Very much like the Iraq War, somehow "I thought Elon Musk was a genius until a couple years ago" is now considered the more respectable and serious opinion than "I knew he was a fraud for a decade and was never fooled by him."

Help, I’ve been radicalized by Bluesky to be a constitution-following fan of freedom, equal rights, and rule of law

This is not how you cut waste. This IS how you cut oversight.

It's kind of crept up on me over time, but I've come to absolutely loathe the phrase "god tier"

Trump's lawyers are absolutely flailing in the courts right now

real monkey's paw that we invented the ability to hold the sum of all human knowledge in the palm of your hand and then a few years later we're turning it into your stupid friend that pretends to know the answer to every question

You have to talk about all of it, simply and passionately. Most of all relentlessly.

Oh damn Prime actually published their failed chatgpt prompt in the description

Hey, is TikTok still illegal? Like, in the sense of the law just being ignored?

Love me some “valid attacks” on things they won’t and can’t even define

This is where we are now: An elementary school at Fort Campbell has removed all books from its library that so much as *allude* to slavery or the civil rights movement. The wholesale erasure of history in real time.

I think a lot of us have a difficult time defining our own political beliefs because, instead of facing questions like, “What are the societal impacts of redistribution of wealth?” we instead must more frequently ask, “Where do I stand on The Snyder Cut?”

I feel like I'm going insane every time I see a media story about DOGE that doesn't also mention the fact that the Government Accountability Office exists and performs the exact function that DOGE pretends to, only in a credibly constitutional, non-partisan, and conflict-of-interest-free manner

History buffs will know that every authoritarian leader eventually converges on some version of: "I *am* the state. I can not break the law, I am the law, the law is instantiated in me." Our march to authoritarianism so far has been excruciatingly by-the-book. Hitting every beat. No surprises.

my take is that your willingness to accept this gulf of america nonsense is an indicator of your willingness to accept much worse things coming from this administrator

Hey, it's me at the final West Coast Dat Phan & Friends show! L-R: Katie Sullivan @sullikat.bsky.social, Dat Phan @datphancomedian.bsky.social, Nicole Blessing @nicoleblessing.com, Lynn Dilmani, "Fred W. Mustard" aka Superman's Pal Freek Van Ostrand @sullenfish.com

[BRIAN enters STEWIE'S room, covered in blood] STEWIE: Ooo, Brian, this is just like the time that I was

I would call this, in my professional opinion, "bad"

It might hurt my bottom line, but I’m probably going to stop posting art to Twitter entirely and I suggest you do too. Not only is the site actively putting a “Okay, now remix this” button below art (and elevating them above the OP with a QRT) and it’s false flagging original art as made by AI.

this is literally the entire budget for Medicaid btw. this is a literal death sentence for millions of people

‘You Can’t Let This Happen,’ Says Fundraising Email From Sitting U.S. Congressperson

Remember when AI researchers used to be like, "this is a neural network, isn't it cool? It can say DOG or CAT if you show it a DOG or a CAT :)" and now they're like, "we're gonna make God before China does" okay

My people, we are ready. I will greet you with Danbo.

My VPN works

Here's the acting head of FEMA just unliterally deciding that Article I is fake earlier today. The Constitution is not in effect.

The American Bar Association has just called upon every attorney, regardless of their political views, to join them & stand up for the rule of law & at minimum insist that our government "follow the law." Every lawyer has an ethical responsibility to do so. www.americanbar.org/news/abanews...

And it looks like it’s official. Trump is ignoring court orders. The rubicon has been crossed.

This is it. This is the take.

saw another skeet full of replies from white liberals saying we should leave people in red states to die millions of Black, brown, and poor people live in red states and either don’t want to leave or can’t leave. disrespectfully, fuck all of you who leave people to drown. gross.

gritty has seized control of the federal government

Today, we at Google have a new product: what if you could could ask an app a question? Oh, we do that already? Well, what if we were a little bit worse at it? What if we also sometimes gave you egregiously wrong information? And what if it cost a billion dollars? Still not interested? It's mandatory

Yeah, well I had a bit of a victory too. Caught the Chrono Trigger rat on mobile second try.
