"The last American Bonaparte was accidentally killed by his own dog in Central Park." is a sentence that feels like it should be false, but is entirely true.

They’re calling it the most theater kid story of all time
Pixie Casey@pixiecasey.bsky.social · yesterdayin insane local news, the 26 year old director of a rocky horror production was arrested for sending threatening messages to himself in order to get the play shut down bc he didn’t want to deal with cast drama www.mynbc5.com/article/rock...
rfk has basically no constituency, that’s why he polls at like 5%, why are you giving oxygen to these mutants
MAHA is the single most toxic and dangerous stream of MAGA. It’s dedicated to destroying the material basis for modern civilization, in addition to the social and cultural basis (as all of MAGA is).
Guess I'm back to undecided for my 2028 primary vote. MAHA is a eugenicist movement that would sterilize me for having a disability if they had the chance. There are zero good MAHA activists.
Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez@ocasio-cortez.house.gov · 2d agoThere is pervasive corruption across our healthcare and agricultural systems that defy party lines. I meet with MAHA activists because a lot of their concerns are bipartisan issues that major corporations paint as partisan. The fight isn't left and right, it's top and bottom.

What is key to Gul Dukar's character imho is that he believes himself to be a complex, nuanced villain with a unique, sympathetic point of view and every time push comes to shove he just turns out to be a yawning abyss of narcissism and ego who believes in nothing except himself.
Insane how many people on here are posting about conspiracies about Ceuta which boil down to "the great replacement but left-ishly". If I catch anyone saying immigration is a "hybrid warfare tactic", I am going to rightfully call you a Nazi because you are using the language of a Nazi.
We should cease every last cent of this protection money and put it towards a federal matching funds program.

If I ever got dumped for having really stupid, provably false beliefs you could not waterboard that one out of me.

My options are: Police officer (nah) Seamstress (no) DMV employee (ugh maybe) Postal worker (yeah this one) Technically if we are doing grandparents purely on biology and not who raised my parents, I should replace postal worker with con man.
Revan@revan.eurosky.social · last wk.Enough “what would you do on the commune questions” If you got sent back 100 years and were given your grandparent’s job, what are you doing?
a worrying number of PETA's ads appear to be basically 'the writer's barely disguised fetish'
Arif "Felonious Munk" Shahid@feloniousmunk.blacksky.app · 6d agoTerrible plan because my first, second, and third thoughts were all "either way it's getting ate."
Quite literally the best and most organized Dem party in the country. The only that compare in quality are Pennsylvania & Virginia, both of which are also disasters but I've learned from years of campaign work is that every single party at every level is a disaster. It depends how you manage that.
Eric Michael Garcia@ericmgarcia.bsky.social · 6d agoWhat a dumpster fire in the Wisconsin Democratic Party. And the irony is Wisconsin has one of the best-run state parties.
All the Fauci stuff is a modern day version of the POW/MIA stuff after Vietnam - a way to try to rewrite the history of a huge failure of conservative ideology to be instead a story about how liberals and foreigners stabbed us in the back.
If you post survey data, news articles, etc. without a link back to the source whenever possible, you are weakening the informational chain of custody and making it harder for other people to confirm that they're seeing accurate information. This holds even if you're mad at whatever it is.
Zach Weinersmith@zachweinersmith.bsky.social · 10mo agoDo you have any extremely niche, but serious, ethical stances?
We can go further down this naming trend and get places named Sandwich Orgy and BDSM Burger if we as a society are brave enough.
open all borders. stop having them be closed 🇺🇦🇱🇹🇵🇸🏴@dov.bsky.social · last wk.i fucking hate this trend of naming things. when will you people stop already
While we're talking about The Odyssey, can we take a second to appreciate one of the greatest exchanges of dialogue in the history of superhero fiction?
This is the truest shit Hillary Clinton ever said in 2016 and even now, in 20-fucking-26, we're still not capable of handling it apparently
My belief for a long time has been the best defense against fascism is cute little coffee shops, community theatre, street fairs, and karaoke nights. It is hard to hate someone based on the color of their skin if they do a killer rendition of "Every Time We Touch".
