Repeatedly watching how she pulls the mic away when he speaks on private equity & I can't stop thinking about the way that our employment system forces people into craven cowards that have to do real-time self-preservation calculus that results in actions that conflict entirely with class solidarity

in addition to evoking the "deceiver" trope (he "fell prey" to trans/LGBTQ+ ppl), Newsom is the LEAST CULTURALLY NORMAL prominent Dem politician right now. he owns a winery. he married Kimberly Guilfoyle. when they split up he dated 19-year-old (when he was 38). he podcasts w/Steve Bannon, etc.

oh good

Where can I enlist for the Butlerian Jihad?

This is also a story about caste! Hindutva apologists are far more likely to buy into this kind of MAGA-adjacent eugenicist horseshit if they are also caste supremacists! (Special fuck you to Gavin Newsom for vetoing the bill that would have banned caste discrimination in California.)

oh my god i missed the ten year anniversary of GUSTDS SAYS S yesterday. anyway. happy ten years of GUSTDS SAYS S

cant.stop.laughing

the end card to MST3K that says "keep circulating the tapes"

In retrospect this had a way larger effect on me then I ever could have imagined.

There were semi trucks full of dead bodies in NYC

Is the president mocking the U.S. women’s hockey team on a celebratory call with the men’s team going to attract even an iota of the sustained handwringing that the idea of trans athletes disadvantaging women’s sports has gotten

AI is going to make it nearly impossible for anyone to afford a new PC, phone, or gaming console -- all in the name of a future that will never come to pass and a present that will just make a few dudes rich. This is unacceptable

Nope.

Developing news update from Rob Copeland, timestamped 7 minutes ago, that reads, “Jamie Dimon, the chief executive of JPMorgan Chase, has been an outspoken proponent of in-office work, and that apparently applies to a blizzard, too. The nation’s largest bank is sticking with plans to host an in-person event for investors at its midtown Manhattan headquarters this afternoon, a spokesman said. Dimon is slated to be there in person.”

If the past several years haven’t made clear that management’s insistence on in-person work was about exerting control at the expense of worker safety…

this billionaire making people come in during a blizzard should clear up lingering questions.

Nah, you’re still hanging out at the Nazi bar. This is mealy-mouthed trash.

The Skills You’re Losing While AI Handles the Boring Parts Your velocity is up. Your capability is down.

Post ... Nick Adams @NickAdamsinUSA Follow Donald Trump is the spiritual father of our country. We would be lost without his strong moral and biblical leadership! (AI generated photo of Donald Trump in a white suit lit like an angel handing out the bible to a racially diverse crowd)

Place is cooked imo

the year is 2026. the most important person in politics is the guy from Home Alone, the most important person in media is the guy from Fear Factor, and the most important person in technology is the owner of MechaHitler. what we need now, more than ever, is to defeat the left

Remember, when news outlets first reported that Kash Patel was spending $75,000 of taxpayer money to fly an FBI Gulfstream jet to Milan so he could watch Olympic hockey, the official spokesasshole for the FBI had this to say:

Seems bad, until you remember that Patel literally flew the FBI jet to a place called *Boondoggle Ranch* in Texas for a hunting trip with buddies.

One day in the future, this is going to hang on the wall of a museum exhibit people visit in silence.

every one of these racist freaks must go

You know, it would be nice to just have fun and enjoy this win without being reminded that my country is run by Epic Bacon Memelord Pedophiles and Fascists. I would like it if American athletes doing well didn’t mean enduring a bunch of soyfacing from the fucking White House.

In October 2024, the Georgia secretary of state’s office launched an investigation after receiving numerous reports from residents across several counties saying they’d received partially prefilled absentee ballot applications from Musk’s America PAC. trib.al/Hu3jFo7

Decline in remote jobs risks shutting disabled people out of work, study finds Research project warns fall in homeworking roles could undermine efforts to reduce unemployment

We invented the Internet to work remotely. Then developed all the tools we might need. Then had a world historical event prove that remote work was effective and necessary.

You're gonna get in trouble! ... OK. #memelife

Mamdani to Reinstitute Homeless Encampment Sweeps

hey @zohrankmamdani.bsky.social this sucks

Disgusting way to talk about your fellow humans. Silicon Valley needs to be quarantined for an indefinite period of time until the nazi mad scientist fever is cured.

Again, everything else about the fascism is downstream from the fact that his presidency didn’t immediately end the second he started monetizing his hotel around the corner from the White House in 2017. We just yawned, as a society & a polity, at unprecedented & wildly unconstitutional corruption.
