It is unfathomable that there aren't ICE whistleblowers with something to say right now. They have to exist, mathematically, and there should be a reporter with a mic in front of them. The absence is, like everything else, chilling.

Do you ever think about just how much evidence is being destroyed in this administration Not just new evidence. There probably won't be, say, an Epstein file to release after this.

Fuck yes to this. He is the human manifestation of the word "dank" and taking him seriously as an intellectual is a sign to everyone else that you have all the mental rigor of an overmoistened saltine cracker, and the empathy of an expired slab of ham.

Man I miss the twitter feature where you could follow someone but mute their retweets Getting some second degree opinions that are so dumb i can only hope they're trying to farm reply guys, because whooof

Biden committed the worst sin against media possible. He briefly robbed them of Trump. They will never forgive him for it.

Well, we might have secret police disappearing people off the street, congressmen and mayors being harassed or arrested for lawful oversight, the president openly taking bribes while crashing the economy and Nazis and Klansmen in every level of office, but hey We are safe from the menace tan suits

It's so gross because the rampant cruelty is so rampantly, crazily awful, and it should be an institution ending crisis. And yet it is in key ways a distraction; the destruction of every institution that regulates power or even provides information about harm could make this look like an appetizer.

I’m old enough to remember when Charles Schumer promised us that he’d help mobilize a mass resistance if Trump ignored a Supreme Court decision.

I assume we won't get abrego Garcia back under this administration. And I assume if we eventually do, he will have brand new knuckle tattoos that won't match the Photoshop. Salted rim water glass level propaganda.

Well played, Carleton.

if you seriously hate the price structure of the Switch 2, consider getting a Steam Deck. every week, five 100-hour games go on sale for under ten bucks—i currently own 700 Steam games and i’m in a hell of my own making

There’s a million things to be mad about but there is something particularly vile that the men dismantling every collective social good we’ve established are people who materially want for nothing. They’re putting us through the meat grinder and they’re not even hungry.

For those of you doing the math at home, "5 more" is 200,000 "home growns" that America is planning to unconstitutionally violate.

When it came out, I felt The Force Awakens cut world-building corners to repeat A New Hope, but 10 years on, its depiction of a world where embittered fanboys lean into totalitarianism and extremely recent history has been forgotten (if not repressed) seems prescient. My bad, JJ Abrams.

I can't wait for the next crop of post apocalyptic fiction, where instead of an unstoppable, terrible disease or nuclear war wiping out civilization, it's just free thinking, patriotic piss drinkers moving north with measles and tuberculosis, threatening people with guns for washing their hands

The new hotness is blocking accounts that conform with one's politics but are clearly farming outrage and fear. They might be bots! They might not be! But whatever they are, they're not helping!

This is a great point. For example, when I look back at the epochal changes of this past January, I would personally have voted not to confirm Marco Rubio

tolerance does not require understanding

"CDs are an irrelevant technology." YES. Yes you're starting to get it. Look how stupid relevant technology is. You're so close to realizing that CDs are awesome

a major issue with video games is that they produce a bunch of people who consider themselves brain geniuses for solving problems that were designed to be solvable. as a remedy, we should be making more games that are actively and irreconcilably hostile to the player. thank you

I haven't and will not be forgetting Chuck's betrayal. I call my senators, Murray and Cantwell, and ask them to push him out frequently.
