We've had it, with empty useless "thoughts and prayers". They don't mean anything.
i know i shouldn’t be surprised at the speed with which america’s news outlets have pivoted to stenographers and propagators of trumpism but it’s still startling to see stuff like this
Then there is the backup nag, I prefer to backup locally and I can't find any way to turn it off.
I find the idea of logging into a company's servers to access my operating system so fucking abhorrent. I returned a razer mouse because it required an account to use... A mouse... Let alone the whole fucking computer. They can eat a bag of dicks
Had "let's finish setting up your PC!" again today. Tried to trick me into an MS account yet again. Where you have to click "Back", which doesn't go back, it goes to a new page that tries to trick you again, but has a Skip option. Completely evil from a design perspective, let alone user respect.
How did Rudy Guiliani fracture vertebrate when he’s a spineless piece of shit?
Worth the watch I'm gonna have to check it out. Absolutely a direct correlation.

Here’s where and when protests against President Donald Trump and billionaire-influence over politics are expected to take place on Monday, organized by the AFL-CIO and dozens of partner organizations.
Today's a good day to learn Colbert found a new job. Hope it's a good one for everybody! #HappyLaborDay
In solidarity with the Global Sumud Flotilla which launches this week in a bid to break the Israeli naval blockade and deliver humanitarian aid to Gaza, I've recorded a new song for Palestine www.youtube.com/watch?v=1axj...
Basically their whole value system is a bed of lies, a thin veneer, a facade, shallow machismo w/o substance, a complete lack of principles wrapped in a muscle top woven from threads of immorality. They know they are living a lie but they seek solace in others who propound the same lies. 💪🏼🙄🫠
These kind of Americans turned cognitive dissonance into a life style - they can comfortably hold thousands of opposing convictions and thoughts at the same time.
It’s because they’re narcissistic delusional hypocrites. Not much more than that.
Senator @CoryBooker, workers can’t win fair wages or healthcare when their votes are silenced. Project REDMAP rigged the maps in 2010. To honor labor, we must restore majority rule. Ban gerrymandering.
Honey, please tell me you have a better argument than guessing where I get my news: The Guardian Talking Points Memo The Economist Mother Jones National Public Radio Chicago Sun-Times The Atlantic
Being 100% against republican fascism does not give Democrats a free pass to do a shitty job because the alternative is worse.
We are losing everything they fought for thanks to the weakness of the democratic party over the lat 8 - 10 years. Labor Day will be removed from the history books also.

I desperately want to email this to a certain journalist
Because I know actual human artists whose work was appropriated without consent to train these "AI" models (as of course mine was, repeatedly, for LLMs), and using an "AI" to generate pictures is like kicking them in the teeth and then laughing at them whilst they bleed
Anything except gun control.
One of the victories of the "AI" industry is that the use of the word "intelligence" for their product has led to people conflating a massive appropriation of intellectual property for an database sorted and outputted with algorithms, with what actually happens in human brain, one artwork at a time.
Look how close this sign is.

