This is stunning. Listen to this in Philadelphia.

Thousands singing “Hey-Oh, we won’t be silent while our friends are gunned down.”

Really listen to it.

Under a hundred years ago an Austrian mediocrity needed revenge coz an art school thought he'd be better suited to a different career, now untalented mediocrities need revenge because the cool kids don't laugh at their jokes. That's why we have to have fascism now.

At Cabaret yesterday, Cliff said his line “…if you’re not against all this then you’re for it. Or you might as well be”. The audience interrupted the scene to applaud that line so strongly it stopped the show. Doing a show about the onset of fascism right now is. . . chilling.

This puritanical pixie thinks Jesus's Sermon on the Mount was radical ideology.

"Blessed are the merciful." Matthew 5:7

Christian Nationalists are the least likely Americans to pay attention to Jesus. Even atheists are more likely to follow his teachings, if only inadvertently.

As this is "Day Two," I'm going to check to see if there are no longer taxes on tips, the border has been sealed, and the war in Ukraine is over. 👀

People talking about "conjuring" images with AI like they're fucking wizards. Come on man you're typing in some words and pouring a gallon of water into the computer's thirsty mouth to make it spit out a picture cobbled together from other people's work

Be kind, listen, give the benefit of doubt, but block anyone who is a dick to you or anyone you know.

Pre-emptively block bigots.

Try to use Alt-text when you can.

Share good news.

Don't take shit off fools (It only encourages them, and they're not looking to change).
