“ABC and CBS are making a serious miscalculation. Their servility to Trump will not earn them peace, only greater pressure.”
That’s the German professional association of journalists, @djv.de, calling on major US media to support their journalists instead of preemptively silencing them.

I don't think Trump is merely a liar. I think he fully lives in a delusional plane of reality.
When someone says almost 2,000 falsehoods in 40 minutes, how is any person supposed to "fact check" him.
One would have to unravel his entire mental infrastructure to get an honest sentence out of him.

I deeply appreciate this examination of the 'Jordan Peterson vs 20 Atheists' video by @codyjohnston.bsky.social in the latest episode of @somemorenews.bsky.social — Especially because I hate this type of useless outrage bait content.

Why is it so hard to find bikini bottoms that are full coverage in the front while still being cheeks out in the back? I have underwear this style, it’s all I wear, but I can never seem to find that in swim bottoms.

In case you’re wondering how companies are taking the new tariffs, we received an email with the subject line of an already in progress chain changed to “Liberation Day Massacre” from one of our customers after seeing their new duty burden. The original subject line was “Reciprocal tariffs April.” 😬

As someone who grew up in poverty, I feel weirdly prepared for economic downturn. Remember:
- Buy non-perishables in bulk
- STOP BUYING INDIVIDUAL SERVINGS
- Know your neighbors, trade within your community!
- Wait for sales/clearance/coupon to stock up
- make it yourself > buying prepackaged [1/2]

Its gonna be fun when shit that folks consider ubiquitous and utterly mundane start disappearing or being priced sky high, like black pepper or sea salt

We wrote about this in thecon.ai: with enterprise deals, employees will be initially highly encouraged to use synthetic text generation machines. But at some point, it'll become required to justify the cost.

We spent two hours cleaning up our absolute disaster of a basement. Two hours productivity = 4 hours of reading time right? Correct ratio?

A few years back, centrist Democrats & the Very Serious People mocked & dismissed the slogan ‘abolish ICE’.
Today’s actions are a reminder of how ICE is a rogue, lawless agency that is easily weaponized by an authoritarian administration & that it very much should be abolished.

Thoughts on boycotts: inflict pain on the corporation. Buying a couple 99 cent ebooks from a self-published author on Amazon is fine. Don’t buy a microwave on it. Purity is never the answer. Restraint though and thoughtfulness is.
