nobody in history has ever gotten a bigger "affirmative action" boost than JD Vance. these Yale mfs brought him in, literally taught him how to use a knife and fork, handed him to Amy Chua to learn ruthless sociopathy, and then a tech billionaire bought him a Senate seat over the counter
It's not just the r-word. Slut, ghetto, rape as a joke have all made comebacks in male gamer/content creation spaces. I was on OG 4chan before national media ever heard of it so I'm pretty numb to the shit but it's just very corny and not funny, and I wish someone they respected would say so.
samantha@commiesamantha.bsky.social · 10h agomy partner was commenting to me yesterday how much more frequently she's seeing the r-slur thrown around casually by youtubers and the like. a lot of people who don't think they are fascists take the rise of fascism as an excuse to indulge in baser, hateful instincts they would otherwise suppress.
This is what trans genocide looks like. A soldier who served her country with honor is denied the benefits she has earned. “Shapiro was super dedicated,” a colleague said. “She would do anything she could to figure out a way to take care of her soldiers.”🧵
Assigned Media@assignedmedia.org · 3d ago@rikiwilchins.bsky.social 2026 Aug After forcing trans service menbers out, the Pentagon is now stiffing many for tens of thousands of dollars in severance pay they were promised, leaving many of them destitute and on the street. www.washingtonpost.com/nation/2026/...
[taps the sign] According to USGS GNIS "Per Secretarial Order 3453, Lake Ontario has been renamed to Lake America. The basemaps for GNIS are in the process of being updated." So Google (& Apple, OpenStreetMap, & everyone else who ingests GNIS) will start calling it Lake America within a few weeks.
Colin McMillen@mcmillen.dev · 2y agothis is both: 1) an extremely stupid situation caused by a deeply unserious individual and 2) 100% the correct product call by google they do this all the time for disputed names, and even change borders depending on who's viewing, e.g. the disputed border between India and Pakistan.
Look at my beautiful babies.
Spurs' video/media folks are really some of the best in the business.
Ok, a deserving octogenarian has finally died.

International Dog Day where we commemorate that we are not worthy of our perfect widdle diggy doggies. Here are mine (RIP Weaser and Audie)
Can we just rebrand the Grim Reaper as 'That Massive Cunt Who Keeps Getting it Wrong'?
One of the more obscure facts I remember about Dolly Parton is this: just like Star Trek would not exist without Lucille Ball, Buffy would not exist without Dolly Parton. She was a silent producer of the movie and show. That's why Buffy Summers has the same birthday as Dolly: January 19.

What Dolly taught us is that it is in fact possible to be wealthy beyond your wildest dreams of avarice but still be a fundamentally good person with a strong moral compass, and the only reason more rich people aren't like that is because they don't want to be.
This is the letter kids got at the end of Dolly’s Imagination Library. I defy you to read this and not cry.
The thing about Dolly Parton is she was so free of pretension towards fame and kind of silly that it took awhile growing up before I realized she was also one of the greatest songwriters in American history
Blubbering at work from that video.
Lindsay Ellis@lindsayellis.bsky.social · last wk.Honestly heartbroken and shocked -- I'm sorry if you're hearing it from me the Parton family just announced Dolly Parton's passing. No I'm not making this up, but I am an extremely hot mess. www.instagram.com/reels/DceNXg...
More than anything, Dolly very loudly and proudly, with her words and actions, gave a fuck about people. Giving a fuck is really what it's about.
She deserved to outlive this current moment but unlike so many of her stature she leaves the world better than she found it. She will live forever in the art she made and the change she effected. A queen, a bimbo, an icon, a champion of children and books and equality, Dolly forever
I honestly don't think I've been this sad about a celebrity death at least since Robin Williams, though maybe ever. Dolly was not just brilliant, funny, a pioneer, etc, she was a humanitarian who wanted only the best for everyone on Earth. What a loss.
Dolly Parton with Keith Haring in 1985, incredible woman and supporter of LGBTQ people for decades going back to a time when few others dared.
Dolly Parton, among a thousand other amazing things she did in her life, gifted over 330 million books to kids through her Imagination Library program. Her passing is a tremendous loss to the world, but you can support the program today to keep it going imaginationlibrary.com

Ugh, Charles seems to have a good heart, his prior statements suggest as much, but his ignorance on this topic, yet willingness to discuss it as though he has a clue, is incredibly disappointing.
Awful Announcing@awfulannouncing.bsky.social · last wk.For a state to be green, I have to have spent at least on night there. I've flown through SLC a number of times, but never been outside of the airport. All the other states I've at least slept one night.
Brendan Kearns@kearns.bsky.social · last wk.Coming in the next year (or two), moving Illinois to the green, and maybe Iowa/Nebraska depending on how some contract negotiations go.
