Studying for a PhD in psychology while the world goes insane. Currently very interested in conflict science and rebellion studies. I have friends everywhere.
I hope I am properly expressing my solidarity with the Canadian people, cause this thing wasn't cheap!
I read this guy's new book The Nerd Reich which is incredible and terrifying.
David Fenton@dfenton.bsky.social · 3d agoCrypto companies are the largest donors in American politics. Very few Americans use crypto at all. Journalist @gilduran.com calls it a gun to the head of American democracy. If a politician goes against them, tens of millions of dollars land on their head.
JON STEWART: “They began covering their ass 3 weeks after 9/11… There was poison in the air, on the ground, on your pets/clothes… THE CITY KNEW. Rather than limit the damage, they covered it up… After 9/11, business will never be usual again.” (From @mamdanibulletin.bsky.social )
Republicans say the quiet part out loud. Here’s Trump’s Agriculture Secretary Rollins admitting that their main priority is calculating how many people they’ve kicked off SNAP.
I am beyond exhausted. PhD work, onboarding a new and potentially exciting job, getting ready to start tutoring kids again and still working at a job which if kinda stupid and gross has been an income anchor I desperately need and may continue to need. It's also self-exploitation. Fuck work, man

Every day, I've walked by a tree with a broken branch. Who knows what happened? Anyway, it dried up in direct summer sun and I thought it started to look kinda cool. So I broke it off and brought it home confident the tree wouldn't mind. Snapped off some bits and I think it looks nice in this vase.
When they nuke Iran and Jesus don't come back And your son's still gay and there's no cheap gas When the vengeance of nations finally comes to port Will you be bitchin' 'bout men playin' women's sports I get weary I get nervous They hired a clown we got the whole damn circus

I'm betting no one in that room gives a fuck about how you feel.

NO media 1000s are marching in DC to defend voting rights; 90 orgs signed on, Reuters sent photographers, but local media Bernie Sanders, AOC and Martin Luther King III attended Wa Post buried it A Black-led march is visible in DC only after somebody else reports it Repost the march they buried
Ron and Cassie DeSantis: These two crooks stole $10 million from a settlement with a charity, wired it to Cassie’s fake “charity,” laundered it through two puppet organizations, and then used it for political ads in an election year. They should be in jail.
So apparently the new Lanterns show is about how it's okay to put your child in terrible peril and abuse them into psychopathy as long as there's a good job at the end.

I'm falling to pieces! It is no exaggeration to say this is the roughest patch I have been through in years. But the little spider plant clone they gave me at the food pantry is doing well. I'm grasping for anything positive and this ain't bad. I hope to post many pictures of it growing bigger.
Oh Haelena The purest souls fall from great heights often because they are pushed. #HOTD

I found this on the street today while walking to work and it is amazing!
Hey Michigan folks — it kinda seems like this should matter
Methinks there's some major fuckery afoot with this krew 🤔
Sir Ulf the White is the Kash Patel of #hotd Or is that too mean? Honestly, I kinda like the guy. Ulf, that is. Kash sucks.
I have rarely felt so let down by people I have otherwise admired. This is a deeply cowardly and intellectually dishonest position. Rather obviously conservatives will do this crap anyway to anyone. We may as well fight for what we believe in. Unsubscribed & unfollowed.
The Bulwark@thebulwark.com · 2mo agoThe vibes may be exciting, but if Democrats are going to win this year and in 2028, they must reject the DSA. If you’re tempted by a democratic socialist this year, think of what use Republicans will make of these victories, and ask whether you want to do favors for fascists.
This is not legal advice: DO NOT PERFORM MEDICAL EXPERIMENTS ON HUMAN BABIES. That is all
Dan Davies@dsquareddigest.bsky.social · 2mo agoAgain, the most important legal and ethical issue raised by this is something like "no you didn't, that's a lie, that didn't happen"
