Once again asking where the advocacy groups and think tanks are on this because elected officials are not going to get there on their own.

Companies are all in on selling folks the idea that it’s in your best interest for your products to “know you” as if you are getting a dedicated servant but what you are really getting is a spy.

This InfoWars caper is going a little too well. We need to staff up a bit. We're hiring a Social Media Lead, who will help make InfoWars the network of the future. We need someone who is extraordinarily online, has big ideas for how things break through in 2026, and can pull those ideas off quick.

One weird trick to literally destroy America www.wsj.com/politics/pol...

It’s completely nuts that Trump won by less than 2M votes with near universal media help and worldwide rage at incumbents and the media treated this like a permanent sea change towards MAGA and now less than 2 years later he’s the least popular President in history and there’s no media reckoning

It’s pretty bold of Republicans to go after Dr. Fauci for managing COVID with masks and vaccines while RFK, Jr stands at the helm of diarrhea lettuce, parasitic cilantro, salmonella eggs, shards of glass bread, and uninspected bacon…

when my worlds integrate like this - it's just - perfection. 🙏🏼 #FTTB

WGN posted a meme of Kyle Shanahan as Mitch McConnell when reporting on his car accident.

They claim the stories are hosted with author consent, but that seems to be a flat out lie. They also tell authors to contact them for removal, but there is no contact on the site, no email or form.

Hey! If you were published at Daily Science Fiction, be aware that a site called Science Fiction Weekly has stolen the entire story database & posted it on their site. All of my DSF stories are there without my permission. sciencefictionweekly.com

Enough “what would you do on the commune questions” If you got sent back 100 years and were given your grandparent’s job, what are you doing?

Speaking of interconnected story lines - guess which feckless group of cowards don't have any political backbone?

“If we can come up with a good bipartisan [continuing resolution], that would be great” - @schumer.senate.gov desperately wants to surrender & give Trump Republicans a blank check before the elections even as the Trump regime keep oppressing blue states & get ready to meddle w elections.

Wall Street is caught in an AI-spending death spiral, with no rescue in sight. Analysis from today by Eva Roytburg:

Remember Trump shit himself at a presser, people behind him made this same face and his flunkies RACED into action to clear the room? No one even wrote about it!

This is going to be my Zapruder film. The guy on the left gets hit full blast with the stench, but don't sleep on the guy on the other side, who likewise starts squinting and blinking as the stink lines strike his face.

"De los 947 municipios catalanes,758 (80%) están obligados a disponer de un plan ante el riesgo de incendios forestales (Infocat), mientras que para el resto su elaboración es siempre 'recomendable'."

EL PAÍS@elpais.com · 6d ago

Más de la mitad de los municipios catalanes siguen sin tener al día su plan de emergencia ante el riesgo de incendios. Apenas 97 de las 947 poblaciones han homologado su situación acorde a un plan de Protección Civil en 2026

The grandstanding shitshow of lies and bullshit they're subjecting Dr. Fauci to is so much worse than shameful that I don't even know what to say. Feels like the legislative branch of our government is little more than a psyop, and there's no end in sight

This is crucially important.

New in PN: The new "science golden age" looks suspiciously like a grift "It’s impossible not to wonder whether part of Trump’s loathing for universities is that there's no way for him to corrupt the process and make money off it in the same way he can by giving billions to Silicon Valley types."

I just heard KGW's Channel 8's meteorologist Rod Hill describe a "firenado" as closer meteorologically to a dust devil than an actual tornado, and I'm disappointed in people yet again. Block me for being pedantic, but "fire devil" or "flaming dust devil" are just too obvious.

do people understand what a monumentally xenophobic, protectionist shitshow this is all going to be

Kids everywhere answering the standard question... "When I grow up, I want to be a content creator."

The GOP is desperately trying to rewrite history, but just a reminder that Donald Trump was president during the lockdowns, and he awarded Fauci a presidential commendation for his work on COVID. Thank you for your attention to this matter.

"If believing something suits MAGA’s prejudices and interests, they don’t hesitate: they simply insist that it’s true. They routinely dismiss scientific and statistical evidence, but they don’t stop there. They’re perfectly willing to deny reality even if the truth is staring them in the face."

James Downie@jamescdownie.bsky.social · 6d ago

"What the ongoing show trial of Fauci — which motivated this post — has really driven home, however, is that what Trump and his supporters hate most of all is reality....What we’re seeing now isn’t run-of-the-mill motivated reasoning. It’s something far more extreme." – @pkrugman.bsky.social
