i thought you guys weren’t gonna “surrender in advance” lmfao

has had individual turnarounds on trans issues and has included them in reporting. Beyond it's like every other industry: you could only be Dave Weigel and have the Include Trans People in the narrative approach premise if you had big fucking blinders about Jesse Singal not having a narrative slant

fucken get your shots

this is going to be a historic year for fighting back

Easter 2025 is on 4/20 y'all

Societal collapse is already here, it's just not very evenly distributed yet

ACAB includes the elf on the shelf

Getting back on Feedly, what blogs/things with RSS feeds do I need to subscribe to?

Hmm seems like no angel

Fun thing about "shipmas" is that at syllable boundaries prenatally, stops are unreleased, so it requires close listening for it not to sound like "shitmas"

Sure, sure, that's interesting but I *do* have a mouth and I *can* scream

Modern LLMs, or the mechanical mansplainer

Important tip to anyone living in New Jersey: an N95, KN95, or KF94 filter mask will protect you from the Drone Spores. Wear one anytime you're in a crowded space and you'll be a lot less likely to develop the Mysterious Cough.

sorry I haven't posted here recently, this place is run by transphobes

As we all know, birds need two wings to fly, a right wing and a center-right wing

bsky mod: we want an environment that fosters all viewpoints jesse singal: one time i was chasing a trans and she painted a tunnel on the face of a cliff and then ran through the tunnel but when i tried i smashed my head into solid rock and passed out. when i woke up i thought children were sexy

STOP ISRAEL for the love of humanity.

“There is no such thing as a perfect place on the internet. But it’s possible to avoid the ones that aren’t even pretending to try to be better. The best time to leave Substack was a long time ago. The second best time is now.” My latest:

Matthew Francis - science journalist, hat & cat appreciator, & someone i consider a friend - deleted his Bluesky account last week. For those of you still wondering "what is the DEAL" with that Jesse Singal guy (or even "who even is that"), this is a must-read - especially if you're not trans

Never forget how propagandists Vanessa Beeley, Eva Bartlett, and Max Blumenthal promoted Assad and viciously spread disinfo about White Helmets. If they are anywhere near this platform they need to be "asked" to leave.

I'm patiently waiting for @iwriteok.bsky.social to change the name of his podcast to It Is Happening Here Right Now, You Guys.

I have a super vague memory of Challenger Berlin Wall falling was the first one that I remember pervading the fuckin zeitgeist or whatever The first US Invasion of Iraq ("Desert Storm") was the first one I remember following of my own

damn sounds like something they should have campaigned on

wouldn't be amiss to do the same thing to the mods that was just done to singl

trump is still willing to lie to you to get elected, the democrats expect you to lie to yourself on their behalf now

it's actually just "deftones" not "the deftones" as the latter implies disregard for their sovereignty from russia

So, sounds like microblogging supported by venture capital is going exactly as expected. I was told by some [don't make me say it] blue sky elders that this place would be different. Not that I believed it, but it's what I was told.

my loathsome servants seem unhappy with their allotment of crumbs and keep sprouting visible thought bubbles of me trussed up like a glistening ham

for a site with a lax trust & safety culture, i don’t see transphobes’ home addresses nearly enough in my tl

So as someone who didn't spend a lot of time on Bsky in the old days because I believe that it's probably doomed to failure because it's materially no different from Twitter, how did y'all get rid of Jack?

Yesterday the New York Times instructed staff to avoid publishing photos of Luigi Mangione's face, internal company messages leaked to me reveal. "The news value and public service of showing his face is diminishing," Times management told staff. www.kenklippenstein.com/p/ny-times-d...

Insurers must spend 80-85% of premiums on care by law. "But big insurers have figured out if they also become health care providers—by buying physician practices, clinics, and pharmacy benefit managers—they can meet that threshold by paying themselves and avoiding payment for their customers’ care."

they're not even pretending anymore dude, this is just straight up evil looking. the downright authoritarian sentiment in white serif script against a pitch black background, punctuated with a razor sharp A colored red. from one propagandist to another, you've done a bad job with this one, guys.

COWBOY DAN, WHILE FIRING HIS RIFLE IN THE SKY: God if i have to die you will have to die!!! GOD: Who The Hell Is That ANGEL: that's Cowboy Dan, sir. he's a major player in the cowboy scene GOD: What

everyone is going to kiss the ring nobody wants to fight back by themselves and frankly most of them prefer it this way, because if you have the resources to bribe him the benefits of being the state-sanctioned monopoly are vast corporations were never our allies
