Congrats to Lula on overcoming Mark Zuckerberg and Donald Trump to defeat Hospital Pervert Jr., even as his opposition literally blocked off roads and turned off bus service during election day. Fascists are scary but they are always, 100% of the time, ultimately gigantic fucking losers.

It is so fascinating that boomers skipped learning how to use cell phones and basic computer functions, but they are enraptured by AI like toddlers staring at a tablet

I wrote an explainer of the evil, terrible thing that almost happened with our tax dollars in Guinea-Bissau defector.com/the-u-s-fund...

Now is the time to care about everyone, not “once we win” The time to care about everyone is always always always now

I’m ok. Make no mistake: this is an attempt to target political enemies and weaponize federal law enforcement. For ten years, Trump has targeted me with baseless lies and smear campaigns. This is just the latest escalation in his campaign of political intimidation. I will not be silenced.

we gave baby monkeys a choice between a wire mother that provided them nourishment or a wire uncle that let them drive his car

Well folks it happened: a U.S. district court has ruled that Americans no longer have to go through the ATF and register to acquire short-barreled rifles, shotguns or suppressors. This is a massive change to gun laws in this country and also...not likely to change much. I'll explain.

There are many ways in which every billionaire is a policy failure, but the most corrosive and destructive way in which billionaires are policy failures is this: billionaires, despite being unelected and unaccountable, possess the power to control - and ruin - millions of peoples' lives.

They’re live-streaming the execution of the person they think they can get away with doing that to first. It’s a test. If they can do that, they’ll expand the margins of permission.

Man who won’t give his employees piss breaks claims many piss breaks on the horizon

the Catholic Church racking up PR wins by saying shit like “we shouldn’t bring back public executions” and “your Claude app isn’t sentient”

Do we really need to explain to people that it is really, REALLY important to read to young children? Like, you, personally, need to read to your child - your voice, your face, your hand gestures, your lap, your arms, your closeness. What kind of parent doesn't know this in their bones?

fuck these guys. put them all in prison.

If you're still under the impression that ICE can be reformed instead of the entire organization wiped and every member prosecuted for each of the crimes they have committed or abetted, the man that just shot at a car with a five year old was promoted TWICE under Biden.

From the people who told you that straight white male privilege doesn’t exist…

A couple went on a Fox News podcast and claimed the state of #Massachusetts took away their teen because they won't help the teen transition. But it's actually because the father was charged with beating and threatening to kill the teen and the mother was charged with witness intimidation.

COPS DONT EXIST TO PROTECT YOU

A pattern here is anti trans changes made under a labour government are assumed to be "reasonable and moderate" by people who would oppose them if a right wing government was doing them. This is worse for trans people because cis people just don't believe us when we talk about what is happening.

stages of demographic dismissal: 1. minority votes in massive %s for your party 2. rival party attacks them directly to break this 3. party concedes to rival party to try and get rival party supporters 4. minority % support lowers 5. party labels the minority extremists or a cult to blame minority

I advocate for withholding your vote from the leading anti-trans Dems, the ones calling us biological males and/or declaring they will be in favor of healthcare restrictions. So of course Will, who I have never had beef with, compares our anger to a cult and drives extreme harassment my way.

what a curious day to put these on sale

They disinvented the VCR. You might think that the reason we don't have VCRs anymore is because VCRs were supplanted by DVDs, PVRs and streaming, but that's not the case. They had it in for the VCR from the very start, and they never stopped trying to kill it. Eventually, they succeeded. 1/

Ben Gvir posted this video on twitter today which shows fat and happy Palestinians on a conveyer built going through the Israeli "prison" (torture camp) system and coming out emaciated and maudlin. This is textbook genocidal content.

Really tangential but too many people have bios about how they write at intersections of this and that. That's really dangerous. You should write indoors

hard to believe sometimes but i still think evil people are also capable of dying

Every single GOP voter is a class A moron

i can’t believe trump said this

"A bunch of people would rather post on Race War Now Dot Swastika rather than Bluesky because you keep making fun of their imaginary computer friend" is a RESOUNDING endorsement for the concept of hostility.

Maybe if the AI people yell at me for the 5 millionth time about how I’m not using their dogshit technology that has made everyone’s lives worse I’ll finally start liking it for no conceivable reason.

I will vote for anyone that runs on putting everyone in this video in jail.

i think my favorite kind of political wonk is the “centrist guy whos job is paying attention to politics but doesn’t understand anything”, easiest gig in the world. collect money from wealthy elite and just write “this just doesn’t make any sense!” articles every week

Reporter: You haven’t heard her name until now. She’s only seventeen years old. But White House intern Crespa Blumbo has been in charge of all nuclear missiles for the last two years and she just ordered the military to enact Project Acheron

Abolish ICE and salt the earth where it was allowed to grow

If police can violate your rights without repercussions how is that a right? www.yahoo.com/news/us/arti...

the reason republican run government is a disaster is because you have to be a dumb asshole to be a republican, you have to be willing to reject any semblance of reality on damn near every issue if you are going to get enough attention on the right to get elected

Top Trump official and tech billionaire Michael Boren personally diverted a disproportionate number of his agency's aircraft to fight a small fire on his ranch.

In the summer of 2013, two esoteric, technical, incredibly important texts were published within weeks of one another: the first is the Snowden leaks, which revealed a system of global, pervasive digital surveillance. 1/

hillary clinton ran in two elections that were supposed to be glide paths to victory and ate shit both times i hope she has some advice for me about voters

Can we normalize mixtapes?

This is VERY bad. Congressional investigation immediately. They’re trying to use Palantir to figure out who you voted for. 0% chance this ends well. Stop it ASAP.

With "surveillance pricing," businesses have finally found something AI can do way, way, *way* better than people: price gouging. 1/

YES Shaggy 2 Dope was scissoring a CHUD. But that doesn’t mean you have to be mean.
