Fuck me, as a former event tech this really speaks a lot. I'm sure hoping the person it seems like he's trying to be can survive this position.

Off to a good start

That Cardboard Box in Your Home Is Fueling Election Denial A previously unreported boom in profits for the shipping supply giant Uline has provided the funds for a deeply conservative Midwestern family to bankroll anti-democracy causes around the country.

Much of the cardboard and paper goods strewn about our homes are sold by a single private company, with its name, Uline, stamped on the bottom.

Many may not know that a multibillion-dollar fortune made on those ubiquitous products fuels far-right candidates across the country.

@edzitron.com I just listened to the first bit of the NVIDIA Enron episodes and laughed for like 3 minutes straight after the WorldCom bit. That's some of the best writing I've seen in awhile. Cheers.

That's a pretty generous appraisal. But I'm not sure that big investors even care anymore. They all think they're not like the other girls and can get out with the bag.

If OpenAI goes public it means that everyone (read hedgefunds, private equity, other countries) can buy shares and boost the market value of OpenAI way above it's actually value of -$trillions. Much like Tesla. Microsoft and other investors could make a lot of money from that.

Why does everyone keep calling it “The Epstein Ballroom?” Please stop repeating “The Epstein Ballroom” because it is not called “The Epstein Ballroom!” Don’t tell the news that it’s called “The Epstein Ballroom” and please don’t repost this!!!!!

@whysophiewhy.bsky.social should be handling all guided munitions.

Oh really! That would be great. I thought it was a pocket veto type deal. I think I used to know it worked differently in CA, but apparently I've written over that knowledge.

Newsom is vile scum. At the same time he vetoed all the trans protection bills.

Damn I hate that vile scum. At the same time he vetoed all the trans protection bills.

I remember being homeless.

I remember walking for miles looking for work.

I remember the looks people gave me at the gov’t offices.

I remember how hard it was to get basic things done.

This is why the notion of “handouts” is offensive. You never work harder than when you need help in America.

The fallacious idea that at any given point a person's situation is a reflection of their merit is one of the fundamental throughlines of authoritarianism, and the cruelty they use to rule with, through all of history.

Social murder and stochastic terrorism are the primary tools of the right wing aristocracy that controls society. They will of course deploy more direct violence as needed, but it startles the sheep.

Check out Dana's latest on It Could Happen Here!

Yeah, I'd really like to see some histographic study on the "martyr effect". I feel like it's always just an excuse or a flashpoint for events that had long sense had momentum and organization behind them. It's just easier to remember when one dude died.

I’m so excited to share this with the world

Congratulations! I can't wait to read it!!

Spencer Cox celebrating the life of someone who said that Black people were literally too intellectually inferior to fly planes.

I repeat. Fuck Charlie Kirk.

If your nations unity is dependent on the blood of Black people. May it burn to the ground.

At the September 9 Board of Supervisors meeting, we discussed that Oakland’s proposed Encampment Management Policy, if adopted as written, could put $45 million in homelessness funding at risk - including $23M for Oakland and $22M countywide through the State’s HHAP 6 grant.

Thank you for your work! I just moved back to Oakland and am now in District 2, but I'm proud of my votes for you over the years.

If Goebbels had been shot in 1933, liberals would have called it a tragedy of democratic norms and an excuse for the nazis to crack down harder.

Taking photos and video of law enforcement officers performing their duties in public is our constitutional right.

This includes police, FBI, National Guard troops, ICE agents, and other government officials.

If you’re doing mutual Aid in Texas right now, and there’s something we can do here to help, hit me up.

I’m disgusted to see people mocking communities that lost their little children, what the fuck is wrong with some of you?

Woops, meant solution.

Not talking about electricity here.

The solar is to build parallel power structures in your community so that you are able to be resilient and independent.

trump remade the Republican party in his own image over the course of like six months

so yeah, i do think political parties can pivot to do things that work

wokeness 2: whoops, all Nurembergs!
