Democratic Socialism: Myth Vs. Fact https://theonion.com/democratic-socialism-myth-vs-fact/
@bwieder.bsky.social hey see you’re not posting here recently. Your article today that somehow conflates completely fake polls with the difficulty in creating a solid LV model is journalistic malpractice. The quoting of Pew about nuclear subs just shows how little you actually know here.
This thread makes me understand how luddites happened. A hundred people rushing to out-dunk each other on semantics and complete irrelevancies. Tech progressing _is_ cool. I’m sure each one will no doubt pass on the da Vinci surgery they need in the future out of these same principles. 🫣
Lightning, a running robot developed by Chinese smartphone maker Honor, finished a 21-kilometer (13 mile) run in Beijing in a stunning 50 minutes and 26 seconds, beating the human world record by more than six minutes. https://cnn.it/4mLRxQ8

This is a good piece. Proud of MoCo moms for (likely) rejecting this cretin without even knowing the depths of her insanity. Makes me almost want to brave the state run liquor stores and move back, just to be mean to this idiot.
The moms of Montgomery County don't like Bethany Mandel because she's a jerk to trans kids, and that tells a lot about America's political realignment.

@thehill.com described this as: “Other attendees helped lay the man down on the ground and elevate his feet as reporters were being taken out of the room. Trump, who had been seated behind the Resolute Desk, stood up to watch over the guest before cameras cut out” Fucking cowards.
incredible photo that's definitely worth at least 1,000 words from Andrew Harnik of Getty

Some days I wish I could have my head be this empty. Like, I could fumble a good opportunity through my own idiocy and immediately shrug it off as me being brave and frame everyone else as “tribalist”. If you’re lonely it’s because you’re giving megalomaniac energy and people shy away from that.
In a world that rewards tribal loyalty and punishes dissent, true independence isn’t glamorous, it’s lonely. But it’s also essential.

Beyond fucked up. Anytime someone claims that Republicans care about Veterans just send this article to them and then cut them out of your life.
Thank you once again, @propublica.org (specifically @ericumansky.bsky.social) for reporting on stories that seemingly no one else cares to. Even though these are the stories that, I think, are most important to who we are as a nation.

If you want to request a refund of any donation to @grahamformaine.bsky.social campaign (specifically made through ActBlue) - this appears to be the link to do so. I’ve submitted a refund request with the message being basically “Nazi tattoo??” Will report back if/when the refund hits my account.
Are we winning yet? But hey at least we can dance away our worries in New Gilded Age ballroom*. (*Dancing reserved for oligarchs, tech titans who pay-to-play, and, probably, Putin).
General Motors notified about 5,500 employees across three plants that they are being laid off at least temporarily as the carmaker reassesses electric vehicle production in the wake of President Donald Trump’s move to eliminate crucial tax credits.
