Mr. Opportunity

My guess is a combination of the black population + tariffs hitting manufacturing for car parts and tires (Volvo, BMW, Michelin, and Continental Tire have big plants there)

What’s going on in South Carolina?

“The Sydney Sweeney American Eagle ad has fascist undertones”

Ads in 1990: “Hold my beer”

The behind the scenes lore for that is in the original series the phone pole was a compositional nightmare because it was a big vertical element bisecting the back yard and they were constantly trying to cheat its placement, so Wes specifically requested a sendoff for it haha

You ever see something that unlocks a part of your brain you haven’t thought of in 20 years?

Oh my god they’re actually doing it

But the Democrats sent too many fundraising emails - electing an authoritarian was the lesser of two evils!

I had a feeling it would be something along the lines of this.

“Best Day of My Life” by American Authors.

Was this song massively overplayed in the 90s? I hear this often as a “worst song ever” nomination and I guess it’s not great but it doesn’t sound *that* bad to me.

What would you do if I posted a screenshot from the other app of AI art with no alt text?

I’m not even a fan of AI, I’m just mocking all you scolding dorks

I commented like 3 times lmao

The comments to this thread are a perfect example of why this app has no juice

This is why Bluesky has no juice

Or what?

Typical B*sky response

Are you living in 2017?

The abundance mindset involves doing things that improve material conditions for people, which in turn makes them feel more secure and less likely to embrace fascism.

That would be true if the beltway media wasn’t so cozied up to Trump

The backlash to the idea of abundance is all about aesthetics. They’re mad that it’s a book written by nerdy bald white guys with glasses, and not by someone with a septum piercing.

And I thought Bruce Springsteen was a local magician (there was another guy named Bruce who was a staple at Monmouth County birthday parties 25 years ago)

To be fair (someone who grew up in NJ) I wouldn’t have known who Bon Jovi was had he not released his huge hit “It’s My Life” when I was 7.

I’m glad people are finally coming around to realizing that these two clowns are useful tools for Republicans. Ken Klippenstein too.

He was the original Jon Stewart back in 2000 when he called Bush and Gore “Gush and Bore”

This is the least surprising thing in the world

Complaining about Democrats sending fundraising emails is the ultimate mark of “I just want to complain and not be involved in the solution”

I've made this point before: if Democrats don't control either chamber of Congress, the only way they have any power or leverage at all is if a handful of Republicans are too scared to vote with their leadership, because their offices are getting swamped with angry calls.

Does Jon Stewart still think “both sides are the same”, or will he find a way to blame Democrats for Republicans cutting funding for his pet project?
