The NCO said that Pres. Trump was β€œanointed by Jesus to light the signal fire in Iran to cause Armageddon and mark his return to Earth.” It was not well received.

Who could have foreseen that telling troops they're fighting a brutal, bloody war to bring about the End Times would be bad for morale?

A sadistic 80s mobster was grafted onto the poison tree of Southern Baptist fundamentalism. We must hack it down or be obliged to eat the fruit.

This gave Hollywood β€œchills”?? It’s crap. Looks like jump cuts from a bad video game. The sound effects resemble vintage Hong Kong martial arts… β€œflying fists of fury”. Holy Batman. Whoosh, zap, pop.

Apparently, Tesla moved from California to Texas so they can dump toxic waste water on their neighbors without fear of any consequences.

Okay. Time for a thread about the Accelerationist propaganda mod for Hearts of Iron 4 and why it's bad that I don't see anyone in the field really talking about how video games and the networks around them are working to radicalize young men at an alarming rate. It urgently needs to be addressed /1

LOVE the symbolism of this.

Canada opened a consulate in Nuuk today, signaling support for Greenlanders rattled by President Donald Trump’s sovereignty threats while trying to avoid a fight with Washington. -Politico

They also plan on opening one in Anchorage, AK.

Virginia’s New Governor Ends ICE Program. Local Contracts Remain, For Now. - Bolts Abigail Spanberger left the 287(g) program, which empowered state law enforcement to detain immigrants. Will Democrats also bar local police and sheriffs from the program?

NEW: Abigail Spanberger this afternoon ordered that all state agencies leave ICE's 287(g) program.

This means that the state police (and some other agencies) will no longer be empowered to detain and arrest people for ICE.

Big, big move by the governor within weeks of coming into office.

New Mexico Senate approves bill to ban ICE detention centers The New Mexico Legislature approved the Immigration Safety Act. House bill 9 bars the state from allowing ICE detention centers.

This is another effort that has taken a HUGE amount of local activism, led by community folks who care.

It CAN be done. Get involved where you live and push back.

β€œThe Imaginary Portrait of the Marquis de Sade” by Man Ray.

Yes. To paraphrase M. de Sade, β€œThere is a greater difference between a rich man and poor man than a poor man and an animal.” The super rich do as they please to their victims and protect each other from consequences.

English Quaker merchant married a Cuthbert girl and fled England over Cromwell’s monarchal intrigues. 1600s America welcomed Quakers to Maryland. Things went downhill from there IMO.

Media, journalism, and the press are not interchangeable terms. Yet they are bound up with one another.

Media is the attention industry
Journalism is a social practice
The press is a key institution in a democracy

Put it all together: Journalists who work in the media carry forward "the press." 9/

"When in doubt, draw a distinction."

Not sure where he got it, but in grad school one of my teachers taught me that.

This (long) thread is about the key distinctions I rely on as a critic. There's a Twitter version from 2021. This one builds on that one.

I will post them one at a time. Ready?
