i am not normalizing rape culture but i am normalizing talking about rape like it’s a horrible thing normal people deal with, and honestly that makes people madder than normalizing rape culture

Sorry if being aware of that upsets you or makes you uncomfortable, I guess.

For us, it's just fucking life.

Illustration of a dark haired woman laying in a Arizona landscape. She is as large as the mountains behind her and lays facing the sky. Above her is a peachy cloudy sky with a large pink sun. Under her is a scrub desert landscape with brush and cacti in bloom

The plot to enslave America

Silicon Valley’s Favorite Doomsaying Philosopher Nick Land believes that digital superintelligence is going to kill us all. In San Francisco, his followers ask: What if, instead of trying to stop an A.I. takeover, you work to bring it on as fast as ...

We should be talking a lot more about how the San Francisco tech scene is populated by a strange cult of doom acceleration nerds who fantasize about using computers to destroy humanity.

Hail to the thief

Taking page from Adams, Mayor Mamdani proposes NYC library cuts Library advocates called the mayor’s proposed budget “terrible.”

Don't appreciate the most prominent socialist mayor in the country's spokesperson using the phrase "achieving efficiencies and cutting waste" when it comes to THE PUBLIC LIBRARIES that his budget did not even fund sufficiently to keep up with inflation.

I too am curious what the red line could have been in this scenario.

The Minneapolis Resistance Will Do Your Laundry From free airline miles to washing clothes, Minnesotans are keeping each other safe from ICE—and leaving a blueprint for the rest of us.

I hadn't cried about how much I love Minneapolis in a few days, so this was a good one to read:

"Minnesotans will continue to keep Minnesotans safe until we rid the state of the federal occupation, just like lake ice is weakened by springtime sunshine and subsumed by the water below."

"Doctors suggested Ethan’s parents could take him to Greenville Memorial Hospital, a larger facility with more specialists. [...] his parents decided to take him home..."

Take their other kids, too.

Awful

this type of thinking is hard to fathom but the thing you have to remember is that these people want to be martyrs more than they want to have alive children

I've been saying it a lot, but these deaths line up with what happened in early concentration camps during other regimes: Deaths from poor conditions, disease, or abuse. These deaths are not accidental. They are the direct result of a camp system that is designed to harm those being imprisoned.

Disabled people & those who cannot afford to get Covid deserve to be able to see art in public and make art in public.

Screaming Head is a Videogame

Wow the exact same amount he was suing the IRS for. He just took it. Not only impeachable but [Redacted] as well.

If you have a problem with Newsom doing this, you should have a problem with Mamdani doing this.

I don't give a fuck how cute or charming or adorable he is. This is unconscionable.

"Those fluent in the good grammar of civility have deployed decorum to mask agendas of cruelty," said the guy who stood around smiling for celebrity selfies with Trump.

I'm going to actively begin the process of migrating off of Substack to Ghost.

I have a bestseller Substack, in the top 50 for world politics, but I can't justify using this platform.

Nothing should change for my subscribers except possibly those with iOS subscriptions.

I'll keep you posted :)

ICE is still here in MN

The “Drawdown” is a distraction. Keep the pressure on!

- Demand your Senators hold ICE accountable
- Keep funding mutual aid
- Be ready to help their next target

Norms and traditions are dead. Civility theater is dead. Dead dead dead. We may not like that, but it’s indisputable. Norms mean nothing except surrender if only one side honors them! And it makes YOUR voters rightly wonder: are you oblivious? Cowardly? Complicit? Some combination of all three?

Any Democrat who sits through that fascist turd’s lies like a potted plant is a dangerous tool. It’s not even constitutionally required that you show up, or that this be a TV show! Presidents used to submit it to Congress by letter. Either don’t show up or use the dumb TV show to make some NOISE.

This is horrific. I have spent time with people who entered as refugees in the last admin and the fact that the state is pursuing them when they came here hoping to finally escape that is sickening.

I know a lot of people who think they’re too smart for propaganda and that has absolutely nothing to do with it. I would say *most* propaganda I notice is directed at people who consider themselves smart

and then unlearning it is a long and extremely painful process most people don’t want to undergo because it usually involves cutting very important ties

I think a thing a lot of people don’t understand is that propaganda does not convince anyone of anything through argumentation. It’s about frequency, not force. You get exposed to it enough and it changes how you think.
