Fond of me lobster, ain't ye

Imagine trying and failing to make Tilly Norwood happen for 2 years and AI Rumpelstiltskin blows up in 5 seconds.

Pardon my French but holy fucking shitballs apnews.com/article/chri...

The most egregious thing Kash Patel has done is convincing himself he deserves to be FBI director.

Has anyone tried explaining to the temporarily inconvenienced billionaires that taxing the absolute shit out of existing billionaires would actually make it more likely we create new billionaires?

Hey @bsky.app - what happened to Wario64??????

Let me be blunt: Democrats should gerrymander the ever living shit out of every state where we have unified control of government. If we need to gerrymander our way to electing a Congress that will ban gerrymandering, then we should fucking do it. open.substack.com/pub/santiago...

Expecting people to either be homeless or hate every day is an insane way to run a society.

Mamdani charmed Trump so hard he was like you can call me whatever you want *wink*

The funniest thing about Kimmel is that I assumed he said something negative about Charlie Kirk when they tried to get him kicked off TV.

Remember when Dan Quail spelled potato wrong and people thought he was a fucking idiot for like 20 years?

Post a team you would send instead of Patel and Bongino.

Hey @wario64.bsky.social, I preordered a switch 2 from Target and it took like a week to get to me. Since it took so long they sent me a free $50 eShop code.

MAGA went from "Kamala will send your children to war" to "thank goodness dear leader bypassed Congress" so fucking fast.

This Biden cancer announcement illustrates really well how some people are fully infected by Trump's hate machine. Dude with multiple divorces, felonies, rape accusations, impeachments, told you to hate Joe Biden as a human and you fully absorbed that and let it just become part of you. Crazy shit.

Movie you’ve watched more than six times using gifs. (“Hard mode” no Star Wars, Star Trek, or LOTR)

How little do tariffs impact someone like Donald Trump? He doesn't even know what groceries are.

You know, MTG is right, the truth is not subjective. Trump is objectively a deranged racist sociopath.

There's an exhausting thing in my life where extended family thinks "ceasefire talks between Moscow and Washington" are normal even though Moscow and Washington are not at war with each other.

I love coming here because I get much deeper views on all things politically left, but I hate coming here because I also get deeper conversation and ideation around the insanity happening right now on the political right and it's legitimately terrifying.

Domination by Developmental Incapacitation: Labor Power and the Capabilities Approach, or, How the Cogless Miners Sieze the Means of Transformation to Usher in an Era of Freedom and Abundant Energon. In this essay I will ...

They're removing pages from the White House site like me editing the deck 5 minutes before a partner meeting.

Career Republicans must be pretty upset that Donald "inject bleach into the body" Trump was the first one to figure out you can just do whatever you want and nobody will stop you.

1/🧵 Judges across ideological lines are ruling against Trump at strikingly similar rates (84% liberal, 86% centrist, 82% conservative). This isn't partisan opposition to Trump—it's the judiciary functioning as intended by cutting across partisan lines to uphold the Constitution.

Typed a bunch of stuff and realized I was getting way too far down the doom hole. Checks and balances will hold. These guys are so braindead it honestly wouldn't take a lot to stop them, Dems just need to actually do it.

@schumer.senate.gov dude

Cool so what happens if GOP attach a national abortion ban to a CR? You'll vote for that too? 🚮

A YES on cloture is a YES for the bill. Do not let anyone play games with you.

@schumer.senate.gov

Dear @schumer.senate.gov, this cartoon hippo on bluesky is smarter than you.

New Yorkers: Call Sen. Gillibrand’s office to vote NO on cloture and NO on the Republican Spending Bill. They vote in the morning. ☎️: (202) 224-4451

Bruv he is not kidding.

Elon: Calling everyone you don't like a Nazi is so tired, I'm not a Nazi.

Broooo what the fuuuuuuck

Call me paranoid but it feels like the government shouldn't be able to detain and deport legal residents for saying stuff they don't like. There should be a law or something for that. Anyway, I got kids to feed, long live the king.

the American consumer is interested in absorbing zero pain. the Canadian consumer has already smeared themselves with the fat of a freshly killed bear and made an offering of blood for luck in the coming battle

Hesgeth looks like Phoenix Wright if he was an evil piece of shit.

I fear Democrats' inaction and the pendulum. If we make it to 2028 without a dictator and Dems make it back in, they will need to fortify the system heavily to avoid another autocrat and even harder swing to the right 4 years later.

I have semi-reasonable extended family who definitely voted for Trump so I often think about how to explain my concerns to them in a way they'll absorb, and gosh it feels weird that "he could declare martial law and cancel elections" is now something I feel comfortable rationally explaining.

It's still (befuddling? delightful? horrifying?) to me to watch men with enough wealth to do anything they want for every minute of the rest of their lives end up being the absolutely biggest public cringelords operating on levels of desperation, panic and humiliation that we can't even conceive.

The political equivalent of post-nut clarity.
