It really knocks you on your ass when you realize the problem is that the fascists are largely made up of a bunch of grown men in arrested development who spend their adult lives playing pretend and making everyone miserable as they LARP through the world.

Unconscionable to be on “X” at this point. Just a cesspit. Except for banking; I do my banking there & don’t see a problem.

There are so, so many verified diaries of white Union soldiers at the beginning of the war saying "I don't know about this, I condemn the deplorable violence" and then they get down there and see slavery with their own eyes and immediately go "John Brown was right we gotta kill these motherfuckers"

Aaron Swartz was hounded and persecuted by overzealous prosecutors for a mass JSTOR download until he committed suicide. Sam Altman says that he deserves to violate copyright law in perpetuity because otherwise he can't make a fortune from a large language model. We are in the wrong timeline.

Hey, I’m just asking questions. Ignorant questions, bigoted questions, questions that have been repeatedly answered for many years. Sorry, but I’m not listening to answers right now; I’m far too busy asking questions. It’s called being intellectually curious.

Holy shit I did not know this Incredible insight into Western Higher Education, going back to Oxford and Cambridge and still seen today from @harikondabolu.bsky.social

I have never seen such a blue wave in voter registration here in Utah like this cycle in 2026: Net Diff. in DEM - REP new active voters: 🔴2016 +34K R 🔴2018 +13K R 🔴2020 +97K R 🔴2022 +34K R 🔴2024 +21K R 🔵2026 +19K D Net (DEM+UNA) - REP 🟣2026 +35K By either measure, 2026 is totally unparalleled

I work hard at my art but I don't work near as hard as Beth Howland recording "Getting Married Today" for the Company cast album in 1970 does at hers

And here's the problem: the Mormon Church allows abortion under the common exceptions ... but lots of individual Mormons do not. Idaho's laws are stricter than the church because voters are stricter than the church (and, by their own reasoning, God).

Breaking Bad this, The Wire that, Battlestar Galactica makes the list at #37!! So say we all!!

heck of a job, Google

I keep suggesting The Wreck of the Edmund Fitzgerald at karaoke and no one is as into maritime disaster songs as I am, I guess.

I don't think people really understand the psychic impact of knowing that multiple times a day every day your friends, family, coworkers, neighbors, and everyone who could ever have any power over you is being flooded with agitprop designed to make them hate you

Amanda’s point here is both critical and hopeful: Fascism, by its nature, will eventually fail, because it selects for incompetence. www.tiktok.com/t/ZTUkuthnM/

Everyone has forgotten you can legally just reply with “losersayswhat”.

Dreamed last night of a friend who passed nearly 20 years ago. He had wrinkles around his eyes that he never got in this life. I cried in the dream. Grief is always there, isn’t it?

I don’t know what a Hasan Piker is and at this point I’m too afraid to ask.

The 19‐old-wife is being forced to fight the entire apparatus of the United States Navy, while caring for a toddler and a baby, in the wake of her 19-year-old husband's mental health crisis. 19.

I have some big, personal news

Art should make you feel like you're being chased by a wolf. If it doesn't make you feel that way it's not art. "What if it feels like being chased by a leopard?" then it's not art. It has to be a wolf.

Ha!! Wordle 1,882 4/6 ⬜⬜⬜⬜🟩 ⬜⬜⬜⬜🟩 ⬜⬜⬜⬜🟩 🟩🟩🟩🟩🟩

Just smoked a 550i and he was *shocked*. Big stare at the light. 😇

A caucus of violent, drunk ex-husbands controls three branches of government and both chambers of Congress.

I don’t believe you 😘

Not only did they absolutely beg for this, they made it so that “merit” was synonymous with being white so now you’re stuck with precisely the kind of moron who believes that. www.politico.com/news/magazin...

We had a little whiteboard in the back room of the grocery I used to work at. For months my coworkers would write song lyrics and little jokes on it. My manager hated my ass so the day after I took a turn there was a big notice saying THIS BOARD FOR OFFICIAL USE ONLY

I want to hear about the weirdest/dumbest time you got into trouble at work. Me? I once released a product on time. Anyway, it’s been a hell of a week at sea, sir. 🫡

Bluesky knew the strait of Hormuz, Graham Platner, and AIPAC democrats were all cooked months before the experts did. Meanwhile Twitter was convinced Spencer Pratt would win and the Odyssey would bomb. Which site is the not-real-life echo chamber again?

Debate: I loved The Odyssey, but have thoughts about the casting of Zendaya as Athena when warrior/giant Charlize was right there, a perfect, gray-eyed Pallas Athena. What if Zendaya’s Athena was perhaps the persistence of the priestess at Troy—standing in for Athena in Odyssey’s mind?

I et this post with a tuna salad sandwich, both were delicious.

Leslie Mann is stunning. Paul Rudd is somehow even better looking than you can imagine. Padma Lakshmi? Other worldly.

The toxic influencer who has made "hyper-masculinity" his brand was arresting wearing Doris Day clam-digger slacks and a kicky purple blouse.

Whatever could be said about that claim when he made it in 1962, it soon became undeniable that government vaccine research, distribution, and mandates are objectively among the greatest achievements of civilization. Claiming otherwise is embarrassing, it's like saying you don't wash your hands.

What do you mean it’s only halfway through July?? I still have to get through AUGUST??

Gender studies does a far better job of explaining the Trump administration than traditional political science, or economics for that matter

abolish this violent gang and prosecute every member

Utah Change in Active Voters by Party 2026 YTD 🔵DEM +9,582 🟣UNA +5,665 🔴REP -2,207 Beyond new voters, local Democratic caucuses in March likely spurred Unaffiliated and Republican voters to switch their registration. Something is definitely happening here in Utah. This is unlike any other year.
