Dystopian Arthur Wyatt
@arthurwyatt.bsky.social
Based in Seattle. Writes comics (Judge Dredd is the one you’ve heard of), makes web stuff for a living. "an idiot who's just throwing them all around the spectrum to sound intelligent"
one of the deepest sicknesses in the world are the people who feel personally attacked over other people getting the same rights as them

i'm not a "both parties are the same" person, that's obviously not true, but it is true that everyone in the federal government exercises class solidarity with each other to some degree, and for SCOTUS that degree is something in the neighborhood of 99%
Eli Valley@elivalley.bsky.social · 37m agoThe fascist monopolization of US media, intent on ending what's left of democracy on behalf of billionaire mobsters, was finalized by a Democratic-appointed SCOTUS justice.
Gavin Newsom: “We can’t deny the Paramount Merger, what if David Ellison decides to take Paramount out of California? We will lose an entire industry!” David Ellison the day after the merger goes through: “Anyway, we are going to do mass layoffs throughout the new organization.” Newsom is an idiot

Mystery of the day: found one of the cats with a dead bird in the middle of the living room. All windows appear closed or screened. They are an indoor cat. I have no idea how this happened.
we fucking loved it, even when there was basically nothing on it, and let me tell you something else: we loved it because of human connection, human diversity, human creativity. WE DON'T NEED A SINGLE THING ANY OF THESE COMEMIERDAS HAVE MADE AND TRIED TO SELL US IN ORDER TO HAVE A GREAT INTERNET.
shauna@goldengateblond.bsky.social · 2d agoi especially love all the dopes saying “when the internet first went mainstream everyone hated it too” like it happened in the pioneer days so no one can dispute it, like mf’ers we were THERE
talking with "good faith" conservatives about policy is incredibly frustrating because you eventually figure out that the basis for their beliefs is a combination of easily disprovable factual assertions that act as window dressing for unshakable reactionary gut feelings
They wont. Zaslav walked off even richer after destroying the company even further than it already had been. Get ready for a deluge if AI slop, media with a blatantly fascistic bent, and a metric ton of tax writeoffs for things that will never be seen again.

i know a lot of people really, really want gaza to be a two-sides issue that maps cleanly onto US electoral politics, but it isn't. the mainstream of both parties supports the genocide, because the US as an institution supports the genocide. i know that's uncomfortable but you can't run away from it
& 5 minutes later when the next shipment of weapons arrived as scheduled, netanyahu concluded that biden was a weak bluffing fool who he could completely ignore to zero consequence
The okayest poster there is@ok-post-guy.bsky.social · 7d agoPlus you have to square it with the reality that: 1) Biden did threaten to cut off military assistance to Israel, 2) Bibi interpreted it as Biden *actually* cutting off aid AND NOTHING FUCKING CHANGED IN HOW ISRAEL PROSECUTED THE WAR
kinda breathtaking to watch the U.S. media establishment lose its shit about one maybe-plague death in a Russian backwater town with 3,887 confirmed measles cases reported in the United States, SO FAR, in 2026
Like I said, even if the Ellisons had made good on their promise to move Paramount out of California in protest of the merger being cancelled (which was itself an open question), you were still going to lose an entire studio and its employees if the merger happened. And now it has

one of the ways the media shows which side they prefer, is which politicians they quote uncharitably out-of-context and which they clean up for even when what they actually say and do is offensive (the Biden story ran on the front page less than a week before the 24 election)
Matt Negrin still host of Hardball on MSNBC@mattnegrin.bsky.social · 4h agoWhen Trump posted a video of the Obamas as apes the NYT claimed "it was unclear if Mr. Trump was aware" that he posted it
This is why I get so annoyed at people posting garbage like "don't cover our farmland with solar panels! grow food instead!" as if that's the tradeoff
Kevin J. Kircher@kevinjkircher.com · 12mo agoOver 40% of corn grown in Indiana is used to make ethanol that cars burn. One acre of corn yields about 16,500 vehicle-miles per year of ethanol, which sounds high until you realize that one acre of solar yields about 2,700,000 vehicle-miles per year: 16,000% more driving for a given plot of land.
i think this is often the case. there's often a need to believe the story is much more complicated below the surface, but sometimes it's not.
SteveLibrarian@librariansteve.bsky.social · 3h agoJournalists keep wanting the story to be "normal working class centrist has questions," not "our country is currently dominated by stupid people in a right wing echo chamber."
Now-obsolete slide. I showed in my intro course a mere five weeks ago. WBD and Paramount collapse into a single entity, the Big Four becomes the Big Three media companies that bring in more than 90% of revenue depending on how you measure (we studied the Big Ten when I was in college in the '90s).
bassists are antishippers. "bassist" is an oppressive class, like swagsexual people or Albanian people.
ME: hi, i've got an interview in room 126 in 15 minutes, could you please give me directions? GUARD WHO ALWAYS LIES: take the south elevator to the basement, last door on the right. love your outfit btw, i wish you luck ME: *entering the south elevator* what a nice interaction 🥰
RIP Jeffrey Archer, not a day goes by when I don't think about the judge in his 1987 libel case (which Archer "won" by doing a bunch of perjury) summing up for the jury by going "would a guilty man have such a hot wife". one of the most insane legal moments of all time
I cannot stress enough that ICE is acting the way cops have acted for years. These are just "starlight tours" for Indigenous teens applied to the rest of the population.
ProPublica@propublica.org · 7h ago4/ Fernando Vasquez, an 18-year-old citizen, was on break from work when agents chased and handcuffed him, then put him in their truck. After realizing their mistake, the agents left the teen alone in the woods, with no way to get home. Then they threw his ID out of the truck.

Sad to hear about Matt Howarth. Just this morning, soon after hearing he had died, I finished reading this illustrated copy of K.W. Jeter's Dr. Adder, and finally looked at the indicia to find the drawings l've been digging were all by him

Snoke being revealed as a Palpatine meat puppet means Palpatine was experimenting with Hefner glam for fun, and I genuinely love that for him.
