a lot of what the right does nowadays is create an emotional support system for bigots. bigotry will offend and alienate people in your life, so the right looks provides a counterweight that lavishes you with praise.

This story is crazy. It would appear Trump admin officials rigged their nationally televised high school civics contest to keep a young man from a Sikh family out of the finalists. www.notus.org/national/ame...

The only good thing to come out of the dipshit Odyssey discourse is that at one point I commented “if we’re worried about accuracy, then Jason Mantzoukas should be playing Odysseus,” and now I can’t get it out of my head 😄

Aaron Rupar@atrupar.com · 3w agoTrump: "There's never been as country as hot as we are right now. We have the strongest military in the world. You saw that with Venezuela, you're seeing that right now with Eye-raan. For 47 years in a row they were pushing people around. They're not pushing around. We're pushing them around."
"Deeply sad about the loss of Ringwraith #4. We might have disagreed on policy, such as stabbing hobbits and murdering innocent villagers and working for the Dark Lord Sauron, but he loved riding horses and supporting his fellow Nazgûl. Wish he'd had more time." -Canadian politicians, apparently
💯 If you've played organized youth football on a racialized team, you've felt this.
Shireen Ahmed@shireenahmed.bsky.social · 4w agoNo mistake about it- footballers from Africa or Asia are not better at dealing with loss but they experience injustice on and off the pitch more frequently. The hearts of racialized players shatter the same way.
As huge and unpopular a call as it would be, the USA should leave Folarin Balogun on the bench for the entire Belgium game to avoid being tainted by any sort of association with Trump and Fifa's chicanery and machiavellianism.

Scott Robertson@sarobertson.bsky.social · last mo.Carney: The climate plan we inherited from the previous government was well-intentioned and well-suited for the times in which it was designed ... In the current environment, the old plan was an open opportunity for those people who wish to pull Canada apart, both at home and from abroad.
He says it would be too expensive to meet our climate targets…so who is saving money when we don’t? The people whose houses burn down in forest fires? Those who lose homes to flooding? The people who die in heat domes?
Rachel Gilmore@rachelgilmore.bsky.social · last mo.This is what the entire video is intended to couch. It’s the only part that matters. “We can’t afford to restrain the growth of an important part of our energy mix, oil and gas, to meet a short term goal,” Carney said. “Our emissions will be higher in the next few years”

This guy started a war that's wrecking the world because he was high from the recent kidnapping he did, and thought he could do the same thing and wanted to look smart and strong. Said war can't end because he now has to save face and that's more important than ending it. That's it
