we live in a society where corporations can just kill people outright and the media and police obediently declare it a suicide but if a CEO gets whacked in plain sight we must all take our hats off and bow our heads in respect for the Working Class Billionaire Hero.

This is absolutely terrible news. With the shifting regulatory climate (i.e., antivax ratfuckery), Moderna has withdrawn their application for their eagerly anticipated COVID-flu combo vaccine. This vaccine offered better protection than getting each shot separately. h/t @merz.bsky.social

the belief that it’s inevitable that as the youth gets older, the more left the country will swing needs to be thrown out. the kids will not “save us” if the kids aren’t welcome in the party that is supposedly on their side! the party needs to completely embrace the populist left

This is fucking wild. So I'm asking honestly because I really don't know. What is the mechanism or which branch enforces (or is supposed to) the SCOTUS ruling that they can't do this?

Last year my wife had breast cancer and a double mastectomy. This morning, for the first time ever, she was challenged in the changing rooms at the swimming pool. Her breasts were not what make her a woman - but, breasts or not, she is entitled to dignity and protection from vigilantes.

this reminds me of a similarly incredible Terry Pratchett story - he switched publishers in Germany because his original publisher inserted soup ads directly into the text of his books and wouldn’t promise to stop doing it

Democrat Mega-Donors: What can we do to align voters with our platform?!? Let's take up a collection and solve this crisis! Analysts: They want us to tax the rich to cover societal needs. Mega-Donors: Where the hell do they think that money would come from!? Wait! Let's find a left Joe Rogan!

Normalize asking book authors who use AI to generate a slop image instead of hiring a real illustrator “what’s the name of the person who did this illustration?” And continuing to ask that it until they block you

in a sane world a response like this would raise a shitload of questions instead it is just considered an acceptable answer and the world just moves on to something else

Playing Warhammer is one of the most patriotic things you can do as a British person. I'd like an MP to state this in parliament. I don't even mind which faction says it.

Another friend was falling under the spell of fascist YouTubers - the only thing that broke that spell was showing him how much his rants were hurting the people who he loved and trusted. He was lonely, isolated, hooked on YouTube. What brought him back wasn't clever debate, it was human company.

Listening to @darksidedivas.bsky.social "Diva Republic-Into the Dark Part 8" and Stephanie's maniacal laughter while declaring "I was right!" in relation to a certain plot reveal gives me life!

for a franchise which repeatedly and forcefully takes a stance against societies turning everything over to artificial intelligence to get out of doing the hard work of being a person, it’s so depressing that Paramount’s marketing team has apparently never seen a Star Trek 💀

The extra-extreme members of the House Budget Committee voted "present" tonight so that the Medicaid-cuts-to-fund-tax-giveaways-for-the-rich bill could pass out of committee 17-16. Tomorrow, flood Capitol Hill switchboards to voice your opposition to this monstrosity. 202-224-3121.

Effectively eliminating Medicaid would be catastrophic in a myriad of ways that many people are blissfully unaware of because they don’t how deeply Medicaid is woven into our society. If you care about public health, jobs, hospitals, the economy, or just people being alive: Call your reps.
