when someone cares this little about sexual harassment done by elected officials i just assume they probably engage in sexual harassment themselves.

People assume Andrew Cuomo is tough and A Fighter because he always looks angry and acts weird. Mistaking a total lack of emotional self-regulation and wild, self-destructive spite for Masculine Strength is one of the defining political errors to me. No one even tries to keep it together anymore.

I got these memory foam indoor/outdoor slippers and I’m losing my mind how comfy they are. I don’t know if I’m ever putting on shoes again.

HEY EVERYONE REMEMBER WHEN TRUMP WAS IMPEACHED FOR DENYING AID TO UKRAINE BECAUSE HE WANTED ZELENSKY TO LIE AND SAY BAD THINGS ABOUT BIDEN AND ZELENKSY WOULDN’T DO IT? Maybe literally one fucking American newspapers could mention this in their, “think pieces,” about what happened yesterday.

I wonder if there's anything instructional history can tell us about fascists in charge of implementing genocide riding around in extremely identifiable cars

this guy's coverage of trans issues has been shitty for a long time but it's always bracing to be reminded how many prominent journalists see us as nothing more than a thought experiment

If only trans people and their families were real and capable of speech, then perhaps reporters could speak with them and ask them their opinions about things. Unfortunately this is not possible with today's reporting technology for some reason

NEW: Elon Musk is wreaking havoc on US science in Antarctica. Program managers have been purged; workers fear they could be fired while being trapped until October; foreign nations including China already recruiting, poised to take over. This is from @leahfeiger.bsky.social

The United States was carefully designed with a system of checks and balances where different branches of government are controlled by different billionaires.

I'm not worried about Trump. The Democrats have proven that the president does not have the power to make large changes. There will be some incremental tinkering with numbers at the margins, but mostly it will be business as usual. The ship of state turns slowly.

Presidents can't do things unilaterally. Obama tried for eight years to close Guantanamo Bay and it couldn't be done. If presidents could implement sweeping changes, we'd have the Democratic dream of universal healthcare by now. It's an unrealistic demand to make of the candidates you ought support.

Brave to @jeffstein.bsky.social, WaPo's chief economics correspondent, for not wasting any time in stating what must be stated. Hopefully the first of many.

This has to be one of the biggest opsec fails I've ever seen in my life. The actual director of the FBI driving around in the most conspicuous vehicle imaginable made even more so by it being neon red.

i keep seeing the right argue that the nazi salutes are "trolling." i think there's some truth to that, but know what exactly is being mocked. they aren't mocking the idea that they could be nazis, they're mocking the idea that they should care one way or the other.

dude it really is not funny or witty to tag a swastika on nazi stuff. people just see that and think "oh no, nazis have a big presence in this neighborhood, they're out tagging things with their symbols" they don't make the connection that it's meant to be a comment on the specific tagged thing

For my first @spitfirenews.com piece, I investigated the tactics used to make stories and information disappear on social media platforms like Reddit. This piece is about Blake Lively, but it’s also about how to manipulate the masses about anything. spitfirenews.com/p/the-blake-...
