Not all bots follow other bots Not everyone who follows a bot is a bot (some people pay no attention at all) BUT All bots are followed by other bots

You have to really, really, really fucking suck for your 8th grade teacher to come out and shame you like this. Damn.

House Judiciary Democrats have just released a 50-page report that pulls together years of assault allegations against Trump and his reported connections to Jeffrey Epstein. The report calls for a special counsel to investigate Trump's ties to Epstein.

Republicans, they're not like us.

democrats, in 2008: vote for us, we have the audacity to hope republicans, in 2026: vote for us, we have the audacity to make a strong pro-child-rape stand

None of us should forget this. Meta should be subjected to corporate death penalty and permanently broken up into small pieces.

World’s largest child sexual abuse society upset that America’s most notorious sexual predator published photos of them praising him. apnews.com/article/dona...

Lula winning is great for the planet, great for Brazil, and great for people who aren't revanchist assholes everywhere in the world, but let's not forget that it's also going to make some of the worst people on Earth extremely sad and mad. We should enjoy that, as a little treat.

Next Congress, if you're listening

Many of you are asking how you can help me in these final days before the election. My only ask is this: Spread the word about the threats to democracy and how we can fight back. Tell everyone to subscribe to Democracy Docket and share its content. demdock.com/4w6emld

If still debating whether Donald Trump or Elon Musk willfully crippled Ukraine's missile defense, helping to slay innocent civilians, you are a rube. If the U.S. President had no role, then an oligarch governs national security. If not, the U.S. President serves Russia. Both answers are mortifying.

How fucking DARE you say these things were not transformative for the people whose lives they affected positively. Just fuck you. I could go on & on the list of shit Biden/Harris have done to make the country better is very long.

This post 6 months ago should have ended support for Trump among Christians, but far too many of them don't mind blasphemy if it comes with a side order of racism and sexism.

Sharp decline in concern trolls explaining that Republicans can’t and won’t do Y because Y is illegal. Not sure that’s a net positive but I’ll take it.

this is beyond fucked whether you follow any SW's or not, the fact that you are even on this platform is thanks in a large part to the SW community driving traffic in the early days. SW and trans people helped Bluesky win the clone war, and the leadership has done nothing but fuck them over since.

“Departures from these practices should never be countenanced because they risk allowing prosecutors to impact national elections.” -Todd Blanche on DOJ’s 60-day rule, September 2024

If you are spouting anti Kamala Harris, telling people why she shouldn't run for president again. I'm not going to waste time or energy with you. I can already tell you fear what a leader with her intellect and capability would do for our country. And prefer to keep us in stagnant white male misery.

ultimately it's shit like this that makes the decline of birth rates and resulting demographic skewing towards old people self-reinforcing. Greedy, wealthy retired people voting to destroy the funding for public services they relied on throughout their life now that they no longer need them

drone and other jet drones, today our interceptors do not work because there is a speed limitation ‼️ What is the speed limitation of Starlinks today? Today the maximum speed is 160-161 km/h, after which, I saw it from reports, and heard, after this it cuts out, Starlink switches off completely

Meta took down the No Kings instagram; TikTok banned the Musk documentary account for supposedly violating its political posting policies. A reminder that platforms are owned by the wealthiest of people, control the means of media distribution, & put their thumbs on the democracy scale as they wish

And just yesterday: Meta restricted Brazilian president's Insta accounts during the election while "recommending the profile of challenger Senator Flavio Bolsonaro." What's it going to take people to get off Meta products? www.reuters.com/world/americ...

On the one hand, the elements of defamation against a public figure are there, and Musk's cartoonish actions would not play well with an unbribed jury. On the other hand, what are the damages? Especially when he doesn't want to justify prejudice against people seeking treatment for mental health.

You know, the thing is, I had drafted this piece a month ago, and then never published it, because I thought maybe it was too mean.

This is not "a controversial vaccine trial," it's biological warfare, conducted by European researchers on African infants. It's imperialism, racism, eugenics, and the hubris of incredibly stupid people. It's denying vaccines to newborns! In what fuckin universe is this a "vaccine trial"?

Trump's plan to disrupt the election is already underway, with troops standing menacingly at a DC ballot drop box. Under 18 U.S. Code § 592, it is illegal for armed troops to be "at any place where a general or special election is held," yet there they are.

Who you gonna believe, the lying liar or your own eyes? 👀

Trump's people are using blue curtains to hide empty seats at this evening's rally in Grand Island, Nebraska. Those accurate reports of poor turnout in Ohio and Alabama *really* got under his skin.

never the wrong time for this classic

Post Harry Potter art, I'm blocking you without hesitation. I don't care what the excuse is, don't support monsters.

I don't think Aaron should have either an official account or the position of head of trust and security, but here we are

The word "just" here serves the same function as "but" in signaling that you can ignore everything that came before it as false.

The job of separating "legitimate uses of machine learning" from "chatbots that give reductive summaries" falls on the people doing the former, not the end user. It's not my fault that a bunch of grifters grabbed on to the former as cover for the latter.

Sounds like a them problem

🚨 Roger Marshall threatened legal action to suppress an inconvenient truth. Read our response:

I don't wanna COUCH my words here: I know JD Vance, his eyeliner, and absent Ashley Moody are used to running away from people when things get tough because they care more about themselves and their billionaire buddies than the people they represent. But this is my home. /1

Would you like me to recommend some mixed drinks using urine?

Bruh, you literally JUST SAID "no fatties" and "no weirdos"

Like the scene from 'Goidfellas,' where Paulie Vario and his gang bankrupt a restaurant, and then burn it down for the insurance money. "But Killer Kamala!!!" Yeah, fuck off.

Anything that reminds people how much they hate that SOB is good

Roots!

Look having the entire roster of FBI agents leak isn't a front-page newsworthy security failure meriting front page coverage the same way having some of your emails to Anthony Weiner's wife be discovered on Anthony Weiner's laptop was
