What The Hell Is Wrong With Us?, in which myself and @kitgonzo.bsky.social discuss various articles of culture and media that have made a significant impact on us, will return next weekend with a deep-dive into the seminal -but deeply unsettling- Bring Her Back.

if these companies would just put out a statement saying “we told him to go fuck himself” they would instantly have the type of loyal and dedicated customer base corporations dream of and spend decades trying to cultivate

Heard from a friend at Disney+ that there are multiple levels of freakout internally, both from internal dissatisfaction, concerns about subscription cancelations, and of course the big one: concern about a boycott spilling over into parks and cruises.

I would ask you to consider that buying a book by trans creators about trans characters sends a more powerful message about what a publisher should care about and spend their money on than not buying one.

Any advice for us who want to continue to support trans creators, but am extremely disappointed with DC Comics due to recent events™️?

My mom called me last night about the Kimmel firing, saying "This is how Hitler got started!" I quickly responded, "By firing the late night tv hosts?"

Turns out, mom was right.
Goebbels Ends Careers of Five 'Aryan' Actors Who Made Witticisms About the Nazi Regime

Feb. 4, 1939

February 4, 1939, Page 1

BERLIN, Feb. 3.—Propaganda Minister Joseph Goebbels today ended the professional careers of five "Aryan" actors and cabaret announcers by expelling them from the Reich's Chamber of Culture on the grounds that “in their public appearances they displayed a lack of any positive attitude toward National Socialism and therewith caused grave annoyance in public and especially to party comrades.” The five include perhaps the best known German stage comedians who survived previous Chamber of Culture purges and still dared to indulge in political witticisms—namely, Werner Finck, Peter Sachse and “The Three Rulands,” represented by Helmuth Buth, Wilhelm Meissner and Manfred Dlugi. Their expulsion means that they are henceforth forbidden to appear before the public in Germany.

Besides motivating this action in an official communiqué, Dr. Goebbels also publishes a long article in the Voelkischer Beobachter in which he denounces them as “brazen, impertinent, arrogant and tactless" and generally imitators and successors to Jews. Simultaneously he denounces the "society rabble that followed them with thundering applause—parasitic scum, inhabiting our luxury streets, that seems to have only the task of proving with how little brains people can get along and even acquire money and prominence."

As regards the details of the "crimes" of which the five are accused, Dr. Goebbels mentions that they made political witticisms about the colonial problem, the Four-Year Plan and Chancellor Hitler's monumental building program and one of them even raised the question of whether there was any humor left in Germany today.

What amused the public most, however, and presumably roiled the National Socialist authorities most—although Dr. Goebbels does not mention it—is that they deftly, but unmistakably, caricatured some gestures, poses and physical characteristics of Nat…

It is over for the genocide deniers.

Even the BBC is now splashing on the UN commission of inquiry concluding that Israel has committed genocide.

Those who supported Israel's onslaught:

You backed a genocide.

You will never scrub the shame away.

Seems like quite a moment. This morning, the UK was powered entirely by low-carbon energy, it seems.

Yes it's windy and sunny. But it's still a milestone.

We could have declared "100% zerocarbon" this morning when renewables+nuclear were generating 100% of UK consumption.

As usual this drove our price down, so exports up, and we had to run gas just to power the exports.

NESO set hard target that ZCO has to include exports as well as UK demand.

The version of this I keep seeing on FB is a wall of verbiage that, parsed carefully, amounts to 'yeah, but he used his indoor voice, mostly'.

It'll never stop being funny that a nazi billionaire in love with AI sets up his own AI and, AI being AI, it just reflects what it scrapes back at you, so sometimes, when it scrapes facts, it says stuff the nazi billionaire doesn't like, so he declares it wrong and has to ideologically reprogram it.

Some of y'all need to watch the movie Bob Roberts.

I mean. It's probably a little late. But you should watch it anyway.

I've met many people of faith at protest marches and rallies, following their faith to advocate for political change. I've far more in common with them than the ultra wealthy who are choking the planet.

How? You simply tell them to fuck if they are homophobic, transphobic or aren't secular. It's easy and refreshing.

26 Police Officers were injured in Londons fascist riots, but only 9 people were arrested.

At last week's Palestine Action protest 0 Police Officers were injured, but nearly 900 people were arrested.

The UK govt is chasing Reform votes & colluding with fascism, home & abroad.
