The best part of this amazing short film is when the snow plow shows up and you're like AWW YEAH HERE COMES OUR HERO, and then it just glides into failure

There's a couple reasons so many IWW songs are set to the tunes of hymns and one is that the Salvation Army Band would show up and try to stop workers organizing by playing hymns to drown out speeches, so the Wobblies came up with words so they could sing along. SA has been trash all along.

What a fucking gut punch.

Shit is so bad that the best American news of the week is that Dolly Parton didn't die.

i just can’t get over ICE going into the streets of the city i live in, throwing gas at citizens, invading people who live here. this is state sponsored terrorism being enacted on americans

Anyway props to NIGHT OF THE LIVING DEAD for just flat saying "in times of crisis your supposed protectors reveal themselves as the racist lynch mobs they always were" 57 years ago

Save 25% on Skin Deep on Steam Skin Deep is an immersive first-person shooter. We got sneezing. We got things getting stuck in your feet. Stalk through a vast non-linear starship and sneak, subvert, and sabotage to survive in this ...

ICE writing long screeds whining about someone from Cato calling out their bullshit shows how they know they're losing the narrative here. No one likes ICE. No one trusts ICE. And they're flipping out about how weak they look.

sorry I can't come to your thing I have a spooktacular

Congrats to @jay.bsky.team and the whole Bluesky team for creating a new dogwhistle for transphobes in record time. Excellent work all around.

Name A 28-Year-Old | Defector Here is the challenge before you: Name a famous person who is 28 years old. Go ahead. No cheating, no looking it up. Off the dome. Pure, uncut 28-year-old naming. I bet you can’t do it.  Zendaya? 29. Gracie Abrams? 26. Paul Mescal? 29. Hannah Einbinder? 30. You’re lower than dirt. You couldn’t name

Name A 28-Year-Old. “The data tells us that 3,880,894 children were born in the year 1997, and yet we can find no trace of them in popular culture.” [defector.com]

"decentralized protocol" is such a funny thing for bluesky to bring up every time they fuck up - something already available on Mastodon, doesn't fully work here, almost nobody wants. its like if mcdonalds forgot how to make fries but they told everyone they had almost mastered the Mexican Pizza

MAGA’s “Voter Fraud” Watchdog Votes in a Swing State. He Doesn’t Live There. A long paper trail shows that Jack Posobiec casts a ballot in one state and lives in another.

SCOOP — Pennsylvania prosecutors were alerted to possible voting irregularities by one of MAGA's leading voices against voter fraud. A long paper trail shows Jack Posobiec has been living in Maryland but voting using his parents' PA address for years.

From @jsweetli.bsky.social, @slate.com + me:

I would like to know how we can identify the specific persons at CNN who researched, wrote, edited, and approved this and hang it around their necks for the rest of their professional lives.

A screenshot from a 1941 Dorothy Thompson piece for Harper's reads: 'Mrs. E would go Nazi as sure as you are born. That statement surprises you? Mrs. E seems so sweet, so clinging, so cowed. She is. She is a masochist. She is married to a man who never ceases to humiliate her, to lord it over her, to treat her with less consideration than he does his dogs. He is a prominent scientist, and Mrs. E, who married him very young, has persuaded herself that he is a genius, and that there is something of superior womanliness in her utter lack of pride, in her doglike devotion. She speaks disapprovingly of other “masculine” or insufficiently devoted wives. Her husband, however, is bored to death with her. He neglects her completely and she is looking for someone else before whom to pour her ecstatic self-abasement. She will titillate with pleased excitement to the first popular hero who proclaims the basic subordination of women."

today i learned dorothy thompson was dragging trumpy tradwives in 19-hundred-and-fucking-41 in Harper's, the same magazine which would 79 years later publish a letter decrying precisely this kind of drag as illiberal cancel culture

I had not seen that deadspin article on hitchbot, thank you!

You can now fill out the FAFSA!

About half of Washington families qualify for the Washington College Grant (WA Grant). A student from a family of four making $72,000 or less can get the equivalent of free public college tuition and fees for their post-high school program paid.

you know, I don't know much about Jane goodall, but I feel like she had a thing she was really passionate and driven about and she made it her duty in life to advocate for that thing without worrying that her advocacy was detracting from "more important" causes, and man, I can totally respect that

I’ve said this before, but it might go double for SUPER HEXAGON: “Sound is half the game.”
