a coworker brought up a tweet in a work meeting today and had to scroll past a promoted post with a racial slur and an ad for some kind of workout powder specifically for white nationalists. everyone on that site has their own reason to stay, but a lot of those reasons are uhhh pretty bad

oh dang, you still post on twitter because you "get engagement there?" that's cool. I still hang out at that nazi bar everyone always talks about from that allegory because their drink specials are pretty good. all my old friends stopped going because of the nazis, but I'm making some new ones

We hadn’t won World War II by May 8th. I know because my family and I were still in an internment camp in Tule Lake, California.

The English word 'much' and its Spanish equivalent 'mucho' are etymologically unrelated.

The current spelling 'marijuana' appears to have been an English invention.

'St. Paddy's Day' is usually preferred over 'St. Patty's Day.'

'Paddy' is the shortened form of the original Irish spelling of 'Patrick,' which is 'Pádraig.'

'Patty' is the shortened form of 'Patricia.'

everyone seeing how when you takeaway the DEI the planes start falling out of the sky
💥 BREAKING: At John Deere's annual shareholders meeting today, shareholders overwhelmingly rejected an anti-DEI proposal brought by the same group that targeted Costco and Apple. An anti-DEI proposal from the NCPPR received less than 1 percent of votes.

Deere shareholders: DEI is in. Bigots are out

i just cannot get over how much the administration’s response to the crash shows a profound disrespect for the lives of the people they are supposed to serve

we have a president with a tenuous grip on small legislative majorities who is out of the gate with a flurry of dramatically unpopular orders and who has just demonstrated his weakness on the international stage. if i were an elected member of his domestic opposition, i might try to draw real blood.

if you're STILL complaining about the left:

1 - the actual left has no institutional support or power
2 - many leftists working on actionable things are occupied trying to keep people the center abandoned alive
3 - are you maybe confusing "all leftists" with a poster who annoyed you one time?

I fully believe that there's a direct line you can draw from South Park popularizing the "oh it's okay to be racist/transphobic/antisemitic if you're targeting everyone equally" school of thought to the current Joe Rogan mindrot hellscape
i think the south park guys should be up against the wall for their crimes against humanity

It’s fun trying to find that line between “I need to remain vigilant of the horrors afoot” and also “oh no my heart is racing and my jaw is making weird creaky sounds and I can taste pennies.”

Hey, friends—

Things are REALLY rough for political cartoonists right now. Their traditional clients are refusing to run their work. New clients can’t afford to pay them. A lot of political cartoonists are subsisting off patreons.

If you share a political cartoon, please credit the cartoonist.

Creativity is like a houseplant, not an endless well. You need to seek out sunlight, water, and nutrients in art, shows, music, experiences, and more to tend to it. And just like plants it has its dormant and active periods and you may not seem improvement for some time.
