The Absurd Prosecution of a Man Who Posted a Charlie Kirk Meme Larry Bushart Jr. posted trolling memes on a Facebook thread about a vigil for Kirk. He’s been in a Tennessee jail ever since.

In the wake of Charlie Kirk's death, a TN sheriff had a 61-yr-old man arrested for posting a meme on Facebook, which the sheriff absurdly construed as a threat. It was pretty clearly bullshit but I dug into the case using FB & public records and now it looks even worse. My latest @theintercept.com:

Here's a photo of my friend and colleague, Jorge Bautista, getting shot in the face with a flashbang grenade. The ICE Agent is so afraid of Jorge (who was posing no threat) that he has wet himself. Please share this photo. Everyone needs to know what cowards ICE agents are.

openai are disgusting freaks

You have to be willing to walk away from these guys if they let you down, just as a matter of basic self respect. It's not a fandom. You're hiring them to do a job or not.

two black and white kittens in a kennel staring off camera

here are some kittens i saw a couple of weeks ago that were up for adoption at petsmart. they were staring at my dog and there was a big sign that said “these kittens will be incinerated if not adopted within a couple of weeks.” I’m sure at least one of them got out. this deserves 500 likes

NEW: Since October 2023, the IDF Spokesperson's Unit has released dozens of 3D animations illustrating alleged Hamas, Hezbollah, and Iranian sites The style is unmistakable: satellite zoom-ins, black & white wireframes, and red-textured houses - a new visual language of war.Our analysis of 43 official IDF videos found recycled 3D environments, spatial inaccuracies, and assets lifted from unrelated artists and institutions.We traced over 30 unique assets to Washington-based 3D creator Ian Hubert, who makes bespoke models created for his sci-fi project Dynamo Dream, available to his Patreon subscribers. Models of parking lots, antennas, + pipes were repurposed as Hamas and Iranian military sites

@evanhill · 11m Fascinating work here tracing how the IDF recycled 3D assets from a cyberpunk sci-fi art project, the Scottish Maritime Museum and elsewhere to populate its widely-seen models of supposed enemy locations in Gaza, Lebanon and Iran. One of the most infamous, the alleged underground Hamas command center at Al-Shifa Hospital in Gaza City, used to justify an unprecedented assault on the biggest medical center in Gaza, was actually an animation the IDF had used the previous year, saying at the time it was a tunnel beneath a UN school.

Losing my mind and what look like video game assets but instead were used to justify war crimes and genocide in the real world

Reuters photographer Jonathan Ernst noticed that Bondi flipped open a file during the Senate hearing and he zoomed in.

Inside were her crib notes for attacking the senators.

The GOP now practicing Cliff's Notes Fascism

In other words, under oath Bondi was purely a performance.

Federal Agents Storm South Shore Building, Detaining Families and Children Families were woken by flashbangs and helicopters as hundreds of federal agents raided their homes. Days later, neighbors are still searching for the missing.

The building is in a 27 million dollar foreclosure filed by Wells Fargo. The next day, Wells Fargo filed an emergency motion for receivership. The fascist regime kindly emptied the building for donor Wells Fargo.

Israel accused of detaining Greta Thunberg in infested cell and making her hold flags Activist tells Swedish officials she has been subjected to harsh treatment, including insufficient food and water

““They dragged little Greta [Thunberg] by her hair before our eyes, beat her, and forced her to kiss the Israeli flag. They did everything imaginable to her, as a warning to others,” the Turkish activist ErsinÇelik, a participant in the Sumud flotilla, told Anadolu news agency.”+

Theo Von just BOMBED Discussion Saw Theo at Beacon Theater tonight for his Netflix taping (double ouch). 1/3 of the crowd walked out (myself included - and they seem to keep coming). Worst set I've ever seen. Pandering to the dumbest 50 people in the room. Failure of epic proportions. T 5,217 Д • 867

Creamy_Martini • 40m True. I was at the show tonight and he had to pause the show to ask for the punchline several times. ••• 勺Reply&个

Ok-Flow4845 • 2h Just came out of his 9pm show. Started off strong but it was a roller coaster that fell off at the end. There were multiple times where he would walk off stage to talk to someone or be in the middle of a story and forget where he was and restart. I absolutely love Theo but to me it seemed like he was on something whether drugs or alcohol and seems to be more than just nerves ：今Reply&个117少 gamgshit0202 • 1h Hard agree, huge fan of the podcast but the set was all over the place. Bits and pieces were funny but it was nerve wrecking just to watch. Could feel the tension in the room ： 只个46 Normal-Ordinary-4744 OP • 1h Did 1/3rd of the crowd leave the venue? 2 公18¢ Ok-Flow4845 - 1h I was in orchestra so don't know about balcony, towards the end people did start walking out but it was less than 1/3 ① 22

FamiliarAd6598 • 1h We left probably 10 minutes before the show ended based on when the crowd started coming out. Other people left but definitely not 1/3 of the crowd. the show was terrible. hands down the worst comedy show I've ever seen, I feel bad for him. •

Theo Von apparently bombed his Netflix special, what a shame

these Starbucks contras are such fucking demons. every Starbucks employee should be issued a sidearm.

(face reveal in part two is really funny)

BREAKING: Starbucks just announced a $1 billion restructuring and will close 59 unionized stores — nearly 10% of union locations.

It includes the Roastery in Seattle, one of its busiest shops.

CEO Brian Niccol made $100 million in four months last year.

AOC: We should be clear about who Charlie Kirk was. A man who believed that the civil rights act that granted black Americans the right to vote was a mistake… His rhetoric and beliefs were ignorant, uneducated, and sought to disenfranchise millions of Americans.

Another shakedown.

the kimmel thing is bad but as long as they arent rounding people up indiscriminately based on race, building concentration camps and talking about eradicating those they deem sexual deviants, i think we’ll be ok

yeah baby
