A text thread where someone calls out Kingfisher & Wombat for not recognizing the English during the Irish potato famine
BTW, I have this screenshot saved, I cannot love it any more than I do. Apropos of nothing, but still hilarious.
Is anyone else experiencing debilitating amounts of dread?

Suozzi has a cool primary challenger! Check out @daniwelch.bsky.social, friends!
This story about Mike Richardson getting fired is full of words about how Dark Horse's new CEO will "expand IP" & "leverage brands" & whatnot, but there's really not a fuck of a lot there about telling good, weird stories that people really love & engage with. Seems real fucken bad new bears, y'all.
i’ve watched this three times. VERY satisfying.
I think this is about the temperature but honestly it works for decades as well
But white people do have a homeland: the Real Time with Bill Maher writers room.
Normalize asking American tourists where they were on January 6th
If you’re pushing housing in lowrise n’hoods, eliminating useless sideyards is the unlock for the urban design everybody says they want.
In exchange for sideyards that no one uses, you get better units, lush interior courtyards, space for trees and play, higher density and lower energy use.
Nothing conspiratorial happening. The current fascist US regime sees it as in its interest to pulverize Iran. That's it.
DON’T FUCKING WARN THEM JUST DO IT
graffiti reading ‘we’re not from the left, we’re not from the right, we’re from the bottom and we’re coming’
that’s from the left, we count those
Now that everyone’s paying attention to global energy markets and effects of faraway events on prices and decision-making, is it a good time to talk about the indirect land use effects of dedicating cropland to biofuel production or nah?
A thread about ECCC.
I know ICC gets asked for at this show sometimes, and we did used to do it annually. But there’s a reason we stopped.
They all want to be San Diego Comic Con, except for the ones that have inexplicably decided they want to be San Diego Comic Con, But Cool.
Reality keeps being so on the nose that there is no nose
If he has a trans godson & still agrees w/Nazis that trans ppl shouldn’t be allowed to play sports or transition before age 26, considers them “not normal” & chalks up their struggle for rights to “pronouns” then that makes him even worse cause he should fucking know better but pulls that bs anyway.
One of the lessons of the Iran war is that it was a huge mistake not to even try to put any of the Iraq war architects in prison. We shouldn’t make it again.
Like clock work. Whenever Republicans run the government, they trash the economy for working people. Prices go up. 10 of the last 11 recessions were under Republican Presidents.
Good for the mega corporations and billionaires, bad for everyone else.
Someone send this to the years-long mutual who blocked me after I said the media consolidation system and removal of properties from streaming services was gonna push people towards piracy.
It's funny that Pete Docter's stupid quote (when he could have said nothing) may lead to a flood of stories coming out that Pixar is one of the most hellish workplace environments in the business.
Nothing came in today and this baby needs MILK!
Everyone in this family needs FOOD!
Everyone in this family needs MEDICINE!

Anyway given that Biden is a Catholic I feel like there's more PACs than those just linked to Judaism that should be scrutinized for their views on Israel.
A skeet reading "Harris had no ties to AIPAC. That was a lie told to you by a former Ron Paul staffer living in Germany who works for oil companies. It was a con to get Trump in office. She took $0 from AIPAC. Her donations came from JStreet who hate AIPAC and support a 2 state solution." There is a spreadsheet that shows donors CD amounts, reading "Direct Campaign Contributions (2016 US Senate) 2 $574,681 3 DEMOCRATIC JEWISH OUTREACH PA $10,282 4 DEMOCRATIC MAJORITY FOR ISRAEL $102.700 5 $355,400 6 DEMOCRATIC MAJORITY FOR ISRAEL $172,500 7 DMFI PAC $693,987 JDCA PAC $172,300 JDCA PAC $2.200 JDCA PAC $11,000 10 JOINT ACTION COMMITTEE FOR POLITICAL AFFAIRS $6,060,471 11 JSTREET $1,000 12 NORPAC $271,970 13 SHOMER PAC $974,808 15 14 ZIONESS PAC $9,403,300 16 17 Find out more at TrackAIPAC.com"
Cut the skeeter because I know why they posted this and I don't think they're trying to be an asshole but let me tell you, seeing that people are exclusively scrutinizing Jewish-linked PACs for their views on Israel doesn't feel great. Most Zionists in the US are evangelical Christians.
This story has everything, a focus on desal that led to overlooking other water sources, a city manager making $400K/yr saying don’t panic, a former water system manager saying residents should absolutely panic, and magical thinking: “The last hope to avert disaster was a 20- to 30-inch rainfall.”
Feels like 1930s France
Crate&Barrel’s marketing team really didn’t think this one thru huh
A great episode of course. I haven’t gotten to this book yet, but am looking forward to it. I think so many of the political realities we face are shaped by how people come to know things, on the level of action that this conversation is about.
