when you're deciding which couch to fuck

I am calm. I am breathing deeply through my nose. I am counting to ten. I…

WHAT, ARE YOU AFRAID YOUR DOG WILL INFODUMP TO YOU ABOUT THE FUCKING BALL?!?

This should be the easiest layup in fucking history in terms of communications, to the point that I think that if you can't pull it off it's because you don't want to

This is what the bosses were voting for when they voted for Trump, and why they were aggressively putting out stories about how bad the Biden's 3% unemployment economy was.

If you're a worker and you helped them push that narrative, congratulations, you are a dupe:

I agree with Bluesky’s decision because the law is insane, but we need to find a way to help these guys out. They do great work.

Alt text: Screenshot of a Houston Chronicle article. The text quotes a witness from the San Antonio Family Association questioning: “How on earth did we get to the point where men are allowed to go into women’s restrooms and locker rooms and shower with them and nobody can do anything about it?” The article continues with a man named Jack Finger saying: “I, for one, am tired of that, I won’t put up with it. I’ve seen it at least a couple times in San Antonio, and I was tempted to help that gentleman save money on his transgendered operation by physically helping him get there.”

During a hearing today in Texas on the trans bathroom bill, a man publicly threatened in the hearing room to mutilate trans women and cut off their genitalia.

That is a… communism

That’s just too many words for “is racist”

"what if there was a publication that was 4% more reactionary than the Atlantic but 6% less reactionary than the Free Press?" Wow how exciting, here is $8 per month

the point of lists like these is always to get dem politicians to stop caring about the issues--poverty, racism, LGBT discrimination--that these words are stands ins for

Finally, I said years ago, and folks who have followed me for a long time know this is true, that defunding the police was a moderate demand that is actually the basement in terms of what's needed. I said that liberals will be deeply sorry that they turned that demand into some kind of bogeyman.

normal people don't say "triggered" or "heteronormative," they say they gave their life to christ in a cracker barrel parking lot

My issue with the idea that you should stay on Twitter to fight Nazis or whatever is that if you were to come up with a way to beat Nazis on Twitter, Twitter would ban it immediately

the times objectively thinks bribery by the staff of the current mayor is less urgently newsworthy than the admissions application for a mayoral candidate to a college he didn't get into.

She’s talking about the guy Republicans put in charge of health for all Americans.

Once again, republicans are allowed to talk shit about entire parts of our country and get away with it. This is the president’s son. Replace this with any prominent Democrat and it would be nonstop coverage. It’s more than clear now this is a choice.

about to do my 2nd interview about Oasis of the day and if I get one more request I'm going to need someone to get me tickets to the shows I can't actually afford to see

Unless they find bodies, I don't think we need live updates.

Post a non-religious photo you think of as holy.

if you are a fan of Teen Vogue's coverage and particularly that we're willing to cover topics that are ignored or undermined—or even risky, because of censorship and scrutiny—in broader US media, sharing our coverage (and clicking the links) is a really key way to support us and our work

i know it’s not the point here but imagine being so damaged that you basically wear the jerkoff hand signal as a hat and think you nailed it

Why should I write better when a machine can do it for me? Because actually no one can do it for you, because your voice is unique among all the people on earth. Siri never petted a horse's neck. Alexa has never been ghosted by the captain of the football team. But you have lived, your heart is beating, you have suffered, and you have something important to say. It's a human's job, to use words, and whatever job you give to a machine, that part of your brain goes dark. Maybe it's worth it when it comes to remembering phone numbers and directions, but when that part of your brain that uses words goes dark, that's a vast area that's very close to your soul. Don't let some internet platform convince you that what you have to say and create isn't worthwhile. Words are the echo of your soul. Honing that echo matters.

this iconic advertising copywriter named Kathy Hepinstall Parks died over the weekend and I wanted to share something from her website I thought Bluesky would like

because Zohran Mamdani didn't do it

Check this shit!

Earlier today, ICE tried to break into private property in Lynwood, California — no judicial warrant, no authority. Acting like thugs, not federal agents.

Spoiler alert: Lynwood does not play. This trio of goons got sent packing.

They couldn't figure out a way to blame Mamdani
