Firing up Steph's masterpiece...

This is really worthwhile. I've strived for (and like to think managed) this in writing about women's football.

MAGA has viral posts going on X complaining that the judge in the USAID lawsuit has dual citizenship.

Just finished a re-watch of every Lakers Luka game. I knew this would make me unbearable. Y'all, I didn't fully appreciate the extent to which this would happen. I will say I was never on the "quit whining to the refs" thing. Now? I find it downright charming (and, objectively, he's usually right).

“The only minority destroying America is the billionaires” Listen to this message from @jamestalarico.bsky.social !!

So ridiculous.

The People's Union USA, a grassroots group, is calling on Americans to join a national boycott by not shopping for 24 hours on Friday.

A new McCarthy era is upon us. Stupid, depressing, and dangerous as ever. I wonder whose name will carry the dunce cap in the history books. Too many are complicit. I’ll need to find upset and action, but for now I’m feeling grief at the dehumanization inherent to all this.

But say it out loud and get threatened with being thrown out of congress.

Has anyone ever used the NBABet stream on League Pass? No, right?

Who EVER thought you could agree with Steven Bannon ?? Omfg Bannon says⬇️ "MUSK is a parasitic illegal immigrant. He wants to impose his freak experiment and play-act as God without any respect for the country's, traditions or values."

Things are not developing as I would wish. www.cnn.com/2025/02/18/p...

There are actions in: Atlanta, GA Austin, TX Boston, MA Chicago, IL Los Angeles, CA St. Paul, MN Newark, NJ New Brunswick, NJ New Haven, CT New York, NY Philadelphia, PA Portland, OR Seattle, WA State College, PA St. Louis, MO and Washington, DC if you can make one of these actions, please join! 🧪

i really wish the media took the online world seriously because these people are all fucking nazis

Congress controls the pursestrings...

Feels like I'm missing something. Even setting aside the clear corruption and conflict of interest, why would SpaceX know how to "overhaul air traffic control"? Is the knowledge required to launch a rocket every few months really transferable to managing 7,500 planes in the air?

Now that musk is saying he’s doing the DOGE stuff “because the globalists have plotted a Great Replacement in which they use government handouts to buy votes from illegal immigrants and urban blacks” maybe we don’t have to act like this is about deficits or cost cutting anymore

If he didn’t want more money (power) why in the fuck is he still working?

This is good info, people need to be aware of this stuff. *However, important context: the vast majority of Tesla stock Vanguard owns is via its index funds. Eg, the Vngrd 500 Index fund VFIAX seeks track the S&P 500. Tesla is over 2% of the index, and therefore the fund owns about $31bln of Tesla

Social media has really killed the mystique of evil, there are so many books about the psychology of Nixon or Stalin but we all know for a fact that Elon hates his father and his dick doesn’t work

i mean just listen to them, they consider "illegal immigration" in and of itself to be a crime, people think "oh they're deporting murderers" no, just their coming here is the crime to them

Israel has violated the ceasefire in Gaza 266 times since it came into effect on January 19, killing at least 132 people, Palestinian security sources have told Al Jazeera. 🔴 LIVE updates: aje.io/dh48s1

Since there is a law against naming military bases after Confederate traitors, I can only assume that Pete Hegseth is celebrating the renaming of Fort Liberty after Alvin Bragg—the D.A. whose office secured a 34-count conviction against felon Trump.

Remember when Trump talked about shithole countries.

I was talking to a friend today about how much better off you are if you just assume satire is dead and people post utterly bonkers bullshit entirely straight-faced, and this is some real proof of concept shit right here bsky.app/profile/kran...

Well TBF off-roading for the median Cybertruck owner is getting drunk at 11am after your family court hearing and then driving into a crowded public park

Shout out to Lamar Odom.

WHOA, indeed

Update.

Neo-Nazi terrorist and convicted mass murderer Anders Breivik, who killed 77 people in Norway in 2011, cited this same Napoleon quote in his manifesto.

Possibly #1 on my Temecula list.

This is bananas. I can't wait for the next episode.

Great news for Freelancers working in the State of CA! The Freelance Worker Protection Act went into effect January 1, 2025. This law requires freelancers to be paid 30 days after completion of work for any job over $250, & gives them the ability to take legal action against clients who don’t pay.

We are in a dangerous time but here are two important facts: 1. Trump's base of support is a minority. 2. That base is going to shrink as his agenda is enacted. The opposition is the majority. No moping allowed. www.hamiltonnolan.com/p/they-are-a...

This is inhuman and disgusting on a level that should break everyone's heart.

These dummies could have had a compliant corporate Dem with literal Uber lobbyists on her staff and instead they did school shootings and measles

The shortest foray into this completely unhinged sphere has left me reeling.

"Everything is a conspiracy when you don't know how anything works" should have to run as a nonstop chyron on every US news channel.

LOUISIANA: “Half a billion dollars to send thousands of kids to private schools… voucher students fare worse on state tests than public school peers…” Same story everywhere. But @GovBillLee does not care. #LeesVoucherScam www.nola.com/news/educati...

Please do!!!

Truth and propaganda are not necessarily opposed! Propaganda is just a charged term for emotionally engaging information. FDR is one of the most successful propagandists in executive history, and most of it was good (from our perspective)!

[The first half of the NBA season is officially in the books, so what better time to re-share the NBA starter packs! Both of them have been heavily updated/refreshed over the last month; there are now over 100 new people in them between 1 & 2, so check them out!] Pack 2: bsky.app/starter-pack...

the perfect picture to illustrate what might well be the apex of plutocracy in human history

I know I’ll never get it but I’ll die waiting for that personal apology from every “centrist” who worried about liberal censorship.

what's it going to do, hurt his credibility? is someone going to think he will harm children? (god I hate this place.. the US.. earth)
