The Lanterns show is sparking some interesting online discussions around race and racism in America and I’m surprised how unaware younger white folk are about the subject.

Mother Jones@motherjones.com · 4d agoWhile Yiannopoulos’ deportation contains an extremely rich vein of schadenfreude, it’s also indicative of how power, punishment, and influence currently work in the MAGA movement, and broader crackup within that feud-heavy word, where fragile alliances are constantly being made, broken and remade.
So grateful this guy kept his hair so we didn’t have to subject ourselves to 20 years of jokes like “to baldly go …” www.thetimes.com/world/irelan...

Lived on this street for 8 years now but there’s this old white couple that still lock their car doors every time I walk past.
On a related note, I have met 4 people this year who fled Trump’s America to live in NS. I don’t meet a lot of people. Maybe it’s because I mostly move in queer spaces but if I’m seeing this many, the real numbers have got to be interesting.
Had some Americans over for a party and I kid you not: they all sat in the living room. I was like, but the kitchen has food! And music! And snacks!
Do it, Boston. No one has the right to torment neighbors with engine noise.
Boston’s considering noise cameras: Look inside the tech already monitoring loud cars in Newport, RI

Just heard I’m getting paid $15 for one of my stories, doubling my lifetime writing earnings.
We've seen the photo of Spider-Man punching that guy a million times. But I just saw what that guy's sign said. He deserves a lot more punches.
American negotiators demand the Stanley Cup be renamed the Trump Cup.
Don’t talk about “superhero fatigue”: I rewatched Infinity War and the movies back then were just BETTER.
Okay the humidity was fun but now it just feels like that frog scene from Delicatessen
Elon Musk has done more than any person in history to dispel the ridiculous notion that wealth imparts virtue.
At this point, I don't even care if we find out he killed someone in college.
It’s because of Ozempic. GLPs cause muscle loss, so folks taking the drug are compensating with extra protein. It’s a pretty fascinating food trend, and I haven’t seen anything quite like it before.
Airship Chronos says TRANS RIGHTS@airshipchronos.bsky.social · 2w agoAs a guy who *really* loves meat, society does not need this much protein. Why are you putting protein in a cinnamon roll? Why is it everywhere? I hate this fad. I want it to be over.
Amazing to see the comments on FB on the bagpipe racist. "It didn't happen!" "I don't believe it!" "I need video!" as if white people have never done anything racist, as if their ancestors didn't commit 17 genocides to be here.
Did you hear there’s these guys again trying to get the ocean pregnant? Yeah, they just keep coming in waves.
Did you hear about those guys trying to have sex with the ocean? They come in waves.

AI sucks etc etc but for a little while it was also very funny
Ordered my usual summertime favourite: Iced Hot Chocolate. The barista gently pointed out that I’ve just been ordering chocolate milk all these years and never realized it.
Just watched Ministry of Ungentlemanly Warfare and I want more movies where folks get excited about killing nazis.
What bird am I hearing that goes clickety-clickety-click like something out of Jurassic Park? Even my Merlin app isn’t sure.
