Iran regime change advocates got what they spent decades pushing for—the US to launch a big war to collapse Iran’s government—and they’re still not happy.
Because what they pushed for years was a fantasy of a smooth, easy regime change war that gets everyone to tell them they were right all along.
It really sucks to see NBC Washington post a reel on Instagram that takes credit for sharing the DOGE USIP raid body cam footage with the world. They mention The Handbasket in the caption knowing full well that all people are going to see is the video. Pretty shameless.
if you take something erotic that openly signals its intended audience and expose it to a different audience with the intent to gawk at it in disgust, even if it was posted on a public platform to begin with, you're lowkey doing a sexual harassment & it's a grey area that should be noticed more imo
to me it rocks that this company that has never come within light-years of making money and has a bad product with zero practical use cases is the pivot point of the global economy because a bunch of embarrassing Burning Man dorks just decided it should be
They've now killed four people -- three U.S. citizens and a Mexican national. They've shot several more.
They've lied about all of them. They haven't shaded the truth. They haven't "misled" us. They've brazenly, knowingly lied while in possession of the evidence disproving their lies.
Refusing to cultivate other candidates years out when base voters make it clear one candidate is morally objectionable?
That’s a choice.
Newsom’s online supporters get off on the idea of forcing marginalized communities & their allies to vote for him. And their plan to blame them when Newsom loses
NEWSOM HAS LOST THE LEFT FLANK AND EVERYONE FROM CALIFORNIA.
He is NOT electable in a general election! He only appeals to a very narrow range of voters!
Try someone else!
IF Gavin Newsom is on a ballot
THEN me and many others will refuse to vote for him
THEREFORE instead of bitching at me and others like me
YOU should take the *years* you have and make sure that doesn't happen if you actually fucking care
BECAUSE my position is immutable
If I can’t unionize Claude then it’s not conscious, next question
if the strategy from Harris’ people was to try and persuade the ever shrinking “Trump skeptical Republican” demographic at the expense of what turns out to be a not insignificant number of actual democrats, then they failed. that much is clear to anyone with a brain and eyes
I live in one of the badly-gerrymandered ny districts that was formerly a dem stronghold. We badly need to redraw the map and send Lawler packing
(Polio. It's polio)
If you want to stop Newsom, build up his negatives with Black voters *now.* Emphasize how he keeps hanging out with racists and inviting them to talk on his show. Ask how Black people have fared in his California and how he’s responded to racism against us. What was he doing in 2014? 2016? 2020?
You are doomcasting and making it trans people’s problem. Newsom is unelectable. Instead of spiraling get the word out not to vote for him in the primaries.
Chlorine dioxide is an industrial bleach for lumber and freaks like RFK give autistic kids enemas with it. Kids die from the practice. These people just want autistic kids dead.
there's so much bad in the world but there's also people who lift up and carry an elderly bat around every day so he can pretend he's flying again, and that's the part of the world I think is worth fighting for
his killer being a man who murdered three people including a pregnant woman who he also raped is a perfect demonstration of how ‘paedophile hunters’ are just violent men looking for a socially acceptable target for their violence
It doesn’t matter whether the rate of global warming is increasing. It’ll never cease to amaze me that people don’t care that it’s happening at all. It should be the most alarming thing ever.
You cannot trust the British press. About anything, but especially not about trans people. They are habitual, cruel, vicious liars, and their aim is only to inflict as much damage as possible, however they can.
“Our job is to love others without stopping to inquire whether or not they are worthy. That is not our business and, in fact, it is nobody's business.”
The whole chronic honesty part of audhd is kind of cool because people mistake it as a virtue
But it also sucks when you're struggling in your 20s and feel awful bc your peers are seemingly thriving, until you realize 8yrs later "ohhh they were lying, fuck I didn't know we could do that"
It's wild that the same people scolding progressives "you have to learn how to play the politics and optics" when it concerns trans people or genocide are suddenly like "hell YES we want a guy to run in the general that lets Republicans say 'but it's the Democrats are the ones with Nazi tattoos!!'"
There's a certain class of person who thinks moral injunctions are just made up games of civility that you can violate freely to "make a point." Today it's goat fucking, tomorrow it could be beating toddlers to death with hammers. It's all just a signaling game for these folks.
We need to stop blaming a technology for the decisions being made by humans to exploit that technology for profit.
Generative artificial intelligence can't "exhibit anxiety." It isn't embodied. It has no persistent psychological state.
It's not intelligent. It's roleplaying.
Like Kristi Noem.
Yep. “Knowing who to be mad at is praxis” is Mariame Kaba’s quote and it is wisdom for these times. (1/2)
Tech bro oligarch: The AI is... real... sentient.... it's feeling real feelings... we must do everything we can to protect it and give it rights
Also tech bro oligarch: Human females are basically cattle made to push out as many babies as possible, all of which I will neglect
You might recall this thread about a slop book scam website from last month.
Today I got a fake invitation to do a radio interview which claimed the station was in partnership with the very same slop website.
A portrait of a short eared owl face
All of our wildlife patients this year so far have been owls, but this is our first short-eared.
You can help prevent car strikes like this by obeying rural speed limits and not throwing any litter out of cars. Even organics like apple cores attract rodents to roads, which attracts their hunters. 🪶
