"Somebody will surely stop this" says society based on sloughing off responsibility and accountability at any opportunity.

David Quinn now amplifying scientific racists with a dash of his own bigotry. (Needless to say there are a ton of reasons for the outcome of said chart that Quinn is too stupid to anticipate.)

1. Lose election 2. Assume Trump will steal election for him 3. Trump is flailing around and failing to steal his own election 4. Oh shit oh fuck

Takei vs Shatner - somehow it seems right.

The Billionaire Class is deranged www.semafor.com/article/10/2...

When Bolsonaro redux looked inevitable a lot of Americans commented that at least it showed they weren't uniquely mad, politically speaking. This doesn't prove they are, but it does show they still need to learn the game as it is currently is "team fascist vs team everyone else."

I was having conversations with journalists just a few months ago about whether democracy was doomed. Look at this year: Orban defeated. Vukic defeated. Bolsonaro Jr defeated. Trump heading to likely defeat in midterms. That’s the beauty of democracy. Voters can respond. Don’t count it out yet.

FUCKING HELL!!! #serbia

Famously honest Elon Musk.

Listened to a young French protester on the news last night talking about how worried he was about the rise of Le Pen, then declaring he was for LFI, the one party guaranteed to lose massively to them.

HAHAHAHAHAAAAAA!!!!

In addition to everything Juan Linz said, the best thing about parliamentary systems is that if an obviously stupid and insane person somehow becomes PM they can be quickly removed before the damage they do becomes irreversible.

Hot take -Mass Effect worked very well as a trilogy with a story that had a natural conclusion and should have ended at that point. Any sequel was going to suffer from the challenge of what to do next, to which there was never a satisfactory answer.

"As an ignorant, bigoted moron myself I was looking forward to seeing one occupy the White House. I will learn nothing from my disillusionment."

On the one hand I'd never trust anything from the Young Turks but on the other of course Graham was gay.

Everyone involved with implementing this policy, from Rubio on down, should be imprisoned for years.

Charge the people who made the report with malicious wasting of police time.

"Surrender to despair preemptively because hope is cringe, and remember to like, rate and subscribe."

"Sally Rooney is not a terrorist, she's just someone who asked her publisher and their banks to send money to a violent protest group from the safety of another country to burnish her radical cred and pose as a martyr when they inevitably said no."

A decision made by a ketamine addled billionaire being able to cut the knees out from an allied country is a pretty clear sign of oligarchy and just one of many reasons "grinding Elon Musk into the dirt and ensuring he dies penniless in a cage" must be a core Democratic policy going forward.

Imagine being the kind of credulous toe suck that would write this slop - www.politico.com/news/2026/10...

I don't have several people on a full time payroll to determine my diet and exercise routine, as well as the degree to which I can be dehydrated to look maximally jacked for my shirtless scene in a movie and/or scheduled photoshoot.

NEW: Lindsay Graham and Jim Clyburn were under FBI investigation for bribery. Then Trump dismantled the DOJ & FBI public corruption units. The investigation died. We unearthed it: www.propublica.org/article/nava...

Separatism was always going to lose, but what's interesting is the results of the other nine ballot questions and what kind of fuckery Smith will use them to justify

Paging @dsquareddigest.bsky.social

Now do the tube.

The GOP rushing to protect gun manufacturers every time this happens is one of the phenomenon that made me realise they weren't just not my cup of tea politically, or even just unpleasant - they're a profoundly evil and morally degenerate party.

It's a measure of how worthless the American press is that they're still quoting Cheung instead of just refusing to seek comment from him on account of his blatant unprofessional assholery.

One would be good and the other would be bad because one cause is good and the other is bad. We are not in the realm of procedural justice concerns anymore, liberalism is not obligated to be neutral on the question of its own existence.

Rubio is lying of course, and like every other administration official we should presume that he's lying at all times.

This kid is a racist who works for racists and should be subject to public scorn and shunning until he atones.

JD Vance is a racist and it needs to be said in terms as straightforward as that.

Call me a pessimist but no, I do not think that the presence of racism in the racism party is going to threaten their racist leader who has built his career on appealing to racists.

It's Dune Messiah dork. YA FUCKIN THINK?

This killed people. Prosecute Musk for first degree murder.

My man has big Samuel Beckett energy.

I think it is good and right that this fascist apparatchik is being publicly humiliated and I hope that the rest of her life is utterly miserable.

That's mighty big talk for the front man of the fourth best mediocre British pub rock revival band of the 90s.

No, the fact that Trump surrounds himself with women who routinely mutilate themselves into hideous grotesques to try and remain attractive to the ageing rich scumbags they've married is pretty central to the political raptors of our age.

Once again we're getting a "Musk insisted on putting lots of stupid shit in the car because he's an idiot" product and the stock is going up because the financial class are reprehensible morons.

Every time this has happened and there has been any whiff of political action to prevent it the Republicans have rushed to defend the gun lobby and issued Rube Goldberg counter proposals, without any real political cost. A sign of a morally degenerate society.

She's toast

I can see the Temu Ulrike Meinhoff discourse is already heading to entirely new levels of stupid and it's not even been 48 hours - www.irishtimes.com/opinion/lett...

This is why I'm not a free speech absolutist. Writing something this absurd should be subject to some kind of legal sanction. Not prison, but maybe some kind of permanent bureaucratic recognition that you are a bad faith actor.

On the one hand I'm glad we're not taking another step towards barbarism, on the other I want the depravity to be impossible to ignore.

Put them all in jail and expropriate all their assets.
