America has deindustrialized so much they can't even manufacture consent
I still can't believe they're trying to make a war happen out of thin air. Not just their abrogation of Congress's role in formally declaring a war -- that's been a slippery slope for decades -- but their total unwillingness even to go through the motions of drumming up public support.

I assure you, it is quite easy to find conservative-leaning lawyers who aren't absolute freaks with deeply-held views so creepy most people don't even know such views exist. But this is who they nominate instead.
Here's Trump judicial nominee Justin Olson today, admitting than in 2015, he gave a sermon in which he said that “marriage was not intended for all people,” including “our handicapped friends or our persons with physical disabilities that might prevent the robust marriage that we’re called to.”

As somebody who has probably, over the last 30 years, spent something over 20,000 hours analyzing jobs data, this is the single most gonzo employment graph I have ever seen in my life. The only thing that comes close is the employment data in March/April 2020.

What gets me about executives at movie/videogame studios being taken aback at consumer backlash to AI is that they seem genuinely surprised that we like the human beings that make the things that we like

very interesting that the guy who wrote the “i can’t find a job because i’m white” piece zeroed in on me as responsible for the negative response on bluesky, despite the fact that i wrote a single post about the piece well after the discourse had started.
he's now on substack complaining about mccarthyism on bluesky and blaming, of course, Jamelle

The Bundy occupation at Malheur in early 2016 (and the lack of consequences they faced for it) was a sign of what was to come. Right wing white anti-government vigilantes cast as “patriots.”
NEW: Tina Peters is rejecting a J6er's call to storm a Colorado prison and free her.
Peters is distancing herself from the jailbreak scheme and violent actions after allies and her attorney talked about using force or violence to free her and punish those keeping her in prison.

My mother had this revelation in the middle of Christmas dinner when she was in her 50s.
I think I was about 20 before I realized the lady in I Saw Mommy Kissing Santa Claus was kissing the dad. Before that I always just thought it was about a lady who really wanted to fuck Santa Claus, and who could blame her?
