Can someone tell me when Trump was funny? Is NYT talking about the jokes about disabled people or the jokes about women or are they just talking about Trump's dangerous targeting of people he hates? Is the schtick about siccing his mob on journalists funny? www.nytimes.com/2024/04/28/a...

Ian Ballantine, the paperback publisher who made Tolkien into a global bestseller and who, with his wife Betty, kicked off fantasy as a mass-market fiction category, was the favorite nephew of his half-great aunt, the anarchist Emma Goldman.

These people are dumber than a bag of hammers.

Why the hell did the WHCA invite Caitlyn Jenner? Why did she go?

this is what a political party that loves genocide more than winning elections looks like. #WHCD

Probably gonna stop using the RT button, I’m thinking there aren’t a lot of people seeing those.

I don’t truck with conspiracy theories but a cardboard cutout Patrick Bateman like Colin Jost being some famous comedy writer is too much to take on face value. “And he’s married to Scarlett Johansson,” it’s like, what?

My modest counterpoint to the "stupid campus discourse has replaced real news from Gaza" is that campus discourse has taken over because no one but a handful of weird and odious dead-enders can argue for Israel or against Palestinian aspirations at this point.

We’re dealing with catastrophic flooding in Nairobi, the result of decades of terrible governance and urban planning, climate change and neglect of informal settlements. Eurocentric climate literature presumes that the devastating impact on people will be mass migration when in fact people will die.

Israel is going to inspect every ship and "standards for inspection would be the same as those at the land crossings into Gaza." None of this makes any sense. You've invented a technological fix for a political problem.

A humanitarian pier that the U.S. military will bring to the Gaza Strip is expected to be ready to receive initial shipments of food and other aid early next month, according to military officials. Here's what we know about the process. nyti.ms/4dfDBso

All insurance “safe driver” discounts based on monitoring (even the opt-in kind not secret) are set up “heads I win, tails you lose”. They start with max discount and then deduct a % for every single hard brake, mph over speed limit etc so most drivers end up with no discount & they can sell data

People Are Slowly Realizing Their Auto Insurance Rates Are Skyrocketing Because Their Car Is Covertly Spying On Themwww.techdirt.com Last month the New York Times’ Kashmir Hill published a major story on how GM collects driver behavior data then sells access (through LexisNexis) to insurance companies, which will then jack…

To quote @alexandraerin.com : you know how you never see Peter Parker and Spider Man at the same time? It's kinda like that

patriot front is marching unopposed in West Virginia right now no police in sight. People really need to be asking why neo-Nazis are allowed to march with impunity while peaceful students protesting against genocide are being beaten, mercilessly and treated like a invading army.

The funniest thing is when they’re like “first it was the George Floyd protest and now it’s this” to show that it’s a shadowy conspiracy of indoctrination instead of the incredibly basic normal human emotion we’ve had for a million years of “please do not murder people”

The reaction to the Gaza protests reveals that there's a lot of people who genuinely cannot conceive of forming and holding a sincere, principled belief about the world on your own.

A 20-yo said some indefensible shit in Jan, before he was involved in the protests. Protest leaders (or other leaders) condemned the remarks and he also apologized for them. And it's a big story in the NYT bc we're in the grip of a moral panic over protests and bc the RW media call the tunes.

I for one am furious about the rampant antisemitism taking over college campuses.* (*which is obviously funded and coordinated by a Jewish billionaire who is also replacing white people with brown immigrants to solidify his position as the puppetmaster who secretly runs the world)

No, George Soros isn’t funding the campus protests. Gift link: wapo.st/3wlEmiO

Analysis | The dishonest — and ironic — push to blame campus protests on George Soroswapo.st Linking things to George Soros is a classic antisemitic ploy. Here it’s used to criticize protests described as antisemitic.

Bill Barr says Biden is a bigger threat than Trump because of gas stoves. Criticize and mock him—he deserves it—but "Fox told me Dems will take my gas stove so we’re entitled to, and must, overthrow Constitutional democracy" is a good distillation of the absurd-but-dangerous threat America faces.

Why don't the youth vote? People ask as both parties organize against them, make fun of them, openly hate them, won't ensure their safety in any situation and voice their support for the administrations arresting them and banning them from campus for sitting on the grass reading Edward Said
