the best feeling is riding on an empty bike path at night, especially one near an ocean.

Hey CBC, don’t do this. It’s not a “proposal.” Having different wording on your website won’t diminish the harm done by having Canada’s national broadcaster treat this as a serious conversation (see below for how it’s being portrayed on the relatively sane CPAC…). Pull out of this disaster now.

There are a few places in this country that serve as testing grounds for conservative tactics, places where you can see the future before it arrives elsewhere. Coeur D'Alene, Idaho is one of those places -- I've written about it before This video should scare the absolute shit out of everyone

extremely hot take, smelling like cigarettes on public transit in 2025 is antisocial behavior. please consume nicotine in a way that doesnt make everyond around you feel sick ty its not the 90s anymore

Luigi Mangione for Pope let's make this happen ppl

the reunification of germany was a mistake

It may not be cool or hip in some circles, but we legitimately do need a massive amount of people to run for office. Flood the school boards, councils, county seats, state legislatures, Congress, etc. Big changes at the top happen when the ground shifts at the bottom. And that can start now.

coming this holiday season

this is an act of unspeakable violence. it benefits no one, it doesn’t move a number on a balance sheet. it only guarantees that every one of these incarcerated transgender people will be tortured.

woke up way earlier than i ever do on weekends to do some dune grass restoration. had a blast doing it

I wish more people were talking about egg prices as less of a “muh egg prices!” thing and more about the fact that there is an organized egg cartel that is illegally price gouging and almost certainly illegally price fixing and reaping massive, gigantic profits.

Another dataset I like is from the National Atmospheric Deposition Program, which has maps of the US that show we fixed the acid rain problem by implementing stricter emission controls on power plants. nadp.slh.wisc.edu/maps-data/nt...

This is great & all but notice that Dems aren't putting forth an alternative, meaning when they get back into power they're not gonna do squat to give people something other than the status quo that led to this moment

35% of the way there in 32 days, so that tracks www.project2025.observer

trump build egg wall

What the fuck is wrong with Democrats

I wrote a thing! thank you to @derspekter.bsky.social for the opportunity and equally importantly — the editing

I'm gonna keep reposting examples of people not taking shit because it's important for us to see that you can, simply, reject the shit. Say "Uh... no no no, we will not be tolerating that."

Luigi is gonna be the first guy to be depicted in a biopic where the actor who plays him is LESS hot

were going to obliterate Edison and PG&E o7

It is kind of funny that we're at the point where if this shit was happening in another country, the CIA would force a regime change.

There’s something happening in this country.

They want, among many other things, to break the Black middle class.

pedo-con theory

lets go more blowback pod

Blowback Season 6's trailer is out and its going to be about Angola- I'm very excited. I'm a big fan of the program and Noah Kulwin is a good friend. No one seems to have posted it on Bluesky both because it has only appeared on twitter and its more than a minute long (damn Bluesky!), so I will

elon musk at cpac was so fucking weird you guys I know this reads like a parody but I literally just wrote down what happened www.theverge.com/elon-musk/61...

There is a type of like pop science journalism geared toward educated liberals (your Kara swishers, your freakonomics, etc) that I think has the potential to rot your brain nearly as much as Joe Rogan type stuff
