Hey, you know how CBS News is getting turned into a right-wing propaganda hose? If this goes through, the same thing will happen to CNN. However bad you think CNN currently is, it'll get so much worse.

insane watching so many people in both parties act like charlie kirk was some champion of dialogue and free speech. dude went around on campuses antagonizing students and farming reactions for youtube. his last-ever video was entitled "charlie kirk hands out huge Ls at UC san diego." he was a troll.

Me: it might reflect something that my favorite song from this album is about road kill
Husband: … what??
Tries to show husband where he sings about the light leaving the road kill’s eyes
Husband: he’s not saying anything

Zohran Mamdani is saying things like “poverty is a policy choice and politicians have a duty to their constituents to make their lives affordable” and it is making a lot of politicians very very scared that they may actually have to start doing some actual service in their public service jobs.

Every April, we celebrate Independent Bookstore Day to remind us how vital indie bookstores are to our communities and society. It’s a day of joy and solidarity, and significant financial impact for these bookstores. This year, Amazon is undercutting that with a “Book Sale” on the same day—a calculated move by a company that has already put half the bookstores in the country out of business, controls over 60% of the market and sells far more books than all indie bookstores combined. The people at Amazon responsible for the timing of their "Book Sale" should be ashamed, but they are shameless.

Man, this is a pretty fucking gross move from Amazon, huh? Good on @bookshop.org for not mincing words, though:

People sometimes ask "what are the crimes" and let me tell y'all, as a lawyer, that intentionally copying, altering, destroying, or disrupting government computer systems is super-duper illegal if you don't have a spotless paper trail authorizing it, which none of these DOGE people do.

I would be using one hand, because the other would be needed for calling a lawyer to sue Delta so far into oblivion that DEI would be back on the menu.

Oh my god

It’s a great pun in Chinese, since it’s pronounced very similarly (in some dialects identically) to an old title for the Emperor:

万税爷 wànshuìyé vs 万岁爷 wànsuìyé (the “Lord of Ten Thousand Years”)

I’m homesick.
Thinking about how I miss being close to my siblings (proximity-wise). I wish I could just drive to them and grab some cheap fast food.
Even if I could do that, I’m not the only one who moved out. I hope I can see them all together soon.

"AI is coming, its inevitable" no its not you sniveling weirdo. how are those 3D TVs going. how are NFT markets looking these days. Seen anything cool in the metaverse lately?

anyone who says we need to resign to using it, that itll be here whether we like it or not, is a feckless dipshit.

Once again my brain is gnawing on the bars of its enclosure because I so desperately want to do something creative and I am merely surviving this hellscape

A screenshot of a post on X by user Andy Kim (@AndyKimNJ ). The post reads: "I introduced a bill to ban owning of individual stocks across all 3 branches. After what we saw over last few days, Americans deserve certainty that gov officials, Congress, others aren’t trying to profit from their jobs." Below the post, there is a snippet of an article from The New York Times with the headline: "Trump’s Encouragement of Stock Investors Draws Scrutiny." The subheading reads: "Was the president manipulating the market with his comments, as his critics say, or reassuring Americans, as the White House maintains?"

This is the way.

We have 1.5 years before midterms and 3.5 years to get our voting affairs in order. Get ya passports, make sure everything is in order. Those in need of assistance, let's assist them. We can fight voter suppression as best as we can

we are living in fascism right now

One way we can save the country is to continue bullying Elon until something cool happens

THE ISSUE IS NOT THAT THEY ACCIDENTALLY ADDED A JOURNALIST, IT'S THAT THEY'RE DOING WAR PLANS ON AN UNSECURE APP AND ALSO IT'S CLEAR JUST KIND OF GUESSING WHAT PRESIDENT BRAINMELT WANTS BECAUSE HE'S NOT CAPABLE OF TELLING THEM

One of the smallest acts of resistance you can do right now that will do very much to signal that you are on the side of reason and democracy is where a mask. Start protecting yourself and others from the pandemic. it’s also a very subtle show of defiance and community.

Darkly funny that vaccines have worked so well for so long that folks have straight forgotten what it means to catch a real disease that could kill you instead of mildly inconvenience you.
