I wouldn't care about the downfall of American supremacy so much if it wasn't going to take the battle for climate protection with it

from what I can tell the news organization calling itself “the free press” has not published anything about the Trump administration’s seizure of the White House press pool

I will not forgive Musk and Trump for creating a world where @internethippo.bsky.social is providing insightful real-time political reaction and not just funny shitposts

A coup is in progress, but has not been consolidated. The President of the United States is in the process of placing the entirety of the Federal government under his own control using methods that are in direct violation of the U.S. Constitution. This is a coup. isthisacoup.com

The DOGE firings have nothing to do with “efficiency” or “cutting waste.” They’re a direct push to weaken federal agencies perceived as liberal. This was evident from the start, and now the data confirms it: targeted agencies overwhelmingly those seen as more left-leaning. 🧵⬇️

I feel like I'm going insane every time I see a media story about DOGE that doesn't also mention the fact that the Government Accountability Office exists and performs the exact function that DOGE pretends to, only in a credibly constitutional, non-partisan, and conflict-of-interest-free manner

On the days I am about to give up, this Gwendolyn Brooks poem gives me an anchor.

Now the whole country gets the experience of what it's like when private equity buys the place you work

Absolutely livid that my Massive Plagiarism Machine has been ripped off

My first and definitely last time working with the Los Angeles Times. Editing out the most urgent point of an OpEd in the minutes before sending to press while then also assigning a title and image that suggest an argument entirely opposite to the author’s clear intent is pretty shitty.

Sir our plan to replace the entire government with 4chan freaks has run into a few snags

Finally some good news www.theguardian.com/science/2025...

Don't tell me that the billionaires running the country don't have my interests at heart. You don't know my interests. What if my interests are to eat shit and die

I've created a calculator that gives you the right answer 80% of the time and I believe it will change the world

Honestly what's the point? Be alive for another day to enjoy a smooth coffee? To smile at the rain? To nibble on a wafer biscuit? I just don't see it

Yup, @jamellebouie.net has this exactly right. What these guys are celebrating/pursuing/yearning for is not masculine energy, it's *adolescent* energy. Drinking Red Bull, crushing Call of Duty, refusing to clean your room. It is indescribably pathetic. www.nytimes.com/2025/01/18/o...

In other news, Nigel Farage didn't bother to turn up to the debate on grooming gangs in the House of Commons just now

I was saying Boo-uigi Mangione

started watching Lost and man what a confusing show I mean what is this giant metal flying machine they are all on how can it stay in the air if it's not a bird

honestly dont even bother worrying about your new years resolution. i bet its gonna be the same as every year (stop being such a piece of shit)

To be honest I think she looked better before

I dunno about you, but I'm starting to like this so-called Mere Exposure Effect

A list of bands in order of efficacy: 3. Placebo 2. The Cure 1. Prevention

i admit i live in an echo chamber of leftist politics, the only exception being when i hear things said by the president, the next president, the supreme court, members of congress, people on the news, my family, or people i encounter in my daily life.

The UK is immune to Russian hybrid warfare because our sewage, transport and energy infrastructure is already dogshit. Checkmate, Kremlin.

Gonna ruin the credibility of the Flat Earth Society by arguing they don't fit the definition of society

Yeh dude, that's just what missiles do

Furiously checking the long term weather forecast for Glastonbury
