Boycott Faroe Islands! It's the least you can do. Boycott Russia, and every company still having dealings with them. I also block rude people ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

They hate America, the constitution, and our democracy, and want a dictatorship instead. They’re not hiding it.

I do have a problem with the way Ukrainians waged war against the invader. Unlike Russia, they had access to almost anywhere in the (former) civilized world; and yet, they haven't squashed their enemies there. WW2 wasn't won just on the frontlines.

Schumer would have let Khrushchev put nuclear missiles on Cuba, because if he didn’t we’d have World War III.

Man, Idiocracy is such an optimistic movie. And no, this isn't UFC:

In a different timeline, Sanders won the Democratic primary against Clinton and became president. And in that timeline, this civilization ending bullcrap didn’t happen.

A reminder: life expectancy in the EU is 81.5 years, in the US 77.4. Apart from Lithuania (2.21) the homicide rate in the EU is below 2, for 16 countries including Italy, Spain and Germany below 1. It is above 6 in the US.

If you work at the Washington Post, now is the time to resign. You’re a part of this now.

Garry Kasparov is right, I’m afraid: they are breaking everything so quickly even though it’s unpopular, because they never expect to face real elections again. www.theatlantic.com/internationa...

It’s quite unpleasant to see the world being surprised by tRump being his usual psychopathic moron self. When are we going to start treating him and his goons for what they are? After they destroy the US? Civilization? When?

I'm sorry, but I don't consider myself equal to tRump and Vance. I don't even respect them as living beings, and I respect an earthworm from my garden.

The greatest business battle EVER to be fought will come when President Elon starts trying to implement AI for federal processes. The battle will be fought over which company’s AI will be used by the feds. This is a zero sum battle that will create more chaos than this country has ever seen

How dare you call me a Nazi Hitler – “The good of the state stands above the law.” Donald J. Trump - “He who saves his Country does not violate any Law.”

See here's how to do a headline. fortune.com/2025/02/13/e...

Seems to me law students should know which firms do legal work for Tesla or other Musk companies. Has anyone compiled a list?

Bye-bye! It's been nice knowing you. youtu.be/eI14kcVT3vU?...

happy first birthday to Bluesky, and what a year it's been! with every day, the need for an open network that puts people first becomes increasingly clear. we're glad to be building this with you. after all, the heart of a social network is the people.

His absurd pettiness would be funny in a silly Hollywood comedy from the '90. But this is real life, supposedly 🙃

Being so outside the box is another name for extreme idiocy.

It's a kind of coup, for sure. One we're not used to, and haven't experienced before, but it's definitely in the vicinity of a coup. An unelected billionaire literally taking over our government and our data and our secrets.

A rational world would economically isolate the US after Trump's last stunt. But the world hasn't isolated Russia as it should have, so yeah. I have just one US product in my house constantly, which is bourbon, but I wouldn't mind drinking tequila and mezcal instead.

The richest man in the world went full retard!!!

Speaking about language, a gentleman whom I admire, George Conway, introduced the concept of "narcissism" into the public sphere, which was unfortunate because, basically, it's perceived as a mellowed-down version of "psychopathy" Maybe people would have thought twice before voting for a psychopath

I do believe that the self-censorship imposed by the left backfired. It helped abhorrent people becoming legitimate political actors. Trump is beyond stupid and I do believe he has mental issues, like ADHD. The ancient proverb got banned, and the US went full retard, again.

Yes, this administration is dangerous and cruel, but they are also shockingly dim and incompetent. Opportunities are everywhere. Make everything as hard as possible. Resist every demand. Refuse entry without a warrant. Don’t take the buyout. Their problem solving skills are 📉

I'm wondering if their next tweet will be "Hitler did nothing wrong!", or something in that vein. It would be funny, if it wasn't so insane.

I wouldn't call the psychiatric problems of the richest man in the world "noise". He's defective in very many ways.

John F. Kennedy 22°F / outdoors Jimmy Carter 28°F / outdoors Barack Obama 28°F / outdoors Donald Trump 23°F / indoors It’s not about the cold. — It’s about covering up Trump’s embarrassingly small crowd size.

The huge crisis that the whole world is marching toward isn't just because of bad actors but also because of impotent politicians. Pro tip: publicly acknowledging a problem usually signals an intention to ignore it. See below: www.politico.eu/article/olaf...

Turns out the richest person on Earth and king of the tech bros is lying about being a gaming virtuoso, rigging the games he streams. Brazenly cheating at games, claiming to be a champion—another thing Elon Musk and his new friend have in common! www.pcgamer.com/games/rpg/pa...

It’s amazing to me that politicians don’t commit to post first on @bsky.app and to engage with constituents here THIS is more powerful than CNN , MSNBC, The Post will ever be. You can broadcast for 9 mins on a declining medium, or engage here and start a real discussion. Which is more powerful?
