These people are evil. Never stop saying so. Don’t be intimidated into shutting up.

Hard to believe, but yeah. 😞

Clarence Thomas Admits That He’s Coming for Our Rights In a little-covered speech, the Supreme Court justice explained how he thinks the court should reverse rulings conservatives don’t like.

A wonderfully cogent piece by @elienyc.bsky.social that does a great job explaining in plain English why Thomas' approach to jurisprudence isn't just casual partisan hackery but an existential threat to the foundations of how the SC is supposed to function. www.thenation.com/article/soci...

In case it wasn’t clear, the anti-DEI crusade has never been about merit. Zero news experience. Never been a reporter. Elevated to Editor in Chief of CBS News, one of the most storied news institutions in the nation. www.mediaite.com/media/news/p...

I guarantee that Pete "Warrior Ethos" Hegseth is the type of guy that's too embarrassed to buy tampons for his wife or daughters because he thinks it's "unmanly."

I have beautiful twin boys named Juan and Jamal. Like most dads, I keep a picture in my wallet. But I only keep a picture of Juan, because if you've seen Juan...

The real problem is that, while progressive politicians and pundits do plenty of dumb things, conservative politicians and pundits are usually the ones doing LAUGHABLY dumb things. As a result, more jokes about conservatives.

Conservatives' suggestion that comedy shows need to add right-leaning staff writers to make their jokes more "fair" completely misunderstands what's happening. The problem is isn't writer bias; comedy writers will happily skewer ANYONE for doing something dumb. See, e.g., SNL's treatment of Biden...

Don't apologise for your dog showing up during the Zoom, apologise for hiding him all this time

Also anyone on the right who thinks Kimmel's cancellation is fine because it's just "owning a Hollywood lib" should understand that it doesn't just punish Kimmel, it puts an entire staff/crew out of a job, and, despite what Fox News tells you, plenty of below-the-line crew types are Trump supporters

If there's any silver lining to the ABC/Kimmel debacle, I'm hoping that it's that it helped some people finally understand why capitalism's amoral emphasis on placing shareholder value on an altar above all else is not a great tenet on which to base a democracy.

CVLT Nation Salutes The Best Goth Magazine Ever Made: PROPAGANDA Magazine! - CVLT Nation If I had to pick one publication that covered the Goth movement the best, it would be PROPAGANDA Magazine by Fred H. Berger. As a teenager in Venice,

I hate to link to CVLT Nation since their shtick is largely just bulk re-posting other people's content without permission, but this cache of materials from PROPAGANDA magazine is so fun to revisit. I'm pretty sure I have a number of these issues still stashed away in a box in the closet somewhere.

If you don't have at least five nicknames for your dog in addition to their actual name, can you honestly even call yourself a dog owner?

I hate that a significant contributing factor to the failure of American democracy is Democrats' unrelenting need to be liked by everyone.

Kicking myself for not tagging this #madonnaandchi instead

The United States is the only place on earth where poor people shun unions, free healthcare, and free education because the rich tell them to.

Friends, I'm BEGGING you, do NOT take materials from people you hire to provide you w/services and upload them to ChatGPT for feedback & then expect your service provider to respond to that.

i have also asked openai to "show me a diagram of the US presidents since Herbert Hoover, with their names and years in office under their photos" and i'm sorry but this is worth every single lake i evaporated.

one thing that's making me feel particularly insane lately is how there is no longer any limit to the amount of wrong you can be

There is a a Black-owned bookstore in Las Vegas. It is called Analog Bookstore. Please support!

Not that the existence of Elon Musk doesn't definitively prove this every day, but if you need it here's another great reminder that the fact someone is very rich or is a high-level corporate executive doesn't mean they're smart.

I think most people severely underestimated how much fascism and kleptocracy would triumph through the surrender and default of forces that should have opposed it.

The nation's fifth most populous county, San Diego, just chose its political future today—and appears to have chosen to have a Democratic local government—and it's crickets everywhere. Quite the eye-popping example of the NY/East-Coast-bias of how elections get covered.

If this isn't remembered as the darkest Supreme Court term in American history it will only be because there's no America left to remember it.

I just want someone to love me as much as the New York Times loves giving real estate to Our Foremost Promoter of Race Science

The Supreme Court Upheld Health Care Bans for Trans Youth. Amy Coney Barrett Wanted to Go Further. Three conservative justices have signaled they don’t believe the Constitution protects transgender people from discrimination.
