Go to Russia, Yarvin, this fucking disaster you have helped unleash upon the world should make you hated by the vast majority of the people of the world. Just the USAID cuts will lead to countless people dying. You should be an outcast for the rest of your life. People should look at you in disgust.

this is an absolutely insane news conference for the Attorney General of the United States to be participating in.

(note how Benny Johnson describes the Annunciation shooting as an act of political violence, which is a lie)

🇺🇦👀 A rare phenomenon - "Brokensky ghost" recorded in the Carpathians.

This is a unique atmospheric phenomenon, when a person's shadow is cast on clouds or fog, surrounded by bright rings of sunlight.

Dude, I can create a lot of things and that is not a point here.

Right, that’s why it was listed as one of the things. Anyhow, the author of the post blocked me for, what exactly?

László 👏🏼✨

“László Krasznahorkai, who won the 2025 Nobel Prize in Literature today, is not the easiest writer to read. His sentences can go on for hundreds of pages; his plots don’t resolve, they dissolve; and his persistent mood is existential dread.”

Why the Latest Nobel Prize Winner Makes Perfect Sense

László Krasznahorkai is unusually experimental for a Nobel Prize winner, but in an unstable world, his selection feels perfectly timely.

what are your thoughts on NSPM-7, Trump’s directive to choke not only independent voices but all dissent?

Major Paincake @majorpaincake.bsky.social · 1d

Could you share your take on Trump’s dangerous NSPM-7?

Major Paincake @majorpaincake.bsky.social · 1d

I don’t really care, she’ll be fine with all the best lawyers. But thank you.
Have you heard of NSPM-7? Just wondering why the politicians, pundits and MSM doesn’t talk about it LOUD).

Letitia James and James Comey have the best lawyers on earth and will almost certainly be fine. The fact that there’s a zillion stories about them and virtually none about NSPM-7 - which affects countless ordinary people - really says something about who the media writes for
