seeing some of the usual "this is not who we are," and yes it is.

ICE has always racially profiled, cops have since there ever were cops. It's just much more blatant and in the open again

shapiro is, uh, not looking great as he gets up in years

its just so absurd that the anti-vaxx types won so completely that "maybe type-1 diabetics should just try not taking their insulin and going for some walks" is coming from the FDA we are literally all going to die

We kitted up these jerk offs so they can wear night vision in broad daylight.

It wasn't.

who on what side turned it into a referendum, lets be specific here

i want to extend my profound gratitude to The Miami Hurricane, the student newspaper of the university of miami in coral cables, florida, for creating this beautiful visual for pride month

Fallout haunted house is just literally any house in fallout

i don't believe this, don't understand why the press are playing into this game, and don't think elon musk should ever be let "off the hook" for what he's done.

Lol it's reverting to pre-RT twitter until you tap

The last eight Congressmen to die in office have been Democrats. The last time a Republican died in office it was due to a car accident. These deaths keep occurring when Republicans have a razor-thin majority and we need every vote. Perhaps it’s time for fresh blood?

Once again you have to decide if you want to do politics and pick people who can do the job or if you want to stan septuagenarians with cancer working in important positions. Because mawkish sentimentality and elder abuse has won out consistently over fighting fascism

i think that the real proof that abundance discourse is just streamer drama people with postgrads is that it went off the rails basically immediately, like when adam tooze not so subtly implied that ezra klein was in a polycule as part of his criticism of the book

The Hard Calls Dems Must Make to Regain Power Democrats want to win over more moderate voters. But are they willing to adopt moderate positions?

my kingdom for anyone on the “dems should take culturally moderate positions” to explain what this actually means in practice? www.thebulwark.com/p/hard-calls...

This guy, Dom Lucre, shared child sexual abuse material on Twitter, got banned for it, and then Musk reinstated him. Absolutely wild to see him being treated like a real journalist.

added chords but need to modify the pad a bit

I appreciate the world at large coming around to the whole “Ken Klippenstein sucks and you should be deeply suspicious of rubes who take his stuff seriously” POV, it’s nice.

I was expecting it to take longer for the media to start to turn on him but I guess some journalists have already gotten screamed at off the record and remembered how unpleasant it is to deal with him

I know the likely answer is that because he's calling for violence specifically against trans people that the police will NEVER step in, but seriously at what point will this fucking prick face any kind of justice at all?

even the standard Dem "tax cuts for billionaires" line feels quaint now. they're not giving the billionaires tax breaks they're auctioning off government assets to the billionaires at fire sale prices and awarding them no-bid contracts

Tweet by Rotimi Adeoye: "I don't have a solution for this but there was a pretty wide consensus that Democrats lost the election because of clinging to institutions and process. Due process is a crucial part of our society, at the same time clinging to another legal procedure as a slogan feels flimsy." Reply by Matthew Yglesias: "I would specifically say that clinging to the due process rights of people making asylum claims seems to have led to some problems once it scaled up from a handful of individual cases to thousands."

First they came for the immigrants, and I did not speak up, because the latest Rasmussen poll showed low net favorability ratings on immigrants and that gulags are a toss-up issue for suburban moms. #savvy #clever #wonk #nobeliefs #noprinciples

Love the fit!

Kitty!

I really just can’t get over this. What POSSIBLE POLICY MOTIVATION could this serve? A traffic ticket from the Obama administration makes you MS-13 or some kind of dangerous criminal element? We can’t risk letting these doctors cure cancer, if they once went 63 in a 55? IT IS LUNACY

Just insane stories from the graduate school communities, students getting kicked out of the country - medical and science researchers - because of trivial, decade-old violations, like speeding tickets, long ago, paid in full

occam's razor is that the people trying to make him respectable just agree with him

“commonsense facts about sex and race”

American Universities are the envy of the world or at least were at the start of this administration.

"BigBalls used ChatGPT to determine the tariff rate on an islands only populated by penguins" should not be a legible, coherent sentence
