It’s that time again
I’m going to write a long essay about this soon, but yesterday morning I woke up to a revelation. Every time someone has said to me, “you’re talented, but you need to team up with this more famous/popular/connected person in order to succeed on this project…” that project has failed. 1/?
I know this is not a real problem but it is 5am and there is a cricket somewhere in or around my nightstand that sounds like an alarm clock and I swear if I find it I am going to fist fight this cricket
If he keeps showing up I’m going to add him to the group chat.
Did you think I was only going to post one delightful raccoon photo? Think again, friendo! He shows up every night and does not seem to be afraid of me unless I sneeze which is weird but I’m not worried about it!
Oh this looks fantastic!
A strong statement from Sen. Thom Tillis.
Months after surviving an assassination attempt, the Hoffman family issued a strong statement condemning the horrific political violence against Charlie Kirk and urging all leaders not to accept this as our reality.
It’s a crowd with a white tent, outside. I saw it because I didn’t realize what I was looking at. So, crowd? White tent? Loooook awaaaay
It’s a compilation of the dumbest things your former high school classmates have ever shared a fb post about. No one missed Jack Thompson, we don’t need to do this again.
Funniest possible person to say nothing bad happened when he was a kid as a result of everyone having guns
Went to see which feral cat had come to eat, found this guy instead.
It probably hallucinates at the same rate as RFK so this makes a certain amount of sense.
I can

I am always on the lookout for large tote bags that fold up really small because I need them for groceries and shopping.
Sincere respect, not even joking.
Same. I don’t want him to die feeling like an accomplished winner.

Whenever it happens it’ll be so funny to see the Gavin Newsom account drop kayfabe and be all respectful
This reminds me of the night during the pandemic when That Guy had COVID and I drove down to the IKEA in Orange County and on the way back suddenly there were fireworks going off everywhere all around me and I was like “HOLY SHIT DID IT HAPPEN” but no the Lakers had just won the championship
Well now I do. ಠ_ಠ
Absolute Martian Manhunter. The six covers of the first arc.
Is this gonna be like a North Korea situation where every time he disappears we’re convinced he’s secretly dead?
If someone tells you there's nothing we can do about gun violence beyond thoughts and prayers, remind them: —Gun laws in other countries have prevented mass shootings —More guns don't make us safer —A majority of Americans want gun reform We don't have to live like this.
We are the only developed country where mass shootings happen on a regular basis. It doesn’t have to be this way.
Does he really not understand that SSRIs exist outside of the US? Actually no, I’d be surprised if he knows where he is at any given moment.

The Trump administration is making buying cameras, retro games, board games, skincare, flashlights, sex toys, watches, and anything else from overseas far more complicated, slow, and expensive. 🔗 www.404media.co/trump-tariff...

Public health disinformation is killing our country.

I think this current crypto wave has been largely driven by the fact that all of the regulatory mechanisms for fighting the most egregious fraud in the space have been dismantled by Trump. It’s just a gold rush until it collapses again like in 2022.
That cracker and his barrel were protecting everyone from THE WOKE and now nothing stands in its way.
Pretty sure I only ever went because I was at the mercy of a group of the Silent Generation and their universal love of gravy with no seasoning.
Good night Bluesky. Together is the only way we build liveable todays and tomorrows. Moreover we must destroy ICE & smash fascism.
I’m having the same problem with Facebook reels. I clicked on ONE conservative thing to report it for misinformation and now I’m inundated with idiots spouting chemtrail bullshit or insisting that LA had citywide riots that Trump/National Guard stopped.
A United States Senate investigation has identified more than 500 credible reports of human rights abuses in US immigration detention since January, including alarming allegations of mistreatment of pregnant women and children.
Went ahead and updated my map of cities with higher crime than D.C. to accommodate the two new states from the Deep South who are sending troops to the capital. In the five states there are 64 cities, home to 1.7 million people, that had more crime in 2024 than D.C. www.pbump.net/o/more-peopl...
The gilded age but literal because that’s how dumb all of this is.
monarchy in the US absolutely sucks
UPDATE: Texas Dems have now launched a livestream of the House chamber. x.com/texashdc/sta...
I’m having UNHINGED far right misinfo reels recommended in my fb feed because I clicked on & reported a reel some idiot from high school posted. I’m afraid to mention it’s happening on fb/instagram because I don’t want to make it worse. This is not how I thought the internet would be.
Texas Republicans are holding a Black woman, a Democratic state rep, hostage in the legislative chamber. They have locked the doors and have banned her from leaving.
“They are also being comforted by their girlfriend they met at camp. You wouldn’t know her. She lives in Canada.”
Yup.
has any institution in your life, you, the american voter, delivered harder than the biomedical research complex? a fuckin respiratory virus shows up out of nowhere you get a vaccine ahead of schedule. meanwhile we're knocking out HIV and diabetes and goddamned pancreatic cancer on the side.
I absolutely loathed a very popular sci-fi thing that just came out and yet, I have refrained from writing any essays or creating a YouTube channel somehow. 🤔
Huge thanks to the dozens of climate scientists who sent us their rebuttals to the catalogue of outright falsehoods and misleading claims in Trump's new 'critical' climate report. This factcheck is the longest article CB has ever published - 27,500 words already and likely to keep growing...
New ICE data show that the court order banning profiling reduced ICE arrests in LA by 66%! In other words, ICE is effectively admitting that TWO THIRDS of LA arrests were unconstitutional profiling. Did they admit this to the court? NO! They lied to the courts...
New from 404 Media: ICE added a random person to group chat, exposed highly sensitive details about an active manhunt in real-time. The person says they were added weeks ago, thought they were scam texts until start seeing data lookups etc. Incredible security failure www.404media.co/ice-adds-ran...
What’s craaaazy to me is that a Minnesota state rep was ASSASSINATED and nothing even remotely close to this happened there
You really should have the book already though. It’s so good!!
work is pretty much always like this but for some reason this week feels ESPECIALLY Like This
hey
Superman’s Pal Jimmy Olsen won two Eisners for good reason—Matt Fraction & @stevelieberart.bsky.social made a comic that’s smart, hilarious, and totally unique. I got to sit down with both of them to talk about how it came together. New Helioscope video here: youtu.be/Dd4uonwOvhI
dawg they got dudes in pink polos throwing sandwiches on them and these are the *good* times for the admin
Washington DC has 702,000 people, is 45% Black and has 0 senators Wyoming has 590,000 people, is 86% white and has 2 senators DC needs a state with proper representation, not a military takeover
Trump's DOJ just cleared the way for healthcare monopoly UnitedHealth to buy the second-largest provider of home healthcare in America. The approval came after UnitedHealth hired Ballard Partners, Pam Bondi's former employer, to lobby on its behalf. "Drain the swamp."
What if there were already some sort of contest where people were able to choose between them, I wonder how that would go

MY LATEST @latimes.com COLUMNA: L.A. never needed the Olympics. With Trump wanting in, it's time to pull out. Share, porfas!
I'm drinking the Bios Crash slurpee I hope it crashes my bios I hope I blue screen
Oh no it’s the male loneliness epidemic
I do not give a fuck about the financial side of Magic the Gathering, but occasionally it results in a headline like this.
are you tired of being brainwashed by the mainstream media?
I will never understand the desire to take one’s shoes off on mass transit. I want more layers between me and the stuff that hundreds of people have touched, not less.

Upon taking a small, informal survey I have learned that I’m the only one I know who noticed the peanut butter in Superman. I don’t know why but my eyes just go right to it every time.
Oh, that’s wonderful. I spent summers riding around the US in a ‘31 Model A Ford as a kid with my parents and their car club. ❤️
Yesterday I went to a coffee shop and the barista smiled and whistled the first few notes of Punkrocker when he saw me. Superman Summer continues to be the best.
I always like to think that no, CA isn’t dumb enough to wind up doing that but then I see people enthusiastically voting against their own interests every time AirBNB or Uber comes up with a new ballot proposition.
ICE agents are getting truly unprecedented access to Medicaid data, granted by CMS with the goal of locating immigrants -- A new agreement viewed by @wired.com gives ICE direct access to a federal database containing sensitive medical and personal data on tens of millions of Americans.
::tourists standing next to a City of West Hollywood sign:: “Yeah we definitely in Beverly Hills.” ::they all look around and confidently nod:: Godspeed brave, if not terribly observant, travelers.
Pretty much. Will I laugh and be on his side when he makes a Twitter joke or runs against Larry Elder? Sure. Will I support him in a Democratic primary? Absolutely the fuck not.
I like to live dangerously and will accept any and all donations of unwanted Bit O Honeys.
We have got to figure out a better system than rolling back everything the other party did every four to eight years.
If you don’t live in California, you might be unaware of all the ICE mayhem. Here’s just part of the @latimes.com front page right now
The right-wing backlash against #Superman this week got me thinking: Has this happened before? That led to the discovery of these headline — from April 1940, when the official newspaper of the SS took umbrage at the comic book hero and ridiculed its creators. My how times change ...
Every American should read this ACLU lawsuit about what is happening in Los Angeles and California. It is the stuff of dystopian nightmares. This is not immigration enforcement. It is positively stuffed with videos and articles documenting racial profiling on a scale unseen since Jim Crow.
Superman Week is going well, I ran into an old friend who I didn’t recognize because she was wearing glasses.
We are about to witness levels of media illiteracy that the human mind cannot even fathom.
NEW from me — FEMA staffers say the response to the Texas floods is horrifyingly slow, and it may be because of DHS Secretary Kristi Noem's recent increased control over how the agency spends money. "If this is how they are going to do a major hurricane response, people are fucked.”
There are very few people staying in MacArthur Park right now, so this does seem like it's just for show. But there's a summer camp at the rec center, one of the few affordable childcare options for LA families. Glad they could make their little propaganda video while traumatizing local kids
It's the fourth anniversary of that time I tweeted the wrong Sisters Of Mercy
