As someone who was raised very catholic, I think it’s badass that Jewish people don’t believe in a heaven or hell. I’ve always thought the same about atheists too. when they’re good people it’s not about receiving some reward later on

Ah, secret dark-money political messaging. Surely THAT's what the millions of democrat voters that constantly demand an overturning of Citizens United will respond to!

i definitely do feel morally superior to people who use AI but i also just dont understand anyone who doesn't have like a visceral disgust reaction to stuff that is detectably made using it. it hurts me to look at. as soon as i realize it's AI I shoo it away as fast as I can like it's a bug

If there's one episode of TV I wish I could force everyone to watch and internalize, it's the 30 Rock where Liz, who has always seen herself as a bullied nerd underdog, finds out she's actually been hated all her life because she's mean.

i feel like the general conception of masculinity has had all the expertise removed from it. there used to be a “having skills and being good at things” element that’s been hollowed out and replaced with racism etc

There’s a woman in my building who might have the purest aura of anyone I’ve met. She literally sounds like a Disney princess and not in a fake way, like authentic and extremely kind. Lowkey it makes my day whenever I run into her.

CBS canceled Colbert’s show just THREE DAYS after Colbert called out CBS parent company Paramount for its $16M settlement with Trump – a deal that looks like bribery. America deserves to know if his show was canceled for political reasons. Watch and share his message.

Colbert will be all right, maybe even better off. The world's his oyster and I'm sure MSNBC and Netflix will come calling. He could stand up the biggest late night YouTube channel in days. But they are just torching the Late Show, an institution, solely to appease a dictator. And that fucking sucks.

🚨NEW: When ICE raided a Californian farm yesterday, they snatched & disappeared a disabled US veteran who was in his car. They smashed his window, peppered sprayed him & dragged him to the floor. Listen to his wife & sister here, distraught. No-one will tell them where he is. (🎥 ABC 7 News)

I wasn’t arguing that. My heart breaks for the Palestinian people, what they have been through and especially now. I’m not lying when I say some of the best people I’ve met in the world are Palestinian and also Israeli. I can’t sit by and let either be dehumanized, so that’s where I’m coming from

They could choose not to serve and go to jail and some do, but again these are teenagers-who have lived with a lifetime of heavy propaganda having to make these decisions. I don’t see people keeping this same energy for US soldiers who all VOLUNTARILY serve. Prob bc people actually know them
Carrie (@carrle.bsky.social) reply parent
Plenty are not silent and are protesting and even getting arrested or put on house arrest for protesting. Most of those who are conscripted into the IDF have to go in as teenagers right out of high school, and most serve on bases like in Tel Aviv where they do admin jobs and go home on weekends

This kind of stuff makes me even more furious with the "politicians shouldn't have to do stuff" people. The Home Depot guy has more of a responsibility to their community than anyone that is supposed to to represent them

The way someone will say “Israelis” not differentiating between civilians and their government, meanwhile they’re posting it from the US or some other country currently benefitting from western imperialism. Hypocrisy at its finest

If the GOP reconciliation bill passes, ICE gets through FY2029: - $45 billion for detention, on top of the current annual budget of $3.4 billion - $14.4 billion for transportation and removal, on top of the current annual budget of $750 million - $8 billion for hiring/retention - Billions more.

Throughout the Russia-Ukraine conflict I haven’t seen people speaking about Russian civilians like that, same for themselves being American / British or whatever and our govts being equally as evil. Literally every time I’m on here or twitter I see it. Very weird
Carrie (@carrle.bsky.social)
I know this is an unpopular opinion but I find it pretty fucked how on the left it’s so accepted to dehumanize and paint all Israelis with a broad stroke brush. I’m not talking about criticizing their government or specific people or groups within that society, of course that makes sense

ICE is essentially disappearing people. “The Ice official told me they are under no obligation to tell the family or the attorneys of the detainees that they have been apprehended, or that they’ve been moved to another state, to another facility, or that they’ve been deported.”

Not an original point but worth saying again - there is not a single element in this picture that identifies any of these folks as law enforcement agents. No badges, no uniforms, no vests. Out of context it just looks like a bunch of random guys are kidnapping a mayoral candidate.

This ICE agent tells an immigration attorney of her three clients: "I'm not picky so I'm giving you the options cause I have to take one. If not I'll take all." He is quite literally saying that ICE is simply deporting people at random to meet a quota. www.instagram.com/reel/DKzbcQe...

The DNC should have welcomed Hogg’s ideas. The DNC has been failing us for years. So at least give someone else a voice. I say this as a 53-year-old woman who has always votes for democrats but desperately want change. The old guard has failed us. I 100% support primary challenges.

The most striking thing about the LA protests is how many people just dropped everything to show up and yell at federal agents. There are people in suits, and carrying dogs, and wearing flip flops or bike helmets. These are not people who planned to do this today. But there they are.
