Some Guy 🦕🦖

Chicchai Ossan, a balding middle-aged man with a beer belly, is the popular unofficial mascot of Amagasaki City.

Urameshi Boy is a ghost rapper who appears out of nowhere whenever someone feels resentful, and he does an upbeat rap to make them lighten up. (He’s one of many characters available for licensing from Studio Nugget.)

Hey @jamesgunn.bsky.social, a quick share could go a long way towards bringing joy to some underprivileged girls this month!

People who work or trade in the stock market generally speaking are not smart people and are *very* easily susceptible to hype even when historically it leads to literally nothing.

NASA isn't why the US doesn't have universal healthcare, or a social safety net. The US doesn't have those things because politicians with the power to provide them choose specifically not to (with varying levels of support from voters). Enthusiasm for human spaceflight doesn't drive that choice.

The biggest story in the world right now is that the president of the United States is a demented old man who takes pleasure in torturing and killing people and is committing crimes with impunity. And yet most legacy media outlets are too cowardly to tell it like it is.

Putin is the puppet master behind ALL OF IT and has been for a very long time. Trump is just a useful idiot, his greed, vanity and ego are easily manipulated and his stupidity means he’ll never know he’s been played.

53 years ago today, the last U.S. combat troops left South Vietnam, ending America’s direct role in the Vietnam War. I remember seeing this anti-war PSA back then. Its message is sadly still very relevant today as Trump drags us into another unpopular war.

Every corrupt politician in the USA is doing insider trading RIGHT NOW to make millions of dollars off the bombing of children. This is sadly an evergreen post.

NEW: This new report, from BBC, is the best takedown of the insanity of Trump you will see anywhere. Calm, coherent and repeating only Trump’s own words. Devastating. Brilliant work once again from Roz Atkins. (🎥 BBC News)

I wonder if they’re waiting and watching the numbers of the Muppet Show special and all other Muppet stuff, to see if the success of the show was it on its own (awesome) merits or as a result of social media hype stoking. Best advice I can give if you want more Muppets: Watch Muppets, a lot.

I know it’s a nothing question, but do we think that semi-literate orange pedo protector gets AI to write his BS Truth Social posts? They’re brain sharts for sure, but far more ordered than the effluence that comes out of his mouth & I can’t imagine he has someone do it for him at the wee hours.

We hope that’s the good news and that the world’s oldest Make-a-Wish kid, orange, entitled, pedo protector, President bone spurs doesn’t find a way to lie and cheat himself into a third term.

I seriously never want to hear anything about disruptors and disruption again. The people that own these companies spout word salads in the hopes that someone actually thinks they’re smart…they’re not by the way.

He misspoke, he meant ‘a new guilded age’. Where the President is and protects pedophiles, and is prepared to let a school of children die to distract from that.

And there’s the endgame. The billionaire class, the Epstein class see us as lesser than them. We’re a means to an end, but ultimately they’d prefer we all die and leave the world to them and their tech.

And the galaxy far far away is a better place for it.

How is this a win for anyone? Chinese racks are now the exact same price as US ones. The customer has to pay more, that cost gets pushed across to customer after customer. It’s inflation. Tariffs are a cancer.

Sorry to get radical but I don’t think it’s my job or yours to embrace, accept, understand - and certainly not to use - the thing being sold to us as AI. I don’t like any part of it, so I won’t. I’m missing out? Good, that’s what I want. You’re worried about me missing out? That’s fuckin weird, man.

These two women are suing Andrew Tate, alleging he raped them. Here they visit the social media companies that created Tate. Please share. *one voice altered to disguise identity

Well, that’s in admission of election interference.

Crockett: "The US is falling apart, partially bc he's allowing for killings in the street, but also bc we have a 34 count convicted felon being shielded from any type of accountability as it relates to a child sex trafficking ring. I don't understand why we're pretending any of this is normal."

Fantasia is a literal masterpiece of art. But, Raya deserves so much more praise and awareness than I believe it gets.

go off jack white

Name them shame them

A reminder, there is no culture war. There is a (less and less cold) class war. But, there’s more of us than there are of them and they have no actual discernible skills beyond having ‘on paper’ wealth. THEY NEED US, but we don’t need them.

Jeffrey Bezos is destroying the Washington Post for the same reason Musk destroyed Twitter and Ellison is destroying CBS—oligarchs oppose the free press when if it threatens their wealth and power. They don’t want normal people to see what is happening in America.

It was perfect. Literal tears of joy. #TheMuppetShow

Oh he’s not saving himself any humiliation, that man is more transparent than jellyfish. Everything he touches dies and he takes down everything in his orbit as it does…except sadly himself (Russia protects him from consequences).

All while highly illegal acts by the head of the government go by with zero consequences.

The Epstein Files must be life endingly bad for Trump and his pals or the right kind of leverage for his handlers. Just wondering, Dems or other nations of the world with access, now would be a good time to leak them.

The arrests of journalists Don Lemon and Georgia Fort are a test for every MSM member with a platform. If you are not voicing your outrage at this blatant violation of the First Amendment, you are utterly discredited as a journalist.

This is how the rest of the world now sees The United States under Trump.

With the world in a very shitty place all round, Wonder Man was just what I needed. Fun, heartfelt and meaningful. With oh so much chemistry and charisma. Even if you’re jaded by the whole MCU thing, it’s worth checking this gem out.

He’s a moron, a frail, weak, childish, bigoted, incurious moron with no empathy, full of greed, malignant narcissism, dementia and will always put himself above the people he was sworn in to serve.

"They say they're coming to save us from some evil? They're talking about our neighbors who take care of us ... Alex was murdered while he was helping. Mr Rogers said look for the helpers, & right now the helpers have a target on our forehead ... Mr Rogers would be here right now too, so I'm here."

@teamlabouruk.bsky.social this past few weeks should be a massive wake up call. Stop trying to cosy up to that pedophile protector. Stand up to the bully, it’s the only way. Canada and the EU are the future, as long as Dementia Don is around the US is done.

All of this, all of it is entirely the fault of one man. One man who’ll never take responsibility.

Reminder: The Epstein files aren’t delayed. A law is being broken. We’re still missing 99%.

"If I create enough noise, my friends can get away." These kids have more courage than our elected reps or any of the rest of us.

10/10 no notes

As the last week or so have proven, he has no cards. He’s a flailing would be Mafia Don dictator, who has singled handedly turned the US from one of the hottest countries in the world to one colder than the current temperatures at Greenland.

The lesson is that the US is currently the weakest it’s ever been and the more of a tough guy strong man Trump tries to be, the weaker he appears.
