New music from @themountaingoats.bsky.social means it’s a perfect day to support indie record stores! Just picked this gem up from @electricfetusmpls.bsky.social.

Not sure the metaphors can get much more obvious, folks.
It looks even worse by video 😢

BREAKING: Disney+ is to replace the two-season run of Andor with a recut version that runs for only five minutes, and is just Mon Mothma apologising profusely to Darth Vader for any inconvenience, and letting him have whatever he wants.

Yeah, not sure we should call the 6-3 SCOTUS majority “conservative” if all they’re gonna do is roll over for a dictator and shred the constitution. What, exactly, are they conserving? Disgusting.

The capitulation we’re seeing from companies and institutions is intended as a short term fix for a short term problem, i.e. Trump. But the more they do it, the longer term the problem becomes, even When It Happens. Everyone can see you, assholes.

I’m sure we’ll be hearing from all those people who voted for Trump for purely economic reasons any moment now.

Several outlets seem insistent that I should know or care or have an opinion about something called the Gen Z Stare and I would like to politely opt out. It sounds extremely made up, let’s just move on.

If this is really the off-ramp masses of Trump supporters take to exit the cult, great, I’m glad, welcome back to reality and please get some therapy.

But I’ll never ever understand why they cruised past the last ten years of off-ramps.

I think what’s hardest about these moments where we think sanity must at last prevail, Trump has finally gone too far, the shit has well and truly hit the fan, is that they’ve been coming almost non-stop for nearly ten years.

I don’t know who the showrunner is on 2025 and I know we’re not that far into the season, but the writing feels really heavy-handed and honestly barely plausible so far
Allegory alert!

It’s not a good time for any of this dumbshittery but wow is it reeeaally not the time for this specific dumbshittery.
Well, fuck

well it has certainly been an amusing prank to let the worst people alive take over the american government for a few weeks, but I think it's probably gone on long enough

Trump is gutting the civil service so that when the courts tell him to stop doing illegal things he can instruct his lackeys to ignore the courts and do illegal things anyway. What then? It’s leading to a constitutional crisis the likes of which we’ve never seen. Because he wants to be king.

I’ve kind of been assuming the cause is “World’s Richest Man Seeks Further Enrichment At Expense Of World”

Spoiler: it’ll never be enough
"The cause of Musk’s crusade remained unclear."
This seems like a crucial and underappreciated point here. Not only is DOGE not transparent in the conventional sense. They have never explained what their objectives are. This is problematic from an accountability standpoint.

It’s important to remember, today and every day, that Donald Trump is absolutely full of shit.

Maybe we could do a sort of lottery where if you guess the country Trump starts a needless and destructive fight with next you get a free carton of eggs, so in a WAY, he’s totally doing the thing they all said they cared about.

I know TikTok is playing Trump like a fiddle here and I guess it’s smart strategically. But it feels so, so gross.

Supremely uninterested in anything that attempts to rationalize whatever crazy thing the crazy person we somehow elected is spewing from his dumb, crazy mouth. He’s saying crazy shit because he’s crazy. His craziness weakens and endangers us and others. That’s the story.
