Just love that lies and bigotry go hand in hand

El-Sayed won. I’m urging Black Detroiters to STAY HOME and be “uncommitted’ like El-Sayed was for Kamala Harris during the general election. Dearborn voted for TRUMP instead of the Black Lady. I’m encouraging Black Detroit to vote for Jill Stein or Trump , like the Arabs in Dearborn did in 24!

Real big shout out to the X-men 97 writers not letting creed be given a tearful, unearned redemption. The fact that you blue balled it to the end is certainly a choice.

Least racist never trumper republican When does he get a job with the Atlantic or the bulwark? NYT opinion piece soon?

We shouldn’t have taught normal people about dopamine.

Which, to be clear, in a perfect world we would have public transportation and owning a car would be very rare. I hate cars. I think they're wasteful and dangerous. I own a car, and drive it.

“Sandwich guy case” “Harvard clawed frog embryo smuggling case” “Olympic canoeist reflecting pool vandalism case” “James Comey seashells Instagram post case” New rule: If the case sounds like a Mad Libs story, it’s probably about to implode.

stop paying for AI, I'll tell you lies and make you go insane for free

In general the ones labeled radicals are by far the least brutal among us. Normalcy is a war economy. Radicalism is placing value on all human life. It’s the great embarrassment of the status quo. Its reliance on brutal, unending, unpredictable death machines as order & normalcy.

I think my favorite genre of music is when artists write a song just lambasting critics Just incredible hater energy whenever done right

Hank Green's got shooters, and they're exactly the kind of people you'd expect.

a republican congressman allegedly broke his two-year-old daughter's collarbone and he somehow hasn't been run out of congress. there really is no bridge too far for these ghouls.

‘Platner on steroids’: Max Miller abuse claims have Republicans silently sweating

The Ohio lawmaker denies the allegations as an Aug. 5 deadline to drop off the ballot approaches.

One of the most important issues of our time is that the future of humanity is presently being authored by people who have nothing but total contempt for humanity and seek the erasure of everything that gives being a human meaning. It’s not just annoying. It doesn’t just suck. It’s existential.

It is funny that this person thinks “immigrants defended the union while native born whites sought to destroy it in the name of slavery” is an argument against immigrants being Americans. This is precisely the point, nothing about being born here makes you better bsky.app/profile/aphc...

Another datapoint for the fascist radicalisation of institutional pillars of much of the American Right

People potentially subject to the nyc pied-à-terre tax are being treated with 1% of the administrative hostility of SNAP and Medicaid applicants, and they’re throwing 100x the fit

if this isn’t the first question he gets asked by a journalist next week, we have failed as a culture

BASH: But it peeled off. Why did that happen? BURGUM: It didn't peel off. There was vandalism. There was box cutters. There have been 7 arrests. BASH: There are photographs of people cutting a 350 foot gash in the reflecting pool? BURGUM: Dana, I'm not sure why you keep questioning it

I seriously do not care how "sincere" your beliefs are if your beliefs are evil. If you sincerely believe in the white race, if you sincerely believe that trans women are men, if you sincerely believe that disabled people should just suck it up,

The Kinks are better than The Beatles and it’s not particularly close

Post your hottest music take. Mine is New Order is better than Joy Division.

YouTuber Hank Green Admits He Has Unhealthy Relationship With AI After Facing Backlash Over Recent Video 'The level of dopamine I've been getting from interacting with LLMs is not healthy for me,' said Green

indefensible & enraging. imagine being so puritan-pilled that you make your pathological fear of pleasure everybody else’s problem instead of urgently seeking therapy for it

a bunch of popular ASMR artists lost their channels forever this week, after YouTube cited them for violating terms against "sexually gratifying" content: www.404media.co/youtube-asmr...

Hank and John Green are just Jake and Logan Paul for registered Democrats.

A dark day for human rights.

Meta has entered a formal AI partnership with Newsmax—the right-wing propaganda outlet fined $67 million for election denialism. Election-denying, anti-Muslim, anti-woman, anti-democracy "news" now feeds directly into Meta's apps and devices, reaching hundreds of millions of users.

Corporate Media Is Not Failing—It Is Collaborating

None of the tech giants are on our side, but Meta is very clearly staking out their position against us.

Do not use Minneapolis organizers as the peaceful good example so you can smear the Prairieland defendants for their “violent” tactics. Alex Pretti was also armed. The MN 15 are being indicted for related tactics and strategy. So much is wrong with this piece, but that especially sticks in my craw.

"Their actions ensured that they struggled to achieve sympathetic media coverage outside of a few left-wing outlets, struggled to attract material or legal support (the ACLU, for instance, refused to touch the case), and failed to achieve positive virality in the larger culture."

I genuinely think that the core of the belief is that poor people are stupid and should be thankful for what they get

My favorite taco stand used to have all of their references to onions as “unions” and it was damn endearing and something to chuckle about. And they are always packed on Friday and Saturday night, typo be damned.

A typical argument I see flung around is "but now mom and pop businesses can afford to have designed signage and flyers". Give me a damn break. I'd rather see a shoddily painted, imperfect af, sign in their business these days. AI slop just says me to take my money elsewhere.

I bang on about this, but this is an initiative across industries to convince consumers that persistent surveillance is a benefit to the user when it’s actually an attempt to turn consumers into a constant source of data (far beyond the ways we currently are).

O’Neal helped purge me & all the other Black full-time staff columnists at the Post Opinion Section. I challenged his move to fire me in the aftermath of the Charlie Kirk killing. And he testified against me in June. We are expecting an arbitration ruling soon. Convenient time for him to quit.
