Lt. Hicox of the British RAF using his pointer, middle and ring finger to indicate the number '3', a signal we are told indicates to the nazi to whom he is speaking that Lt. Hicox is British.

Never lose an opportunity to post my own Utah Parlimentary map:
This image shows a Wikipedia-style election infobox for the fictional "2036 Utah House of Representatives Election" held on November 4, 2036. The election was for 75 House seats with a 38-seat majority threshold and 76.2% voter turnout. The results are organized into three coalition blocs: Government Coalition (38 seats total): United Utah Party: 22 seats (-6), led by Michelle Quist Stewardship and Community Party: 8 seats (+2), led by Davina Smith West Side Alliance: 5 seats (+4), led by Luz Escamilla Democracy Elevated: 3 seats (+2), led by Derek Kitchen Left Opposition (7 seats total): People's Party of Utah: 7 seats (-1), led by Angie Hillstrom Progress Coalition (17 seats total): Utah Forward Party: 14 seats (+2), led by Ann Milner Community and Development Party: 3 seats (-3), led by Karen Lang Freedom Coalition (13 seats total): Deseret Revival: 5 seats (+1), led by Curtis Bramble Sovereignty and Freedom Movement: 4 seats (-2), led by Phil Lyman Constitution Party: 4 seats (+1), led by Cameron Dransfield The visual representation shows colored dots representing each seat, with Michelle Quist continuing as Speaker of the House. The infobox includes standard Wikipedia navigation elements and notes that it shows only parties that won seats, with complete results available elsewhere.

A google search trends chart comparing the popularity of searches for "Fully Automated Luxury Communism" and "Retvrn" between April 2015 and May 2025. (https://trends.google.com/trends/explore?date=2015-04-17%202025-05-17&geo=US&q=Fully%20Automated%20Luxury%20Communism,Retvrn&hl=en) It shows that both search terms were at 0 (I think the units are percentage? they're not labeled) prior to October 2016. At that time, FALC takes off, rapidly increasing to a peak of 100 in 2017, before trending downward through May 2019. FALC experiences another peak of 91 in July 2019, before again trending downward (though more slowly) to where we are today (stable at around 20). Retvrn doesn't begin to appear on the chart until about January 2022, where it rapidly reaches around 20. There is a small peak in March of 2024 at about 38 before stabilizing at a similar level to FALC of around 20. Overall, a visual appraisal of the trend chart vaguely suggests a long-term slow decline in FALC, with Retvrn emerging as some sort of competitor, though the peaks have simply never been as high.

Has anybody done this yet?
Destiel (supernatural meme). Castiel confesses pleadingly "I love you", to which Dean responds, his face blank "Regarding claims of White Genocide in South Africa, it is a disputed issue. Some point to farm attacks and songs like "Kill the Boer" as evidence of racial targeting, but courts have ruled that the chant should be seen in the context of the historical struggled against Apartheid. Likewise violence against white farmers in South Africa are viewed by some as..." The bottom line of text is cut off, indicating that the diatribe continues for some time.

????????????????
An article from slate, text as follows Matt: This has always been a thing for us. For as long as we’ve been together, I’ve come home, having behaved in what I thought was a highly appropriate manner, and you’ll be sitting there like, Oh my god, what have you done? Elysha: Remember the pig thing? <highlight> Matt: Oh, yeah. One time, my co-worker thought I called his baby a pig … which I did. I think all babies look like pigs—which is a sentiment based on a William Blake poem. When I came home that day, there was a furious message on my voicemail. The thing is, I was right: His baby did look like a pig! So when I spoke to him about his message, I was aggressive and confrontational. Later on, I even wrote a poem called “I Called His Baby a Pig and I Was Right” and passed it around to all my friends.</highlight>

What a fascinating take! I wonder if there's some sort of systematic theory which could account for how a new group of people begins to gain power as an attempt to negotiate a compromise between a group of people, and like, another opposed group of people... an anti-group if you will.
Screenshot from quoted article. It says: "Behind Dumenil’s neoliberal crisis theory is his view that, in effect, <highlighted section> that there are now three classes in captialism: workers, capitalists and managers. And it is the managers who now hold the ‘balance of power’. In the neoliberal period they have taken the big bonuses and supported finance capital against labour </highlighted section>. No change is possible until the managers come over to the side of labour. So we have a political theory of crises rather than an economic one. And it seems to call for class collaboration as a way out of this crisis. I doubt Marx would have agreed."

