Slowing adding one new gold decorative item at a time to someone’s office feels like a prank Jim would pull on Dwight
Jo_clever_ke@insidejoke.bsky.social · 2w agoI swear those little seals are new, along with that weird golden "banner" at the top. This bullshit keeps multiplying.
With this ruling, the birthright issue is not going away. The right hasn't really begun *organizing* around getting rid of the citizenship clause. Like Roe, this will be their fight for a generation. And if the Democrats just say "we won" and ignore it, like Roe, the Republicans will eventually win.

Wow! America’s Graduating Seniors Really Fucking Hate AI! | Defector

US is not a kingdom or a one-ruler regime. If you have been elected, you have a duty. Where are you.

Spanish PM Sánchez responds to Trump: "Spain is against this disaster... Govts are here to improve people's lives... It is absolutely unacceptable that those leaders who are unable to fulfill that mission use the smoke of war to hide their failure, and in the process, fill the pockets of a few."

The kind-hearted ICU nurse shot by ICE agents was my childhood best friend.

Also, may I say that I don’t agree with people saying ICE and CBP need “more training.” They’re doing exactly what this administration has trained them to—impose a reign of fear in blue cities. They don’t need more training. They need to be ripped up root and branch.
“i want back my rocking chairs, / solipsist sunsets, / & coastal jungle sounds...” A poem by Renee Nicole Good, who was murdered by ICE earlier today. lithub.com/renee-nicole...

Not to be controversial but I think we should use tools and resources to make people's lives less miserable instead of more
"This promise of an AI future, is really just a collective anxiety that wealthy people have about how well they're gonna be able to control us in the future." - @tressiemcphd.bsky.social with an absolute mic drop moment about AI bullshit. Incredible words. Listen to all of it!
I guess it's fitting that it's a reimagined, worse version of someone else's artwork
After MTG lied about me for weeks, she said that she felt bad for my unborn child because he'd have me as a mother. Her rhetoric led to threats against my family. No one, even her, should receive threats like those, but I'd like to see her own up to the role she played in creating them for others.

And he was extremely - I won't repeat what he said - but it was extremely unkind. No sympathy. No care"

Charlie Kirk's body gets a personal escort home from the vice president. Meanwhile, back in April, neither President Trump nor anyone else from the White House bothered traveling to Dover Air Force Base to greet the bodies of four fallen soldiers.
imagine being so maniacally racist that you side with the fire over the firefighter

people come up with all kinds of fanciful math to justify billionaires' wealth but imo present political moment demonstrates conclusively that we need to tax billionaires at whatever rate will keep them focused on their own fucking business rather than our Medicaid and pediatric cancer research
Oh! And my semi regular reminder that if you have the means an opportunity to do so, please, for the love of God, drive across this country. If it doesn’t change or sharpen everything you thought you knew about America then you are just more prescient than I am.
It is a little weird to me countries aren’t more aggressively, formally trying to take advantage of the U.S. science brain drain. Once in a lifetime opportunity to buy low on Non-Dumbass Americans with PhDs who just wanna look into microscopes and quietly cure ass cancer as our country eats shit.
