I could barely put down @caseyjohnston.bsky.social ‘s new book, “A Physical Education”. Tore through it in three days. It sung to me both in my current lifting journey and also in how I need to talk to my daughters about the strength they can find in their own bodies.

I just really need everybody to understand that everything that’s happening in and to the global economy now (and all the businesses and people in it) is the entirely predictable result of the intentional decisions of one guy who doesn’t understand how the global economy works.

"Masked security forces captured an opposition leader in the coastal province of New Jersey as regime officials continue their months-long crack-down against pro-democracy elements in the embattled United States. The arrest comes as the regime issued calls for summary detentions without trial."

I don’t care what Ozturk wrote. It doesn’t matter. This is America. We’re fucking free to have opinions of all sorts. It doesn’t matter. You don’t get to lock up people for bad thought. That’s against the fucking law and morals and fuck every last person arguing that this is a crime. Fuck all of em

People wonder who we celebrate Khan Pritzker, as he is the Scourge of the Steppe, and surely, the think, is tyrannical - but this is not true. For the Great Khan is the shield of his people.

Ah, but that's just it: the oligarchs don't want more innovation. They want the current wealth & power structure to be frozen in place for as long as possible, and they think that removing a building's structural support is the best way to preserve your spot on the top floor.

A reminder that every small bit of good you do - whether it be putting art into the world, helping a friend or stranger, donating to a good cause, or just listening to someone who needs to vent - offsets all the evil in the world just a little bit. And sometimes that's just what the world needs.

This entire thread is a wild, wild, WILD ride. Fun fact: when popes and antipopes collide, they mutually annihilate and release vast amounts of energy, per E=mc². For the average pope, this is about 8.09×10^18 J, equivalent to 1930 megatons of TNT, or about 2.25 trillion kWh of energy.

Two years ago I went on TV and said exactly this: The AI panic cycle was a marketing campaign by known billionaire failures, ultimately an excuse to revenge-fire workers with no immediate replacement. I literally said "The agita around AI is deeply cultural." Me no have TV job shortly thereafter.

I have a long enough memory about internet flame wars to remember that attempt by TERFs to claim Pratchett as their own for the absolute nonsense reasons. So I daresay I feel a certain satisfaction from the 1stEd signed Monstrous Regiment being the centrepiece of our auction.

The thing with Pedro Pascal is he not only gives a fuck; he knows he's huge enough to spend all day trashing bigots safely because entire franchises are built around him atm. He's no dispensable Gina Carano-tier secondary guy. This also underlines how most famous artists as big as him are cowards.

I think a lot of people work off a model where the median voter is a concerned and deliberative centrist, but in reality the median voter operates by deranged moon logic that requires heavy psychedelics to understand

THE BIGGEST NEWS! Rob and I are offering up a hand-signed hardback, first edition/first printing copy of Monstrous Regiment straight from the Pratchett archives. Those who know the story will know why it’s a pertinent one for this cause. (More pics to come.) www.32auctions.com/organization...

This is indeed incredible. “Conservative judge” doesn’t quite cut it as a description of Wilkinson. He is one of the most deferential-to-government-power judges in the country. When he writes like Justice Sotomayor it’s signs-and-wonders level.
