as President, i will declare all conflicts merely an extension of World War Two, allowing me to shift any blame for dead servicemen and women to FDR and sail cleanly to re-election
The Intercept@theintercept.com · 20h agoThe Pentagon is using a new method of tallying the number of U.S. soldiers killed and wounded in the Iran war that a U.S. government official said was “designed to obscure the count.”
Just watched Hotel Coolgardie, which makes a strong case for an immediate invasion of Australia.
Its embarrassing how many grown ass adults live in these fantasies where people work for some nonsense like the artificial cultures oligarchs manufacture over survival.
This is pretty much exactly what happened. The polls dramatically overestimated how he’d do with whites and underestimated how well he’d do with Black voters.
brent sewer socialist🚰🌹@therealbrent.bsky.social · 12h agoSo El-Sayed is doing better with Black voters and worse with white voters than most people imagined? That’ll be fun for The Discourse.
british people legally can't talk about their culture of elite pedophilia because they don't have freedom of speech. that's not a right they have. and what speech her undying majesty does permit is subject to prior approval by jo terf.

More cops have been arrested for using flock cameras to stalk women than there are transgender athletes in youth sports.
i think we should eliminate all taxes for everyone willing to participate in the corvee. These Americans will be entitled to 100% of the money they earn as long as the state can enslave them at will for public works projects.

to add: The west is going to burn, fire has been here longer than the USA has, many Indigenous land management practices work alongside fire. Rather than focusing on who started a fire, we need to work out how to live with fire and how the city became a tinderbox and how to help people right now.
James Stout@jamesstout.bsky.social · yesterdayJust wanna caution everyone posting about the Spokane fires that an arrest is not a conviction and if we look at LA they haven’t been able to convict that guy.
TVs. I don't know if any single consumer product has improved as rapidly (while going down in cost) as the TV.
Constantine@ajaxsinger.bsky.social · 14h agoFood, man. Food is so much better than it was in 1986. All of it. Poor-people food, restaurant food, fresh food, frozen food. Food is just a hell of a lot better.
my fellow Americans, Donald Trump just took an AR-15 out of your family budget.
Bill Grueskin@bgrueskin.bsky.social · 16h agoBrown University has a widget that tracks the cost of the Iran war to American consumers (as contrasted to whatever the Pentagon is spending). Per-household cost now exceeds $600. iranwarcost.watson.brown.edu
The role of ChatGPT in the accused FSU shooter’s case goes beyond providing tips, our investigation reveals. In the 12 months before his attack, he messaged with ChatGPT more than 6,600 times—including conversations revealing he was aggrieved, focused on extremist violence, and suicidal.

Republican power grabs in Kansas and Missouri are going down in flames with 18-25% of votes reported so far. Missouri's Amendment 4 aimed to make citizen-initiated constitutional amendments practically impossible. Kansas' Amendment 1 was designed to flip the state Supreme Court to ban abortion
Kyiv under heavy missile attack, massive fires in multiple districts of the city have been reported. Reported hits in the suburbs as well. An estimated 30 or so missiles have been launched at Kyiv so far, and at least a dozen rocket drones are also in the air.

I have, with my own eyes, watched my tax dollars in the form of missiles as they hit buildings inhabited by civilians. I'd much prefer subsidizing a grocery story I don't use.
USA TODAY Opinion@usatodayopinion.usatoday.com · 2d agoOpinion: Mamdani's idea may sound appealing, but it's NYC taxpayers who will take the hit, subsidizing discounts they may never even use.

An initiative on the ballot in Washington state in November would require all athletes seeking to play girl's sports from kindergarten to high school to undergo "genetic screening, a testosterone-levels test, or an examination of their reproductive anatomy" before they can play
Maybe MAGA is not suited for governance? The Heritage Foundation saw internal purges, staffers using Signal to figure out what was going on, and spokespersons who attack the media than respond to questions. So, just like how Trump is running our government. www.nytimes.com/2026/07/28/m...
Urban firestorms like the one that devastated Spokane Saturday have been growing more common because of increased development in the Wildland Urban Interface (WUI) and climate change. In this post, I document 9 such fires since 2016 in the U.S. yaleclimateconnections.org/2026/08/urba...

Climate change, combined with development in high-risk areas, is making urban wildfires more likely.

Watched The Lost City of Z, about English explorer Percy Fawcett. He was correct about an ancient civilization in the Amazon but died and needlessly took his son with him to prove it. He's fun, but the movie should focus on Henry Costin, his partner who did every cool thing Fawcett did except die.
This is really fucked up but important

I had my car broken into and laptop stolen in front of a police station in San Francisco and when I walked in to report the crime the officer on duty asked what I wanted him to do about it
Em, midly@lefttheprairie.bsky.social · 4d agoIt’s so funny when people are like “sure you’re an abolitionist now but wait until you’re the victim of a property crime.” Buddy, the most useful thing the police have ever done for property crime is put the form you need to submit to your insurance online.
alright well at least there's some sort of a governor on this thing
