"[A]t no previous point in my lifetime has a sitting president had to appear on television and tell the public that he is not being manipulated by a scheming vizier. Not even George W. Bush had to do that, and plenty of people were suspicious of Dick Cheney." — @lopatto.bsky.social @theverge.com

folks really need to accept that "lawful" and "lawless" don't matter, what matters is being able to marshal and deploy force (force of capital, the force of arms, the force of a crowd...) none of the people running the country right now give a good goddamn about the law

The Vulture article on Neil Gaiman's decades of rape and abuse is chilling. What a fucking monster. Given his influence the bravery of the women he attacked cannot be overstated. www.vulture.com/article/neil...

History will remember that we as a society placed our faith in Google to index the web because of theIr motto, don't be evil. We got conned, and Google has officially crossed the line from making profits as a business to profiteering off of our digital enslavement to their products.

Lone Kums is repeating the President Elect's media capture formula. Keep posting bullshit so people keep discussing him, regardless of platform, political leanings etc. Counting the post numbers is akin to paparazzi reporting on burger toppings. We need to be better. Lone is not a govt official, yet
