Wow. @nytimes.com has closed their Threads account and left the platform after days of getting just shredded in the replies for their handling of Biden post debate.
Now they're getting dog piled on Instagram for running from Threads.
I'm not watching the Stephanopoulos interview closely, but someone here has it on and he keeps asking what Biden thinks of articles that have been published in the last week. If I wanted to watch the press jack off, I know how to find porn online, thank you
Doomerism is chickenshit. an embarrassment to every ape that threw a rock at a bear to protect the tribe. if you actually believe this doomer shit what are you posting for? it's chickenshit and i will have no truck with it. you had something better to do with your life than make the world better?
THE sentence of the day: A Macronist incumbent in the Marseille region came in 3rd in her seat. She just dropped out to support the left. She said, about why she's maneuvering to block the far-right:
"Defeats happen, but you can never recover from dishonor."
Pro Russia leftists continue to get publicly humiliated every day as it becomes more and more obvious that Russia is supporting a far right power grab worldwide
as a politics knower I think the democrats should simply do the thing that makes it easiest to win, but also aligns with both all my prior posts and all my most panicked recent posts. this is very simple and obvious.
All of which is to say yes, national holiday please. 😁 And I'll spend a moment in fond remembrance of the horrified looks on two white supremacist teachers' faces as they watched an overly dramatic fat nerd ruin their solemn occasion while collapsing over a splintered flagpole.
This in a bad fake southern accent, natch. I also jammed the flagpole in a rock pile, very dramatic except I broke the flagpole. My weird Confederate-in-a-Union-state teacher was not amused. 😁
She sent me to sit on the bus, which, no, so I wandered the battlefield unaccompanied.
When I was in middle school in Maryland, they took us to Gettysburg and made us reenact Pickett's Charge. We had little colored badges they would call out to tell us when to die. I got to carry a regimental flag. When I died, I cried out, "I die young, but I die for slavery! racism! and hate!"
I think we could all use a bit of pick-me-up right about now, so seeing as it's July 3rd, why don't we once again reflect on one of the greatest white supremacist self-owns in military history:
I love this Japanese promotional image for Lincoln so much because it makes it look like an action movie wherein Lincoln personally razes Georgia to the ground
Found out MIA is spending her days now hawking tinfoil hats and faraday cage briefcases, and like, I can't tell if this is a ridiculous collapse or completely on-brand.
Software Update: We’ve added a new AI assistant! It calls itself “The Admiral” and we don’t know why. Ignore them if it tells you that dying at sea is the only worthy death
I was on a panel yesterday and the moderator said, “I love your optimism [about addressing climate change]”
I deadpanned, sincerely: “we have no choice”
Defund the Police: Contested meaning, invites questions about what the police do
What do we even pay those fuckers for?: Clear meaning, invites answers about what the police do
If they're offering head and a sailing vessel then they're definitely running a scam. Watch out they may try to give you a junk, or a brig, or god forbid a barque
Last week I received a letter telling me that I had violated LAPD IP with my FUCK THE LAPD design. Today my lawyer @questauthority.bsky.social responded.
Daughter tells me she heard today that if you wear a band T-shirt (especially as a young woman) and a man says to you “name five of their songs”, the correct response is “name five women who trust you”, so I pass this on in case any of you need it
