Ya know I fucking hate Putin and shockingly that doesn’t make me wish for genocide of Russia. For some reason this is controversial.

I’m not sure I’ve seen a greater delusion of grandeur this month than the NAFO clowns claiming they were the only ones who knew Twitter was infested with Russian trolls

A good thread on how masculinity is beaten into men (i will add it’s, even more horribly, also beaten into any trans women who are raised as if they are men, per many stated experiences).
So many men go through life like that. You can play poker because it's right-coded, you can't enjoy fruity alcoholic drinks because they're women-coded, you can't lick an ice cream cone because it's gay-coded. All day, every day, choosing and judging things based on coding for narrow norms.

Since Bari Weiss is talking about the need to platform Alan Dershowitz, now feels like a good time to mention the fact multiple Epstein survivors have said Alan raped them too.

Spoke with a source who told me the call volume is so high, a call center for both Mastercard & Visa is bringing out pizza and ice cream so agents don’t quite amid the rush. Long waits are causing dropped calls.

What you’re doing is working. Call MC & Visa.

Key takeaway of 2025: Bluesky is an enormous activism force that punches above its weight. The paypros censorship stuff? This site is the one that’s getting us to the 20 yard line. The initial interest in the summer hasn’t returned to Twitter, whereas Bluesky is now the de facto source on this issue

Best understood, Labour's attack on juries, as a further lurch towards authoritarianism. Who, now, will stand in the way of a State that wants to imprison its opponents?

I think any company that wants a bailout should be forced to sign a pledge to not invest any more money in AI and put a dunce cap on every stakeholder who previously did so + punch Sam Altman in the dick and balls one time per $100 received.

One thing that fiction, and even the press, tends to get wrong about fascism is how incompetent they are and how much they hate each other.

Even now they're fighting each other.

Brazil’s Supreme Court ordered Jair Bolsonaro, former president, to begin serving his 27 year sentence at the Federal Police headquarters—

I find myself simultaneously envious & hopeful the #Trump regime will find a similar moment of accountability

Every economy op-ed writer: No see, you can't buy a house because you buy too many avocado toasts but you're hurting the economy by not buying a new $1,000 phone each year. I am very smart. Also don't ask me about my emails with Epstein.

It's a truism of the internet and like low information voters than having older leaders is bad, which twists whats wrong with Trump or Mitch McConnell is their age not their politics, or that everyone old has to have conservative/bad politics

which is bullshit
