teewatterss on Threads: “losing an hour on international women's day feeling very 75 cents on the dollar”

10/10 take. no notes

It’s Nowhere Bookshop. Definitely not anything else.

That is definitely “Bree”-coded

Nobody OD on schadenfreude today. Stick to small doses with a break in between.

Does the marine have a case against Sheehy for assault?

WWII vets. One was a firefighter and small business owner. The other worked in coal mining and truck driving.

Fuckin racist much?

Ouch.

“…and you see, I am a mass murderer in Jerusalem who targets civilians.”

Sen Chris Murphy (D-CT) to Face the Nation:

“I don't have any obligation to fund a Department of Homeland Security that is violating the law every day, just like I don't have any obligation to support this war that is illegal as well.”

That was the Biden administration

You can borrow my congressman, it’s a little tame but in the right direction.

Dean W. Ball Y @deanwball X.com Think about the power Hegseth is asserting here. He is claiming that the DoD can force all contractors to stop doing business of any kind with arbitrary other companies. In other words, every operating system vendor, every manufacturer of hardware, every hyperscaler, every type of firm the DoD contracts with—all their services and products can be denied to any economic actor at will by the Secretary of War. This is obviously a psychotic power grab. It is almost surely illegal, but the message it sends is that the United States Government is a completely unreliable partner for any kind of business. The damage done to our business environment is profound. No amount of deregulatory vibes sent by this administration matters compared to this arson.

TIL about the twilight zone helicopter crash.

Jack Shanahan, retired US Air Force General and first Director of the Department of Defense Joint Artificial Intelligence Center:

Excellent argument for purgatory. A void where you are completely alone with your own thoughts and insecurities and zero external validation would be a fitting eternity for someone like this.

They seem to have largely left the daily show alone

Looking back, I realize that I was likely long destined to be a fairly goth coded person. Missing an eye. Parents worked at a blood bank. Mom enucleated corpses as a side gig.

Sure, now you believe women.

You heard it ranchers. The GOP wants consumers to ditch beef.

I also have 4k in NoVA that I can ship asap just go through Bree’s links

Good for them!

These tech bros genuinely do not believe that every human alive has inherent value. It’s only about how other people can enrich them.

Perfect

Split parenting duties right now. I’m helping 13 make it through the dentist and partner is on the phone with 16 and school counselor because he was called a “fucking r-word” in class.

Non negotiable

Was thinking of you mentioning this when I wrote that. I’m down for any activist shenanigans in my very specific wheelhouse (nerdy, lefty, in my own home, no talking on phones)
