I say again: any Republican in congress with an ounce of integrity would switch parties immediately. They are complicit, sadistic cowards. Every single one.

In any other era, the Secretary of Defense threatening to invade an ally and one of our largest trade partners would be front page news for days. It’s not even the stupidest, most reckless thing this administration has done this afternoon. apple.news/AG-YEzrFtQlG...

worth saying again that this was a bait and switch. if trump had openly announced he was running on allowing companies to discriminate against women and minorities he would not have won wapo.st/43aVQg1

I’m sorry, but repeating this framing without skepticism is collaborating with your source to mislead your readers. They have been working on humiliating Zelensky and catering to Putin since long before the inauguration. Nothing about this is a response; it’s the plan of an abuser and a charlatan.

Kudos to Trump’s first national security advisor for “speaking out” publicly. But it’s only “impossible to understand” why Trump and Vance are supporting Putin if you refuse to acknowledge the abundant evidence that they are actively undermining the interests of the United States and its allies.

One of the brilliant things our current iteration of oligarchs did is get people to conceive of free speech as being able to call your coworkers slurs rather than using it to say stuff like why are my tax dollars subsidizing your billionaire ass

They will come up with a million bullshit excuses to continue blindly trusting Trump. But they are still bullshit.

i don't know how you can look at all of the agreements this administration *has already reneged on, just in the last three weeks* and think that, but for zelenskyy sitting there and taking insults from jd vance, they would have honored *this* agreement. wallet inspector shit.

Democrats can and should be much more openly contemptuous. They owe terrorists nothing and they should treat Nazis like Nazis. But it’s true that almost none of these appeasers could pull it off.

ppl getting angry at this but he's talking alliances and he's 100% right- you cannot trust a country where every 4 yrs the foreign policy does a complete 180 & tears up treaties and reneges on deals and withholds payments because some sheep farmers in Wisconsin think too many black women have jobs

Building the Wall was the rallying cry for Trump's first term, and for his second we appear to have shifted to Amontilladoing ourselves up into our own basement wall

fascinating to watch a global superpower tear itself apart for no good reason

Good. Fuck them. They're going to have to fight on against an unjust "peace" deal that will provide neither security nor justice while pillaging Ukraine. Shameful that as with Gaza, the US is shoulder to shoulder with the genocidal tyrant whose military forces seek to destroy an occupied people.

i believe that the question of trans personhood is the single most telling litmus test for whether or not a person should be considered a potential political ally. if you’re unwilling to take a basic moral stand for a group of people subject to political persecution, you cannot be trusted period

The point of excluding categories of people from the military like this is to send the message that they are unworthy of citizenship, it is pure bigotry and the assumptions behind it are disproven by the honorable service of the people being targeted in the first place bsky.app/profile/bran...

every single chikorita hater get out of my house. Get the fuck out of my face

Unbelievable news. Pancreatic is one of the deadliest cancers. New paper shows personalized mRNA vaccines can induce durable T cells that attack pancreatic cancer, with 75% of patients cancer free at three years—far, far better than standard of care. www.nature.com/articles/s41...

charli xcx is short for Charlie Xenoblade Chronicles X

how do you even ENGINEER a scenario where your camera picks up dick-shaped ultraviolet patterning that isn't visible to the naked eye. just, his deep, deep confusion when he sees it on the preview, turns around, and it's not there. perfect. i would be exactly this lost

One of the core beliefs I've adopted in the last few years is that we generally underrate how goofy and stupid the American past was and that being attentive to that helps us see continuities with the present. It's actually not obvious we live in dumber times. Every day tests this belief anew.

Cuomo isn't even a loyal partisan, he *literally* conspired with Republicans to hand them control of the NY state Senate for half a decade. maddening

oh cool I’ve been meaning to learn anxiety

I would like to see ANY of the pundits and intellectuals who've spent the last decade pissing and moaning about cancel culture dedicate at least 1/100th of that energy to the ongoing explicitly identity-based purges at the behest of professional propagandists, but I'm not holding my breath.

あけおめ〜 #カブミス

Goddamnit

To be clear: this was a chat room where trans people discussed medical procedures and surgeries. There was nothing "pornographic" about it, except in the imaginings of the bigots who deem every aspect of trans life pornographic. This is a purge of all trans employees, and nothing less.

Been feeling angry and stupid, so I decided to do something angry and stupid, which was count every dead demon in DOOM. Then, less stupid, donate that amount to @raicestexas.bsky.social. Thanks for everyone who donated and helped raise over $15,000.

Fuck we should form a neo Whig party at this point, I don't care.

Do not make this abuser the mayor of New York.

Legitimately the stupidest man alive I cannot fucking STAND this shit

Being a good manager is not about terrorizing other human beings

Fellas, it's been 3 years of Elden Ring! QT with your Elden Ring art! 👴💍

Does New York want to buck the long-running trend and elect a good mayor, or are they going to go for this dipshit?

[ceo tossing and turning in bed] the air. the air they breathe should be a subscription service.

Pretty neat that social media is just dealing low-grade psycic damage to us these days but we're all too addicted to stop using it.

Beyond the fact that so many of the people getting fired are Warner's own constituents, normal people HATE this shit and increasingly dislike Musk as well. I know Democrats are afraid of public anger and determined not to leverage it for some reason, but at some point this is just malpractice.

(Me, genius) I will do this task later when it’s less convenient

GALADRIEL: (glowing green) In place of a hard roll, I would have whole wheat—beautiful and terrible to behold! DELI GUY: #3 on wheat. G: (coyly) You offer it to me freely. DG: No, Galadriel. You have to pay. Every day with this

This Zoot Suit samus is pretty close to Giorgio Armani's 1984 women's power suit concept. Metroid's Samus Aran with her huge pauldrons was designed at a time when women's fashion in board rooms, law firms, politics was the wide shouldered power suit.

dunno why we are debating elon musk's intelligence when we all fucking saw him play elden ring with two shields and flasks removed from quick pouch

Jeffries: hey the GOP controls the government, absolutely nothing i can do, gonna work on my personal book tour Sanders: brb i am going to personally barnstorm strategic GOP house districts and try to peel off 2 votes so we can block Trump's cuts to Medicaid www.commondreams.org/news/bernie-...

all else aside this is some classic dumb guy management, just absolutely stupid time and resource wasting incompetent boss shit
