Wow: after 15 years, YouTube has taken down the original 'Rick Roll' video due to a "licensing issue," likely due to the acquisition of Astley's record lable.

The metadata remains, but if you click through it goes to 'video not found':

I was 28 in 2016 and this is an insane characterization of what growing up as a white man in my cohort was like. Demonstrative of how out-of-touch the cultural right is with actual American life www.theredneckintellectual.com/p/right-wing...

They used to call it a stove. A stove! Such an old fashioned word. I brought it back though. I said we’re touching the stove! Biden wouldn’t touch it, he was too sleepy! Sleepy Joe, remember that? Well we’re touching the stove now, putting my hand on it and maybe, quite possibly, my face!

Gifted | Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth put an end to Black History Month and other celebrations of identity. But St. Patrick's Day got a pass, and some are asking why. The questions come from the troops as well as administration critics. www.expressnews.com/news/article...

The attack on DEI shows why liberals should stop arguing about "strategic" use of language forever. DEI stands for three uncontroversial virtues that most every American accepts, and the right still turned it into a vile slur. It doesn't matter what you say - they will poison it because YOU said it.

A Secretary of Defense who knew what he was doing would have read that speech before he gave it and then made sure to coordinate with the White House and NSC before reversing some 80 years of U.S. policy and leaving Europe in the lurch while the biggest war since the 1945 was underway.

I have wondered if the New York Times has been acting as handmaidens of fascism because the paper's leaders find it appealing, but now I'm wondering how many people with prominent positions there are just genuinely stupid.

I think Americans, blessed with relatively stable government for a long time, assume there is someone, some adult, who will step in and make things right before the President does anything REALLY bad.

There’s not.

Corporate leaders who were fine with Trump sadistically imposing mass suffering on vulnerable groups as long as they got their tax cuts deserve every last bit of what this madman is now unleashing on them with these tariffs. Assholes.

They want to ban the teaching of the unpleasant facts of American history because people might conclude injustices in the past that contribute to inequalities in the present should be rectified, instead of their belief, which is that some groups of people are inherently superior to others

Missouri gets a whopping $1.18B in funding for 1,888 projects. Washington University is one of the leading medical research universities in the country. This is going to hurt (and, sadly, we’re a red state)

I have faced fascism before, in this very country. I was one of 120,000 Japanese Americans summarily rounded up and expelled from our homes at gunpoint, all for the crime of looking like the people who bombed Pearl Harbor.

as people wiser than me keep saying, don't assume the fascist machine is well-oiled and incredibly competent! they're a bunch of idiot criminals who have stumbled back into power. it's bad, but the saving grace is that ... they're a bunch of idiot criminals!
