I think once you've touched enough hot things in the kitchen you get to know exactly where your tolerance lies, and short exposures of anything less aren't particularly bothersome.

I kinda love the idea of dozens of these being blown in their faces, lol

ICE whistles are the perfect counter to Republican dogwhistles.

"DoorDash fascists" is gonna stick with me, I think.

I swear to god these are DoorDash fascists. Showing up late, in their own crappy car, no idea what they're doing. Did they get the wrong house? Too bad, you can contact AI support in some app probably.

Here's a link to a more detailed article, since the story linked above appears to omit some very important details.

The video appears to contradict the government's allegation that Marimar Martinez, 30, drove toward officers before one of them opened fire on her late Saturday morning on Kedzie Avenue near 39th Street, her attorney, Christopher Parente, said at a detention hearing at the Dirksen Federal Courthouse.

Tears stream down my face. Is this what it feels like to experience victory, purer and more complete than any man has ever known?

God I love that word. I can't remember where I saw it, but there was some video that said "Castlevania got its name because it's a Metroidvania set inside of a castle".

There are hundreds of reasons why age verification tech is a terrible idea, but the fact that none of it can keep your data safe is not the least of them.

New from 404 Media: the Discord hack is every users' worst nightmare. Yesterday the hackers started posting Discord users' selfies, identity documents, email addresses, phone numbers, more. I watched in real time. This is risk of tech storing ID for age verification

I heard from someone who knows someone who should know, that most of them hang out in coffee shops.

Grimdoot @grimdoot.bsky.social · 2d

The police have been doing so for ages, so it seems to me to be inevitable that the secret police will eventually do so as well.

The best thing would be to ask your local antifa chapter's training coordinator. If your local chapter doesn't yet have a training coordinator, consider running for the position yourself. Help fight fascism and get those sweet sweet Soros bucks!

Grimdoot @grimdoot.bsky.social · 3d

That thing where I type a word so many times that I start idly wondering if it's even spelled right or whether I just made up the spelling altogether.

Today is example is "attack".

The more I look at it, the weirder it gets.

Ack ack ack attack.
