Nobody deserves these kind of threats, even Marjorie Taylor Greene. Also, Greene allied with Trump in the first place because she didn't care if he behaved this way toward others. She is a selfish coward and a fool, and this only further proves it.

I'm convinced that the essential paradox of the tech oligarchy is that they know they have to relate to other people and at least try to pitch their ideas to the public but they suck at it because they also think they're better than everyone else.
Nathaniel C. Green@nathanielcgreen.bsky.social · 22h agoSure, this is a scam. But the through line for all of these ideas by tech billionaires is that they've offloaded all of their thinking to other people that they honestly don't know how to do anything themselves, and they assume no one else does either
treat your body like a data center. consume as much water, art and literature as possible. upset local municipalities with your existence.

In my experience people with a liberal arts degree bring calmer, creative and more human perspectives to problem solving. My company used to hire any degree and train. These people were able to win and keep clients long term. When it became just business degrees we had constant turnover in clients.
Or, if you're a college/university, you shouldn't give a platform for hate groups call people horrible slurs on campus because "free speech"
Rob Burgess@robaburg.bsky.social · 2d agoBeing a sentient person in 2026 means arguing in public for issues you never thought you would have to articulate out loud: "Read to your children yourself instead of outsourcing it to a robot!" "Don't televise executions!" Things like that.
It bears repeating that Andrew Tate is a disgusting degenerate and if he is the least bit associated with your political project that automatically makes it immoral and repulsive.

"By using AI, tasks like essays that used to take hours can be completed in minutes!" Sure, like how if I arrive at the gym and immediately go for a shower, my workout is done in record time. And if I throw my sandwiches straight in the bin, I can finish my lunch in under 10 seconds.
Yes. No one had ever "humanized" fatherhood until... *checks notes* JD Vance
Yashar Ali 🐘@yasharali.bsky.social · 5d agoThe Nobel Committee is set to announce the winner of the Nobel Peace Prize this week. I hope they will consider Vice President JD Vance, given how much he has sacrificed.
Just putting out there that I make a delicious chocolate lava cake so if you ladies just want to get right to the second part I can handle the cooking
The Mouthy Renegade Writer@mouthyrenegade.bsky.social · 6d agoThis gets my vote for the best thing I've seen on the Internet today:
It's too niche a category, but I wish there were a Pulitzer Prize for Expressing the Unprintable Thoughts So Many of Us Have About Horrible Misogynists in a Socially Permissible Way, just so @jamellebouie.net could win it

This should be so obvious that it doesn’t need to be said, but given what kind of weekend it’s been on here, apparently it does: If you don’t want old rapists running the world, in office, in the board room, making decisions for all of us get comfortable with “ruining” young rapists’ lives
U.S. Hist II discussing FDR's New Deal messaging tomorrow. One of the sources I assigned is his Fireside Chat #1, both read the transcript and listen to the address: millercenter.org/the-presiden... Plan on asking them how this address compares with communication in our current social media age

Met someone and we struck up a conversation about Thomas Jefferson and the Declaration of Independence (like one does), and this person remarked that they though Jefferson's "pursuit of happiness" line was, and I quote, "stupid." Which is definitely....a take?
Great chance to post my all-time favorite headline
Nick Pettigrew@nick-pettigrew.bsky.social · 8mo agoI'm convinced AI is our generation's radium - a discovery with genuinely useful applications in specific, controlled circumstances that we stupidly put in everything from kid's toys to toothpaste until we realised the harm far too late where future generations will ask if we were out of our minds.
Just finished Caro Claire Burke's YESTERYEAR, and thought it was great. Highly recommend.
@moiradonegan.bsky.social is so good, about such a horrible subject. The fact that she remains heartbroken by this means she has a heart. Everyone should read her, but especially men.

Caitlin Clark nearly got a tooth knocked out. She needs to invest in a mouthguard.
