The irony of saying this when you just wrote a puff piece for a right wing influencer that looks the other way at his posting not-easily-obtainable CSAM. You’re doing worse, you’re normalizing that sort of stuff when you minimize it as much as you did in this article

When we spoke the old punk told me he was just coming in from planting flowers, and when I said that I didn’t realize he planted flowers, the old punk told me: that if you want bread and roses you have to learn how to bake and how to garden.

This is simply an amazing explanation for soft-shoeing your own failure to make a right wing troll's extremely criminal possession and distribution of horrifyingly notorious CSAM the primary focus of your deeply sympathetic profile of said right wing troll.

Member when everybody was SO concerned about privacy issues that they banned an app owned by another country only to turn our ACTUAL private data over to a drug addled immigrant grifter?

everybody talking about when the people providing AI for free start charging, but actually, the arc of history suggests that the next move will just be to insert advertising, and I think we can all envision the smoothness with which that will be inserted into the output.

We have paid 15% of our income* for our entire fucking lives. Please go fuck yourself. * I know half technically comes from the employer but if they weren’t paying it we would make more money

I see Stuart Thompson's doing the thing so many journalists do on here, where he's being snotty and dismissive to people in his replies, because of course that's the way to respond to people upset you let a guy who posted vile CSAM on X portray himself as the fucking victim. 🙄

A good day to tell everyone about one of my favorite websites: the Commercial Pattern Archive: copa.apps.uri.edu Vintage patterns all the way back to 1857, for personal research and reference.

There are many complicated explanations for why Dems have spent 50 yrs losing lots of elections, but theres also a simple one: Dems were a majority party for decades when they championed New Deal-ism & they became a losing party when they sided with money & discarded that legacy

I appreciate that JFREJ is giving people the option to choose Lander or Mamdani for number 1. They're both good candidates! Nice to be reminded that we don't have to demonize either one of them!

The distance between Elon Musk being the richest person in the world and Elon Musk being in prison for an obvious Theranos-style scam that kills its victims is the distance between the world we live under and the world we have on paper

I said in an interview that I have a lot of empathy for John, because he lost his dream, too. But Unbound's sales reports showing my second book as a flop when it actually sold out its print run was unfathomably cruel. Seeing Ingram's data, showing 10x the sales I was paid for, broke my heart.

I'm actually super fucking mad that the Elon Musk era is gonna end because of narcissist infighting with a former reality TV show host, and not because even a single institution in American life made a serious effort to hold him responsible for a decade plus long crime spree

Elon Musk believes that a majority of the base for the Democratic Party is subhuman. This cannot be squared. Ever. There's no common ground.

In amongst all the excitement I fear many have missed this outstanding bit of trolling by Friedrich Merz. The Chancellor gifted Trump a gilded framed copy of his grandfather’s German birth certificate... reminding Americans that Trump is both the child and grandchild of migrants.

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.”

Elon's "without me Trump woild have lost" tweet, in conjunction with Trump's own words about "all those smart computers" would conjure several ominous guys in suits and a search warrant in a just world.

Just to pitch an idea for the FOTUS' consideration: you wanna know what would absolutely DESTROY Elon? Removing the tariffs on Chinese electric cars. If people can buy a good EV for just $25,000, Tesla will be absolutely obliterated. Just sayin'.

Keep track of any Democrat or commentator or personality who advocates for Musk to be welcomed back into the fold. These are people you cannot trust and should be kept as far away from the levers of power as humanly possible.
