When you see Mamdani looking all normal doing normal person thingsβ€”petting bodega cats, riding public transportβ€”you realize just how bizarre and estranged our average candidate for public office is. Rich martians in flesh suits

Amazon is helping fund a $300 million build of a ballroom for the White House.

Independent bookstores are donating to food banks and organizations that help with food insecurity.

They are not the same.

George Santos: 'Have a great life!' Trump orders prison release of disgraced ex-congressman George Santos was jailed for seven years for stealing identities, including from members of his own family.

That Failsauce Boss Baby pardoned a lying liar for lying and fraud is hardly shocking these days. The fact that it’s not is the shocking part.

ICE admits that up to 50% of arrests in its Chicago raids are "collateral.” These aren't statistics. They are parents taken from their children, neighbors taken from our communities. When does a "collateral" U.S. citizen child's trauma matter? This isn't law enforcement; it's a campaign of terror.

Hey FYI the main reason women get stress fractures in the Army is that the heavy rucksacks they carry WERE DESIGNED FOR MEN. They do a shit job of distributing weight to the hips (where we are stronger w our builds). It's a design flaw. Thank you for coming to my TED talk.

Jeffrey Epstein: Bad Pedophile is maybe the funniest thing we've ever done.

We're now almost certainly going to lose money on it, but that's not the point. We just want it out there.

We've also learned something: Make good art right now, and people will bust their ass to help you on short notice.

The richest man on earth owns X.

The second richest man on earth is about to be a major owner of TikTok.

The third richest man owns Facebook, Instagram, and WhatsApp.

The fourth richest man owns The Washington Post.

See the problem here?

The Man Calling Bullshit on the AI Boom Ed Zitron built a massive following by saying what tech journalists won't: that generative AI is an unsustainable bubble propped up by hype and bad math.

The result will be genuine human suffering as a result of dressing a fallible, experimental intelligence up as an authoritative source of information. People will be inspired to harm themselves or others, all while their ideas and likenesses are counterfeited and monetized, all so
that wealthy executives can tell the world - and Wall Street - that their companies are "innovative."

One of the key ways you refuse to comply with fascism is by becoming even louder and more fearless in supporting vulnerable people. You SHOW that you are unwilling to throw the "undesirables" under the bus if only for self-preservation because under fascism you will also become undesirable one day.