We did have passenger trains, even in rural states like Arkansas. All but gone now. This is 1946 vs 2025.
My grandparents got the hell out of Eastern Europe because they were sick of pogroms. Now we have our own! Thank you, ICE!
Rudy Giuliani was busy nursing orphaned bald eagles back to health, when he was struck by a car that hated America and it's freedoms
The problem isn’t refugees on boats. The problem is oligarchs hoarding obscene amounts of wealth while most people fight to stay afloat. Wages aren't tied to inflation, so the working class keeps falling behind no matter how hard they work.
YES I YELLED AT THE SCREEN WHEN THIS HAPPENED
Wasn't Dag Hammarskjöld assassinated?
5 countries have a powerful veto over what the UN can and can't do.
" The United Nations exists precisely to ensure that no nation, however powerful, can silence another. ” — Dag Hammarskjöld UN Secretary-General 1953-1961
LOLZ why Giuliani had to throw a fake superhero story of him saving a domestic violence victim that had to get debunked into his account of his accident! Can’t even get hit by a car sympathetically.
Sorry, what’s the “tension”?
Don't look away 😔 this isn't the American 🇺🇸 way 👉🏼it's sadistic psychopathic Hatemeister Steven Millers wet dream of Amerikkka👿👇🏼
Just btw, how do you fracture "a vertebrae"? "Vertebrae" is plural. One of them is "a vertebra."
Not sure why everyone is doubting Giuliani’s spokesman’s story it sounds totally plausible and not suspicious at all
BREAKING: The government has held an emergency meeting to see how it can avoid acknowledging that the 500-member International Association of Genocide Scholars has declared there is a genocide in Gaza 👀
Dragon House in York was defaced with racist graffiti last week, targeting a family who’ve been part of their community for over ten years. One window cleaner from Crystal Clean Services stepped up to clear the abuse.
J.B. Pritzker is 100% right. Please listen to him, pay attention, and join us in speaking out against authoritarianism and to protect free and fair elections.
www.tiktok.com/t/ZT6GvjPcr/ How in the HELL does any government lawfully deport 600 unaccompanied minors? Who does that? Who the fuck are we? What are we? What have we become?
All of them.
Yeah, we kept the black kitten. It wasn't the plan! We had a home for him and everything! But plans fall through sometimes, and also, cuteness will not be denied. He's ours now.
NEW: A week or so ago, one federal agent kept popping up in videos from Trump's violent DC crackdown—so @jsweetli.bsky.social and I investigated. Turns out he's a 26-year-old US Parks Police officer, a lesser known law enforcement unit currently championed by Interior Sec. Doug Burnum. Our report:
Depersonalization- it is easier to distance yourself from responsibility if you don't personally see the outcome.
Yep those trains needed engineers to drive them.
Shoah has this scene of a train engineer. From the engine he looks back at the cattle cars he remembers hauling Such an ambiguous bit. That guy lived for decades after making engines go but once for the Holocaust. he'd been young. Felt bad for doing it, but did it. Then had to live with it.
They are the same kind of people who told Jews on their way "to the showers" their belongings would be waiting for them when they came back. That kind of people.
I've been confused about this for a while myself, although charge stations at truck stops are becoming more of a thing, which makes sense because the amenities are already there
WELKER: Do you have 100% confidence in Secretary Kennedy? LANKFORD: I believe he's who the president picked. He's challenging some of the assumption - what is it about autism? He seems to be following the science WELKER: The science has debunked links between autism & vaccines for more than 20 yrs
If we don’t stand up for these victims, who will ?
There’s a special place in hell for morons who get millions of people killed.
Troops in the streets and he thinks he’s going to get a Nobel, peace begins at home
A leading vaccine expert warns of the Trump Administration’s effort to limit COVID shots at pharmacies, which would be “disastrous” for the American public.
Because he's fucked up bad and the press is in his pocket. Next question?
"The lunatics are running the asylum."
Google developer #1: "That's it. Our search engine is simple, efficient, and reliable. It's perfect. We're done." Google developer #2, presumably: "But wouldn't it be *more* perfect if the first search result was always a robot who mansplained your search results to you incorrectly?"
DOL is trying to take away minimum wage and overtime from millions of workers. Just thought I’d mention that.
Lionel Barber, "Coming out of the ECHR isn't going to solve the problem" "What they have to do is process these applications much faster" "And they should consider other European countries and put them to work"
Schools investing so much energy into creating safe communities for everyone to prosper and develop and then they have to combat parents who condone this sort of outrageous behaviour. Makes you weep.
Hey, it's in the great tradition of Nancy Reagan, though I don't know if she was balling her guy.
“‘Nakba All Over Again': West Bank Palestinians Still Displaced More Than 6 Months After Israel Forced Them to Flee” The Israeli operation in Jenin, Tulkarm, and other cities, has displaced more than 40,000 people – the largest mass displacement of Palestinians in the West Bank in decades.
One of the weirdest statements you will ever read.

RFK Jr: “If you’ve ever compared an unvaccinated kid to a vaccinated kid… you see the bright eyes, the engagement, the social interactions, the curiosity. And you compare them to the child who even had one or two vaccines, and they’re completely different.“ This man is an existential threat.
I mean this country has killed enough Kennedys, I guess it’s only fair one of them tries to return the favor
"Everyday People" by Sly & The Family Stone is a powerful anthem of unity, highlighting that despite differences, all people are equal and should coexist peacefully. Its messages challenged prejudice and celebrated inclusivity, as the band was one of the first major integrated rock groups.
Resistance is NOT futile.
I wonder what makes this one special? 🤔
Opening a Native American restaurant so I can say my cuisine is 100% immigrant-free and own the libs.
What kind of shit human do you have to be to be an ICE or HSA agent at this point?
It's not mental illness or video games. It's the guns.

When you cut the social safety nets, you can expect people to fall and land on the streets.
The right to a family life is the main target of the Right. This is the basis of the semi slave labour in Singapore and Dubai. " You can work here but you may not marry or have a family". The Labour Party are a disgrace.
Article 8 provides for privacy as well… consider what the loss of that might mean… forced outing of trans folk, free-rein on facial recognition, potential loss of privacy of health data, state surveillance of your internet usage… need to recognise the authoritarian streak in this government
This article 8 thing is basically used when an asylum seeker has children and/or partner legally living in the UK. So the question is, where exactly do they want such a family to live?
Neve vote labour again - NVLA. This “Labour Party” are a bunch of right wing charlatans and liars.
Agree, point im trying to make is the idea that us pulling out of this agreement and it just being about immigrants is naive at best, dangerous at worst. MPs making it as if its a small tweak is just for clicks . These allow us our "democracy" while curbing state interference on our lives.
Bridget Phillipson, "Labour believes there needs to be reform to the ECHR" Trevor Philips, "You want to see changes in the ECHR?" Bridget Phillipson, "Home Secretary Yvette Cooper is looking at Article 8 Provisions to see if they need updating" *Article 8: Right for private and family life*
Whatever this political party is it most definitely is not Labour! I’m utterly ashamed of what these charlatans have turned it into.
