the thing to take from Cuomoβ€”a politician who was supposedly invulnerable and had control of every aspect of Albanyβ€”having a flailing campaign is that all of these assholes are really paper tigers who only thrive when their opponents are also cowards.

how about stop showing up and hating on the sex workers here that were amongst the first to join the app, actually.

Watercolored drawing of a man wearing a dark green vest and tan slacks riding a black horse. He holds a skull with a hat in his hand and above his neck float a pair of green eyes. The green splash of paint in the background leaves a negative space where his head would be.

Good evening, I’m out here in Los Angeles near MacArthur Park, where protestors have taken to the streets to protest the recent raids across the city, despite a TRO prohibiting them

I thought the news that covid can cause pharmaceutically untreatable ED by creating holes in the blood chambers of the penis would have gotten everybody masking.

Hell, I thought they'd line up demanding the vaccine be injected into their junk.

This is part of what I find tiresome. People ARE in the streets DAILY and it's not just in L.A. And at this point, folks should just assume that this is true and what's needed is for you to plug in too if protest is important to you.

It would be more honest if more people would say "I am doing OK amidst the horrors being suffered by others." It's actually not true that everything is terrible for everyone right now. We're living under unequally distributed fascism.

You're absolutely right, but I still have them.

This is not how corporations respond to an ineffective protest. This is how they respond to a protest that they would like to have go away.

So don't let it go away. Keep it going.

In fact, Streissand Effect this shit. Call attention to how much they want this to go away.

He thinks a homeless woman can afford $2300 per month?

He also somehow thinks that’s a reasonable rental rate, given that the median US income is between 65-75k per year?

He thinks a low six-figure family income makes someone β€œrich” in New York City?

And he wonders why he lost the primary.

They’ve gone from β€œoh this is just gonna blow over in a week” to β€œholy shit we need to actually change our moderation policies for our esports”.

That’s not something a company does when they’re confident.

A source reached out to me claiming MasterCard contacted Riot Games about the ongoing Steam/itchio controversy. MasterCard is a major Riot esports sponsor. This is the message going around internally from Riot, paraphrased:

* MasterCard has asked Riot to keep an eye out for negative sentiments on official Riot streams
* Riot has asked esports content creators working with official Riot properties to watch out for any negative sentiments toward MasterCard
* Moderators have been told to look out for any unusual activity around the MasterCard issue

This means Mastercard in particular is actively afraid of people bringing up Riot's connection to them negatively.

I think people should raid Riot's official livestreams and start spamming things like:

"#SaveSpeech from Mastercard!"
"MASTERCARD HATES THIS --> (.)(.)"
"#stopkillinggames"

and more

When we talk about Hiroshima and Nagasaki, we typically focus on August 6 and August 9. But August 8, 1945, is also one of the most important dates for understanding those unprecedented attacks. (This is an adaptation of a thread originally written by @wellerstein.bsky.social in 2020 on Twitter.)

This is a small brown mammal that looks like an extremely cute cross between a rabbit and a mouse. It has short, round ears, large dark eyes and long whiskers.

You may have noticed that I did not upload pika photos from my last trip to Rainier.

I want to assure you, my dedicated public, that this was not because I didn't take pika photos.

I remain committed to documenting North America's roundest boi.
