The samuree died with the neenja

Prologue to New Gods by Jack Kirby:
Epilogue
There came a time when the old gods died! The brave died with the cunning! The noble perished, locked in battle with unleashed evil! It was the last day for them! An ancient era was passing in fiery holocaust!

During his first term I was saying to a friend that his whole family was assholes who deserve nothing but pain for the rest of their lives and he said "Well not Baron, he's just a kid." I did not agree 💅

Scott Horton @robertscotthorton.bsky.social · 1d

Trump said he deserved a cut for brokering the TikTok deal, and at once there was agreement that his son Baron would have a top executive slot... though he hasn't asked for it, and has no apparent qualifications to hold it. This is how Trump 2.0 works. www.telegraph.co.uk/us/news/2025...

Wild how many billionaires are in the pro-civil war side and they can't pay for shit

Dead-vid Kill-iams @davidw1457.bsky.social · 14h

Hey, chat, is it good to start a civil war while you're unable to pay your military and their families are going without food?

I feel lots of things that felt like, were billed as, self-actualization read in retrospect as canaries in the coal mine for the fraying commitments we owe to each other as members of a society.

Aubrey Gilleran @aubreygilleran.bsky.social · 19h

Relatedly, I recall a lot of "the joy of canceling plans" jokes and memes from the 2010s and now folks are talking about a loneliness epidemic, and, well...

People will scoff at virtue signaling and then wonder why today’s billionaires don’t build museums, libraries, hospitals, and universities like Gilded Age ones did.

Wife: He's got that cult he runs, too

Me: I don't think people like him for that...

Wife:The cult members do

I'd start by pressuring elected officials to stop recognizing the authority of the court. Supporting officials who promise to fix it once in power and to refuse to recognize any of its rulings since at least 2015 as valid. And investigate, charge, prosecute, and convict its extremist members.

The Supreme Court found that the police are under no obligation to protect people, even when there is credible and imminent danger. Congrats on learning that cops aren't your friends, ICE

Tbc, not excusing the banning of Link. Everything I've seen about that is fucked up and Jay should be ashamed

The number of times I hit Discard because I think "This person is not my friend IRL and may take this the wrong way and instablock" is... higher than you'd expect considering how white, cishet, & male I am. Discard is your friend. Or not. YOLO. Go out in a blaze of glory like Jaboukie Young-White

I agree with your point, but will riff off of it to say: people don’t spend enough time thinking about what’s the most bad-faith way someone could interpret the thing I’m saying, and if that would be a bad interpretation then maybe I shouldn’t say it. That’s where Link made his mistake.

The Catholic Church requires bishops to submit their resignation to the Pope when they turn 75 and the Pope chooses whether to accept it or not and as much as I hate having to hand anything to the Catholic Church, they are kinda on to something
