I'm catching up on this weekend's European rhythmic gymnastics championships and I see the gymnasts have caught Dune fever from figure skating.

Trump sending military after protestors is not a distraction from his feud with Musk. But it may be intended to intimidate the public out of protesting his big boy birthday parade. I think it may have the opposite effect.

Pig pen

Incredible that while our right wing president is gearing up to militarily put down protests, our news media orgs are suspending journalists to protect the fee fees of Stephen Miller and whining about Bluesky users being mean to Nazis. Priorities!

It's great hearing about diversity of thought from massively wealthy people because you know none of them ever interact with working class people outside of an employer/employee or customer/service worker interaction.

The Atlantic should rename itself The Good German en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Good_Ge...

The wealthy don't want an educated populace who might use their education to question things, but also know they need us to be educated enough to work. They're going to use AI to educate kids in a way that teaches them just enough to work without thinking critically.

Love how our corporate media thinks that trans kids getting puberty blockers is an existential crisis but fascism is no biggie. I wonder why no one trusts the news media anymore?

Jared Leto is one of two big actors I've wondered about why their scumminess has never become universally known. The other one is Ashton Kutcher.

It's sort of darkly funny that the Trump administration is even bothering to sanction the ICC when they're doing the absolute bare minimum and at a snails pace. None of our international institutions are willing and able to stop genocide or illegal war. They just scold people for it sometimes.

Because we watched a Grindhouse adjacent movie, it got me to remembering the delightfully cheesy and stupid Rose McGowan thriller Devil in the Flesh. Lo and behold it is on Tubi and I am watching it. #FrightClub

I don't know how this escaped my notice this long. What a blast! #FrightClub

I'm sure there's people who would clutch their pearls about this movie, but our protagonists are an unhoused person and a sex worker. Both of whom have agency and both of whom we're intended to respect and care about. That's more progressive than you'd see in a network TV crime drama. #FrightClub

"First I gotta wash this guy's asshole off my face" Relatable for anyone who's ever had a cat who decides to wake you up by standing on you and putting their butthole in your face #FrightClub

Oh, that was a cathartic kill. #FrightClub

"Hobo stops begging, demands change" I wish real newspapers had such stellar headlines. #FrightClub

In 2025 a different crusader would be taking out Drake #FrightClub

Brb. Putting on my bikini to go dance in a blood shower. Normal behavior. #FrightClub

Joining #FrightClub for movie 2. I have never heard of Hobo With a Shotgun but from the description it sounds wild. Pedophile Santas? Plural?

Riley Gaines' delusional ass is trying to recruit Simone? Lmao.

This is a good example of why I'm not on board with the primary the old Democrats thing. Ro Khanna is 100% the most primary worthy Democrat up for election in 2026.

It should not take a third of the runtime of a rage infection apocalypse movie starring mustache dad from Twilight to get to the plague monsters, but here we are. No, Outbreak. I did not press play on this movie because I want to see you and your alcoholic wife grieve about your missing kid.

This is like watching Freddy vs. Jason in order to decide who you'd rather be murdered by. You're doing it wrong.

I've got no fancy business degree, but I would think if you're a pizza restaurant it might not be a good idea to change your website from one that works to one that forgets your customers log in information, won't send a passport reset link and doesn't provide an option to add toppings to your pizza

When mom and dad fight, it’s hardest on the kids. A 🧵

You know, when I first got into politics, men would always tell me that WOMEN were too emotional to lead. 🧐

So I heard Republicans are confused and waiting for Jerry Springer to tell them who their daddy is before any legislation can move! Is Elon their daddy or Trump?
