Robbins: We’ve had dark ages in the past. Marshall: Does it feel like a dark age to you? Robbins: It’s starting to feel that way more and more, but my porchlight is burning night and day. www.seattletimes.com/seattle-news...

When Donald Trump launched his campaign, he was caught hiring paid actors to pad the audience. (I also happened to be the one that busted him doing so). www.hollywoodreporter.com/news/politic...

I remember when the crypto bros nearly bought a late primary to get Harris off the ballot. Sometimes you don't want to flush the game.

Something else I want to mention here: The two MH-60R on this ship have scheduled inspections which require shore basing to complete. The det and squadron are probably burning through message traffic managing all of the one-time exceptions to various requirements.

The Hard Hat Riot is the single most important and consequential independently organized labor action in post-Gilded Age American history but the entire left-of-center has deliberately chosen to completely forget it because of how utterly embarrassing it is to us

The spirit the stimulants really comes through when the text is presented this way.

Okay, Folha called it, it's official. A hearty GO FUCK YOURSELF to every last living fascist

My formerly Republican, now independent brother, who votes Republican for Congress and Libertarian for President, once described the GOP as a three-legged stool that had lost two of its legs. I told him the Democrats are a millipede, and he had the horror of being a Democrat in his eyes right then.

For 3 glorious months there was this dude working the register at the dollar general across the street from me who’d always look at your checkout, say “nah that’s too much for all that” and deduct some random amount

We're getting more pro-trans people in power. We're also getting more people in power who can be persuaded to side with trans folks. Both is good.

Annoying year 1 film student's response to Favorite film in haiku: Koyaanisqatsi I like Koyaanisqatsi Koyaanisqatsi

Having the pony 'n pozole combo today.

A lot of folks are sharing their experiences in the responses, and I wish someone who knows pedagogy or sociology could make sense of why they're split between "it was exploitative, demeaning and led to abuse" and "it was the best thing ever."

Multiple Sclerosis went from "possibly psychosomatic" to diagnosable at its earliest stage thanks to MRIs, treatable and often curable thanks to leukemia drug rituximab.

This thread is my absolute favorite response to this prompt:

The ekranoplan is back, baybee!

why do men want to give women who aren't interested in them tips on becoming hotter? then you'd want to fuck me and I still wouldn't want to fuck you. surely that's not an experience your life is currently lacking

Someone is! It's called @glowlaw.org, and you can contribute to it!

California used to have competitive elections. In 1994, Republican Governor Pete Wilson championed Prop 187, which among other things, attempted to bar children of undocumented migrants from attending public school. Latino voter registration surged in response, and the state become uncompetitive.

Someone better be keeping a list and a stack of dossiers for the team that's going to undo the FedSoc's dirty work.

sometimes when I see news reporters and tv anchors repeat things trump said like it has any basis in reality and it reminds me of the night we took blue unicorn blotter in '89 and watched beetlejuice on vhs four times in a row and I never understood the plot once

Can't believe I'm posting a Politico article but it links to Graphika's findings.

That hit the funding goal much faster than I would have ever expected. Now I hope we can keep it going so I have so much packing and shipping to do that it ruins my life. We can do this.

I'm still mad how Giuliani got credit for the massive drop in crime he inherited from David Dinkins.

Do you see now why these rich men regarded Me Too as a direct, incredibly threatening assault upon them personally, one that had to be met with total war to the death?

New: Couple of guys from Kentucky just put out a new way to track money in politics. Been playing around with it—very impressed.

There's a line from the pro-slavery Southern Baptist Convention through anti-integration, anti-abortion terrorism, Dominionism, Prosperity Gospel, Trumpism and anti-empathy, and it repudiates the Gospel the whole way. Worshipping the Antichrist would be plainer than whatever idolatry they got going.

Welcome to Bluesky, we got white people self-righteously dunking on white people for self-righteously dunking on white people self-righteously dunking on Dutch people.
