Unironically they should buy up the domains for about 60 defunct local newspapers in swing states. Hire two reporters to write almost exclusively about highschool sports and new restaurants opening with every 10th article about how the local GOP is screwing over people.

Came to the comments to say this

My 2014 Kindle Voyage is still kicking but I’d LOVE an updated waterproof model with USB-C & dark mode. I like some of the features on my wife’s 11th gen Paperwhite but not enough to give up the haptic page turn buttons.

An aerial picture of Pacific Palisades, one of the wealthier neighborhoods in Los Angeles. All of the houses have been burned to the ground.

This is Los Angeles.

Capitalism is humanity making war on itself in slow motion. The climate crisis is just one aspect of this catastrophe.

No solutions will come from corporations or politicians. We have to take action to defend each other and address the root causes.

I used to think that when global warming truly began to bite, deniers would face reality & we could act. Now I think it's more likely it will lead to a kind of fascism that will respond to global warming by, like, executing everyone who says global warming is real.

liberals, browbeating leftists: democracy is at risk from a uniquely evil fascist who is going to change everything if he wins and takes office!!

liberals, this afternoon: omg yay peaceful transfer of power :3

Why are we ignoring the Fourteenth Amendment-Section 3?

I’ve watched all of these except Slow Horses, gotta check that one out!

“Before mass leaders seize the power to fit reality to their lies, their propaganda is marked by its extreme contempt for facts as such, for in their opinion fact depends entirely on the power of man who can fabricate it.”

- Hannah Arendt

The state has a monopoly on political violence.

People think that societies that carried out mass atrocities were inherently evil when the harsh reality is that they are just like us given a certain set of conditions. That's what makes it so hard when you spot the patterns and everyone ignores it because their vanity won't allow them to see it.

The USA spends $4tn on Healthcare.

The Health Insurance companies made $1.39tn in profit last year.

That is 35% of your Health Insurance payments poured straight into their pockets.

Thinking of the parents of autistic kids who voted republican and are only now seeing what dissolving the Department of Education would mean for their kids.

Policy and regulation are pains in the ass, and sometimes very poorly conceived. But the are attempts to restrain something bad.

Album art of Dungen’s EP “Otis”

What is going on right now?! Did Swedish psych-rockers Dungen seriously just release an EP of Jungle/DnB bangers?!?

The EP is called “Otis” and it’s on bandcamp/spotify

All jokes aside it's really fucked up to see so many people on here celebrating murder. No one here is the judge of who deserves to live or die. That's the job of the AI algorithm the insurance company designed to maximise profits on your health and no one else

“Nobody is above the law,” said the man committing genocide, threatening the International Criminal Court for his allies, pardoning his criminal son and using propaganda to lie about it all

What-aboutism is lame on both sides. We’ve got democrats defending corruption because “their side does it too”.

How about we hold the Trumps AND Bidens accountable for their crimes?

November 27, 1964: 60 years ago today, cameras rolled for the very first time on the very first #StarTrek story, the pilot film "The Cage."

Things aren't complicated, we have very rich people doing very bad things to make huge profits that they don't need.

And that is about 99.9% of the evil in the world.

Sarah McBride: "It is an attempt to distract ... Every single time we hear them say the word 'trans,' look what they're doing with their right hand. Look at what they're doing to pick the pocket of American workers, to fleece seniors by privatizing Social Security and Medicare."

There is a 30 year gap between books 6 & 7 so I am holding on to hope that 10-15 years from now, #TheExpanse gets renewed and they bring everyone back!

Reading & listening to a book have separate, distinct advantages.

We can recognize that people who use stairs get fitness benefits while also recognizing that the elevator is important for accessibility & convenient whether or not you need an accommodation.

They’ll both get you to the top floor!

Hey! I’m TheMoldyFilters 😄
So happy to see you and so many Screaming Firehawks on here!

Don’t worry, we still have leftist infighting 😅

Just got my “2024 Recap” from YouTube Music, which is funny because I only use YouTube Music for stuff I don’t want on my Spotify Wrapped.
