The benefits to this are obvious to anybody familiar with automobile suspensions, but instead of explaining I'll just show you. Bose put this suspension in a Lexus LS400 and this video exploded on the internet 20 years ago. JUST LOOK AT IT! IT'S MAGIC!

We have a winner

they were wishcasting. they thought "well, it's not exactly great that Trump won, but at least he is going to take the wokes down a peg or three. we are frankly eager for him to curb stomp MeToo, BLM, Gaza protestors, every union organizer, etc"

GOP has propaganda outlets & infrastructure that would not survive normal market conditions and that lets them create the "background noise" of American politics. Doesn't mean that everything they try becomes a successful attack *individually* but it does mean that they can pounce on a trend and

the lesson from the right is not that their obsessions with trans volleyball, anti Haitian blood libel, or reversing the change in teen pregnancy rate are actually the well framed kitchen table issues of the volk but simply that political discourse becomes about things people say often and loudly

Socialist Roger Marshall demands more government welfare for his voters after Trump and the Republican Party wrecked their businesses.

No fucking follow-up from our brave press about whether this means Donald Trump is getting senile? It would’ve been a weeklong story about Biden’s mental capacity.

"September 11th was 25 years ago" -- Ted Cruz defends Trump lying about his response to 9/11 but suggesting he might not remember because it was so long ago

Large portions of the data center backlash are based on moral panic, but the the tech right VC types upset by it are very funny considering how gleeful they were about the demise of ‘legacy’ media. What’s that? You’re missing epistemic gatekeepers who would place complex facts in context? Tough shit

That’s the thing, tho: these are designed to sell, not to last. The point is getting the techbros to fork over money to the builder right now. And when the 💩 hits the fan and the bunker is falling apart in a month? What are they gonna do, sue?

Fitted out with a lot of failure-prone tech nonsense dependent on existing supply chains. They'll be drowning in their own backed-up sewage or suffocating from errored-out "smart" HVAC systems or starving because their designer rations and hydroponics rotted out.

HEY THIS IS JUST A PAINTING OF A THEATER SHOWING COYOTE VS. ACME

Trump era in a nutshell. Sees a thing in the ether that everybody knows (Consolidation in the meat processing industry has been bad!) and applies a completely wrong solution that will make it worse.

My version is actors and the TV shows and movies they've been in

I feel like an issue that would connect well with voters would be doing anything at all to slow the current progression toward "absolutely everything now is a scam"

Video was done in the spirit of having fun with a legend and letting her showcase her skills. The men (years b4 the poll, FWIW) literally came to the court in awe of her talent and skill, and everybody was having fun the entire time. We actually need MORE content like this from male influencers!

I think its nuts that when anybody asks SOTH Johnson about a racist thing that Trump has said or a fascist action Trump has taken that they let him off with a "I'm not aware of that" but every time El-Sayed is in front of a camera he has to answer to what a guy on the internet said one time.

“I lived through the years of peak woke, and it was a McCarthyite experience. I lived with the blue-state governance that doctrinaire progressivism encouraged, and it yielded civic and educational collapse” That’s what’s happening now. I’m so confused. www.nytimes.com/2026/08/08/o...

Captured: 40%-45% of the electorate, lives in an alternate reality and completely unreachable. Susceptible: 10%-15%, may sit out an election or (rarely) vote for a D for narrow reasons, doesn't see the 'system' as broken, just sometimes GOP goes "too far" 1/2

The Last Essential White Guy@far-far-away.bsky.social · 3mo ago

It’s not partisan polarization when describing the electorate. We need to discuss the electorate more now as three groups: captured by RW info ecosystem, susceptible to it, and outside of it but still affected by it. The first 2 groups are about 55% of voters.

I get that most of the WHPC is now just RW chuds, but there are literally records of what we transferred that reporters could get to confirm this & follow up. And even add, "but you knew what the stockpile situation was when you returned, why didn't you make replenishing them a priority?

Aaron Rupar@atrupar.com · 3mo ago

REPORTER: Are you concerned about the weapons stockpiles? TRUMP: For some of the more sophisticated stuff, we'd certainly like to have more. Biden gave a lot of it away.

I hope someone puts this to music, but right now I can’t stop laughing.

This article reads like stuff I see in my industry (marketing) all the time - "Just because sales are falling doesn't mean our digital marketing efforts didn't work! If you use the proper metrics, is was a actually huge success, and we should turn it into a case study for pitching other work."

Spent years building up a big following on Twitter, essential for publicising my aviation blog, which I live from. Desperate to leave it & publicise on nicer platforms, but I have too few follows. If you want to help me escape, do give this a share. Much obliged. My blog here: hushkit.substack.com

I think about the boxer Imane Kelief at the Olympics. Assigned female at birth, raised female, always competed as a female. Even IF there is some combo of genetic markers that might be more common in stereotypical males, she meets their dumb “what’s yer plumbing?” *test*

Max Kennerly@maxkennerly.bsky.social · 4mo ago

Guaranteed: 1) Black girls will be harassed and demanded to be tested over and over again regardless of how competitive they are. 2) Winners from public schools will be relentlessly hounded by the parents and coaches of losers at private schools, with the goal of making them quit the sport.

If I were part of a Dem Project Nega2025, I'd want to make a serious run at trying to "de-financialize" our economy as it seems to the core enabler of so much terribleness. Tax the rich, yes, but it is extremely limited as most of the ultrawealthy's resources are illiquid. But they can tap money 1/x

It really is fucking wild that Trump is having people arrested for putting a finger in a pool when he pardoned the people who full out trashed the US Capitol

You also can’t have any bad luck. There are just no margins anymore, no space to get back on your feet. The New Deal created that America; the GOP has spent the last 40 years trying make life like the late 19th century again. That’s the root of the “vibecession”

GOLIKEHELLMACHINE@golikehellmachine.com · 5mo ago

“because i made poor decisions” is a really important part of this. there’s no room in this world to fuck up and fail, and that’s, in my opinion, a real problem.

Something something American system of checks & balances

IMHO this is also who MSM newsrooms tend to adopt conservative framing of stories or keep stories that are bad for Dems afloat much longer than ones that are bad for the GOP - because the relentless firehouse from gop propaganda outlet is such a huge part of their everyday environment

Ned Resnikoff@resnikoff.bsky.social · 5mo ago

One thing I learned when I was just out of college and watching 6-8 hours of Fox News a day for my research job at Media Matters: Ingesting hours of propaganda on a daily basis changes you, no matter how smart you think you are. If you don't notice the changes, that just makes you an easier mark.

Yeah, I figure he's definitely going after Cuba next.
