Yeah, sorry. I don't care that it's nostalgia bait, I want the full hook line and sinker.

I know I seem like a charisma machine, real life of the party and whatnot but really I'm just boringly straightarrow, it's just my same SN from the AOL days.

The real State of the Union is anybody still needing to be shown how Boebert is unqualified. Like, ever.

NEW: #CO4 GOP Rep Lauren Boebert says she opposes Trump’s “detrimental” war on Iran, but said that Congress can’t stop the war through show votes. “Your job is to vote,” said Democrat Eileen Laubacher.

*looking at the worst post of my life* I must not post. Reactive posting is the mind-killer. Dunking is the little-death that brings total obliteration. I will face the Bad Take. I will permit it to pass over me and through me. When the TL refreshes there shall be nothing. Only I remain.

Ehh, it wasn't half bad, just had *thee worst* gas pain for like a second but otherwise totally manageable. Best part was being able to just leave and pig out at my favorite spot after.

With Dem ads like these, Paxton doesn't even have to campaign, they're firing up his base for free.

So uhhhhhh… Apparently meta's muse "AI" is just straight up doxxing people to strangers on FB marketplace??? This has the potential to hurt so so many people, and I genuinely wonder how long before they roll out a fix for it.

Posts like this actually serve to inflame and mobilize his base regardless of how they dislike him. Because they *refuse* to give a liberal the satisfaction.

The Editorial Board@editorialboard.bsky.social · 2mo ago

13. It is now mainstream that Trump's IOU isn't worth the paper it was written on. Even his attempted bribe of $5,000 per US adult if his party wins was met with crickets. Voters can respond in two ways: stay home on Election Day or vote Democratic. Either way, historic GOP losses.

Heyo!

We all *get* that despite any good or bad quality of the song itself, this is primarily astroturfing from people who just want the record, yeah?

Ella Langley’s “Choosin’ Texas” spends its 22nd week at No. 1 on the Billboard Hot 100, tying Mariah Carey’s “All I Want for Christmas Is You” for the longest reign in the chart’s history.

She's...perfectly fine, attractive? Like, nothing to wreck a home over, but good for him.

Damn, should've gassed up yesterday!

The thing about lying so blatantly, the reason it *works*, is because we have this innate sincerity bias. Speak confidently, say it like you mean it, and we WANT to believe you. Get enough people to repeat your lie, and we'll gaslight ourselves almost to the point. x.com/Acyn/status/...

Good show until the part where the interviewer tries to browbeat her into admitting Jolene was a real love interest and wouldn't take no for an answer.

Dolly Parton was more than just a legend, she was a unique figure who crossed all kinds of cultural lines. If you haven't heard it already, spend some time with this extraordinary podcast, focused on the role she played in the American imagination www.wnycstudios.org/podcasts/dol...

"I've been waiting 80 years to say this...Hello, Dolly!"

What do I think? I think @hakeem-jeffries.bsky.social , @schumer.senate.gov et al are more than happy to let Drumpf fuck shit up, since they live above all such mortal concerns. He does the damage, they postulate as saviors and secure the votes. This is not an endorsement of DSA.

I'm amazed they're still allowed in movie theaters.

Right! I am tired of all these people who JUST GOT HERE ON OUR EFFORTS telling us what we dont get about progress! Yall motherfuckers come here from failed nations and your stupidity is turning us into the same bullshit you came from!

There's no sense crying to @sonyplaystation.bsky.social about their taking away discs, because they won't listen to us. Instead it's 3rd party devs like @ubisoft.com that need to raise their voice. It's a simple calculus, would they rather make a physical sale at discount, or no digital sale at all?

Am I the only one who had those intrusive thoughts about hopping on to see where it took me?

In this piece, I regret the paragraph about the uses of the POC actors - who are all great, but IMO under-utilized (and why couldn‘t Himesh Patel be Odysseus instead?) I still think the film largely wastes its strong cast, but I framed it badly.
