Since Donald Trump is freaking out about Bruce Springsteen calling this the most corrupt, incompetent and treasonous administration, it would be a shame if this video was shared even more widely...

When I say you don’t have to worry about microplastics in your brain I mean that there is much stronger evidence that you should be worrying about other things that you don’t ever think about, like the draining of peatlands for agriculture, and things that you think about all the time, like fascism.

Something is fundamentally wrong with America when millions of dollars can’t buy you a Wisconsin Supreme Court seat, the respect of your children, the silence of your baby mammas, or a functional penis implant.

Although can we talk about what a masterpiece of graphic design the Greenlandic flag is for a quick second?

It is substack’s business model to platform and monetize racist, antisemitic and anti trans writers. It doesn’t just “have” Nazis. Nazis are essential to their failing business model.
Every dollar that goes to substack also goes to Nazis.

Wondering what the Aotearoa equivalent of this would be.
Also, ads like this is one of the commercial reasons our banks are dumping farms and coal mines. They want to keep their profitable urban household mortgage customers.
