“I’m strong and I want to have like fifty kids and a farm” of course you do. You’re twelve. “I don’t want to eat vegetables I think steak and French fries is the only meal” hell yeah homie you’re twelve. “Maybe if there’s crime we should just send the army” bless your heart my twelve year old buddy

His brand of it is particularly garish but all authoritarianism is basically government by spoiled child. No capacity for or interest in any principles. People who are nice to me get treats, people who are mean to me get abuse. I get what I want or I cry and thrash. Embarrassing

It's like when they decided too many people were getting the Medal of Honor, so they just took it from a bunch of former recipients. Shoutout to Mary Edwards Walker; the only woman to get the award and when it was stripped from her she refused to give it back.

I feel like an idiot for thinking that the shooter being a groyper would at all stop the GOP from saying the Left should be dismantled. I really dont know how you're supposed to deal with people who live in a different reality.

Witnesses Assumed Charlie Kirk Shooter Was Just Ordinary Gunman On School Campus

flags half mast and bottomless media hagiography for a man who spent his days tricking dim children into thinking black women are worthless

Charlie Kirk spent his life‘s work and all of his energy and time targeting out-groups while arguing for a world in which gun massacres would be easy to enact, plentiful, and inevitable, and he became famous and wealthy doing it, and we’re now not supposed to mention that because it’s not polite.

Itchio, Spotify, YouTube, it feels like we're in the middle of a blitz designed to destroy the internet

It would be nice to live in a world not specifically designed to hurt people

HAHAHAHAHHAGAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAAYAHAHHAHAHAHAHAH

Mainstream news seems to be showing Dems calling out the administration. Gives me hope that the curtain is falling down
Also my bet is on them using Hegseth as a sacrificial lamb

The most obvious lesson to draw from the leaked Signal chat is that these people really are morons. It's not a public act, it's not a schtick, there's not some secret back room where they drop the facade. They are genuinely stupid, incompetent people.

It’s both extremely easy and also extremely tiring to have to constantly say “I want people to have jobs and make art, not a program designed by a giant tech company”

I can't wait to hear your thoughts on X6 lmao

“Turn in you’re gun and badge, John Severance. Your off the force. Your a lose cannon.”

mr beast tweet reads: I have a pilot living in a $2,500,000 private jet and if he doesn’t leave for 100 days he keeps it, a cop/criminal in a jail and if they don’t leave for 100 days they win $500,000, and someone living in a gym until he loses 100 pounds for $500,000. Can’t wait to upload these 🥰

mr beast talking about the human lives he has trapped in simultaneous simulations with "cant wait to upload these" is why black mirror can never be as good as it used to be

Wired is dropping paywalls for FOIA-based reporting. Others should follow As the administration does its best to hide public records from the public, Wired magazine is stepping up to help stem the secrecy

They're called public records for a reason. Starting today, WIRED will *stop paywalling* articles that are primarily based on public records obtained through the Freedom of Information Act, becoming the first publication to partner with @freedom.press to offer this for our new coverage.

Welcome to the better place. I hope you enjoy your stay.

A reminder in dark times: kindness, mercy, decency, and respect towards the least of us enrages Trumpists. It burns them. It’s like a mirror that shows them how they fall short of humanity.

Kindness and decency towards the people Trumpists hate is not just right; it torments Trumpists.

My first (and for a while only) exposure to Darude: Sandstorm was at Six Flags Great America where during Fright Fest they would take the enclosed teacup ride, black it out, fill it with fog and lights and stuff, then blast the music as you spun yourself to death and it was beautiful.

Could it be people just wanting to be contrarian cause it gets attention? I know on Backloggd (Letterboxd for games) usually the top review for a game will be exceedingly negative.

American politics makes a lot more sense when you realize that the GOP is afraid of pissing off the GOP base, and the Dems are afraid of pissing off the GOP base, but neither party is afraid of pissing off the Dem base.

I think what is making everyone so angry isn’t just the cowardice of Senate Democrats, it’s their cowardice in comparison to the random normal person who runs for school board to oust a Moms for Liberty freak

Justice Democrats just blasted this text message out to all members

Among the material devastation to everyday people, Senate Dems have now blown a hole in their ability to work with the House.

We had an agreed upon plan, House took immense risk, then Senate turned around midway and destroyed it w/ a fear-based, inexplicable abdication.

They own what happens next.
