“This is the kind of life I've had. Drunk, and in charge of a bicycle, as an Irish police report once put it. Drunk with life, that is, and not knowing where off to next. But you're on your way before dawn. And the trip? Exactly one half terror, exactly one half exhilaration.” ― Ray Bradbury
It’s good he won but let’s not unnecessarily water down the term any further than it already is. “Leftist” begins anti-capitalist and he has called himself a proud capitalists. He is not a member of the DSA but was rightly endorsed by them. Enjoy victories but be clear eyed about it please people.
Leftists winning popular elections is very divisive. How are you supposed to unify a country with this sort of thing. I ask you.
It's interesting all the health workers speaking out in videos etc about the realities of the pandemic early times. I'm a health vulnerable person with a health vulnerable son. My uncle died of hospital acquired covid just last year I want to yell WHY DON'T YOU CARE ABOUT US? Wear a mask! 😷
Everyone has a favorite Hitler art piece and that piece is his final work. Red Wall - 1945 Art experts said he had the idea in his head for a long time but it just creatively burst out of him in a rush. His wife even helped him.
The military did not make Graham Platner who he was. Graham Platner joined the military aspiring to be this person. Stop speculating when he told us all in his own words.
A watershed piece. America will have have a very hard time becoming less imperialist as long as combat service is sentimentalized and fetishized, when it actually tends to turn men into broken, hateful people, and helps make things like like Trumpism happen. www.newyorker.com/news/the-pol...
Skyrockets in flight? that’s afternoon delight. Rockets red glare? buddy you got bombs bursting in air.
If there's any kind of reincarnation I want to be a marine flatworm. Imma be like oh no I lost another penis duel, I get to be pregnant again! That's the life I should be living.
Folks: this is what the data centers are for
“In recent months, ICE has deployed a round-the-clock digital dragnet to scour the public internet—from Facebook to Instagram to X—for speech that could endanger the agency’s mission.” Speech. www.wsj.com/politics/pol...

Not speaking ill of the dead is how Jimmy Saville got something approaching a state funeral.
Update, I'm realizing most of the alley is gravel because it's never swept, so it's very hard to find and grab just the glass, but I did get the spots I could see 😂
I'm considering buying a shop vac to clean the glass up in my alley so I'm not worried biking in it, someone convince me out of this
Define yourself by your generation if you wanna, but just know. Every single generation sold out their children’s future and our present to capital… for like slinkies, and kiddie porn generators an shit…
Upsetting flatware: housesitting edition I opened the drawer and immediately thought of @philipmarks87.bsky.social Horrible to behold and even worse to hold these were impossible to photograph inside the house and outside not much better.
Not going to put their names in the alt text because I DONT NEED ANY NAME SEARCHERS AROUND HERE! But man if that comic isn’t still reverberating through the bloodless quantsphere and now a bunch of capitalists are theorizing about how much Marx wouldn’t like modern leftists but would love Xitter?!
LET US SLEEP IN A BACTA TANK!!!
The only time tested healthy coping skill for dealing with being trapped and oppressed is completely destroying the oppressor and all of their oppressive kin. Should be easy 'cos there's not a lot of them. But they've so effectively mindfucked their squad of goons that they have protection. Sucks.
Not kidding, I’m high as a Georgia pine. Wowee!!!
"Miller's nightmare... is not left wing terrorist/violent behavior, looting, whatever. It's the possibility that people might stop seeing these social arrangements and these forms of power as natural, and start seeing them as made, and
I agree strongly with this -- in that difficult moment, the possibility of collective effort was conceivable. Not everybody felt it, but many did. I think the political class did not like this one bit.
Libs will get bent out of shape about takes like this about Bill Clinton but it’s true and it would be good if we did.
They should have impeached him for F’ing kids on Epstein island with Donald Trump. Then <redacted> him.
I’ve done a lot of outrageous stuff on a bike but this is now one of my favorite moments and new go to story about dispensing bike justice.
I got to do the thing they do in fake videos but for real where they kick the door back shut when someone tries to come out of the vehicle. Homie was not pleased with how helpless he was to get out of the truck 😂
ACAB includes insurance managers
For context Tianjin is a city of 14 million. We talk about how many generations it'll take to rebuild and fix the harm that road construction and parking caused to US cities. But maybe it's clearer to talk about how long it'll take to elect politicians who aren't carbrains. Then, just do it.
In 2015, Tianjin launched the Urban Transport Improvement Project—the largest active mobility investment ever supported by the World Bank. Instead of focusing solely on roads or transit, it sought to create an integrated system where walking, cycling, buses and metro would work seamlessly together.🧵
Democratic presidents and a strong Republican Party.

Just let us get in to the hospital bed from Roujin Z when we need to, what’s wrong with that?
My favorite is when mania pushes me beyond what I should be capable of and I am euphoric with how full of possibilities the universe is then the bad sleep and very much the opposite aspect of the crash. The world should invest in letting us sleep good, bad sleep is bad for the business of humaning.
it's been a Very Bad Year for people who have fully rehabilitated and befriended george w bush but are still mad at ralph nader

The approach to climate change should start at the very least from that level of cooperation and scale up
