The amount of after-the-fact consent manufacturing, shameless regime stenography, and gutless both-sidesing on every single media outlet right now is genuinely worse than 2001-2002. Absolutely pathetic. We have no journalists. We have no opposition party.

![A Bluesky user based in Venezuela posted 'I live near a military air base and five earth-shaking explosions were just heart.'
User @thenordic.bsky.social (a random asshole) replied 'was it too hard for you to to [sic] add a link?' along with a link to an AP piece.

Speaking as Gen-X, while I am capable of all of this things, I haven’t needed to do any of them this millennium. Kids these days can’t thatch a roof or use a rock to shape a stone axe either, but time marches forward regardless.
It's 2026.
Things many American school kids probably don't know how to do:
* Dial a rotary telephone
* Tell time from an analog clock
* Read or write cursive
* Decipher Roman numerals
* Navigate with a paper map or use a compass
* Balance a checkbook
(Please add more below)

You can't be a real country unless you have a beer and an airline - it helps if you have some kind of football team, or some nuclear weapons, but in the very least you need a beer.

Starts out as a fairly standard biblical tale, then about 3 minutes in just takes a sharp turn sideways into Tromaville level gore for the next 10 minutes. I like that it at no point attempts to explain itself.

If horrible things are permissible because a bill was passed then it’s an indictment of liberal democracy rather than a point in its favor.
She helped pass a bill—which is 100% part of liberalism. Maybe you don’t like the bill. Maybe the bill will hurt some people and have bad outcomes. But that’s part of liberal democracy.

I was really hoping that they just showed Trump an AI video of it happening and told him the CIA did it instead of the CIA actually doing it.
This is an act of war and illegal under both US and international law, let’s just be clear about that:
