don't worry, john roberts says this is a legitimate exercise of presidential power and if we did anything to curb it, we would be robbing the executive of the energy he needs to do his job
Trump rages that Henry Cuellar didn’t pay him back for a pardon by switching parties, blasting Cuellar for a “lack of LOYALTY.”

In other words, Trump admits he was trying to use his pardon power to buy Republicans a House seat.

It's become normal now for high-level political figures to argue that an entire generation was brainwashed through fake videos into mass anti-Israel political mobilization by TikTok. Complete conspiracy thinking, rooted in zero evidence, based on nothing
Hillary Clinton blames TikTok and “totally made up” videos for young people’s views on Israel and Palestine.

She says social media influenced “not just the usual suspects” but also “young Jewish Americans who don’t know the history and don’t understand.”

On “The Necessary Conversation” podcast, Chad’s Trump supporter parents tell him the military should follow Trump’s illegal orders and kill everyone in LA if Trump commanded it — even with him and his sister in the city😳

No one shld lose sight of the fact that the Guard was only in DC as part of an extended political messaging stunt. The shooter is guilty for the attacks/carnage. Donald Trump is responsible for them. This is the collateral damage of Trump abusing his powers as President.

While giving thanks today, make sure you are also celebrating the anniversaries of Pulp’s “Disco 2000,” The Sound of McAlmont & Butler, and Mansun’s “Skin Up Pin Up.”

🚨Big Britpop anniversary alert!🚨

Happy 30th birthday to “Disco 2000” by Pulp. Probably one of the most heavily radio played Britpop singles to this day.

Melody Maker single of the week.

Happy 30th anniversary to the debut album by McAlmont & Butler “The Sound Of…”

Not a studio album as such, but more of a collection of tracks they’d already released as singles/EP’s. By the time it was released the duo had already split up!

Who has a copy?

On this day in 1995 Mansun released the single “Skin Up Pin Up”. It was the first single released after they were signed to a Parlophone subsidiary label.

Who has a copy still?

"a single person of this demographic may have committed a crime, therefore we must punish the entire demographic" is a policy response you may recognize from fascist governments dedicated to ethnic cleansing elsewhere.
It didn’t even take 6 hours.

Losing my mind over many things these days, but mainly a new K-pop song with the lyrics “I’ve got Suede on my vinyl.” I have so many questions.

every single thing hegseth says in public reveals a bottomless pit of insecurity
When you draw a platoon leader like Hegseth, it’s your worst nightmare. You just ride it out until he’s gone and gets replaced by someone who isn’t a complete jackass. Only a fool like Trump would put one of them in charge of the entire defense department.

Underappreciated lesson from 2016: most fake news was run for profit (not ideology) & right-wing fake news thrived because it sold better than left-wing fake news. X takes that to next level with a social media platform designed for right-wing users, intentionally incentivizing right-wing fake news.
Twitter pays people based on engagement (views, retweets, comments, etc). It appears that many MAGA accounts are based abroad and they use AI technology to generate low-effort rage bait.

My guess is that this will get worse as AI tech improves. For instance, fake videos of minorities doing crime.

On this Sunday before Thanksgiving, a quick PSA from Stop Calling Me Frank, Rum Bar Records, and Knyvet:

"Everybody’s going to the Market Basket /
You know why they’re going there’s no need to ask it /
Everybody’s going to the Market Basket /
...At the same time!"

Good luck out there.

Remember that episode of Charmed where Phoebe became an empath? I’ve always kind of felt like Phoebe in that episode and I think this is why the rise of AI has me so despondent. Seeing artists get ignored always bothered me and now we have an entire industry trying to replace human expression.
