#leftish Moved to Chicago because of Nelson Algren. I've been a skinhead (not the nazi skinheads, the original kids-Flesheaters, X, Bad Religion, MDC), a writer, a designer. I've been very poor, on Welfare, then middle class, now on SSDI
He’s a Pagan god at best.
He’s not omniscient nor omnipresent and definitely not infallible, as the Judeo-Christian and Allah are. He can’t form complete sentences let alone walk on water.

I wish God existed so we could watch Him smack down these mofos
Next thing, they’ll be offering up their young children to him and his wealthy friends…

Circus Peanuts are one of my favorites but Bit O’Honey—what the hell is that?
In the spirit of @crushbort.bsky.social post about antagonizing Trick or Treaters with bad candy, what's your bottom of the barrel candy, the one that fills you with rage and disappointment in equal measure?

For me it's Circus Peanuts. Styrofoam peanuts sprayed a sickly shade of orange isn't candy

It’s not winning. Winning requires actual competition. This is just nepotism.
Well look who finally got a job,

without any help from oh wait.
The company brought Junior in right after the election as part owner. They just won the largest drone motor contract awarded by the Pentagon.

By calling peaceful protesters "terrorists" Mike Johnson is putting our lives in danger. Is it possible to organize a class action law suit for defamation?

Last night I thoroughly enjoyed”The Night They Robbed Big Bertha’s”

Ah the seventies, when you could still make low budget B movies about whorehouses that were funny and freeing.

How about “Make convicted felons serve their time?”
Sir that is no way to talk to the Supreme Court

Let’s set fascism to p. Antifa is defined as ~p. If you are against Antifa, that’s ~(~p). ~(~p) = p. So Trump, by logic, has just admitted he is a fascist.

But you don’t need logic; there’s more than enough prima facie evidence.
I just spent a week in Portland. The city was busy with tourists and locals enjoying late summer. A prosperous downtown. Factually, there is no observable evidence of a city needing military intervention. A reminder that this is not normal. Please pay attention.

President Trump said Saturday he will send troops to Portland, "authorizing Full Force, if necessary" to handle "domestic terrorists" as he expands his controversial deployments to more U.S. cities.

"Republican lawmakers in Oklahoma introduced legislation this week that would require every public university in the state to construct 'a Charlie Kirk Memorial Plaza', with a statue of the him and a sign calling him a 'modern civil rights leader'..."

Schools would be required to build memorial plaza and describe slain activist as civil rights leader or face fines

This is a solution to right wing indoctrination. Sponsor paid studies of psylocibin at state universities in red states.

Brilliant observation, Hedy.
When JD Vance tells the world that Kirk was a "critical part if a political movement", he is saying Kirk was essential to grooming students to accept our Authoritarian dictatorship, Christian Nationalism & the violent overthrow of democracy

Now that America is a plutocracy, billionaires are dictating what we can and can’t say. So much for free speech.

He might be a mole or a double agent. Exactly what are his liberal credentials?
New rule: Democratic leadership should give their base better candidates than duds like John Fetterman.
Fetterman on sending the National Guard to Chicago: "All I'm saying that it's like, when 600 people are killed in Chicago once every year, roughly, I think it's entirely appropriate."

I only watch videos with actual humans talking. Also there seem to be only five voices that are used over and over narrate AI. Once you recognize these you can avoid them.

Critics say that "slop" videos made with generative AI are often repetitive or useless. But they get millions of views — and platforms are grappling with what to do about them.
'AI slop' videos may be annoying, but they're racking up views — and ad money

Yes it’s a Marxist plot. Eva would create hundreds of thousand jobs. The Heartland Institute wants to turn America into Saudi Arabia where the poor starve and the rich can have slaves. Give me a Marxist plot any day.
Day Two of Reform conference, and we're getting the good stuff. At the Heartland Institute's fringe "Is Climate Realism Inevitable", we've learned that electric cars are part of a Marxist plot to control humanity, and heard calls for the abolition of the BBC.

This is a common conservative trope: Giving money to poor people isn't enough, we need to focus on "cultural values" like hard work and marriage.

The problem is that red states have been doing that for decades and it doesn't work! Telling people that jobs are good doesn't help if there's no jobs.

Miller’s pronouns (he, him, himmler)😝
2025, reaction of everyone (including nazis) to calling White Stephen Miller "Himmler" 👉

💯% stuff like 'I see it,' 'yeah, that's what I call him, too,' 'reminds me more of Goebbels,' 'he's worse than Himmler and that's actually the thesis of my Ph.D. dissertation,' 'who's Himmler?'

That’s about 45 million domestic extremists, so watch your mouth Stevie
Stephen Miller on FOX: “The Democrat Party is not a political party. It is a domestic extremist organization."

That, I think, will be next. 🫠
