After starting from Episode 1, after over a year, I am finally current with The Adventure Zone and now must experience the pain of waiting for new episodes.

I should start over.

the actual story here, which the media never talks about, is that police in this country have become a discrete right-wing political operation. the story isn't about cops leaving (they're lying about that), it's about the police trying to exert influence over elections.

Lmao is this supposed to be a bad thing?

A tweet from Bari Weiss that says “"It's shaken me to my core," a lieutenant said of Mamdani's unexpected victory in June. "The absolute dread I feel is palpable.

A 13-year-old boy was arrested by ICE in Everett and sent to a juvenile detention facility in Virginia.
A 13-year-old boy was arrested by ICE in Everett and sent to a juvenile detention facility in Virginia.
A 13-year-old boy was arrested by Immigration and Customs Enforcement agents in Everett after an interaction with members of the Everett Police Department and sent to a juvenile detention facility in Virginia, according to his mother and immigration lawyer Andrew Lattarulo.

The boy’s mother, Josiele Berto, was called to pick her son up from the Everett Police Department on Thursday, the day he was arrested. After waiting for about an hour and a half, she was told her son was taken by ICE, Berto told the Globe in a phone interview.

“My world collapsed,” Berto said in Portuguese.

From the police department, the boy was taken to ICE’s holding facility in Burlington on Thursday evening, where he spent a night before being transferred by car to the Northwestern Regional Juvenile Detention Center in Winchester, Va., on Friday morning, his mother said. The juvenile facility is more than 500 miles away from Everett.

The boy is a 7th-grader at Albert N. Parlin School in Everett, his mother said. The teen and his family, who are Brazilian nationals, have a pending asylum case and are authorized to work legally in the United States, Lattarulo said.

yearly reminder to people insisting that we view Christopher Columbus as "a man of his time" that *the people responsible for the Spanish Inquisition* thought Columbus was out of pocket

Thomas Lecaque @tlecaque.bsky.social · 3d

Christopher Columbus was dragged back to Spain in chains by a crusading knight, convicted of tyranny and immeasurable cruelty, pardoned by Isabella but banned from returning to Hispaniola.

Fuck Columbus.

Why do you think he's filling the White House with podcasters and TV personalities?

Orchestructive @orchestructive.com · 6d

You know, odds are he's going to just die randomly and very boringly, having never received an ounce of punishment, then we all have to watch a bunch of tributes because there is no god and no justice in this world, then likely someone more dangerous and less-stupid will take his place

Alex Jones has asked the Supreme Court to immediately put his almost $1.5 billion defamation judgment on hold, citing the imminent threat of InfoWars being handed over to The Onion.

If there isn't a stay, "InfoWars will have been acquired by its ideological nemesis and destroyed," the filing says.

Besides linking Tylenol in pregnant women to autism, RFK Jr. now says circumcision is part of the reason why kids are autistic.

"Children who are circumcised early have double the rate of autism, and it's highly likely because they're given Tylenol. None of this is positive..."

Alt text:
A collage of four tweets from Matt Walsh (@MattWalshBlog) discussing concerns about artificial intelligence.

Top left tweet: Walsh warns that within a year or two, people will be able to create indistinguishable fake videos for defamation, and that nothing is being done to prevent this.
Bottom left tweet: He says AI will destroy jobs, art, reality, and civilization, yet no action is being taken to stop it.
Top right tweet: He criticizes AI-generated films as soulless and meaningless, saying art requires human expression and that AI will be the “death of art.”
Bottom right tweet: Walsh argues that if a robot paints a picture, the robot is the artist, not the person prompting it, because the robot lacks consciousness and meaning.

This is by virtue of all the "is this too hardcore? Have these two gone TOO far?" discourse that Funk/Foley received in their day for doing just as much (if not more) crazy shit.

Hot take:

Jon Moxley / Darby Allin are well on their way to being this generation's Terry Funk/Mick Foley.
