Again: what happens here in Tennessee is coming your way next. Pay attention. They openly say they want this to end up at the Supreme Court. tennesseelookout.com/2025/03/06/t...

Wolves don't listen to the opinions of sheep. Also, wolf packs function more like a family with a strict hierarchy, meaning terms like "alpha" and "beta" are superfluous. Alpha male metalhead bravado hurt the scene and makes people not want to join.

1. They never learn. The US Department of Education has launched a snitch line for reporting "divisive ideologies" in schools. Previously, states doing this were flooded with meme submissions. The latest from writer S. Baum. Subscribe to support our journalism.

moving quietly, shitting inwardly

True story: a few years ago, I was being interviewed by a reporter for the New York Times. I mentioned the history of eviction statutes and how they tied into Jim Crow. The reporter asked "what's Jim Crow?" When I explained, the reporter didn't believe me and said the US wouldn't do that.

While everyone is focused on what DOGE is doing, Elon Musk is quietly spending hundreds of thousands of dollars on an April Wisconsin Supreme Court race. This race could have electoral consequences in future elections, like 2028 in a crucial swing state. Pay attention.

You've been murdered. Who do you want on the case?

Drake's album is not a bad album. I just don't know if I can tolerate fraudulency in art anymore. He made a bunch of love (lust?) songs that ring hollow. Because I know he's not making them for black women. I don't even know if he's making them for black men. Or even grown folks.

My husband and I made each other Valentine's Day cards. Celebrating our 10th Valentine's together was one to remember 💖

we don't believe

My husband and I want to start playing Magic the Gathering, and he wants to get a zombie commander deck. What kind of commander deck should I get to stand a fighting chance?

Crypto guy in 2014: Crypto will revolutionize finance and change how we interact with money Crypto in 2025:

Just realized the Tech Bros have become the Borg. “Assimilate and use our technology unquestioningly or we will destroy your society.”

UnitedHealth has hired a defamation law firm to go after social media posts criticizing the company

I'm calling it now that someone's unc from Philly is going to be black out drunk singing Fly Like An Eagle. The Chiefs are cooked.

No

So they're gutting the board of education and pushing for private Christian education. Here's a list of things I experienced at a small privately funded Christian school I attended between late middle and early high school. A thread:

The correlation of having autism and proudly identifying as a Nazi is a shining example that we really are entering a new age of anti-intellectualism. If you generally believe this, you are openly admitting that you know absolute shit about people on the spectrum.

anti-trans and anti-porn rhetoric are identical. both… frame as “protecting the vulnerable” erase personal agency from the people involved weaponize “concerned parents” use regret narratives are based in moral panic, fueled by misinformation and pseudoscience result in censorship laws

What have you been listening to recently?

I'll be honest, the "End Racism" thing in the endzones was the emptiest of empty gestures for an organization that chased a Black man out of the league for protesting the police murdering Black people, and where one of the teams in the Superbowl is named the Chiefs and whose fans do a Tomahawk Chop.

Well-off liberals still, to this day, think that you can get rid of fascism with ridicule, clever takes, and refusing to pay attention to them. But those are rules for the boogeyman, not for real monsters. With real monsters, the only way to handle them is head on. Or head off, as it were.

Doing a double feature of We Live in Time and I Saw the TV Glow disassembled me, hurled the pieces all across the room, then reassembled me into someone new.

Happy Black History Month!!! In celebration, I’ve compiled a list of some of my favorite pieces of Black media. Here’s a thread of 23 films and tv shows you should dive into: (It’s in no real particular order but my absolute favorites are definitely at the top lol)

I hope the people in the Big Booty Bitches music video are doing well.

Every disaster movie starts with scientists being ignored. Good thing we’re not doing that.

RFK Jr looks like dried out Squidward.

Chicago, baby.

The anger and rage that is being harnessed by the anti-DEI movement is anti-Blackness at its root. Just like “CRT” and “woke” and “BLM” These folks are using these terms as a placeholder for what they really mean. That’s why we must push back.

This new Travis Scott song is ass

The Heritage Foundation makes the Taliban look like like the PTA.

Is my frequent unsolid poops a sign I should enter my bottoming era 🚀
