When I wade back into the cesspool of twitter for sports stuff I always get struck by how dumb the discourse is.

Who, it must be said, are owned entirely by the British monarchy.
the turkey 'pardon' implies that turkeys have, by virtue of their very existence, committed a sin worthy of capital punishment. this is of course theological nonsense because there are no intrinsically evil birds, except for swans.

How the hell did I get back on Twitter? Damn it.

I’ve noticed that a lot of people on TikTok don’t know what a butterfly effect is and will just like call an homage a butterfly effect. The example I saw was Richard Pryor in the toy was referenced by Donald glover in community who then inspired Miles Morales.

I keep going back to twitter because it has the sports stuff I use to follow but I can’t in good conscious go back.

i am no longer up for debating whether palestinians deserve to live. the answer is an emphatic yes, palestinians deserve to live with dignity and freedom. nothing will ever justify a genocide. killing more than 7,000 civilians who belong to a distinct ethnic group in less than a month is a genocide.

The number of Gentiles who actually give a shit about antisemitism toward American Jews, and the ones who are constantly talking about supporting Israel, are two circles that have never once overlapped
A Moms for Liberty chair who previously fought a library for having an adaption of Anne Frank’s diary recently promoted her organization on an antisemitic network that warns viewers about “seditious Jews,” “Jewish tyrants,” and how Jewish people “have forsaken God.”

It feels uncomfortable to say I’m “anti-Zionist” even though I am. I’m not Jewish and it’s been so interspersed rhetorically with antisemitic that I can’t disconnect them.

Voting for Biden is the absolute the least you can do with probably the biggest impact. You can also organize for change on the local and state level.

I’m pretty tired of leftists who are comfortable enough sacrificing the poor and marginalized for their non votes

I get why some on the left desperately seek a Biden alternative. but there's a reason why the ppl *most* excited about West, RFK Jr., & a potential "No Labels" Manchin run are GOP donors...

From a doc I just got sent from a vendor. This kind of shit makes me very angry. The judgmental weirdness about benzo prescriptions drive me nuts. I can’t imagine being a person who fights to keep drugs that help people out of their hands.

.@prisonculture.bsky.social and I shared some thoughts about "peace" and apartheid alongside an excerpt from Let This Radicalize You in @truthout.bsky.social today.
What Preceded This Bloodshed in Gaza Was Not “Peace” — It Was Apartheid
Israel’s plan to treat Palestinians in Gaza as “human animals” and starve them reflects the conditions of apartheid.

If you are against the murder of innocents, you should be against what the Israeli military is currently doing and has done for decades. You’re a hypocrite otherwise.

Why don’t people weep for Palestinian innocents as much as they do Israeli?

I had to end a friendship with someone I’ve known since my political days in college. She’s an RFK supporter and truly believes that Biden is worse than Trump. She think she’s a leftist.

I understand if you’re wary of getting war coverage from cable news, but Ali Velshi and Ayman Mohyeldin have been at the desk on MSNBC all morning and the coverage has been remarkable, nuanced and really informative.

I recommend it.
