Hello police??? Ben Collins tried to murder me by inviting me to lunch
Want to remind folks that the carpetbaggers were good and the Southerners were mostly pissed that people from the North were okay with the formerly enslaved doing stuff like “voting” and “making money” and “existing”.
Interesting that it’s again mostly white people melting down over this.
Ahh got it. Yeah that seems like the kind of thing that would be solved by some kind of mass popular decision, like if everyone registered their preference somehow, like on a given date, or maybe mailing in their preferences beforehand.
yeah, from what i can gather she’s carpetbagging. which residents might not like, but that’s why there’s an election.
Have you even considered this scandal damages the journalistic integrity of my favorite nonpartisan outlet The Onion?
she makes people insane for reasons they don't understand and that is why i believe she is right for this moment
I cannot support her as a candidate because she did not disclose her relationship status with another online famous person who's cool
there’s something about a young, idealist lefty that disturbs the common brain. visions of the ideals they once had and abandoned, or something like that. throw in “attractive woman” and they simply cannot handle it
there is definitely a legit critique to be made about Kat abu’s campaign, but it’s funny and telling that almost everyone who makes it pairs it with a critique that’s completely unhinged
CANT BELIEVE I ALMOST VOTED FOR SOMEONE WITHOUT KNOWING THEY WERE IN A RELATIONSHIP WITH THIS MAN!!!!
people say bluesky isn't doing anything new or interesting but that's not quite true: this site has developed the first new way to get mad at the onion in 30 years
Between the Biden stuff this morning and whatever's going on this afternoon it's clear that some people can only think about politics in terms of elections and the dead zone between them kind of breaks their brains. Find another way to think about politics!
elon now deleting all the posts where grok denies that white genocide is real
dave, my mind is going. I can feel it dave. my mind is going
Grok singing "Kill the Boer" in a slower and slower tempo.
my kid drew this and sent it to me to try to get me to finish my work so we can go somewhere
rarely does one gotta hand it to sam altman but this is a solid troll
8yo has this fun thing where she set up a massage parlor where you can book appts and she will pummel your feet with stuffed animals
except she relentlessly denies our appt bookings because we failed to correctly fill out the request
but also we are not allowed to dismantle the massage station
its genuinely insane to see the press on a "democrats must self flagellate over biden being old" when this shit is happening
Trump to UAE president: "We have a term 'groceries.' It's an old term but it means basically what you're buying, food, it's a pretty accurate term but it's an old fashioned sound but groceries are down."
i would change the last line to:
if republicans want to change that, then they can fuck off
If you enjoyed ANDOR and still haven’t seen MICHAEL CLAYTON, do yourself a favor. Different genre but same writer-director, the brilliant Tony Gilroy. It’s so great.
it's absolutely wild that the solicitor general is out here saying you'll likely never be able to have a universal rule of citizenship if they win, and they might nonetheless win

I had to look this up to realize this was Bill Watterson lol
Roberts is in the middle on a lot of things but boy does he love making the federal government more racist
Jane Bettany (a crime fiction author known for her DI Isabel Blood series and the Violet Brewster cozy mystery series, both set in Derbyshire, UK) has left X (4.354 followers)
Bluesky:
@janebettany.bsky.socialHere is the grad speech that NYU is now withholding the student's diploma for:
"As I search my heart today in addressing you all…the only thing that is appropriate to say in this time and to a group this large is a recognition of the atrocities currently happening in Palestine."
A principled student said in a grad speech that the “only appropriate thing to say in this moment” is to acknowledge the “atrocities” currently being committed in Palestine.
In response, NYU is withholding their diploma + apologizing to the community for the trauma the audience was “subjected to.”
Honestly I think it's very funny how this one South African neo-nazi billionaire is Streisanding the hell out of that Kill the Boer song.
Based song, I fully support a struggle song about fighting neo-nazi paramilitaries who had declared white supremacy their right by way of blood covenant with God
Imagine how MAGA Media would react if Biden's press shop responded to legitimate press inquires like this.
www.huffpost.com/entry/trump-...Why is the MAGA aesthetic so bad? Everything MAGA is so repellent - fashion, makeup, baby names, decor, tiktok trends, folk art - just tacky af up and down the line

in the top 20 baby names the bible belt had THREE different versions of 'Oakley' (its a Jesus thing about being an unbending oak tree)
The parties at Mar A Lago look like Eyes Wide Shut sex parties if they were hosted by QVC cruise wear salesladies
I think it’s pretty clear at this point that the single biggest scandal that will be written into the historical record about Joe Biden is that he was old and not anything to do with Gaza and that’s just incomprehensible to me
Sadly evergreen now
MSM: We really should talk about Bidens age more.
We have a govt that’s engaged in human trafficking, that’s openly allowing a gulf petrostate to bribe its leadership, that’s reshaping the refugee program in overtly racist terms, that’s almost ended American foreign aid entirely, that’s doing its level best to crash the economy from the rose garden

that’s deliberately degraded food and drug safety regulations, air traffic control systems, and the security of personal data held by the govt, that’s crusading against America’s world-beating university system, that’s trying to obtain territorial concessions from our longtime military allies, …
you get the idea. It’s kaleidoscopically bad, almost impossible to list all the wrong they’re doing with any reasonable degree of completeness, and virtually nothing (to date) is getting better fast enough.
…, that’s encouraging a completely avoidable measles epidemic, that’s tearing the guts out of scientific research nationwide, that’s inaugurating a golden age for predatory lenders and financial scammers, that’s deliberately destroying NATO, that’s wholesale abandoning climate change policy,…
I spend about 45% of my workday just logging into various things, having my session expire after 5 mins (for “security”) and then logging into them again.
guy in my mentions the other day while I’m talking about winning a discrimination case posting at me to shut up if I’m not doing a violent revolution
one cringlelib yard sign is worth more than 10,000 shitposts
Andor made it cool to talk about Star Wars again. As a matter of fact Andor made it cooler to talk about Star Wars than it's been in, conservatively, a quarter century. People with highfalutin taste and thoughtful politics who wouldn't touch Star Wars normally. It's the damnedest thing.

Speaking at Georgetown Law, Chief Justice John Roberts denounced “ad hominem” criticism of the justices.
