A lot of blueskys loudest voices are the people who fled tumblr for twitter and then came here and are allergic to monetization. These people should not be listened to about basically anything.

everyone shoplifting from whole foods to get a little thrill in their dull and pointless lives is doing so because they know they don’t look like a person who security is going to keep an eye on, which is why rich people do a lot of the shit they do

The “oh sorry do you have a problem stealing from Jeff Bezos?!” people are so funny. As though it personally deducts a little from his personal bank account every time and he fumes about it and then goes “rats, well no choice but to totally absorb this loss”

Aaron does good work, but like everyone who spends their time consuming a diet of anti-Democratic media, he often blames Democrats for reality.

Trump told us he’d start wars and kill children. Democrats shouted it from the rooftops. Voters still voted for it, and said it was because of eggs.

An absolute madness rune for the Extremely Online Left is that people like Stephen Miller were deliberately echoing their talking points vastly overemphasising/lying about Liz Cheney's role in the Harris campaign because they correctly sensed that doing agitprop about it was demobilising.

Is Kevin Jonas The Reason Donald Trump Is President? This originally published on April 11, 2018 on Uproxx, but was deleted from the internet. A couple of interesting things happened after this published. I've never experienced a reaction to a piece qui...

Initially, “Is Kevin Jonas The Reason Donald Trump Is President?” was met with scorn, until people read it. I stand by this! And I watched way too many Celebrity Apprentice clips to have it erased from the internet. Now it’s back, with added commentary

Whoever it is at Capcom who keeps ensuring Leon in new Resident Evil games remains Leon Sex Kennedy probably deserves a raise.

I do think “Graham Platner was a bartender who personally served some DC pundits and reporters and was known to them” is a pretty big part of the skeleton key to unlocking how he got so much cash and media attention so fast and why they’re so determined to stay all in on him now

The whole "The Dems would be a center-right party in Europe!" line is so old and moldy that having it in your apartment would open you to eviction. This was true in like 1998, maybe, but the past 28 years have seen America move significantly to the left while Europe stagnated.

Let me make sure I'm all caught up for the day:

AI made Israel use its Jew magic to get the US to bomb an elementary school with a super illegal "double tap," except none of that is true and if you say otherwise this whole site will call you a genocide war criminal lover.

Did I miss anything?

It is a goddamn scathing condemnation of Bluesky that over 1,500 people looked at this brain-dead take and approved it solemnly like they just learned the secret of the universe.

Majorities? How do they work?

One thing I keep going back to with this shit is when, during The Great Catcalling Discourse of 2014, we saw all of these "How are men ever supposed to meet women if they can't just say 'What's up sugar tits?' to a lady walking down the street?" takes.

can you find one thing Graham Platner has said or done that is associated with the far right other than the Totenkopf tattoo or saying he's a big fan of an obscure antisemitic gun podcast called Valhalla VFT or joining Blackwater or

Why Did Dropout (a Progressive, Pro-Queer Indie Streaming Service) Risk a Cameo on ‘The Rookie’? Dropout CEO Sam Reich lent the world of 'Game Changer' to ABC's police procedural with Nathan Fillion and faced backlash from subscribers. Analysis.

If you think this is anything but harmless fun between two creative teams, the internet has fully cooked your brain and it is never growing back.

just remarkable how much the executive class of this country misread a complete cultural shift into a tiny popular vote victory largely based on a backlash to inflation because of their own biases

I think that Jamelle Bouie is a good person.

And I think the manner in which someone chooses to treat Jamelle Bouie is readily indicative of their core character.

Antisemitism is fine as long as it’s just poasting.

Holy. Fucking. Shit.
