Some assholes want to be quote-dunked to collect victim sympathy and for a humiliation fetish. Don't show your feet for free.
Please please please do not forget the hard posting safety lessons from Twitter.

Don't quote dunk.
Screenshot.
Don't give your platform to assholes.

I actually think it's time to bring back the approach of curated lists and webrings from the early web again. Huge opportunity space for hand curation of information
In an age where AI slop websites have made entire categories of information difficult to find, what we need is Yahoo (or Dmoz): a human-curated list of reliable websites, organized by topic.

As a vet, I sincerely do not give a single fuck about the troops.

They have every opportunity and right to declare conscientious objector status, to disobey orders that are not in accordance with their oath to the constitution. Every one that goes into Venezuela chose to do so.

If I can give up Eurovision y'all can give up the sporting events, let's do this
The world must boycott the World Cup and the Olympics.

It is both the only moral choice and will actually get the attention of these dead-eyed clout demons.

Todo lo que es generado con "Inteligencia Artificial" es la nueva propaganda y estética del fascismo y no hay y nunca hubo manera de reivindicarlo.

No hay reapropiación simbólica del producto de un centro de datos que contamina y mata a todo a su alrededor.

I don’t really know what to say. I’m just horrified by the idiotic evil.

The Trans News Network is one of the best examples of powerful and essential independent journalism I've seen in a while (and it's workers-run!), please support their fundraising and if you can't donate, share and repost and tell people why they work is crucial!
We have just a bit over $1500 left until we meet our *entire* winter fundraising goal! Shares and donations of any size help folks, thank you all so much for your continued support!

Cancel the LA Olympics, scrap the World Cup, the United States cannot be a trusted part of the international community so long as the White House operates this violently and with impunity.

Sharing breaking news?

✅Check timestamps. RTing old info adds to the fog.
✅ Check original sourcing. Trusting the person who shared it isn’t enough.
✅ Check image credits.
✅ Check your impulses.
🛑 Don’t share unsourced, undated images/video/graphics.

This feels like a culmination of several deep pathologies: congressional passivity, executive aggrandizement, national security exceptionalism, politics as theater, war as theater.

Jesus this is so evil and horrific. I know things are early and developing, but do we know what can be done to support the people in Venezuela? Mutual aid, organizations on the ground, etc?

Honestly this feels like something the world should've started signaling they'd do, like... immediately. Especially with the torturing of immigrants and tourists which will only get insanely worse during these international events.

Also, it would be a big economic blow to the US, an easy sanction.

Now that the United States is attacking Venezuela, if US Americans do not overthrow their government, then they support its overthrow of the Venezuelan government. I agreed with this standard when US commentators applied it to Russia, and I agree with it now too.