Apropos of nothing...
A linear regression demonstrating positive correlation between "2024 vote swing [towards trump]" and "percent of people commuting more than 60 minutes by car. It demonstrates that these two factors are strongly correlated, with each increase of 2% of people commuting by car over 60 minutes ("exurbanites") leading to an increase of swing towards Trump by 1.5 points. R=0.3884. That is, while nearly every state swung towards trump somewhat, those with the most exurbanites swung the hardest. Underlying calculation available upon request.

Like, this is an image that someone else posted. Is there a reason that it's wrong or misleading?
A vote tally for final passage of the NDAA from the senate. Several "categories" are called out, including (all Yea votes on final product unless otherwise noted): "Performed post-conference amendment theater condemning ban while voting YEA" (Blumenthal, Durbin, Fetterman, Heinrich, Hinkenlooper, Hirono, Klobuchar, Murphy, Murray, Padilla, Schatz, Smith, Van Hollen, Whitehouse) Ran anti-trans TV ads during senate campaign (Baldwin [voted NAY], Brown) "Pre conference performative amendment while voting YEA" (Kelly) "Attached Ban in SASC" (Manchin) "Ranking SASC member oversaw ban in conference product" (Reed) "YEA vote to advance ban out of SASC & agreed to ban in conference product" (Blumenthal, Duckworth, Gillibrand, Hirono, Kaine, Kelly, King, Manchin, Peters, Rosen, Shaheen) The only NAYS were: Baldwin, Booker, Kim, Markey, Merkley, Sanders, Schiff, Stabenow, Warren, Welch, Wyden (Democrats), and Braun, Lee, Paul (Republicans)

You got it, boss
The classic "we should improve society somewhat" meme. From the KnowYourMeme Description: The comic features a man trying to own others by pointing out their hypocrisy when they argue for improving society. He first mocks a person tweeting about how Apple doesn't pay livable wages for Chinese workers because the person is tweeting from an iPhone. He then mocks an early-20th century car owner for arguing cars should have seatbelts. He then appears in the last panel mocking a medieval peasant for wanting to "improve society somewhat" (shown below).

New block rec:

The desire to troll is high with this one. She seems extremely willing to fly of the handle in amusing ways, but, in line with best practices, I'm alas just blocking.
A screenshot of text. It says "As the title says. I'm willing to bet I get banned sometime within the next 24 hours lol. I'm Mary Jaden Bruce Dyer (@zarajaide.bsky.social) I initially started the profile to be "undercover" as an "authentic" biotrans woman, just to see how that went over. My persona was going to be that of a very moderate, reasonable biotrans (uwu) person who tried to get radical activists to question their tactics by asking them questions such as "HOW is this person an Nazi? Can you give examples or are you just throwing around words?" But, well, I'm not very good at remaining cool in the face of idiots so I kid you not, the facade crumbled within about ten minutes. Honestly closer to five minutes 😆 Now, since most of the people I interacted with yesterday blocked me, I've just taken to posing examples of trans hypocrisy. You ladies should consider joining. It needs more terf voices. The weirdos over there are wayyyyyy too comfy."

With appropriate caveats:

Average driving commute time was highly predictive of swing towards Trump in the 2024 election.
A scatterplot showing the correlation between 2024 vote swing (y-axis) and percent of people commuting more than 60-minutes by car (x-axis). It shows a strong correlation, with higher commute percentages indicating higher vote swing. A cluster around +8 trump and 8% commute includes all the big blue states (NY, Cali, MA, NJ), as well as TX and FL. A regression line is displayed on the graph as well, showing the correlation with an R-Squared of 0.3884
