From the Simpsons episode about the two political parties in the United States: The top panel depicts the Republican Party convention. The Republican signs say WE WANT WHAT'S WORST FOR EVERYONE WE’RE JUST PLAIN EVIL The bottom panel depicts the Democratic Party convention. The Democrats’ signs say WE HATE LIFE AND OURSELVES WE CAN'T GOVERN!
Expel the yes votes from the party and cut off all their access to fundraising, then remove Schumer from leadership. Anything less is mealy-mouthed coward bullshit.
remember when elon musk was still in government and DOGE still active and they pretended for like a week rampent social security fraud was happening, and then it turned out they just didn’t understand that databases would include people who passed away and we never heard about this “fraud” again lol
My husband dragged me to this yesterday and I loved it! The preview doesn’t do it justice.
Tried to get my real ID. I had my license, my SS card and my birth certificate.
I was not allowed to get my real ID because my birth name is different than my married name. Now I have to go dig up a marriage certificate. You know who wouldn’t have to do this? A man.
Never change your last name.
great news! you're not actually seeing karl rove, john yoo, and david frum criticize the administration's lawlessness more stridently than dem leadership. you, reader, were infected with rabies by a brown bat 36 hours ago and this is all just the virus working its way through your nervous system
Tumblr post: fairycosmos the internet is an inherently haunted place if you think about it like. it's so weird to see long abandoned discussion boards stuck in a snapshot of the past, old conversations between kids from over a decade ago who have now grown into their own lives, obituaries taking the form of half finished profiles and the silence that fills the gaps between. there's a constant ghostly record of each generation's thoughts, fads, their sense of humour. back when the future was at their fingertips. even stranger, people you used to know exist openly in that space, and they watch you watching them. if you want, deceased musicians can play through your headphones. there's always an underlying sense of reminiscing and time escaping our ever shortening attention spans. what a fuckin graveyard cartasdosul You are right but holy jesus mother of fuck
I love and fear the haunted internet
The scary part is, I don't even think the people uploading hundreds of ai-generated things to the archive think they're doing anything problematic.
The reason why older generations burnt the shit out of their meat and boiled the shit out of their vegetables, was your kid died if you didn't.
Medium rare steaks and roasted Brussels sprouts are a side effect of an intact food safety infrastructure

this from Yael is great if you’re thinking about phones at protests
The movies don't really get into it, but it's worth remembering that Denethor went crazy because he spent too much time doomscrolling on the Palantír and it cooked his brain
“When you look at the factors weighing down Democrats, it’s not crime or trans rights or wokeness. It’s the deep-seated belief among independents and Democratic voters that Democrats are weak and feckless.”
I miss the old brand #CDC
The New Work Eimes Subscribe for $1/week Police 'Failed' Slain Woman Who Reported Ex's Harassment, Family Says Dr. Lauren Semanchik told the police that she was "especially uncomfortable" because her ex-boyfriend was a state trooper. She and her boyfriend were later shot to death.

Cybersecurity is political.
AND
Cybersecurity is non partisan.
Both of these are true if you believe that protecting Democracy is part of cybersecurity’s purpose in protecting national security & critical infrastructure, & that all political parties in a Democratic society should support Democracy.

It is a really good museum and well worth the trip!
Trump assembled one majority, but that does not preclude his opponents from assembling another. We often talk about elections as if we are baking a cake — with the outcome fixed and irreducible — but it is more akin to building a Lego model. The pieces can be arranged a different way.
My job title directly before "Counter-Threat Operations & Security Monitoring Lead" was "Desktop Support Specialist" lol

"They took hospitals and health care away from you so they could build concentration camps for immigrants."
this is just an observation but one way to think of the civil war is that it WAS about states rights, but the right in question was the right of free states to stay free
