I don't know that there is a definitive line to cross that makes you say, "I live in a police state now" but when masked gunmen can routinely brutalize the public, citizen or immigrant alike, with impunity, you have reached that point.

We tried "everyone is entitled to an opinion" for three straight decades and all we have to show for it is four thousand cases of measles and a death cult running the government. It's time for people who don't know what they're talking about to shut the fuck up.

ok non-tech ppl might be hearing some scary things about "critical vulnerabilities" involving certificates. the main thing you need to know, without getting down in the weeds about it, is that the fourth seal is broken. lo, a rider approacheth upon a pale steed, and his name is Death

you know you were thinking it

why should i give a single fuck about some dork who got a really easy decision very wrong

Anyone who still supports Trump is a supporter of treason and complicit in the destruction of democracy and destabilization of the global order.

I hate when I wake up too early and can't fall back asleep bitch I don't want to be awake! I have to do enough being awake later, I'm not starting early

That's why it's so amazing what Ossoff is doing. "You are disgusting and I despise you" feels like cleansing fire after the last decade of having to acknowledge that They Are Real Americans and We Are Not

I keep thinking of how morally bankrupt it was for Republican lawmakers to wear AR-15 lapel pins.

Turns out it's actually great when the internet is lots of smaller spaces instead of one super space.

Every time a ruling happens, when your response is "they won't comply," you're just helping them. Stop it. The end.

This is just a fucking carjacking. How the hell was he supposed to know it was a state sponsored carjacking. what the fuck are we doing here.

The machine did not "go rogue." The machine belongs to and is the responsibility of the people who own it. Hold those people accountable for their goddamn machine.

If more of them talked like that, more of them would.

Ossoff is one of the very few people adequately channeling Evelyn Normielib these days the base doesn't want to hear entreaties to our better natures, they don't want to go high while the other side goes low, they want someone to come on the TV and go "these people are garbage" he's good at it

Ossoff and El-Sayed took different tacks tonight vs their opponents—El-Sayed was more of a subtext of “you dumb fucking racist jackass” while Ossoff’s was more “if you fell down at a gas station I’d toss a lit match on you”—and I don’t think either of those is a bad choice tbh

What is the point of posting this when we are trying to get people out to vote?

its genuinely incredible that the government has been taken over by vandals, thieves, and bald-faced liars and the media is more or less reporting on them like they're normal heads of state

If you live in the following states, TODAY is the last day to register to vote before the midterm elections: Arizona Arkansas Florida Georgia Indiana Kentucky Mississippi Ohio Tennessee Texas IWillVote.com

It doesn't bother me that a bunch of Christofascists decided to rename the Department of Defense to the Department of War. What bothers me is how EVERYONE adopted the name change with zero resistance at all. Everyone now just says "Department of War" as a form of fait accompli.

Logically, I knew the US had terrible public transit. But until spending 2 weeks in Japan was that knowledge really hit home hard just how bad we actually have it. I hope one day we can have better transit and not be so car centered

Ordering dinner via QR code feels less like going out for hospitality and more like submitting an IT helpdesk ticket for a bowl of pasta.

impeach them all. fuck em. why should they get to fly around on our dime and hurt people? “they’ll never actually removed from office” who gives a shit? I want them miserable every day for the rest of the term. I hope they have nightmares. air their dirty laundry. make em sweat

That 2025 stint when every institution scrambled to bow before the eternally beloved god emperor's million-year reich was weird at the time and only looks weirder and weirder in hindsight. Way way way weirder than any of the alleged excesses of Woke 1

I refuse to pay money for any streaming service that forces me to watch ads. You want me to watch ads, then the subscription cost better be $0.

Christening a baby is nothing like christening a ship. I know that now. Once again I can only apologise.

I truly, deeply, sincerely do think the guy flipping burgers at McDonalds should be able to afford rent, bills, and groceries with his paycheck alone. That's kind of the whole point of having a job and I can't believe this is considered a radical position.🤷🏽‍♀️

Sometimes I’ll see a toddler with an iPad and think about how I learned to tell what time of night it was by how close the coyote howls were

Democratic strategists: Ahhh! What's the right message!!?? Where do we moderate!?!? Jon Ossoff: This administration is horrible. I hate these people. We should put them in jail. I'm pissed Voters: This guy is cool Strategists: I can't figure it out!!!!!

IT SHOULD BE A BIGGER STORY THAT THE US PRESIDENT ACTUALLY TRIED TO BRIBE THE AMERICAN PEOPLE ON LIVE TV 🙄 IN A NATION OF LAWS HE WOULD HAVE BEEN DRAGGED OUT OF THE WHITE HOUSE IN HANDCUFFS 🤬

hey welcome to America you can get arrested for giving water to people waiting in line to vote but the president is offering you $5k to vote for his party

as a fish and chips enjoyer i'm prepared to declare this a curing polio level scientific breakthrough

There have been so many impeachable offenses, but lying about how you were a hero on a day that 2,753 people died in NYC in the 9/11 disaster—when you were on the other side of town, safely calling local media to brag about how you now had the tallest downtown building—is such a despicable one

This will not, of course, stop people on Facebook who've never driven an EV in their lives telling me that the batteries have to be replaced in 60,000km and cost at least a billion dollars each arstechnica.com/cars/2026/09...
