Thought experiment: What if we simply stopped paying any attention to white dudes with beards sitting in their basement talking into microphones? I'm begging all of them, for God's sake... GET OUT OF YOUR FUCKING BASEMENTS AND TOUCH SOME GRASS!!!

If you are justifiably concerned about the current crop of Republicans serving in public office, they pale in comparison to what's coming. Complete and total lunacy, detached from reality and the concerns of the people they're supposed to represent. Conspiracy theorists and bigots.

TRUMP: Did you see the story about my uncle? TIME: The one who taught at MIT? TRUMP: I have the highest of IQs. I have the highest.
I for one think it’s bad that the president can just say crazy stuff all day every day and 99% of it doesn’t make the news because we’ve normalized having an insane president
His vocabulary is so limited it’s like reading a transcript of Koko, the gorilla who knew sign language, if Koko were a white nationalist
Aaron Rupar@atrupar.com · 6d agoI recommend people read this to get a sense of the president's grave cognitive impairment. Trump is either unwilling or unable (or maybe both) to answer the questions he's actually asked, so he just rants and raves while the interviewers do their best to provide structure to his random brain firings
Genuine question: Why do most stories that try to draw analogies to racism and bigotry portray the oppressed minority as alien / supernatural / inhuman? It's interesting that there's less media where the oppressed are ordinary human beings, and the oppressors are inhuman and unfamiliar.
Cleaning folders, I found this collab with my sister that I still enjoy. We should make whole comic like this :D (this cover was commissioned by a friend :D )
I'm making a #blender add-on that lets you sculpt directly onto low poly models via the manipulation of object space surface normals under the hood

We don’t spend enough time talking about just how WEIRD all these people are. This is just an incredibly weird and insecure thing to say. Imagine any other SecDef ever being this weird and insecure?!

Continuation of the Zaun AU #jayvik #arcane Jayce just needs to be handled with a little bit of tenderness 🧡
ACRknowyou@acrknowyou.bsky.social · last yr.Zaun AU #jayvik #arcane CW Drug use Jayce gets thrown out of Piltover and ends up in Zaun. He's now working at the Last Drop, but he's clearly still too much of a Piltie for some folks and at times he ends up in bar fights. He isn't really into Shimmer, but he should be allowed to indulge in >
I am reminded of the NATO photo op in his first term where he pushed himself to the front.
Aaron Rupar@atrupar.com · last wk."Most presidents engage in diplomacy in order to advance the interests of the United States and/or their political standing and that of their party. Trump, though, mostly seems to chase the narcissistic thrill of standing on the world stage and feeling important."

Q: Do you support the hostilities in Iran, which is causing inflation? MIKE COLLINS: I support the administration's efforts to make sure that Iran never has a nuclear weapon (So, yes!)
Our system of governance derives its legitimacy from the consent of the governed. When public servants use propaganda to manipulate the people they are supposed to serve in order to MANUFACTURE that consent, our SERVANTS soon become our MASTERS. Your tax dollars paid for this ad.

If he means that the problem is some people are inherently greedy and selfish and we’ll never change that, we’ll have that conversation, but don’t tell me this isn’t solvable
