I think people intuitively understand that democratic candidates tossing trans kids to the wolves is not only morally repugnant but also politically ineffective, otherwise they wouldn't freak out every time someone said they weren't voting for a democrat who did this

Guillermo Del Toro dropping another one liner that’s exactly how I feel about AI slop, the “punishment” is built in

I did “The Wicker Devils” double feature at the cinema. my god does this show the broad spectrum of horny art. The Devils was a carnal crocodile nightmare and Wicker is a funny lil basket of lube and roses. we must have more horny art.

Vance says he's "disgusted" with the Ohio race. To be clear, he's not "disgusted" Ramaswamy is siding with a woman who let her husband rape her 12-year-old daughter and pushing a lie so bad even National Review called him out. No, no. He's "disgusted" that some Republicans objected to the ad.

That unsounded ocean you gasp in, is Life; those sharks, your foes; those spades, your friends

You Can See Everything is wonderful. My favorite documentary made in the last twenty years. It's beautiful and strange, much like Nathan.

if i was an establishment dem i'd love trump's arbitrary renaming of things. undoing those will buy months of coasting

they can't act on their own, they cannot go rogue. they are computer programs that do what they are programmed to do. they're as responsible for their actions as a grenade is for exploding after somebody pulls the pin

ME: Agh, I forgot a gift for my sister's shower! MY WIFE, THE WITCH OF THE FENS: Feed her this paste ground of an unfledged hatchling dead below his nest. Her womb inside her will blacken and warp, and never again a child have she. ME: You never validate my feelings instead of offer witch solutions…

democrats will throw you under the bus and then get mad at you for not being on the bus

Nathan Fielder every time they cut back to him in You Can See Everything

elon will look untouchable right up until he doesn't anymore and western governments should accelerate that day as quickly as possible

Coming soon to a software product near you.

Once again, @propublica.org is doing the work that would normally be done by the government

We need to be less hysterical about potential AMOC collapse in 2100 and way more hysterical about the actual mega El Niño in 2027.

🔥 @katiephang.bsky.social (With Deniro behind her): “I’m suing A.G. Todd Blanche — Trump’s cosplaying personal lawyer — for the unredacted Epstein files… as an independent journo 🗣️ I don’t have a corporate oligarch telling me what to say… Trump has been violating federal law every day.”

Huh.

you guys broke watergate

Outraged by the Jan. 6 Capitol riot, a wilderness survival trainer spent years undercover climbing the ranks of right-wing militias. He didn’t tell police or the FBI. He didn’t tell family or friends. The one person he told was a ProPublica reporter. (Published Jan. 2025)

Wtaf is this question my university just asked me about my project?

Many of the babies’ autopsy reports were clear: Vitamin K deficiency was the immediate cause of death, or contributed to it. The reports also included details about parents refusing the vitamin K shot, a long-standard injection, for their newborns. (Published May)

Five cops in Indianapolis were just criminally charged with abusing Flock to spy on their ex-wives, their wives' ex-partners and women they met on duty. Audit was triggered by us at the @washingtonpost.com, the prosecutor said. From last month: wapo.st/4yfNHng

I found the ultimate enshittification scheme: My cellphone carrier Xfinity Mobile is suddenly now allowing 30+ spam calls to my cell phone, and is offering a spam-call filter…for an extra fee. They are literally making a business out of enshittifying basic cellphone service.

A Philadelphia family just bought their first home with a $10,000 first-time homebuyer grant funded by a group of Quakers It’s part of the congregation’s racial justice plan to redistribute wealth to Black residents in the Germantown area as a form of reparations

Big news: The family of Tierra Walker, who died after she couldn't get an abortion, is suing a slate of Texas actors in state court, including AG Ken Paxton. They say the state ban is unconstitutional. This is the first suit of its kind. 19thnews.org/2026/09/texa...

evergreen tweet from 2024

The president is just such a stupid asshole. I know we try to ascribe motives to this guy but he’s at the end of the day, when the story is written, just a dumdum idiot with a tiny brain that don’t work so good.

we are now literally inside the movie

we’re living inside the movie we made

In states with abortion bans, medical providers are hesitating or flat-out refusing to terminate ectopic pregnancies, lawsuits allege. “I genuinely thought I was going to die,” said Kyleigh Thurman, who couldn’t get care in Texas.

Ummm attention Hakeem Jeffries, "people on the other side of the aisle". Those people are elected politicians in Congress. Jared Kushner is not one of those. You are making this much worse for you.

Watching Rosewood (1997) which I somehow missed until now. I was worried this would present a sanitized picture of lynch mobs and uh, nope

Folks in Haiti talk about this. Unfortunately, it was when the US Army decided to bomb parts of Haiti during the 1917 invasion.

i don't think it was chiefly or just the inconvenience, but that they couldn't buy their way out of the safety measures and restrictions everyone else faced (they actually could, but not everyone and not every restriction)

Can you imagine being 80 and having the equivalent of a manic 14-year-old ex-girlfriend chasing you around like she’s about to kill your dog and being like “I like this whole thing, this is a good situation for me”? Anyway that’s the deal with the current President of the United States.

How do I explain to small business owners that the menu on the left is one billion times more appealing than the one on the right

NEW: Congress appropriated $1 trillion for defense this year, more than twice as much as the combined budget for agencies overseeing health, veterans affairs, education, housing, agriculture and justice. We’re setting out to report on how this public money is being spent.

Bluesky should go back to invites, continue aggressive bot bans, create a Craigslist-style marketplace (since you’re more likely to buy/get services from a educated or good person on here than any other social network), and market this place like a walled garden protected from enshittification.

The tech AI mission is to literally complete the transformation of people into economic subjects. Nothing except flesh connectors serving to move capital from space to space. And that’s only as long as there isn’t a substitute for bodies.

Anyone asking for votes or power has to commit to not only anti-corruption reform but throwing these criminals in jail. There’s no more playing around with this. No more civility bullshit. Fucking jail for the whole litany of crimes, corruption, financial, war, human rights abuses. All of it.
