It's been repeated ad infinitum lately all over but Pam Bondi keeps on needing reminder that although Nixon never went to jail his Attorney General did anyways.

The Committee Against Torture is trying to raise awareness about torture in Russia with a new video. The three-minute footage is voiced by the Russian actors Varvara Shmykova and Nikita Kukushkin, it's claymation, and it is absolutely brutal. meduza.io/en/feature/2...

Say whatever you like about the tenets of elitism at least it's an ethos. But Nihilists, man? F**k Nihilists they're just harbingers of armageddon!

I kinda wanna cc this to Matthew Inmam of The Oatmeal.

But he probably don't take random at-mentions from strangers nowadays. I mean, I don't really myself either. With how enshittified the whole Social Web currently is.

Apologies beforehand if perhaps innapropriate, and I mean this in the sincerest & most positive way possible, but the above very much feels like a @wheezywaiter.bsky.social tweet.

Like, the vibe. I'm not saying anyone stole anything from anyone no no no no! It's just…

Anyways. Cake!

Can Netanyahu and Hamas leadership pull this off? Remains to be seen.

But to be clear I personally am on the camp of "mutually pursued genocide IS NOT the way to go".

//.. but I will at least hint that it wasn't that long ago relatively speaking. Not today though the thoughts weren't in my head today but regardless! It's good 2b reminded why & how one should like to be alive.
