This is not my beautiful house. This is not my beautiful wife. How did I get here?
Ok, I know this is supposed to be making fun of people who use ai art, but actual art thieves who steal physical paintings are waaaay more respectable and cool. Who doesn't love a good heist?
you don't understand. as someone who isn't inherently good at art, stealing paintings from the museum is the *only* way i'm able to express myself creatively. i wouldn't be able to paint beautiful portraits. but by breaking into a museum and stealing the paintings, now i am

as a kid growing up right-wing i regularly heard people express their desire for "a government so small I can drown it in the bathtub". imagine my surprise growing up to realize i was the only one who actually believed that.

I like how in Heian era Japan, the nobility used snippets of poetry to communicate ideas (much like "when in Rome--") and you were seen as deeply cringe if you didn't understand the references
And now we just have Dril tweets for that

the thing about incarcerated trans people is that virtually no one will stand up for them & that’s fucking horrific because i literally cannot think of a worse place to be a trans person in america than prison.

A new complaint from ACLU and other human rights groups details how the warden at a Lousiana ICE facility created an unofficial “work program” of manual labor and sexual humiliation for trans men at the facility. This is very hard to read.

Me, a lifelong Radiohead fan: Well, at least Thom Yorke isn't Morrissey.
Me, also a Smiths fan: Fuck.

This is a good skeet but also Radiohead have kinda never had good politics
imagine if someone told you in 2003 that Dave Matthews would have better politics than Radiohead

I hope people understand that the anomaly here aren’t the conditions—the conditions are very typical—the anomaly is that they put a number of documented workers from a high-income country in those conditions. This is how people are treated in custody routinely
korean reporting is nightmarish on the conditions Korean workers were contained in

they desire not love of God, or some platonic Good, or even a secular humanist 'good for all mankind' but only money and the growth of their own image. they serve Mammon, they do the work of Rome, they are children of Mars and not the Lord yet they profane his name every single day of the week

There is no bigger lie in fiction than the smart and charming serial killer. Reality shows time and again that they're mostly of below average intellect, not well liked in the community (if they participate in it at all) and only get away for a while because the cops don't care about the victims.

We cannot move forward or escape this nightmare until mainstream figures finally admit that there are many, many people on the right - including some of its most powerful voices - who are openly seeking violence and tyranny and exploit every situation to move it closer.

Yeah. I used to believe we had to beat him "the right way." But here's the thing: We fucking lost. And because we lost, trans kids get to grow up in fear and millions of Africans lost their AIDS medication and underequipped Ukrainian troops were overrun and at some point, it's like...
I mean, we should recognize the turf we're playing on. Yes, there is no way to distinguish the age of that silhouette. But, also, yes, we should draw every inference we can to paint this kn the harshest light.

I am a hypermasculine and extremely powerful alpha male. As such my greatest fears are seed oils, rainbows, people who don't look like me being on TV, and preventative medicine. I cannot explain any of these fears and consider that to be your fault.

Yeah, sure, full agreement. But the libs cannot figure out that their obsession with gun control is self defeating because they're fixated on the tool and not the ideologically motivated fascist hand that wields it, and it drives me bonkers.

If you can’t ban Nazis without sweeping up high profile Republicans and you can’t ban disinformation without sweeping up high profile Republicans, the issue is Republicans. Not the policy.
Thinking about how the big social media companies got quite good at suppressing ISIS content but when they turned those moderation tools on Neonazis they stopped because "normal" conservative got immediately picked up in the mix too
