns.

Dutch late night TV take on Disney trashing the first amendment by pulling Jimmy Kimmel to appease a thin-skinned autocrat

I would love to be part of the conversation on MSNBC related to the Kimmel story and it's chilling effects on first amendment, but unfortunately I was terminated by MSNBC for stating that "hateful thoughts lead to hateful words which lead to hateful actions".

Becoming increasingly clear we’re gonna have to build a parallel infrastructure for all the media we really love. The reason all of this is happening under the color of law is hyperconsolidation, dissent being traded straight up for merger approval, or fear of harassment.

WGA Statement on ABC’s Decision to Pull Jimmy Kimmel Live!

A free and democratic society cannot silence comedians because the President doesn’t like what they say. This is an attack on free speech and cannot be allowed to stand. All elected officials need to speak up and push back on this undemocratic act.

I hate to say it, but it turns our Republicans were right. There is a lamestream media. They're just wrong on why the media is so lame.

Anyone proposing that an official be allowed to revoke the passport of a citizen for criticizing *this* country would be rightly regarded as batshit insane and deeply hostile to this country's laws and traditions. Proposing that they can do that if we criticize some *other* country? Fuck. That.

This admin is so incompetent and so vile.
