This is badass

Please read this whole thread. It’s a very good depiction of how community care looks right now. Please be ready to show the same care.

On Earth 2, we can't believe how good the new HBO Animorphs show looks. "They nailed the morphing," people enthuse. The nonbinary actor playing Ax's human morph is cutting it up on the Las Culturistas podcast. The actress playing Rachel has handcuffed herself to a data center

Arcade Conflagration

Headlines: Such-and-such technology may someday be as smart as human brains! Reminder: *We already have human brains.* Billions of them. Most of them living in poverty and being exploited for the obscene benefit of a tiny number of the worst people in the world.

This thread made my night

Good thing Werwulf is coming out on Christmas for some easy counterprogramming

I have a hypothesis (un-researched) that typography is a reliable indicator of AI-generated imagery. Most of the time it seems to use a "typeface" that's a flavor-free mashup of Comic Sans and Futura Black. Has anyone taken a close look at this?

That’s enough to fund 11 years worth of $2000 monthly housing vouchers for all 5300 individuals facing homelessness in DC right now.

I think this absolutely isn’t a crank theory and is just objectively correct.

Kinda wild that @jamellebouie.net is the only person saying this clearly in a high-profile media outlet, but I'm so glad he is.

The left needs a candidate it can unite around in the 2028 primaries and AOC is the only real choice. Nobody else checks all of the boxes. Every other option is worse. If she doesn't run, it's a missed opportunity of historic proportions. www.hamiltonnolan.com/p/aoc-must-r...

Real, "the law is powerless to help you, not to punish you" stuff

tarot is a billion times cooler than astrology to me one is a roguelike poetry/advice session and the other is haha hey what if the circumstances of your birth were insurmountable wouldnt that be cool

FUCK

THE WHITE HOUSE HAS BEEN OBLITERATED BY AN ATTACK BY THE SPACECRAFT OVER D.C. FLAMES ARE HUNDREDS OF FEET IN THE AIR. THE CAPITOL BUILDING HAS BEEN FLATTENED.

Actions. Consequences.

All I'm asking is for people to experience the consequences of their own actions

🥲

Spoilers for The Pitt Season 2

Really surprised this @atulocal689.bsky.social post has zero interaction a day later. I added alt text (across two images because this is a LOT of text) for accessibility. I’m just going to keep saying the same thing I always do. Make the status quo law, and make all buses free at the point of use.

hey john. its your cousin marvin. marvin cage! you know that new sound youve been looking for? well listen to this *hangs up phone*

Fucking WHY. It's not like the ones who are already here are busy, they spend all day loitering on corners and riding the Metro escalators up and down and getting side-eyed

You have to impeach Trump, as many times as possible, in massive prolonged proceedings, as stridently as possible, because in the US system, that is the strongest form of political condemnation available, and he must be condemned endlessly until he leaves office in disgrace, goes to prison, or dies

Listen to bizarre radio traffic from Reagan National Airport in which pilots are scolded for making dog and cat noises #DCA

This year, like every year for the last 16, I have paid my tax bill to a government in which I have no representation. This year, it feels far worse than in previous years, because of the things done with that money that zealous representation might have been able to curb or stop. Statehood for DC

Check out dcbudget.com! (surprisingly this domain was still available). Contains every agency & line item - searchable and sortable. No need to download dozens of PDFs

The Mayor's proposed FY2027 budget is public ... as a stack of PDFs most people don't want to search through, cross-reference, or analyze. This annoyed me last year, so this year I prepped something that is easier to go through.

Post Trump's Truth Social walls-of-text saying "this is not who we are" or "brain totally cooked" all you want, I will *never* read them.

The singular goal of all future US politics is to ensure Trumpism is defeated and cannot again take root here, and everything that serves that end is to be considered and prioritized. It's a holistic organizing principle, from a Green New Deal to Nuremberg 2 to expanding the court to Reconstruction.

Correct. And if we have a big constituent assembly to propose amendments to the constitution, it should take place in Philly and be called the Continental Congress. Really lean into it. DC is where the government goes when we’re in the new normal.

If the Iranians really want to fuck with us they should offer to open the straights in return for Trump’s resignation.

call for an investigation into the president's fitness. call for the house to impeach. say you will obstruct every last bit of senate business. call for soldiers to disregard illegal orders. say you will prosecute the people who do this. say you will take their military pensions and benefits.

Don't wait to do the right thing. Just do it.

days like today i get incandescent with rage all over again that he wasn't in cuffs and an orange jumpsuit and perp walked on jan 21st, 2021

you have to get him out of office and you have to do it today even if it gets blocked you force an impeachment vote right now how else can you live with yourself if he follows through with this and you didn’t do everything you could to stop it

It’s called the Cycle of Abuse or the Walker Wheel: calm followed by rising tension, the explosion of violence, the reconciliation, the incremental intensification of violence over time.

Nuremberg was an important symbol of German nationhood so I say with 100% sincerity that this is a job for Philadelphia
