They’re always out to protect Benny “I totally didn’t know my entire media operation was being bankrolled by the Russian government” Johnson.

It seems like anyone who airs these clips should be required to show a live feed of Portland right after. The easiest way to fsct check the president is just to show current video of tue place he’s talking about, which is easily available.

He can’t do the weird hand thing with both arms anymore.

Shitty people standing on the shoulders of shitty people to continue the work of being incredibly shitty. Generational shittiness. I can’t help but think of Stephen Miller ranting racistly to White House aides and then telling the room more quietly, “I have have nothing else… this is my life.”

It is sort of funny that it follows Betteridge's law of headlines.

@jaketapper.bsky.social where's the article about this guy's brain leaking out of his skull

That is where it's heading. Micromanaging execs are coming to people and saying "chatgbt gave us this idea" or "I talked with chatgbt after that last meeting and have some thoughts." It is starting to eat away at research and creative conversation in a really negative way.

There wasn’t a lot of traction for their campaign on other social networks. Here and Reddit, you didn’t see outrage about their outrage. Maybe it’s people realizing after the Jimmy Kimmel thing that it’s easy to ignore rightwing cry bullies. Maybe, the NG deployment conversation was more immediate.

I get it but I can say for the first time in my life, having seen lots of weird religious billboards in the Bible Belt, that these anti-catholic billboards are the first billboards I’ve seen that specifically criticize another religion. It’s really odd.

Some of my favorite scientists are fonts of great wisdom about the value of creative work. It sometimes feels like Einstein spoke more about the value of creativity than science.

They all got really hopeful that they could fuck over LGBT people and Catholics in one fell swoop. The increasingly bubbling anti-catholic stuff from the evangelicals over the last few months has been a surprise. The weird anti-catholic billboards around here are utterly bizarre.

Indeed. All these pieces of shit can go flush themselves to Hell and burn forever.

Nothing to do with the president falling asleep at his televised meetings I’m sure. Where’s the press asking tough questions about the president’s health now?

I get this, and it’s not like I want game developers to “die in service to democracy,” but living in fear of political violence from right wingers isn’t any way to live or make things. Maybe they should be speaking out against people like Raya and other stochastic terrorists.
uhjustin.bsky.social
They had a black main cast in an Assassin’s Creed already. And a woman. The chuds whined but back then, there weren’t Nazis doing stochastic terrorist campaigns.

That really drives home how tech leadership reacted to new waves of labor unionization and started doing their best to put their fingers on the scale for conservatives.
uhjustin.bsky.social
They lost a non-trivial number of subscribers following the Trump agenda and it’s not getting them conservative subscribers, who already live comfortably in their rightwing information ecosystems. It’s the most important time to challenge fascism and they’re failing.

If I ever got onto one of those things, I’d ask him about how he feels about something completely made up but sounds plausible to maga brain to see if I could get him to wax on about it. Like “recent state indictments of Navy seals in Portland” or something.

It’d be nice but it’s a long tough road ahead because of our car culture and how spread out our cities are. I’ve been putting in the effort by using LA metro instead of driving whenever I can.
