It really sucks to see NBC Washington post a reel on Instagram that takes credit for sharing the DOGE USIP raid body cam footage with the world. They mention The Handbasket in the caption knowing full well that all people are going to see is the video. Pretty shameless.

Appending a "(complimentary)" to the end of that skeet post hoc? Alright, that's fair

This. A bunch of shitty dudes got famous and made bank on harassing women during gamergate and then similar guys did the same thing to take over conservative politics and that's the world we live in now, but gamer fascism continues to grow bc companies make too much $ from them. It's hell.

Don't forget: Daylight saving time starts TONIGHT! Spring forward means we lose an hour of sleep tonight. In DC, Sunday sunrise is at 7:30am, sunset at 7:08pm. CDC recommends:

✅ Go to bed normal time tonight
✅ Get outside Sunday morning
✅ Drive carefully Sunday
✅ Stick to regular bedtime Sun night

feels telling about American foreign policy punditry that while many decry the aimlessness of Trump’s monstrously wrong Iran war there were far more outraged columns over the harm done to US power and influence and standing and interests and example when Biden rightly withdrew from Afghanistan.

Sure. I do not think it's productive to tell someone asking in good faith for a direct link to a source that they're a troll, that's all.

My guy, skepticism and asking for direct sourcing is not trolling. It's wariness of unsourced information. Have a good day.

This (bypassing Congress like this) shouldn't be possible, or at v least should trigger investigations and hearings and impeachments and prosecutions. It won't tho bc courts are cowards and Congress is useless and our government runs on toothless norms.

I mostly just repost/qrt stuff these days bc The Horrors leave me not wanting to post much.

Friends, how are you doing? I hope everything is going okay with you. Sending love.

It's hilarious that "working class" now applies exclusively to the racist failsons of regional car dealership owners but every unemployed trans person is an "elite".
