doing an akira slide into the room on a horse, breaking all of its legs

the guy who played big pete on pete and pete is so cool

it's always obvious who views politics as a game they're trying to win when they equate the people who are actively dismantling the welfare state with a chainsaw to the people who want everyone to have healthcare and food

I think if you don't want to buy things from major retailers today or any day that is great, and I would also love for everyone to remember that successful movements usually need to involve labor, and to start thinking of yourself as a worker first and a consumer second

Amazing that the same book has been used by priests and nuns to explain their moral imperative to die protecting socialists being hunted by CIA backed militias and also by dudes in McMansions who think the creator of the universe considers it a priority to beat neurodivergent 8 year olds

saw some people complaining about the jesse singal follower labeler which motivated me to finally subscribe to it bsky.app/profile/did:...

Just imagine if someone was forced by the powers that be to be officially labeled in a way they didn't consent to and don't think is accurate or reflects who they are!

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.

what the moment calls for is fighters instead of gormless boobs who should have retired 30 years ago. policy differences can be hashed out later, everyone can agree that Musk and Trump must be stopped and democracy restored

This is the right message. What we're witnessing is a socioeconomic sickness. Megalomania brought on by severe concentration of wealth. It will destroy everything if it's not addressed

100% and I need everyone to understand right now that there is only one solution: people need to start getting their asses kicked in public again

What did they do to us

been struggling with the idea that all of human history, all of the destruction, the suffering, the brutality, the razing, the pillaging, the salting of the beautiful fields of this planet has all led up to this. guys burning down everything built over that ruin just so they can do a coy nazi salute

Authoritarianism suffocates not only political life but also economic life. Instead of the best products rising to the top, people get coerced into using Dogshit because the ceo of dogshit enterprises owns the government

I love that half the internet is now shit like this

[threatening a baby] here comes the airplane

counterpoint: no they aren't, they're going to come up with increasingly intricate and convoluted explanations for why things aren't lining up with their expectations of reality. Stop waiting for people to "come to their senses", you're not going to get to say "I told you so" to anyone

I love consumer education! Also, unrelated, did you know that Michael's and small hobby shops sell tiny spray cans of paint that fit in a purse? They are really cute for painting model cybertrucks.

Our guy walks into a totally unfamiliar environment with the craziest possible shit happening all around him and still somehow manages to make the correct moral choice like 85 times in a row.

there is simply no reaction to seeing this news other than

seems like it is a big deal that the unifying ideology of the doge team is neo nazism

CBS is one of a dozen U.S. outlets that responded to authoritarianism by shifting coverage further right, which is why we're calling rounding up minorities in the middle of the night and dumping them in random countries they've never been to a "breakthrough"

going back in time to tell myself this image is going to end the human race

Meta illegaly downloaded 80+ terabytes of books from LibGen, Anna's Archive, and Z-library to train their AI models. In 2010, Aaron Swartz downloaded only 70 GBs of articles from JSTOR (0.0875% of Meta). Faced $1 million in fine and 35 years in jail. Took his own life in 2013.

tired homophobia without any material resistance? That’s Democrats baby!

FUCK YOU, MAKE ME

Sorry if it's cringe or virtue signaling or whatever but unqualified and unconditional love and support to every trans person on earth. You will win and I will help you.

i am 100% certain that they are weekend at bernie-ing trump and just handing him papers to sign, the content of which is determined by whoever happens to want something to happen

I can't tell you how many people told me it was impossible for Joe Biden to remove one guy running the post office

Wired is killing it. Also, the Musk goons being afraid of being identified says to me how tenuous all this shit is. If they have to face any actual resistance they can be defeated. They should have people yelling in their faces their names and addresses and that they're going to be arrested someday

the failure to drive these freaks from political and really all social life in this country is a failure so profound it should be the only line in the obituary of everyone even remotely responsible, including but not limited to dem leaders. instead they remain unanimous picks to lead their caucuses

i think it's super cool that the government is run by the klan right now

i sat next to the wallet inspector every day in the park. we became friends, so i assumed the best when he asked to inspect my wallet

there were hundreds of opportunities for denocrats to act to prevent trump from returning to office over the past four years and they fucking whiffed every one. now that he's back they're all sitting quietly while he destroys the country. this is of course the Left's fault

my outsider perspective on US politics is that it seems like i spend 4 years getting told the democrats can't do the thing because they need just one more vote, and then the republicans get in and can do whatever they want because half of the democrats vote with them

There's a misconception about who uses Medicaid. 42% of Medicaid enrollees are children; 47% if you include CHIP. And just under 40% of children are covered by Medicaid. Everyone deserves healthcare, but when Republicans cut Medicaid, they're attacking a hell of a lot of kids.

It's hard to know what to say or whether it's even worth adding to the doom - what I will say is buy your trans friends' weird zine, their album, their art game - buy them a beer or a soda or a meal - give them some ko-fi money for doing absolutely nothing. We gotta protect trans kids and adults.

God bless
