Highly recommend folks listen to @timlanning.bsky.social and @jennifercheek.bsky.social's "Tribulation Farce" podcast if you want to get the scoop on the Rapture, as well as understand why certain Republicans want to trigger WW3. Incredibly funny and insightful for the current political moment

I've been checking out the rapture tik toks since tomorrow is the big day and I gotta say... they are not delivering it. Like sure, laughing at their crazy asses is fun but I tried to watch an explanation on why it's tomorrow and it was so boring.

This podcast is fantastic and these books are so much worse than I remembered; if you want a crash course in why evangelical Christian nationalists are the way they are today, two smart, funny exvangelicals tearing this horrible apocalypse wish fulfillment series apart is a hell of a place to start.

In the 2010s, this country's elites were thrown onto social platforms with everyone else and could finally read what we all think about them and it caused them so much psychic damage that they decided to destroy both the internet and democracy to make sure nothing like it ever happened again.

If this is what it took for you to be pushed into fascism you were probably already there

This predates the social media wars of the late 2010s: One Trump appointee told me that a radicalizing experience was being booted out of the Gawker comments section, way back in the day. But as progressive movements swept through social media, others were tossed off Twitter and Facebook for stepping over a variety of lines, from allegations of harassment to claims of election misinformation. Pandemic era public health rules and fevered enforcement cost others their accounts.

Your anti muppet rhetoric manifested new muppet content.

#TheMuppetShow will return in 2026 as a Disney+ special from Seth Rogen starring Sabrina Carpenter. The hope is for the special to serve as a backdoor pilot for a new season of the iconic series bit.ly/3VmUmKt

Today, the UN officially designated Israel’s assault on Gaza as a genocide.

As a party to the Genocide Convention, the U.S. has a legal obligation to obey our own laws, stop weapons sales to Israel, and demand a permanent ceasefire.

End the genocide. Ceasefire now.

257. The Commission recommends that all Member States:
(a) Employ all means reasonably available to them to prevent the commission of genocide in the Gaza Strip;
(b) Cease the transfer of arms and other equipment or items, including jet fuel, to the State of Israel or third States where there is reason to suspect their use in military operations that have involved or could involve the commission of genocide;
(c) Ensure individuals and corporations in their territories and within their jurisdiction are not involved in the commission of genocide, aiding and assisting the commission of genocide or incitement to commit genocide and investigate and prosecute those who may be implicated in these crimes under international law;
(d) Facilitate the investigations and domestic proceedings and take action (including imposing sanctions) against the State of Israel and against individuals or corporations that are involved in or facilitating the commission of genocide or incitement to commit genocide;
(e) Cooperate with the investigation of the Office of the Prosecutor of the International Criminal Court.
258. The Commission recommends that the Prosecutor of the International Criminal Court:
(a) Examine, within its continuing investigation in the Situation in the State of Palestine, the crime of genocide for amendment to existing arrest warrants and addition to future application for arrest warrants;
(b) Examine the involvement of officials mentioned in this report for inclusion as those most responsible for international crimes committed in the occupied Palestinian territory.

I keep laughing at the at a lot of the bits including a few times at the dreaded clap trap. I have no real idea what is going on in the game other than the broad strokes of the story but it's fun.
