He’s a former local television news anchor whose new gig involves using FB to monetize the reactionary rage of white Christian Oregonians. bsky.app/profile/seth...
Over the past 3 months Rick Dancer has acquired 9000 more FB followers. His FB content primarily consists of emotionally-inciting, Christian Nationalist rage bait leavened with reactionary nostalgia about how great Oregon used to be until "they" ruined it. bsky.app/profile/seth...
I know most folks on Bsky have left Facebook & for good reason, but I think it's important to note how that platform is distorting our information environment & breaking the brains of our fellow citizens. See, for example, the case of former local TV news anchor & shameless propagandist, Rick Dancer

I really wish someone with a nose ring would sharply tell Nate Silver that it’s important to talk as much as possible, so he would in reaction absolutely shut the fuck up forever

The horrific tragedy at Brown University is the 389th mass shooting this year and the 230th gun incident on school grounds so far this year.

This is not normal and we don't have to live this way.

We are not just going to sit around and put up with this. We are going to omit his entire second presidency and undo it all. As soon as we're able to get all this corruption out of the government and start over. It's bullshit. We have so much technology, so many resources. We can do better.

This should be the biggest story in the country right now. The sitting US President was extorting state lawmakers from his own party by threatening to withhold public money if they didn’t gerrymander for him.

I don’t know how else to say it…

A tiny trial in New York has shown that personalized mRNA vaccines can provoke massive, lasting immune responses against pancreatic cancer, even as sweeping federal cuts now threaten the fragile labs required to produce them.

You know, I'm 70 years old, and I've been thru hell, climbed close to heaven, and touched back down here on Earth, which had everything necessary for humans to thrive. Greed has destroyed much. Maybe it's too late to save it. But we need to try.

Fonts are now DEI. Fonts.

This is one of the least harmful things these chucklefucks are doing, but as a longstanding Times New Roman hater this particularly annoys me. Admit it, you absolute dickless dildo, it's just because the word Roman is in it, isn't it? Isn't it??
Marco Rubio ordered diplomats to return to using Times New Roman font in official communications, calling his predecessor's decision to adopt Calibri a “wasteful” diversity move
