One of the most underrated cultural divides in America is between people who know and care what motion smoothing is and people who still don't. The anti-smoothers went for Kamala by 20 points, minimum.

I’m just going to say that AOC is the acting leader of the Democratic Party until someone proves otherwise. At least insofar as she is responding to the moment with leadership.

Trump’s proposal to strip birthright citizenship from those born in this nation is unconstitutional. In Illinois, we follow the law. This is only the start of attempts to undermine the rule of law, and Illinoisans can count on me to stand against unconstitutional actions.

Happy MLK Day.

When we see narratives that blame the most vulnerable people for problems caused by the most powerful, I think it’s important to remember that this viral spread of misinfo is a more pervasive version of what the powerful have always done to defend themselves, with tech they steered in this direction

waaaaay too many people in the middle imo

The comic that got us demonetised on Facebook back in August. (We’re no longer on Facebook).

Happy birthday to Hayao Miyazaki, a generational talent in two hugely important media

Posted this at the old place, but thought folks on @bsky.app might like to know I finally met my "mother".

What else is going on…… Oh, I made party sandwiches by baking focaccia in a bundt pan.

Really appreciated @daralind.bsky.social saying this on immigration for the NYT recently. It's important to be clear about the hurdles Trump will face on deportation because if immigrants get the idea he can do whatever he wants, many will try to leave on their own. www.nytimes.com/2024/11/21/o...

There's basically no evidence to suggest Cheney hurt Harris in any meaningful way. There is a lot of evidence, though, that the Cheney push also didn't help the campaign at all, as many predicted. www.politico.com/news/2024/11...

truly shocked that a preening buffoon with enough self-regard to produce two memoirs before the age of 40 believes that being being fat or overweight is a moral failure and that one must engage in cleansing struggle to become healthy.

Dear Diner: Just be a diner. Don’t renovate to try to look fancier or sexier or like something you’re not. Just be a diner. We love you for it, and we sometimes need a break from the “it” restaurants. Extra points for linoleum tabletops, vinyl booths, good coffee, and the definitive burger deluxe.

The other exploding area of dark money in politics is the crypto lobby. They have dumped insane sums in elections in both parties (Dem primaries + GOP general elections). It’s pretty bad

Friendsgiving was great. Got to spend time with the homies, talk tech (all of us are software devs), gaming, movies, and anime like usual then whoop ass in Tabletop Games and claim the winner is cheatin. Good vibes ❤️✌🏾

I feel like videogames actually do provide a pretty accurate representation of real life right now because a lot of videogames are like “THE WORLD IS ENDING” and then you just collect herbs and pretend nothing is wrong

The lesson from Arcane is to make a good video game adaptation you take a game with no story so you're not bound to any silly video game stuff and you just write a whole new story that is fun and entertaining

my brother you’re looking at the people you chose to follow

when they don't actually have any crying libs to make fun of they just repeat the same attack pattern but against people having normal conversation

Saying that elden ring should have an easy mode in a room full of men just to feel something

One thing I find interesting about the echo chamber complaint is that an echo chamber just won a presidential election. Put aside the convo of whether it’s “good” or “bad” for a moment. The far right has devoted enormous resources + time to building echo chambers & loathes spaces they don’t control

god the way i will lose my mind if ANDOR season 2 has even more scenes of imperial bureaucratic squabbling

finally a reasonable take

Why I’m finding out from Twitter that Andrew Tate tried to bring his ass over here and got banned after one day? Yea not leaving this app lmao.

"If a woman doesn't look woman enough to a Republican, they want to be able to inspect your genitals to use a bathroom? It's disgusting. Everyone should reject it completely... they're endangering women, they're endangering girls of all kind, and everyone should reject it. It's gross." - AOC

Being a happy crier sucks ass because people who are genuinely sweet are always like 'omg are you OK' And I feel like a genuine jackass going 'yea I'm fine I'm just crying because the first all-Black speedrunning charity event at GDQ announced our schedule and it doesn't feel real'

Firstly, firing an employee for simply taking sick leave is wrongful termination. Secondly, busy or not, having a contagious person come into work to get the rest of your staff and customers sick is just bad business. Management needs to learn how to be better at their jobs.

hell yeah

couple years ago i did a study of the strategies people used to defend professors who had been accused of sexual impropriety in their labs/departments. overwhelmingly the most common one was that he’s a special genius and mediocre minds want to deprive us of his brilliance. this thinking is RAMPANT

If i was the richest guy in the world i would just do stuff like give the decemberists 100 million dollars to write a concept album about the hardy boys

Okay, y’all… I have finally decided that retreat is the better part of valor. Bringing some rainbow energy over to these blue skies. #bydhttmwdi

It's time to take solace and pride in what people disparigingly call a bubble. I don't need to talk to the 'other side', to the hate-filled, the reactionary, the proudly low-info. I don't have their books on my shelves, I don't invite them over. And I don't need to hear what they have to say online.

just block them

Democrats lost while doing everything the left was begging them not to do, and now most of them have concluded that this means that it was a mistake to listen to the people they ignored and to run the campaign they didn't run, and must now pivot to doing more of exactly what they did when they lost.

I had a post go viral and nobody called me out of my name?

and nobody is calling me a stupid bitch because i said my favorite cereal is lucky charms like lmaooo

What I find so funny about these people is that they won and it’s not enough for them. They’re in power, they control the fate of everything in the country, they took over Twitter. And yet, they can’t help but go searching for the same people that they dislike so much.

I really don’t understand this whole ‘stay on Twitter and fight’ thing. You’re jousting with bots and reply guys and wading through ads it’s not Waterloo.
