So in saying that he's acting under instructions, when he is inevitably pantsed for all this, will there be an "I was just following orders" defence? (Yes, the answer is yes)

I can't believe this is a statement that needs to be made but all right, let's do this: A person living with special needs is NOT "karma" for that person being born as a consequence of infidelity. #Disability is not moral punishment or failure on the part of a parent. Get a grip.

“…immediately pause all alliances, agreements and cooperation with the United States until Parliament is able to adequately assess whether our countries share values and that existing relationships between the nations are considered in the best interest of Australian citizens.” 👏

“Money saving” by lining their own pockets, of course. The entire country got scammed, again.

An Instagram account claiming to be Brian Laundrie’s sister Cassie is alleging that her brother is the real victim.

It’s not exactly advertised that Dr. Phil is an exec producer on this series and it boggles the mind why anyone would want to be involved with him in any way, shape, or form

The ABC busted: the #ABC dropped the #YouGov bombshell, except they hid the real bomb in the national closet, hoping it wouldn’t be found. YouGov sounds like a legitimate government institution, but it's a British-owned RW company that works to promote RW issues and leaders. #auspol #aupol

Things a convicted criminal x34 says

“The democratic world must therefore regard and treat it [the United States] as it does the other non-democracies: not as an ally to be consulted but as an adversary to be contained.” www.theglobeandmail.com/opinion/arti...

Bridget Jones would definitely trot around the house on a hobby horse while bellowing 'Pink Pony Club', whether her kids were there or not

Dave: Donates a custom signed Epiphone DG-335 to benefit LA fire victims, does at least TWO overnight cooks for a local charity helping those displaced, gets a legendary band back together for a charity concert Dickheads: wHy DiDn'T hE dOnAtE a GiBsOn?!? wHaT a LoSeR....!.

The real MeToo “cancel culture” was what happened to the women and other victims who came forward. They were retraumatized, harassed, humiliated, sued, fired, and blacklisted. Then they were the subject of a revisionist history that MeToo went “too far” and deserved a reactionary backlash

It's stunning to me how many people still don't know that Fauxmoi is the opposite of respectful conversation and will block you if you breathe a word that goes against their groupthink. Imploring another user not to post inflammatory gossip without verifiable sources? That's a "personal attack".

I am going to think about 'the sin of empathy' for the rest of my life and get angry every time I do. I mean that is just mustache twirling villainous shit, that would sound stupid as fuck coming out of any villain of fiction. I mean even Doctor Evil couldn't pull that line off.

I’ve been attempting chair-accessible workouts to try and gently rebuild strength, and to just be able to do SOMETHING to improve my health. So far i’ve snagged a tendon in my ankle, got a cramp around my knee (?), and today, flung my arm out too far and pulled something there.

This is the way forward. Legal requirement to default to chron feed of opted-in content, or you can’t sell ads in the territory. Algo must be at least one click away on all socials. This is necessary. Social media isn’t going away, and the gravity of algo feeds is fascist content.

when accessibility is also ART

An important complement thought: so much of the art and science that’s survived, so many lives lived and loved, the whole human pageant, etc., has to have happened while some pretty intense History was on, so show up as the moment demands but tend those gardens too

Even one person saying “let’s just see how it goes” and “just shut it out” is one too many and the very last thing anyone anywhere should be doing right now. What a privilege, what a bloody luxury to be so unaffected that you get to choose to kick back and watch the world burn.

🚨NEWS: Documents show USAID’s inspector general was investigating a public-private partnership with Elon Musk’s company just before Musk shut the agency down. USAID web pages mentioning Musk’s company have suddenly vanished from the agency’s website.

To instrumentalize what my sister is saying below: every time someone says DEI say “you mean civil rights?” Every time someone says they are against woke reply “oh so you’re a segregationist!” Words have meaning! Don’t allow that nonsense to stand.

research proposals are being flagged (and reported to be automatically rejected) if they contain certain keywords: "Women", "female", "disability", "diverse backgrounds, "trauma", "systemic", "equity", "exclusion", "gender", "implicit bias", "intersectional", "multicultural", "oppression" (1)

The Treasury Department right now. People are turning out against Musk and DOGE staging a takeover of the Treasury’s payment system. This crowd is big. The whole block is packed. “Lock him up,” everyone yells.

For all the Tesla charging stations that are popping up around town, i've yet to see one Tesla in the wild that isn't an Uber

Go ahead, Dan Zimmerman. By all means, explain in detail on your public profile to be preserved online forever, the exact violence you wish to have incurred on another person. If you're so emboldened by the new regime, put it out there under your name, see how that goes for you.
