Wooo! The Youtube algorithm just served up "Can't Truss It" This song is fucking *devastating*. Has to be one of the best examples of what Flavor Flav brought to the group too (IMO) (Wicked, man) www.youtube.com/watch?v=am9B... @flavorflav.bsky.social @chuckdpe.bsky.social

They literally dragged a minor employee out of a Target as he was wailing that he was a US citizen, roughed him up in their car, and then dropped him off bloodied and bruised in the freezing cold a couple of miles away, so miss us with this.

These folks do so much of their corruption in plain view that the only obstacle to throwing them all in prison after this is over is going to be a lack of will.
Kristi Noem, while governor of South Dakota, supplemented her roughly $130,000 salary by secretly accepting $80,000 donated to a political nonprofit she was affiliated with, records show. She never disclosed this income on federal ethics forms. (Published June 2025)

Here's how I put it last time someone pissed me off with this "advice for children" brainless nonsense. bsky.app/profile/prud...
I posted this in response to people expressing hopelessness and despair and someone just post quoted it “NO THAT’S ADVICE FOR CHILDREN GO DO SOMETHING” so I blocked them because that’s being an annoying douche and if I could block them across the fucking multiverse I would.

i strongly, strongly believe that good writing is downstream of clear thinking and a strong understanding of the subject matter at hand. without fail, tortured writing comes from writers who don’t know and can’t think clearly about anything.
Oh man! This paragraph is brutal. The best thing about this review is it's not trying to be mean. It's just listing how bad the writing is.

“White House deputy chief of staff Stephen and his podcaster wife, Katie Miller, have fled their Arlington home after peaceful chalk messages were left on the sidewalk.“ Now imagine if armed, masked men were hunting you and your family like animals.
This is exactly right. Our slide towards fascism is being accelerated by those who are perhaps the most comfortable, the most pampered, the most coddled class of people in history. These people should be the most capable of standing up, of pushing back, and instead they choose to lick the boot.
Shocked but not surprised to learn how many ~titans of industry~ who probably think of themselves as brave ballsy businessmen are actually cowardly pieces of shit when it counts.

If Bill Kristol gets it in ways that Schumer and Jefferies do not, that says volumes about party "leadership"
I want to congratulate leading Democrats’ for their insistence on saying the takeover of DC is a “stunt” or a “distraction.” It’s a rare trifecta of intellectual failure, political stupidity, and moral obtuseness.

Fred Rogers was talking to *people*. The thing about Mr. Rogers was, he didn't talk down to children, because he understood that they were *people* - worthy of and capable of love, respect, and understanding. Yes we should all be helpers. We should also "look for the helpers". These are not at odds.

I'm starting to think that maybe we can't take everything this guy says at face value.
Incredible. First Elon said he’d cut $2 trillion per year. Then he said well actually $1 trillion per year. Now he’s saying $150 billion per year, but not until next year. Gonna say that what he’s working at won’t get that much. Elon’s great a PR - but one of the most prolific liars on the planet.
Is this bad, if you are a narcissist?
This week Elon saw his scheme to buy a state Supreme Court seat blow up in his face, prompting stories about his unpopularity. Then he watched Tesla stock plummet further as President Mumbleshits destroyed the economy. And now he gets to see millions of Americans marching in the rain against him.

Elon Musk has been a walking SEC violation for a decade and no one cared. The entire Trump era could have been avoided if the US took white collar crime anywhere near as seriously as it does low level drug crime.
On a 2023 earnings call, Elon Musk boasted that Tesla had bagged “over 1 million” Cybertruck reservations and that “demand is off the charts.” So why has the company still sold less than 50,000 trucks since customer deliveries began 14 months ago?

I know at a base level political journalism in this country is compromised when senate aides i’ve never communicated with email me “off the record, blah blah.” that’s not how this works, but it tells me they’re used to treating hill reporters like trained dolphins. and that shit doesn’t fly with me.
