"I'm sorry! Thank you for your interest in 'Abolish ICE', but that is no longer available. Would you be interested in our new model: 'Prosecute ICE'?"

Imagine putting on all this tactical gear and latching onto a military assault vehicle so you can storm a minimall on Sepulveda and apprehend a line cook at family restaurant.

I was traumatised by a household accident. I cut myself badly on a 2000s-era TV screen connection interface. The wounds healed, but I still have the scart issue.

the antlers, my friend are goin' in the bin these antlers are goin' in the bin

This seems like a great day to remind Bluesky that Stephen Miller lived four doors down from me freshman year And our student council person asked him (and everyone) to sign a birthday card for our dorm’s janitor And he threw a tantrum and wrote an op-ed about not socializing with “the help.”

Trump's master deal-maker persona is bullshit, but the deal he offered billionaires in late 2023/early 2024 was simple: back me financially and I will make you richer. They didn't see the inevitable new deal once he had power: oppose me and I will fuck you up. www.theguardian.com/technology/2...

If any marginalized group has to fight for equal rights…then our systems and laws are NOT equal. Read that again. Take all the time you need.

Fascinating to me how many ostensibly intelligent people can’t get their head around the fact that supporting Ukrainian self-defence is the anti-war position

It is lovely and pleasant that the most unpleasant people in our society are right now very scared and unhappy

Busy day.

I'm getting it all second hand, often in reverse order, and I think I prefer it that way.

This would be the top leopard eating faces moment of all time.

Yeah, a lot of this sounds very, very, VERY familiar. www.theguardian.com/society/2025...

They are so unbelievably and terribly desperate. You don’t do things like this unless you are scraping the bottom of the barrel for revenue and adoption. This is the ultimate form of the tech industry: a despicable, wretched, entitled, destructive, abusive digital despot that wants to con your kids.

Constellations are ridiculous and no-one should be expected to know them.

Homes are collapsing over families. Entire households are trapped. A scene from 𝘿𝙤𝙤𝙢𝙨𝙙𝙖𝙮 is unfolding before the world's eyes. 𝙎𝙘𝙧𝙚𝙖𝙢𝙨 𝙧𝙚𝙖𝙘𝙝 𝙩𝙝𝙚 𝙝𝙚𝙖𝙫𝙚𝙣𝙨. Israel is not just a danger to Gaza , it's a threat to humanity.

This morning's entry in BBC Radio 4's Today programme's occasional interview-an-American-right-wing-politician- who-is-audibly-drunk series was particularly audibly drunk.

Which no-one will play, because why would I pay for slop when I can push the slop button too?

If you see this, quote post a show with an awesome theme song. In French. www.youtube.com/watch?v=--K6...

We're investigating a private online secondary school for the 16-year-old, and under the art option found this: "Use artificial intelligence to create surprising images, innovate and imagine differently." Turned us right off.

"Since Trump returned to the White House, the checks and balances of US democracy have proved remarkably resilient" HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA NO THEY FUCKING HAVEN'T.

This is how you do it.

AI doomers and AI zoomers are two sides of the same coin, powered by a quasi-supernatural belief that God is coming to the machine. The reality is more mundane: that semi-functional AIs will thoroughly undermine the existing social order through myriad systems of abuse.

MEDICAL INTUITIVE!

Post a banger that's not in English. www.youtube.com/watch?v=jsJV...

Heavy rock trivia: Scorpions have never played in Ireland.

Anyone saying ‘DEI’ here in the UK is telling you very directly where their hate is imported from.

Watching everyone adopt this stuff is like living in Invasion of the Bodysnatchers. Everywhere you look, the original version of something is in the process of being consumed, and everyone is acting like it’s perfectly normal.

if democrats focused on democratic-leaning groups who dont vote its - cheaper - will flip more wobbly voters who voted for trump than pretending to be gop-lite to get those same voters - more moral
