very funny that JD Vance has so little to do with his time that he goes on podcasts to defend 30-year-old men for saying how much they love Hitler

Aaron Rupar @atrupar.com · 7h

JD Vance dismisses Young Republicans who in a group chat said "I love Hitler" and joked about slavery and rape as "a bunch of kids" who "told stupid jokes" and adds that "most of the stupid things I did when I was a teenager and young adult, they're not on the internet."

Thinking about the suicidal Mario again

An arcade machine with "HAVE A GREAT DAY" holding a giant stuffed Mario but holding him in such a way he kinda looks like he's hung himself. He did not have a great day.

Fascinating. Politico notes that when notified of the texts, many state-level Republicans fired or condemned these cretins. Now Vance emerges to excuse the racism, and calls the reaction to it "pearl clutching."

He seems determined to purge the party of its last enclaves of decency.

The boring and obvious take that anti-woke positions have the effect (and in many cases the intent) of making it acceptable in polite circles to be a degenerate racist was and remains correct.

The Tigers lost a heartbreaker in Game 5 of the ALDS when they fell to the Mariners in 15 innings. Detroit was viewed as one of the best teams — if not the best team — in baseball throughout the first half but slumped to a 34-43 record from the start of July onward. They…

Team Dunstone keeps rolling.

Opens with an 8-3 victory over Team Kleiter.

Dunstone won the first Slam of the season. Then the PointsBet. And cruises to an opening win to begin the Slam in Nisku.

Part of the fun of composing this bot is finding these magnificent artworks that would otherwise go completely forgotten and uncommented on. (Source.)

A complex piece by John Matteos, in an Art Deco take on the Cyberpunk Classic style. In a red frame, three silhouetted heads (each with gears, interlocking between the three heads) are superimposed over a gold CD; a globe is superimposed over all three. The top head is facing left; his gear is driving the globe. Where he peers left, he 'scans', his human eyes revealed as his grey view looks over the curvature of the CD. The middle head is facing right; where she peers, her human eyes revealed as her red view looks over a painting of a tree. The bottom head is facing left; where he looks, his yellow view superimposes a keyboard and mouse, but in his view, it is revealed to be a human hand.

This is why the inflatable costumes works so well -- it works the same way calling them "weird" or "creepy" did. It disrupts their narrative, and makes them seem pathetic rather than cool-and-cruel.

The recent trajectory, in broad strokes:

- Regime starts militarizing the conflict in early summer
- Regime declares all liberal/leftwing political activity as domestic terrorist or terrorism-adjacent in presidential memo
- Regime ramps up the propaganda against “the Left” across all channels

Thomas Zimmer @thomaszimmer.bsky.social · 3d

The regime gets more deranged every day. A rightwing conspiracy theorist assassinated a Democratic lawmaker - which the attorney general presents as an example of leftwing political violence in order to justify an authoritarian crackdown on the opposition…

We’re in incredibly dangerous territory.
