it’s bizarre the extent to which this slur, specifically, has become such a touchstone for guys like this. am i supposed to believe that the people who don’t use it are like pining for it lol

Great thread.

Stand with trans Americans. You don’t have to understand everything about the transgender experience to know that Trump’s acts of humiliation and dehumanization are unjust and dangerous. www.thebulwark.com/p/stand-with...

This is so beautifully said. Hell yes, Pedro Pascal.

Ah I see the mixup. “Democracy dies in darkness” is the mission statement. Understandable mistake.

When they're putting heads on spikes, I hope they save room next to Elon and the others for whoever the motherfucker was who redesigned all the headlights in America to pierce the back of my brain.

Yeah. The notion that we're taxing the rich as much as we could without causing economic damage can't be squared with how the top 0.1% isn't just getting proportionally richer alongside everyone else, they're accumulating a greater share of all household wealth, from 8.6% in 1989 to 13.8% today.

Stand up for transgender people now or stand for nothing at all: lindseyadler.substack.com/p/the-urgenc...

In a just world there would only be one homan associated with ice that we would be discussing

I'm sorry if I sound like broken record, but there just isn't a more fun writer to read than Tyler Parker. If you aren't a fan yet, you will be once you read literally anything he's written.

Palm Springs is so good. One of the best comedies released this decade

idle Sunday thought: it woulda been fun if the USA Network Blue Sky shows had done some crossovers

This is the most wretched campaign of deliberate, explicit persecution the United States has perpetrated against a minority group in decades. Many of the most important people in politics and journalism are busying themselves trying to figure out how little to say or do about it.

I will vote for the first candidate who tells me they're going to make the biggest government possible. Reacher-sized agencies. Braun Strowman-level social benefits. Government so big it starts belching out National Parks and free healthcare. Chungus State.

Grocery store apple fritters always do the job

what. a. game. www.youtube.com/watch?v=0WbP...

maybe democrats accepting and adopting the bullshit claim that all government regulations and services are bad was a mistake, in retrospect 🙄

Okay that whole SNL special was pretty fucking great!

This means a lot to me as a person who gets laughed at when I say Worcester is actually kind of cool

Is it me, or is it unusually unclear what is being sold in a lot of these ads? Not all of them, but more than usual.

Noah Feldman don't piss me off!!

idk man, just really bummed out by how many people seem to have been chomping at the bit to be profoundly awful to everyone around them

Trans Rights Forever

Fully destroyed off that cookie gas

We have been in this bizarre spiral my entire life: 1. Democrats ignore right-wing radicalization to focus on economic issues. 2. Right-wing media accuses Democrats of being out-of-touch leftist elites. 3. Centrist media repeats right-wing framing. 4. Democrats double down on economic issues.

leaving the cruelty aside for just a minute it's absolutely humiliating to imagine being my age or older and getting excited because you think you've been given permission to say a bad word. what are you gonna do next, ride your tricycle past the end of the block

sci fi short story where the technocrat population increasingly uses ai for everyday tasks, believing they will evolve into a more advanced species. those who still learn and read are banished from society. over time the former transform into primitive beings, morlocks reliant on their machines

This world they're asking me to imagine is one where every interaction and activity is logged by Computer. We all know Computer can't feasibly do that. There are too many walks with my kids, plants planted, books read. They know that too. They want us to stop doing those things.

Really just a bad TV product at this point but no one seems interested in changing it.

1. Samoas 2. Everything else

The more I read this the more staggeringly stupid, immensely privileged, and willfully ignorant it becomes. "You must assume good faith on the part of fascist monsters seeking to eliminate constitutional rights that have been concrete for 150 years " is just stupid and utterly disqualifying.

i like the “entire literature” claim because it’s law literature, a completely fake thing

One thing about me is that I will fight Nazis until I’m six feet in the ground.

Sure, but they aren’t *foisted* on me. That’s the point.

Put Manny in the Hall you cowards

I don't know what anyone else is doing for the Inauguration—or MLK Day—this Monday, but AOC should start running for president.

“I knew that one day we might have to watch as capitalism and greed and bigotry led to a world where powerful men would burn it all down. I have been prepared for evil, for greed, for cruelty, for injustice – but I did not anticipate that the people in power would also be such huge losers…”

Now that's a headline.

genuinely thrilled to say that in a couple weeks I’ll be starting as Culture Editor at Defector. dream gig, can’t wait 😌

Websites are better than apps. The appification of the internet has led to its overall regression.
