not the most notable or monstrous thing about the monster, but it's absolutely wild how trump just openly, reflexively sympathizes with sexual assailants any time he's asked about a sex assault matter. it's genuinely fucking crazy. open fucking rapist president

You should have to smell the dead when you disinter them.

Netflix's new reality show "Wonka's Golden Ticket" uses AI Gene Wilder as its host. The beloved comedian passed away in 2016, but his voice lives on in AI form. At least Netflix didn't use AI to create the new Oompa Loompas. What do you think of this AI resurrection? Let us know in the comments 👇

Yeah it’s sure to get you cancelled bc it’s the dumbest think I’ve ever read, dipshit

dame@dame.is

my nuclear-grade AI hot take that’s sure to get me cancelled until kingdom come is that refusing to use AI at all is rapidly becoming an extremely privileged lifestyle choice that feels social justice-y while actually being the complete opposite

I hate to say it, but this is Bernie’s real legacy

If James Talarico loses next month blame it all on me. I live in New York and have nothing to do with Texas, but I have ignored his what I estimate is approximately 433 texts asking me for money. So.

It’s that fucking easy

Kansas Dem Sen. nominee Adam Hamilton on trans rights: “I don’t think we should take a small group of people and bully them, pick on them, and hurt them. I understand one thing really clearly when it comes to transgender people, and that is Jesus told me I was to love my neighbor as I love myself”

I think people intuitively understand that democratic candidates tossing trans kids to the wolves is not only morally repugnant but also politically ineffective, otherwise they wouldn't freak out every time someone said they weren't voting for a democrat who did this

I left Mormonism before I was old enough to go on a mission but the proselytizing impulse gets to me every fall when I want to tell everyone on the street that miketober AND shocktober are in the same month

I don’t know what to say beyond I hope we can all stick around and fight together to end the evil of capital punishment. I need to believe we can be better than this

Yes every woman has been harassed, many assaulted. But every woman has also experienced invisible loss from moments she avoided harassment. She felt a space becoming unsafe, so she left, while men stayed on. And in leaving, she lost: opportunities, experiences, learning, promotions, even simply fun.

I've spent a lot of years studying a lot of collapses, and the truth of the matter is that they're always mundane: mild climatic shifts that reduce crop yields, a dumbass in power who makes some terrible decisions, neglecting things that obviously matter but the will to fix them can't be summoned.

Certain kinds of smart people tend to have a "sexy apocalypse" problem when it comes to thinking about risk. E.g. skynet turning everyone in paperclips, while bad, is also *kind of cool and fun* at the same time. Where the reality is that most actual disasters are both stupid and disappointing.

I understand that humans thinking about math is Luddite behavior and humans making art is Luddite behavior and so on. But I'm not sure what I'm supposed to be doing instead. What's the non-Luddite behavior for those of us who aren't wealthy investors?

It's weird that so many of you are always apologizing to some cool guy you're imagining from 15 years ago before you can say Macklemore is good and cool. That cool guy is probably dead. He was having a hard time. You are free.

anyone know a good website where some small-potatoes online pundits can tell me what’s good for my particular marginalized community in a completely condescending way.

BREAKING: 20+ Republican leaders just endorsed our campaign for US Senate. We’re bringing Texans together onto one team to take power back for working people. Because the real fight in this country isn't left versus right — it's top versus bottom.

I’ve spent most of my adult life living around red-ass country people, and they generally respect you when you stand on principle. But they’ll shred you if you’re a dissembling phony

Realizing the extent to which this is true wildly changed my opinions about how to deal with Trumpism, since they're never going to be satisfied unless they're actively dominating everyone else. You can't give them some concessions and go back to the status quo: they're reactionary revolutionaries.

I have former friends who laughed and jeered at her and wakefield and their ilk with me 20 years ago who wouldn’t get a vaccine to save their own mother now. The harm she’s caused is incalculable
