Reporter: If you could speak directly to Elon Musk, what would you say? Rep. Jasmine Crockett: Fuck off.

Computer. Enhance!

The most comfortable people in the world (in the history of the world?) have made themselves insane on the computer

Channing Frye: "Nostalgia is killing the NBA. The ’90s basketball era with Jordan and Kobe was not as clean as you think. Y’all forget that Jordan left the league for 2 years. Y’all forget that Kobe—RIP—quit on his team in the playoffs and refused to shoot the basketball" youtu.be/JzTKlPLs1lM?...

This morning at Dept of Housing and Urban Development (HUD) HQ in DC as mandatory return to office began, this video played on loop for ~5 mins on screens throughout the building, per agency source. Building staff couldn’t figure out how to turn it off so sent people to every floor to unplug TVs.

I suspect this is a HUGELY underestimated factor in radicalization. If you look at, say, QAnon boards, it’s not really folks looking for scapegoats for their dire material circumstances. It’s middle-class people with boring lives who want to imagine they’re in The Parallax View.

One of my best friends is from a sleepy, wealthy small town in the south-west of Germany. He said, so many of my parents’ neighbours are rich and bored, with little to complain about, and they’ve radicalised themselves at dinner parties and online. In their aimlessness, they’ve bonded over hate.

When OMB head Russ Vought talks about deliberate efforts to put federal employees "in trauma" and make them quit their jobs, he's talking about people like Michelle, recently fired by Musk/Trump. www.sfgate.com/california/a...

It is almost impossible to explain the sheer insanity of Elon Musk apparently having the capability to email the entire federal government evidently without getting approval from anyone—and, apparently, against the wishes of most Cabinet departments.

To me, a Nazi salute means, "I want to murder your family." There can be no irony about it: It puts deep anger and hatred in my heart to see it done and I will never forgive anyone who justifies or minimizes it.

The Secretary of Defense goes on tv to explain he is preparing to have the military break the law.

There's going to be news about a woman illegally detained and being forcely removed from a Coeur d'Alene Idaho Town Hall meeting taking place at the high school by men that would not identify themselves wearing plain clothes because she opposed the republican viewpoints. youtube.com/shorts/hhJdH...

someone caught a photo of elon’s eyes when he pulled his sunglasses down at CPAC, and he looks like one of those starkly drawn cutaways in ren and stimpy

Hello friends. I know times are dark but it is incredibly important not to lose hope. And, this week there are signs of hope and it paramount we recognize that hope, not let up and build. A thread on this if I may. You may appreciate this on a Friday. Come along with me. 🧵 (1/10)

Fuck this guy

AOC speaking to a thousand NYC federal workers and allies about the urgency of resisting Musk 🔥🔥🔥

Lol

If Trump wants to call himself a king and every Republican is on board with it then it leaves a wide opening for one party to stand for the spirit of the nation, simple as

Feels like this a lot of the time

In South Carolina, tonight: “I have an ectopic pregnancy. It’s on my ovary. They’re making me risk my ovary even though I don’t want to. They refuse to do the surgery.” #ForcedBirthNation Original Post: www.tiktok.com/t/ZT2yCKENt/

“It’s not that they cannot—they will not. When it was Sanders or an individual who demanded even a modest change in policy on Gaza, they brought out the knives. When it’s Musk and his apartheid army of incels, they wield sporks…”

Let’s see what motivates this guy to join DOG…oh

What I've been trying to emphasize to everyone is this is truly not a progressive/corporate wing thing. EVERY Senator is giving unanimous consent on everything. Not a single progressive needs permission to take charge of the situation. None of them are choosing to.

I'm old enough to remember when conservatives thought participation trophies were a sign of the "pussification of America"

lmao

Democrats, in my opinion, should not act like a bottom-tier presidential win, 4th or 5th weakest since 1960, voids the Constitution. They should, in my opinion, say we're done voting for anything until Trump remembers that the people run this government through Congress. And he must follow the law.

Excuse me while I vent for a moment SHE IS THE APPROPRIATIONS CHAIR. SHE CAN SUBPOENA OFFICIALS, HOLD TELEVISED HEARINGS, HOLD UP ANYONE’S FUNDING, ZERO OUT THE WHITE HOUSE’S FUCKING ICE CREAM AND DIET COKE BUDGET, AND ENFORCE THE APPROPRIATIONS LAWS THAT ARE THE SOURCE OF HER PERSONAL POWER.

The federal government built the internet and bankrolled nearly every tech innovation of the last 60+ years, one way or the other, from the “mother of all demos” in 1968 to Biden’s bailing out billionaire VC nitwits who did a run on Silicon Valley Bank in 2023

Absolute insanity

ain’t pretty, but this is what the big tent looks like! we’re gonna need the dummies

The men carrying out Musk's coup are Akash Bobba, Edward Coristine, Luke Farritor, Gautier Cole Killian, Gavin Kliger, and Ethan Shaotran. Make them famous. And, eventually, when possible, arrest them and charge them with multiple felonies. www.wired.com/story/elon-m...

Absurd
