I need to keep my promise of having an entire page of my website dedicated to stuff I read/watched/played that I enjoyed. Also, I think more people should do a thing like that, like when the internet was young

And her husband was playing hard to Israeli support during the campaign.

They were trumpeting that they'd picked a side, and it wasn't the side being slaughtered.

Huh.

We usually think of serif fonts as being easier to read in paragraphs. The screen reader issue is one I hadn't thought of.

“I am so bored by AI. One of the things I love about the theatre is AI can’t do it.”

Ethan Hawke is a dude 👌🏻

Times New Roman is a good standard font choice. He's not wrong to prefer it to Calibri.

“It’s a declaration of commitment to the international cause of white supremacy”: correct. What the White House called a ‘national security strategy’ functions in practice as its proclamation of a white internationale.

There is no obvious means for *this* Trump Administration to pull itself out of this nosedive. This is not an electorate they can win, & it is not an electorate they can bully into compliance. I do not underestimate their ability to surprise, but surprise they must

Dartmouth was the second cheapest total cost for me as a senior evaluating my college aid offers.

That’s an Ivy.

Never count yourself out before you evaluate the aid package.

Even then, call the office and tell them you need just a few thousand more to make it work. Do it.

I got $3k per year.

holy crap that's a shift

We will re-write the Constitution since all its built in safeguards (checks & balances) have failed. The presidency will be much weaker & the media will not have the important role they were trusted with either. At least not corporate media.

I mean, this scene is obviously propaganda, and it looks distorted to me. It's cut in a way that implies it's selectively edited. Its not clear that the persons walking by objected to the subject matter of the protest so much as to the volume it was amplified to.

But the image stuck.

So stupid Americans are blaming Europe for not being an ahistorical stereotype.

Don't worry, burgereagles, it's still packed with racist fuckwads like you. They just yell about Gypsies instead of Mexicans.

Also, 👏🏽Europe👏🏽has👏🏽never👏🏽been👏🏽 lily-white👏🏽!

The Mediterranean and the Alps allowed the evolution of a fair-complected population in the north, and the Gulf Stream allows a larger population in the British Isles than their latitude would imply. But France was an African empire, yada yada.

Democrats fighting the global race war by pulverizing Gaza: Haha, this rocks! No Arabs at the table, all Arabs on the menu!

Democrats watching the GOP turn on free Europe (because it's not a lily-white Disney fantasy of Europe): What the fuck, those our are allies! This sucks!

Trump also knows one of Putin’s election hackers was just captured in Thailand. We should assume that this GRU Member is undergoing very thorough interrogation. Putin may want to have Trump put out a cover story about election hacking. Thus, Trump’s rehashing of old rigging stories. @bera.house.gov

Federal agents arrest citizen observer watching ICE detain neighbors on her north Minneapolis block Susan Tincher, a 55-year-old American citizen, appears to be the first observer arrested by federal immigration enforcement officers since the agency launched an immigration surge in the Twin Cities l...

“She has marks on her neck and wrist from where agents restrained her. Agents cut off her wedding ring and held her in leg shackles at Whipple Federal Building for about five hours.”

Her crime: witnessing ICE, from a distance.

Read this whole thread.

Americans (me) can forget, while we're inside it, that a large country going through a fascist takeover gradually becomes a "fascist country." Both in other nations' eyes, and in what it teaches its youth to be.

Older ppl still hate Japan & Germany.

Tyler Durden energy.

OK, sorry, I got rage-baited again.

And I have more respect for the tactic of flattering Trump then, which may have saved lives; than for blaming Arab Christian voters and immigrant Muslim voters now for Kamala not responding to the same demographics' attempts to appeal to her.

I see why Dare doesn't get it. He's an immigrant. He reflects the kind of person US immigration policy is designed to bring into the electorate: A little naïve, a bit yuppie-ish, solicitous of power. Not unlike like the Arabs who desperately flattered Trump as he was winning, hoping for some grace!

And Presidential elections turn into referenda on the incumbent.

We knew Trump was a piece of shit. But from Day One Biden had been rubbing in our faces his indifference to his own base. And Harris was looking like more of the same.

The reason Harris lost is pretty obvious to those of us who are from the US.

The Dems rely on votes from people who want to treat the downtrodden better.

Harris, wi her rich Hollywood lawyer husband, was disconnected from that.

Jews are not an oppressed class in Palestine. Rather, the oppressors.

Progressives have to treat both parties and all media as if they were run by a coalition of Kevin O'Leary and the Stern Gang. Because they are.

Wait, bad example. Kevin's mother was Lebanese. Let's say Bob Mercer or somebody.

But yeah, we are to do entryism on both evil parties. That's the job.

The media image of the Harris-era Democratic Party was of a coalition of white Zionists and their stupid house n*****s laughing at Arabs & Muslims while Gaza was pulverized.

That may well have been a media distortion, given that the media are owned by Nazis.

But y'all ain't comin' back from that.

Can you be any more of a brain-damaged millennial?

I always thought people were making way too much of the ads Sydney Sweeney appears in.

Lots of actors have done ad work.

Get on Jerry O'Connell for advertising gambling! Get on the nerds advertising mobile games!

At least Sydney Sweeney advertises useful physical products!

One of the many reasons AI can't produce good writing is it can't hate its own writing. It can't think to itself "Maybe I'm illiterate" during the writing process. And that's essential

The fact that the article basically argues for replacing every tool in the US arsenal by drones and AI is the icing on the cake

RFK Jr.’s Deepening Threat to Public Health The current HHS Secretary is the most dangerous in U.S. history.

I was pleased to again partner with virologist @jimalwine.bsky.social on this piece about the continued, insidious assault on public health by RFK Jr.

We are truly on a bullet train back to the dark ages; prisoners to Kennedy’s bizarre whims.

He is contemptible.
