And here I was afraid the Air Bud franchise had run out of ideas.

I was wondering when these type of bills would start showing up along side the porn bans.

Yes, this is exactly what you think it is.

They want to arrest women for having bodies. That's it.

And need I remind you what already happens to women who are viewed as property by the state?

I... I can't believe I have to say this, but we cannot rehabilitate Tucker Carlson.

“We need to tell the truth,” Israeli major general Gershon Hacohen, an associate of PM Benjamin Netanyahu, said in a 2019 interview. “Netanyahu’s strategy is to prevent the option of two states, so he is turning Hamas into his closest partner. Openly Hamas is an enemy. Covertly, it’s an ally.”

Bless their little loser hearts, Virginia constitutional amendments first have to pass the full legislature twice before they ever go before voters

I was in the chat when this premiered, and now Sean knows about Sevantha.

Not sure if that's a good thing or not. *lol*

every conservative political complaint comes back to "those people shouldn't count because they disagree with me"

"This is an important thing to think about."

i know a jillion people have made this joke but i can't not

DAMN NEAR KILLED EM

The implicit media consensus is that urban voters should not be able to overrule rural voters, but that rural voters should be able to overrule urban voters, an assumption so axiomatic and unquestionable that nobody even understands they're making it.

[louder, as if that'll improve reception] THE BLUESKY DEVS WOULD BE VERY UPSET BY YOUR JOKES ABOUT VIBE CODING IF THEY COULD LOAD YOUR POSTS

My most liberal idpol radlib take is that I think it's pretty bad that
right wing forces are actively intervening on behalf of the Klan with the full weight of the state legal apparatus

Remember, Democrats have repeatedly advanced measures to ban partisan gerrymandering and Republicans have voted against them time after time.

This is the game Republicans wanted to play. OK, then.

Sara Radovanovitch o @the_cats_meowww X.com Tim Heidecker snitched on my husband to the Feds. While not entirely out of character for an unfunny socialist like Tim, he tried to backtrack and delete his original tweet where he ID'd Jay to the FBI, only after the media ran with it and fans were being critical. It doesn't seem like he had any remorse though, as he went on to write an article on his Substack, justifying his rat behavior because Jay was once "mean" to him at a bar like 25 years ago when Tim was still a tag-a-long newbie in LA. Nevermind that they worked together multiple times over the years after that, little Timmy doesn't forget!

Okay, the funniest response to the news of @theonion.com getting InfoWars is seeing Jay Johnston's wife claiming that Tim Heidecker snitched on her husband to the FBI, as though thousands of people hadn't already been like "Is that Jay Johnston at January 6th?" online before Tim said anything.

Whether or not the two things are actually correlated, it is incredibly funny that Bluesky started experiencing near daily tech fuck ups right after the team started bragging about using vibe coding

Worth noting how many organizations like SPLC neutered themselves and the work that they do, trying to avoid this very moment. Especially since Trump won again. But MAGA was always going to come for them. And eventually, we'll all be targets. No matter how much we tried to remain nonpartisan, etc.

Why is this video not censored? YouTube video by Etymology Nerd

Oh! On Algospeak! you probably don't need to use it now. If you ever actually did. youtube.com/shorts/Z5fvm...

Bernie Sanders, Pete Buttigieg, Ruben Gallego, Chris Coons, Jamie Raskin, Ro Khanna, among many others have endorsed this terrible candidate. It is a collective failure and should be examined for that reason.

I've seen so many people who I love and respect on here regurgitating that 62 million number and it is driving me up a wall.

Trust me on this: You do not want to contribute heat to a gender essentialist anti-porn panic. The actual, real story is horrifying. Lying does it a disservice.

thinking abt this bc there is currently a controversy on tiktok where people are misreading and spreading a statistic from this article, saying that 62 million men were either in or interested in a telegram chat about drugging and raping their female partners when really it was like 1000 people max

The idea Booker is shouting confidently is that the candidates cannot fail—only be failed by ungrateful, shortsighted voters.

That’s uh…not gonna win over many already disillusioned people.

we all know I have no life, so:

So hey that's eugenics

uhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh

another real eye-opener is driving at exactly the speed limit and giving cyclists the correct amount of room and seeing how many drivers behind you go absolutely apeshit

I will pay people to learn the difference between a watsonian vs doylist critique. You'll be like "what was [character's] thinking here" and someone replies "umm well the character isn't real so he doesn't think at all 😏"

Ok that's a different thing. We're discussing in-universe logic. You idiot.

A world where Twitter was never taken seriously is a world where Star Wars Episode IX and Star Trek Picard Season 2 are actually good. I think I'd like to live in that world. Instead I'm stuck in this one.

We need to stop accepting views expressed on Twitter as real opinions. The sooner everyone assumes that the median post on that website is done in bad faith and principally designed to chase clout, the sooner we stop letting these fake controversies take up all the oxygen in the room.
