I live in a rural town and, like, I don't know how to tell you this, but the girls play on the boys team and vice versa all the time because otherwise we don't have enough players for a game and it's literally always fine so stop being weirdos about kids sports and just let trans kids play.

liberty mutual was the only advertiser who stuck with tucker carlson after he said mexicans were "filth" so whatever fantasies you have about torturing the mascot are morally correct

AI shouldn't be able to fire you, fire a weapon, or deny you healthcare.

I see we're having a debate about whether it's okay to go back to "X," the site owned by a trillionaire fascist who is currently bankrolling the GOP's midterm, throttled Ukraine's war effort, and still winkingly allows vast amounts of CSAM on his service Answer: No, what the fuck is wrong with you

Tankies continue to be idiots.

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.

The cyberpunk part of this is that since his son plays in the league he implicitly wants you to gamble on his son

Christening a baby is nothing like christening a ship. I know that now. Once again I can only apologise.

One aspect of living in a personalist form of government is that people no longer expect the laws or norms to protect them. If the king is rumored to be thinking of demolishing a believed institution, people assume they must defend it in person

JD Vance: This election is a referendum on common sense versus crazy. Let’s send the crazy packing and get them out of Washington, DC.

“trump will destroy everything he cannot own in perpetuity” is one reason i am filled with dread over 2028

I don't know I'm pretty sure that data centers can indeed be bombed with explosives.

I think the general consensus of people around the world is that Americans can get fooled by a con man once, but to return him to power a 2nd time after having seen his corruption, incompetence, ignorance, & buffoonery, the problem isn’t just Trump it’s the American people.

Our white supremacist government intervened in a foreign university internal academic review for a white supremacist.

The Speaker of the House routinely deflects questions about the president who is in his own party by saying he hadn't heard that particular comment, but every single Democratic candidate is expected to denounce a Twitch streamer?

fun fact: last time the CIA director flew to Moscow was ~90 days before the full-fledged invasion of ukraine

Bread and circuses

I don’t think a good definition of “viewpoint diversity” is “you must lower your standards specifically for anti-science, anti-truth, bigots, and fascists — a healthy intellectual community needs those voices and they can’t clear the bar otherwise.”

Let this radicalize you

Uhh this is some bullsh*t

Can't get enough of the Natalie Harp stuff. The 1:1 parallels with the girl from Obsession. Everyone in rightwing media pretending she's 16 years old so they can be mad, their favorite mood. The phrase "over-the-diaper handy" entering the lexicon. Keep it up everybody.

My theory is that these aren’t related, and the second actually comes from a scarcity fear. These aren’t expensive luxury desserts, they are very cheap things made to look like excess by dousing them with other cheap things.

I think marketing something like this should put you somewhere worse than prison

at long last we have created the Uzumaki from the famous Junji Ito manga "don't create the Uzumaki"

Have we not eaten while another starved? Will you punish us for that? Will you reward us for the virtue of starving while others ate? No man earns punishment, no man earns reward. Free your mind of the idea of deserving, the idea of earning, and you will begin to be able to think

There is no version of yourself you could become that would satisfy the people who hate you. So you might as well be who you are.

THE LORAX: i am the lorax, i speak for the trees BLUESKY REPLY GUY: twenty million animals died last year and you dont speak for them??

Huh

Can't make it any clearer their goal to enslave everyone through debt.

If the Democratic coalition has room for anti-Trump conservatives, it has room for the DSA.
